+----- The Rise Of Joshua; Moses's Words To Joshua Before Dying

In Egypt when fire scrambled
down from the skies like hail,
you shivered, gazing into
my eyes,
a lion cub retreating behind
its mother, jackals hissing.
I told you then, “do not fear.” That
God will save. And since: more plagues,
a grandiose Red-Sea-rescue
from Pharaoh, miracles manifold
in the desert. Now God again calls you
forth from fear- To cross the Jordan
and conquer more Pagans, lead Israel
to repose in Canaan promised; Adam,
Eve fondling the Tree of Life
for the first time, falling asleep on
its trunk- but alone, because Im dying.


------Deuteronomy 31:1-8
Then Moses went out and spoke these words to all Israel: “I am now a hundred and twenty years old and I am no longer able to lead you. The Lord has said to me, ‘You shall not cross the Jordan.’ The Lord your God himself will cross over ahead of you. He will destroy these nations before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will cross over ahead of you, as the Lord said. And the Lord will do to them what he did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, whom he destroyed along with their land. The Lord will deliver them to you, and you must do to them all that I have commanded you. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the presence of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the Lord swore to their ancestors to give them, and you must divide it among them as their inheritance. The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
