1. After Moses, the servant of the Lord, had died, the Lord said to Moses’ aide Joshua, son of Nun:
2. Moses my servant is dead. So now, you and the whole people with you, prepare to cross the Jordan to the land that I will give the Israelites.
3. Every place where you set foot I have given you, as I promised Moses.
4. All the land of the Hittites, from the wilderness and the Lebanon east to the great river Euphrates and west to the Great Sea, will be your territory.
