5. And when Jehovah giveth them up before you, ye shall do to them according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.

6. Be strong and courageous, fear them not, neither be afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God he it is that goeth with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee.

7. And Moses called to Joshua, and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and courageous, for thou must go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

8. And Jehovah, he it is that goeth before thee: he will be with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.

9. And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and to all the elders of Israel.

10. And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, at the set time of the year of release, at the feast of tabernacles,

11. when all Israel cometh to appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he will choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their ears.

12. Gather the people together, the men, and the women, and the children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear Jehovah your God and take heed to do all the words of this law;

13. and that their children who do not know it may hear it and learn, that they may fear Jehovah your God as long as ye live in the land, whereunto ye pass over the Jordan to possess it.

14. And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, the days are near for thee to die; call Joshua, and present yourselves at the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves at the tent of meeting.

15. And Jehovah appeared at the tent in the pillar of cloud; and the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance to the tent.

16. And Jehovah said to Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the strange gods of the land into which they enter, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
