6The Lord our God said to us in Horeb, You have been long enough in this mountain:
7Make a move now, and go on your way into the hill-country of the Amorites and the places near it, in the Arabah and the hill-country and in the lowlands and in the South and by the seaside, all the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
8See, all the land is before you: go in and take for yourselves the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and to their seed after them.
9At that time I said to you, I am not able to undertake the care of you by myself;
10The Lord your God has given you increase, and now you are like the stars of heaven in number.
11May the Lord, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times greater in number than you are, and give you his blessing as he has said!
12How is it possible for me by myself to be responsible for you, and undertake the weight of all your troubles and your arguments?
