The Appointment of Joshua as Successor

15

And Moses speaketh unto Jehovah, saying,

16

`Jehovah--God of the spirits of all flesh--appoint a man over the company,

17

who goeth out before them, and who cometh in before them, and who taketh them out, and who bringeth them in, and the company of Jehovah is not as sheep which have no shepherd.'

18

And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Take to thee Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and thou hast laid thine hand upon him,

19

and hast caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company, and hast charged him before their eyes,

20

and hast put of thine honour upon him, so that all the company of the sons of Israel do hearken.

21

`And before Eleazar the priest he standeth, and he hath asked for him by the judgment of the Lights before Jehovah; at His word they go out, and at His word they come in; he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even all the company.'

22

And Moses doth as Jehovah hath commanded him, and taketh Joshua, and causeth him to stand before Eleazar the priest, and before all the company,

23

and layeth his hands upon him, and chargeth him, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.
