'NO MAN SHALL BE ABLE TO STAND BEFORE THEE ALL THE DAYS OF THY LIFE: AS I WAS WITH MOSHE, SO I WILL BE WITH THEE: I WILL NOT FAIL THEE, NOR FORSAKE THEE. BE STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE: FOR THOU SHALT CAUSE THIS PEOPLE TO INHERIT THE LAND, WHICH I SWORE TO THEIR FATHERS TO GIVE THEM. ONLY BE STRONG AND VERY COURAGEOUS, AND OBSERVE TO DO ACCORDING TO ALL THE TORAH, WHICH MOSHE MY SERVANT COMMANDED THEE: TURN NOT FROM IT TO THE RIGHT HAND NOR TO THE LEFT, THAT THOU MAYST PROSPER WHEREVER THOU GOEST. THIS BOOK OF THE TORAH SHALL NOT DEPART OUT OF THY MOUTH; BUT THOU SHALT MEDITATE THEREIN DAY AND NIGHT, THAT THOU MAYST OBSERVE TO DO ACCORDING TO ALL THAT IS WRITTEN IN IT: FOR THEN THOU SHALT MAKE THY WAY PROSPEROUS, AND THEN THOU SHALT HAVE GOOD SUCCESS. HAVE NOT I COMMANDED THEE? BE STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE; BE NOT AFRAID, NEITHER BE THOU DISMAYED: FOR THE L~RD THY G~D IS WITH THEE WHEREVER THOU GOEST.' YEHOSHUA 1. ENDING TO DWELL ON A NEW BEGINNING.
