Joshua 1
Jubilee Bible 2000
1 ¶ Now after the death of Moses, the slave of the LORD, it came to pass that the LORD spoke unto Joshua, the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,
2 Moses, my slave, is dead; now, therefore, arise, pass this Jordan, thou and all this people, unto the land which I give to the sons of Israel.
3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your borders.
5 No one shall be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee; I will not fail thee nor forsake thee.
6 Be strong and of a good courage; for thou shalt cause this people to inherit the land as an inheritance, which I swore unto their fathers to give them.
7 Only be thou strong and very courageous that thou mayest keep and do according to all the law, which Moses my slave commanded thee; turn not from it to the right hand or to the left that thou may be prospered in all the things that thou doest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate therein day and night that thou may keep and do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy way to prosper, and then thou shalt understand everything.
9 See that I command thee to be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for I, the LORD thy God, am with thee wherever thou goest.
10 ¶ Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
11 Pass through the camp and command the people, saying, Prepare food; for within three days ye shall pass this Jordan, to enter in to inherit the land, which the LORD your God gives you to inherit.
12 Also to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to half the tribe of Manasseh, Joshua spoke, saying,
13 Remember the word which Moses, the slave of the LORD, commanded you, saying, The LORD your God has given you rest and has given you this land.
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your beasts shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan; but ye, all the mighty men of valour, shall pass before your brethren armed and help them
15 until the LORD has given your brethren rest, as he has given you and they also inherit the land which the LORD your God gives them; then ye shall return unto the land of your inheritance and inherit it, which Moses the LORD’s slave has given you on this side of the Jordan toward the sunrising.
16 ¶ Then they answered Joshua, saying, All that thou hast commanded us we will do, and wherever thou dost send us, we will go.
17 According as we hearkened unto Moses in all things, so will we hearken unto thee; only let the LORD thy God be with thee, as he was with Moses.
18 Whoever rebels against thy commandment and will not hearken unto thy words in all that thou doest command him, let him die; only be strong and of a good courage.
Josua 1
Svenska Folkbibeln
Gud befaller Josua att erövra Kanaan
1 När Herrens tjänare Mose var död, sade Herren till Josua, Nuns son, Moses tjänare: 2 "Min tjänare Mose är död. Stå nu upp och gå över Jordan, du och allt detta folk, in i det land som jag skall ge åt Israels barn. 3 Varje plats där ni sätter er fot har jag givit er, som jag lovade Mose. 4 Från öknen till Libanon och ända till den stora floden Eufrat, över hela hetiternas land och till Stora havet västerut, skall ert område sträcka sig. 5 Ingen skall kunna stå dig emot i alla dina livsdagar. Så som jag har varit med Mose, så skall jag också vara med dig. Jag skall inte lämna dig eller överge dig. 6 Var stark och frimodig, ty du skall som arv åt detta folk fördela landet som jag med ed har lovat deras fäder att ge dem. 7 Ja, var stark och mycket frimodig så att du håller fast vid och följer all den undervisning som min tjänare Mose har givit dig. Vik inte av från den vare sig till höger eller till vänster, så skall du ha framgång vart du än går. 8 Låt inte denna lagbok vara skild från din mun. Tänk på den både dag och natt, så att du håller fast vid och följer allt som är skrivet i den. Då skall du lyckas i det du företar dig, och då skall du ha framgång. 9 Har jag inte befallt dig att vara stark och frimodig? Var då inte förskräckt eller förfärad, ty Herren, din Gud, är med dig vart än du går."
Josua ger befallningar till folket
10 Josua befallde folkets tillsyningsmän och sade: 11 "Gå igenom lägret och säg till folket: Gör i ordning färdkost åt er. Ty om tre dagar skall ni gå över Jordan för att komma in i och inta det land som Herren, er Gud, har gett er till besittning."
12 Men till rubeniterna, gaditerna och ena hälften av Manasse stam sade Josua: 13 "Kom ihåg det som Herrens tjänare Mose befallde er, när han sade: Herren, er Gud, skall låta er komma till ro och ge er detta land. 14 Era hustrur, era små barn och er boskap skall stanna kvar i det land som Mose har gett er här på andra sidan Jordan. Men ni själva, alla tappra stridsmän, skall dra i väg beväpnade i spetsen för era bröder och hjälpa dem, 15 tills Herren har låtit era bröder komma till ro liksom ni, och de också har tagit i besittning det land som Herren, er Gud, ger dem. Sedan kan ni vända tillbaka till det land som skall vara er besittning. Ni skall då ta i besittning det land som Herrens tjänare Mose har gett er här på andra sidan Jordan, på östra sidan."
16 De svarade Josua: "Allt som du har befallt oss skall vi göra, och vart du än sänder oss skall vi gå. 17 Som vi har lytt Mose i allt, skall vi också lyda dig. Må endast Herren, din Gud, vara med dig, så som han var med Mose. 18 Var och en som trotsar dina befallningar och inte lyder dina ord, vad du än befaller honom, han skall dödas. Var stark och frimodig."
Joshua 1
King James Version
1 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,
2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
9 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.
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
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.
12 And to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to half the tribe of Manasseh, spake Joshua, saying,
13 Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, The Lord your God hath given you rest, and hath given you this land.
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side Jordan; but ye shall pass before your brethren armed, all the mighty men of valour, and help them;
15 Until the Lord have given your brethren rest, as he hath given you, and they also have possessed the land which the Lord your God giveth them: then ye shall return unto the land of your possession, and enjoy it, which Moses the Lord's servant gave you on this side Jordan toward the sunrising.
16 And they answered Joshua, saying, All that thou commandest us we will do, and whithersoever thou sendest us, we will go.
17 According as we hearkened unto Moses in all things, so will we hearken unto thee: only the Lord thy God be with thee, as he was with Moses.
18 Whosoever he be that doth rebel against thy commandment, and will not hearken unto thy words in all that thou commandest him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of a good courage.
