: 1 . Now after <0310 >achar > the death <4194 maveth > of Moses <4872 Mosheh > the servant <5650 <ebed > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > it came <1961 hayah > to pass , that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <0559 >amar > unto Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > the son <1121 ben > of Nun <5126 Nuwn > , Moses <4872 Mosheh > minister <8334 sharath > , saying <0559 >amar > ,
: 2 Moses <4872 Mosheh > my servant <5650 <ebed > is dead <4191 muwth > ; now <6258 <attah > therefore arise <6965 quwm > , go <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this Jordan <3383 Yarden > , thou , and all <3605 kol > this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > , unto the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > I do give <5414 nathan > to them , [ even ] to the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > .
: 3 Every <3605 kol > place <4725 maqowm > that the sole <3709 kaph > of your foot <7272 regel > shall tread <1869 darak > upon , that have I given <5414 nathan > unto you , as I said <1696 dabar > unto Moses <4872 Mosheh > .
: 4 From the wilderness <4057 midbar > and this <2088 zeh > Lebanon <3844 L@banown > even unto the great <1419 gadowl > river <5104 nahar > , the river <5104 nahar > Euphrates <6578 P@rath > , all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of the Hittites <2850 Chittiy > , and unto the great <1419 gadowl > sea <3220 yam > toward the going <3996 mabow> > down <3996 mabow> > of the sun <8121 shemesh > , shall be your coast <1366 g@buwl > .
: 5 There shall not any man <0376 >iysh > be able <3320 yatsab > to stand <3320 yatsab > before <6440 paniym > thee all <3605 kol > the days <3117 yowm > of thy life <2416 chay > : as I was with Moses <4872 Mosheh > , [ so ] I will be with thee : I will not fail <7503 raphah > thee , nor <3808 lo> > forsake <5800 <azab > thee .
: 6 Be strong <2388 chazaq > and of a good courage <0553 >amats > : for unto this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > shalt thou divide for an inheritance <5157 nachal > the land <0776 >erets > , which <0834 >aher > I sware <7650 shaba< > unto their fathers <1> to give <5414 nathan > them .
: 7 Only <7535 raq > be thou strong <2388 chazaq > and very <3966 m@<od > courageous <0553 >amats > , that thou mayest observe <8104 shamar > to do <6213 <asah > according to all <3605 kol > the law <8451 towrah > , which <0834 >aher > Moses <4872 Mosheh > my servant <5650 <ebed > commanded <6680 tsavah > thee : turn <5493 cuwr > not from it [ to ] the right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > or [ to ] the left <8040 s@mo>wl > , that thou mayest prosper <7919 sakal > whithersoever thou goest <3212 yalak > .
: 8 This <2088 zeh > book <5612 cepher > of the law <8451 towrah > shall not depart <4185 muwsh > out of thy mouth <6310 peh > ; but thou shalt meditate <1897 hagah > therein day <3119 yowmam > and night <3915 layil > , that thou mayest observe <8104 shamar > to do <6213 <asah > according to all <3605 kol > that is written <3789 kathab > therein : for then <0227 >az > thou shalt make thy way <1870 derek > prosperous <6743 tsalach > , and then <0227 >az > thou shalt have good success <7919 sakal > .
: 9 Have not I commanded <6680 tsavah > thee ? Be strong <2388 chazaq > and of a good courage <0553 >amats > ; be not afraid <6206 <arats > , neither <0408 >al > be thou dismayed <2865 chathath > : for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > [ is ] with thee whithersoever thou goest <3212 yalak > .
: 10 . Then Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > commanded <6680 tsavah > the officers <7860 shoter > of the people <5971 <am > , saying <0559 >amar > ,
: 11 Pass <5674 <abar > through <7130 qereb > the host <4264 machaneh > , and command <6680 tsavah > the people <5971 <am > , saying <0559 >amar > , Prepare <3559 kuwn > you victuals <6720 tseydah > ; for within <5750 <owd > three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm > ye shall pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this <2088 zeh > Jordan <3383 Yarden > , to go <0935 bow> > in to possess <3423 yarash > the land <0776 >erets > , which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > giveth <5414 nathan > you to possess <3423 yarash > it .
: 12 And to the Reubenites <7206 R@>uwbeniy > , and to the Gadites <1425 Gadiy > , and to half <2677 chetsiy > the tribe <7626 shebet > of Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh > , spake <0559 >amar > Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > , saying <0559 >amar > ,
: 13 Remember <2142 zakar > the word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > Moses <4872 Mosheh > the servant <5650 <ebed > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > commanded <6680 tsavah > you , saying <0559 >amar > , The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > hath given you rest <5117 nuwach > , and hath given <5414 nathan > you this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > .
: 14 Your wives <0802 >ishshah > , your little <2945 taph > ones , and your cattle <4735 miqneh > , shall remain <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > Moses <4872 Mosheh > gave <5414 nathan > you on this side <5676 <eber > Jordan <3383 Yarden > ; but ye shall pass <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > your brethren <0251 >ach > armed <2571 chamush > , all <3605 kol > the mighty <1368 gibbowr > men of valour <2428 chayil > , and help <5826 <azar > them ;
: 15 Until <5704 <ad > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have given your brethren <0251 >ach > rest <5117 nuwach > , as [ he hath given ] you , and they also <1571 gam > have possessed <3423 yarash > the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > giveth <5414 nathan > them : then ye shall return <7725 shuwb > unto the land <0776 >erets > of your possession <3425 y@rushah > , and enjoy <3423 yarash > it , which <0834 >aher > Moses <4872 Mosheh > the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > servant <5650 <ebed > gave <5414 nathan > you on this side <5676 <eber > Jordan <3383 Yarden > toward the sunrising .
: 16 . And they answered <6030 <anah > Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > , saying <0559 >amar > , All <3605 kol > that thou commandest <6680 tsavah > us we will do <6213 <asah > , and whithersoever thou sendest <7971 shalach > us , we will go <3212 yalak > .
: 17 According as we hearkened <8085 shama< > unto Moses <4872 Mosheh > in all <3605 kol > things , so <3651 ken > will we hearken <8085 shama< > unto thee : only <7535 raq > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > be with thee , as he was with Moses <4872 Mosheh > .
: 18 Whosoever [ he be ] that doth rebel <4784 marah > against thy commandment <6310 peh > , and will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto thy words <1697 dabar > in all <3605 kol > that thou commandest <6680 tsavah > him , he shall be put to death <4191 muwth > : only <7535 raq > be strong <2388 chazaq > and of a good courage <0553 >amats > .
: Joshua 2
: 1 . And Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > the son <1121 ben > of Nun <5126 Nuwn > sent <7971 shalach > out of Shittim <7851 Shittiym > two <8147 sh@nayim > men <0582 >enowsh > to spy <7270 ragal > secretly <2791 cheresh > , saying <0559 >amar > , Go <3212 yalak > view <7200 ra>ah > the land <0776 >erets > , even Jericho <3405 Y@riychow > . And they went <3212 yalak > , and came <0935 bow> > into an harlot s <2181 zanah > house <1004 bayith > , named <8034 shem > Rahab <7343 Rachab > , and lodged <7901 shakab > there <8033 sham > .
: 2 And it was told <0559 >amar > the king <4428 melek > of Jericho <3405 Y@riychow > , saying <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > , there came <0935 bow> > men <0582 >enowsh > in hither to night <3915 layil > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to search <2658 chaphar > out the country <0776 >erets > .
: 3 And the king <4428 melek > of Jericho <3405 Y@riychow > sent <7971 shalach > unto Rahab <7343 Rachab > , saying <0559 >amar > , Bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > the men <0582 >enowsh > that are come <0935 bow> > to thee , which <0834 >aher > are entered <0935 bow> > into thine house <1004 bayith > : for they be come <0935 bow> > to search <2658 chaphar > out all <3605 kol > the country <0776 >erets > .
: 4 And the woman <0802 >ishshah > took <3947 laqach > the two <8147 sh@nayim > men <0582 >enowsh > , and hid <6845 tsaphan > them , and said <0559 >amar > thus <3651 ken > , There came <0935 bow> > men <0582 >enowsh > unto me , but I wist <3045 yada< > not whence <0370 >aiyn > they [ were ] :
: 5 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass [ about the time ] of shutting <5462 cagar > of the gate <8179 sha<ar > , when it was dark <2822 choshek > , that the men <0582 >enowsh > went <3318 yatsa> > out : whither <0575 >an > the men <0582 >enowsh > went <1980 halak > I wot <3045 yada< > not : pursue <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > them quickly <4118 maher > ; for ye shall overtake <5381 nasag > them .
: 6 But she had brought <5927 <alah > them up to the roof <1406 gag > of the house , and hid <2934 taman > them with the stalks <6086 <ets > of flax <6593 pishteh > , which she had laid in order <6186 <arak > upon the roof <1406 gag > .
: 7 And the men <0582 >enowsh > pursued <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > them the way <1870 derek > to Jordan <3383 Yarden > unto the fords <4569 ma<abar > : and as soon <0834 >aher > as they which <0834 >aher > pursued <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > them were gone <3318 yatsa> > out , they shut <5462 cagar > the gate <8179 sha<ar > .
: 8 . And before <2962 terem > they were laid <7901 shakab > down <7901 shakab > , she came <5927 <alah > up unto them upon the roof <1406 gag > ;
: 9 And she said <0559 >amar > unto the men <0582 >enowsh > , I know <3045 yada< > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath given <5414 nathan > you the land <0776 >erets > , and that your terror <0367 >eymah > is fallen <5307 naphal > upon us , and that all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the land <0776 >erets > faint <4127 muwg > because <6440 paniym > of you .
: 10 For we have heard <8085 shama< > how <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > dried <3001 yabesh > up the water <4325 mayim > of the Red <5488 cuwph > sea <3220 yam > for you , when ye came <3318 yatsa> > out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ; and what <0834 >aher > ye did <6213 <asah > unto the two <8147 sh@nayim > kings <4428 melek > of the Amorites <0567 >Emoriy > , that [ were ] on the other <5676 <eber > side <5676 <eber > Jordan <3383 Yarden > , Sihon <5511 Ciychown > and Og <5747 <Owg > , whom ye utterly destroyed <2763 charam > .
: 11 And as soon as we had heard <8085 shama< > [ these things ] , our hearts <3824 lebab > did melt <4549 macac > , neither <3808 lo> > did there remain <6965 quwm > any more <5750 <owd > courage <7307 ruwach > in any man <0376 >iysh > , because <6440 paniym > of you : for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > , he [ is ] God <0430 >elohiym > in heaven <8064 shamayim > above <4605 ma<al > , and in earth <0776 >erets > beneath <8478 tachath > .
: 12 Now <6258 <attah > therefore , I pray <4994 na> > you , swear <7650 shaba< > unto me by the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , since <3588 kiy > I have shewed <6213 <asah > you kindness <2617 checed > , that ye will also <1571 gam > shew <6213 <asah > kindness <2617 checed > unto my father s <1> house <1004 bayith > , and give <5414 nathan > me a true <0571 >emeth > token <0226 >owth > :
: 13 And [ that ] ye will save <2421 chayah > alive <2421 chayah > my father <1> , and my mother <0517 >em > , and my brethren <0251 >ach > , and my sisters <0269 >achowth > , and all <3605 kol > that they have , and deliver <5337 natsal > our lives <5315 nephesh > from death <4194 maveth > .
: 14 And the men <0582 >enowsh > answered <0559 >amar > her , Our life <5315 nephesh > for yours , if <0518 >im > ye utter <5046 nagad > not this <2088 zeh > our business <1697 dabar > . And it shall be , when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath given <5414 nathan > us the land <0776 >erets > , that we will deal <6213 <asah > kindly <2617 checed > and truly <0571 >emeth > with thee .
: 15 Then she let <3381 yarad > them down <3381 yarad > by a cord <2256 chebel > through <1157 b@<ad > the window <2474 challown > : for her house <1004 bayith > [ was ] upon the town <7023 qiyr > wall <2346 chowmah > , and she dwelt <3427 yashab > upon the wall <2346 chowmah > .
: 16 And she said <0559 >amar > unto them , Get <3212 yalak > you to the mountain <2022 har > , lest <6435 pen > the pursuers <7291 radaph > meet <6293 paga< > you ; and hide <2247 chabah > yourselves there <8033 sham > three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm > , until <5704 <ad > the pursuers <7291 radaph > be returned <7725 shuwb > : and afterward <0310 >achar > may ye go <3212 yalak > your way <1870 derek > .
: 17 And the men <0582 >enowsh > said <0559 >amar > unto her , We [ will be ] blameless <5355 naqiy > of this <2088 zeh > thine oath <7621 sh@buw<ah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast made us swear <7650 shaba< > .
: 18 Behold <2009 hinneh > , [ when ] we come <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 >erets > , thou shalt bind <7194 qashar > this <2088 zeh > line <8615 tiqvah > of scarlet <8144 shaniy > thread <2339 chuwt > in the window <2474 challown > which <0834 >aher > thou didst let <3381 yarad > us down <3381 yarad > by : and thou shalt bring <0622 >acaph > thy father <1> , and thy mother <0517 >em > , and thy brethren <0251 >ach > , and all <3605 kol > thy father s <1> household <1004 bayith > , home <1004 bayith > unto thee .
: 19 And it shall be , [ that ] whosoever shall go <3318 yatsa> > out of the doors <1817 deleth > of thy house <1004 bayith > into the street <2351 chuwts > , his blood <1818 dam > [ shall be ] upon his head <7218 ro>sh > , and we [ will be ] guiltless <5355 naqiy > : and whosoever shall be with thee in the house <1004 bayith > , his blood <1818 dam > [ shall be ] on our head <7218 ro>sh > , if <0518 >im > [ any ] hand <3027 yad > be upon him .
: 20 And if <0518 >im > thou utter <5046 nagad > this <2088 zeh > our business <1697 dabar > , then we will be quit <5355 naqiy > of thine oath <7621 sh@buw<ah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast made us to swear <7650 shaba< > .
: 21 And she said <0559 >amar > , According unto your words <1697 dabar > , so <3651 ken > [ be ] it . And she sent <7971 shalach > them away , and they departed <3212 yalak > : and she bound <7194 qashar > the scarlet <8144 shaniy > line <8515 T@la>ssar > in the window <2474 challown > .
: 22 . And they went <3212 yalak > , and came <0935 bow> > unto the mountain <2022 har > , and abode <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm > , until <5704 <ad > the pursuers <7291 radaph > were returned <7725 shuwb > : and the pursuers <7291 radaph > sought <1245 baqash > [ them ] throughout all <3605 kol > the way <1870 derek > , but found <4672 matsa> > [ them ] not .
: 23 So the two <8147 sh@nayim > men <0582 >enowsh > returned <7725 shuwb > , and descended <3381 yarad > from the mountain <2022 har > , and passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > , and came <0935 bow> > to Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > the son <1121 ben > of Nun <5126 Nuwn > , and told <5608 caphar > him all <3605 kol > [ things ] that befell <4672 matsa> > them :
: 24 And they said <0559 >amar > unto Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > , Truly <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath delivered <5414 nathan > into our hands <3027 yad > all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > ; for even <1571 gam > all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the country <0776 >erets > do faint <4127 muwg > because <6440 paniym > of us .
: Joshua 3
: 1 . And Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > rose <7925 shakam > early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > ; and they removed <5265 naca< > from Shittim <7851 Shittiym > , and came <0935 bow> > to Jordan <3383 Yarden > , he and all <3605 kol > the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , and lodged <3885 luwn > there <8033 sham > before <2962 terem > they passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > .

: 5 And Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > said <0559 >amar > unto the people <5971 <am > , Sanctify <6942 qadash > yourselves : for to morrow <4279 machar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will do <6213 <asah > wonders <6381 pala> > among <7130 qereb > you .
: 6 And Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > spake <0559 >amar > unto the priests <3548 kohen > , saying <0559 >amar > , Take <5375 nasa> > up the ark <0727 >arown > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth > , and pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > the people <5971 <am > . And they took <5375 nasa> > up the ark <0727 >arown > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth > , and went <3212 yalak > before <6440 paniym > the people <5971 <am > .

And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Joshua <3091 Y@howshuwa< > , This <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > will I begin <2490 chalal > to magnify <1431 gadal > thee in the sight <5869 <ayin > of all <3605 kol > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , that they may know <3045 yada< > that , as I was with Moses <4872 Mosheh > , [ so ] I will be with thee .

And the city <5892 <iyr > shall be accursed <2764 cherem > , [ even ] it , and all <3605 kol > that [ are ] therein , to the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : only <7535 raq > Rahab <7343 Rachab > the harlot <2181 zanah > shall live <2421 chayah > , she and all <3605 kol > that [ are ] with her in the house <1004 bayith > , because <3588 kiy > she hid <2244> the messengers <4397 mal>ak > that we sent <7971 shalach > .
