Joshua

Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,

After Moses, God's faithful servant, passed away, God turned to Joshua, Moses' right-hand man, and spoke to him, saying,

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Haven't I told you? Be brave and confident; don't let fear or worry consume you. Remember, wherever you go, God is always with you.

So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour.

Joshua, brimming with courage, led his brave warriors up from Gilgal, their hearts pounding with anticipation.

And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.

Joshua responded, "If you believe you're a mighty group, then venture into the forested lands. Make your own space among the Perizzites and the giants, if you find Mount Ephraim too confining."
