The Appointment of Joshua as Successor

15

Then Moses spake vnto the Lord, saying,

16

Let the Lord God of the spirits of all flesh appoint a man ouer the Congregation,

17

Who may goe out and in before them, and leade them out and in, that the Congregation of the Lord be not as sheepe, which haue not a shepheard.

18

And the Lord said vnto Moses, Take thee Ioshua the sonne of Nun, in whom is the Spirite, and put thine handes vpon him,

19

And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation, and giue him a charge in their sight.

20

And giue him of thy glory, that all the Congregation of ye children of Israel may obey.

21

And he shall stande before Eleazar the Priest, who shall aske counsell for him by the iudgement of Vrim before the Lord: at his worde they shall goe out, and at his worde they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him and all the Congregation.

22

So Moses did as the Lord had commanded him, and he tooke Ioshua, and set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation.

23

Then he put his handes vpon him, and gaue him a charge, as the Lord had spoken by the hand of Moses.
