(SEE 13:4)
Be brave and strong! Don't be afraid of the nations on the other side of the Jordan. The LORD your God will always be at your side, and he will never abandon you.
The LORD will lead you into the land. He will always be with you and help you, so don't ever be afraid of your enemies.
But stop worrying! Just remember what the LORD your God did to Egypt and its king.
So don't be frightened when you meet them in battle. The LORD your God is great and fearsome, and he will fight at your side.
