³⁸ But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁴ And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot's house, house, named Rahab, and lodged there.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We be come from a far country: now therefore make ye a league with us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And they said unto him, From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the LORD thy God: for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the LORD your God giveth you to possess it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrising, sunrising, from Baal-gad under mount Hermon unto the entering into Hamath.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ So the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun, and told him all things that befell them:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the congregation for judgment, and until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass a long time after that the LORD had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua waxed old and stricken in age.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And Joshua called for all Israel, and for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said unto them, I am old and stricken in age:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And I brought your fathers out of Egypt: and ye came unto the sea; and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and horsemen unto the Red sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And when they cried unto the LORD, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea upon them, and covered them; and your eyes have seen what I have done in Egypt: and ye dwelt in the wilderness a long season.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other side Jordan; and they fought with you: and I gave them into your hand, that ye might possess their land; and I destroyed them from before you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about it once: once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and laid them out before the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And all the people, even the people of war that were with him, went up, and drew nigh, and came before the city, and pitched on the north side of Ai: now there was a valley between them and Ai.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand: and they entered into the city, and took it, and hasted and set the city on fire.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And the children of Israel journeyed, and came unto their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-jearim.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And stay ye not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁵ There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And when they came unto the borders of Jordan, that are in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to see to.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And they came unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and they spake with them, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And, behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all good things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And ye went over Jordan, and came unto Jericho: and the men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I delivered them into your hand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a Beth-shemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered the kine a burnt offering unto the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beer-sheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the gate of the city.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Which came with Zerubbabel: Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, Baanah. The number of the men of the people of Israel:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the people of Israel was this;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
