1. When Moses had finished speaking these words to all Israel,
2. he said to them, I am now one hundred and twenty years old and am no longer able to go out and come in; besides, the Lord has said to me, Do not cross this Jordan.
3. It is the Lord, your God, who will cross before you; he will destroy these nations before you, that you may dispossess them. (It is Joshua who will cross before you, as the Lord promised.)
4. The Lord will deal with them just as he dealt with Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, and with their country, when he destroyed them.
5. When, therefore, the Lord delivers them up to you, you shall deal with them according to the whole commandment which I have given you.
