MSG

NIV

1 After the death of Moses the servant of God, God spoke to Joshua, Moses' assistant:
1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ aide:
2 "Moses my servant is dead. Get going. Cross this Jordan River, you and all the people. Cross to the country I'm giving to the People of Israel.
2 “Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them—to the Israelites.
3 I'm giving you every square inch of the land you set your foot on - just as I promised Moses.
3 I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon east to the Great River, the Euphrates River - all the Hittite country - and then west to the Great Sea. It's all yours.
4 Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates—all the Hittite country—to the Mediterranean Sea in the west.
5 All your life, no one will be able to hold out against you. In the same way I was with Moses, I'll be with you. I won't give up on you; I won't leave you.
5 No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
6 Strength! Courage! You are going to lead this people to inherit the land that I promised to give their ancestors.
6 Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.
