Joshua 1:2, 5, 9

“Moses my servant is dead. Therefore, the time has come for you to lead these people, the Israelites, across the Jordan River into the land I am giving them.

No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live. For I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will not fail you or abandon you.

This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
