Deuteronomy 3:18-22

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ “And I charged you all at that time when I said, “Yahweh has given you—to all of you—this land to possess. All the warriors^[a] shall cross over, ready to fight, before your brothers, the Israelites.^{[b] 19} Only your wives and your little children and your livestock (I know that you have much livestock)^[c] must stay in your towns that I have given you, ²⁰ until Yahweh shall give rest to your brothers as he did to you, and also they take possession of the land that Yahweh your God is giving to them beyond the Jordan; then they may return, each one to his possession that I have given to them. ²¹ And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, ‘Your eyes see all that Yahweh your God has done to these two kings; so Yahweh will do to all of the kingdoms where you are about to cross over to. ²² You shall not fear them, for Yahweh your God is the one fighting for you.
