Joshua 1:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Only be thou strong, and [a]of a most valiant courage, that thou mayest observe and do according to all the Law which Moses my servant hath commanded thee: (A)thou shalt not turn away from it to the right hand, nor to the left, that thou mayest [b]prosper whithersoever thou goest.
8 Let not this book of the Law depart out of thy mouth, but meditate therein day and [c]night, that thou mayest observe and do according to all that is written therein: for then shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou [d]have good success.
9 Have not I commanded thee, saying, Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be discouraged? for I the Lord thy God will be with thee whithersoever thou goest.
