Numbers 27:12-23

Common English Bible CEB

12 The LORD said to Moses, "Go up this mountain, Abarim, and look at the land that I've given to the Israelites.

13 You will see it and then join your ancestors just as Aaron your brother has,

14 because in the Zin desert, when the community confronted you, you rebelled against my command to show them my holiness by means of the water." (These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the Zin desert.)

15 Moses spoke to the LORD:

16 "Let the LORD, the God of all living things, appoint someone over the community

17 who will go out before them and return before them, someone who will lead them out and bring them back, so that the LORD's community won't be like sheep without their shepherd."

18 The LORD said to Moses, "Take Joshua, Nun's son, a man who has the spirit, and lay your hand on him.

19 Place him before Eleazar the priest and the entire community and commission him before them.

20 You will give him some of your power so that the entire Israelite community may obey.

21 He will stand before Eleazar the priest, who will determine for him the decision by lot before the LORD. At his command, he and all the Israelites with him, the entire community, will go out, and at his command they will return."

22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua and placed him before Eleazar the priest and the entire community.

23 He laid his hands on him and commissioned him as the LORD had spoken through Moses.

New International Version NIV

12 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go up this mountain in the Abarim Range and see the land I have given the Israelites.

13 After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron was,

14 for when the community rebelled at the waters in the Desert of Zin, both of you disobeyed my command to honor me as holy before their eyes.” (These were the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)

15 Moses said to the LORD,

16 “May the LORD, the God who gives breath to all living things, appoint someone over this community

17 to go out and come in before them, one who will lead them out and bring them in, so the LORD’s people will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”

18 So the LORD said to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit of leadership, and lay your hand on him.

19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire assembly and commission him in their presence.

20 Give him some of your authority so the whole Israelite community will obey him.

21 He is to stand before Eleazar the priest, who will obtain decisions for him by inquiring of the Urim before the LORD. At his command he and the entire community of the Israelites will go out, and at his command they will come in.”

22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole assembly.

23 Then he laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD instructed through Moses.
