What is going to happen to us? Our brothers have drained away our courage by describing people who are more numerous and taller than we are, and great cities whose defenses appear to be as high as heaven itself! Moreover, they said they saw Anakites there.”

to dispossess nations greater and stronger than you and brought you here this day to give you their land as your property.

then he will drive out all these nations ahead of you, and you will dispossess nations greater and stronger than you.

For you are about to cross the Jordan to possess the land the LORD your God is giving you, and you will possess and inhabit it.

“ Go through the camp and command the people,‘ Prepare your supplies, for within three days you will cross the Jordan River and begin the conquest of the land the LORD your God is ready to hand over to you.’”

When the LORD your God brings you to the land that you are going to occupy and forces out many nations before you– Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, seven nations more numerous and powerful than you–

The people went up from the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month and camped in Gilgal on the eastern border of Jericho.

At that time I instructed you as follows:“ The LORD your God has given you this land for your possession. You warriors are to cross over before your fellow Israelites equipped for battle.

the water coming downstream toward them stopped flowing. It piled up far upstream at Adam( the city near Zarethan); there was no water at all flowing to the sea of the Arabah( the Salt Sea). The people crossed the river opposite Jericho.

Joshua told the priests,“ Pick up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people.” So they picked up the ark of the covenant and went ahead of the people.

But the inhabitants are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.The Amalekites live in the land of the Negev; the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the hill country; and the Canaanites live by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan.”Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses, saying,“ Let us go up and occupy it, for we are well able to conquer it.”But the men who had gone up with him said,“ We are not able to go up against these people, because they are stronger than we are!”Then they presented the Israelites with a discouraging report of the land they had investigated, saying,“ The land that we passed through to investigate is a land that devours its inhabitants. All the people we saw there are of great stature.We even saw the Nephilim there( the descendants of Anak came from the Nephilim), and we seemed liked grasshoppers both to ourselves and to them.”

So when the people left their tents to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant went ahead of them.

When they went up through the Negev, they came to Hebron where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, descendants of Anak, were living.( Now Hebron had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

When you cross the Jordan River to the land the LORD your God is giving you, you must erect great stones and cover them with plaster.

Joshua told them,“ Go in front of the ark of the LORD your God to the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to put a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the Israelite tribes.
