15. And Mosheh spoke to יהוה, saying,
16. “Let יהוה, the Elohim of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
17. who goes out before them and comes in before them, who leads them out and brings them in, so that the congregation of יהוה be not like sheep without a shepherd.”
18. And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Take Yehoshua son of Nun with you, a man in whom is the Spirit. And you shall lay your hand on him,
19. and shall set him before El‛azar the priest and before all the congregation, and give him charge before their eyes,
20. and shall put some of your esteem upon him, so that all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl obey him.
