16 Let Jehovah, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the assembly,
17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the assembly of Jehovah be not as sheep that have no shepherd.
18 And Jehovah said to Moses, Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and thou shalt lay thy hand upon him;
19 and thou shalt set him before Eleazar the priest, and before the whole assembly; and give him commandment before their eyes.
20 And thou shalt put of thine honour upon him, that the whole assembly of the children of Israel may obey him.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him, by the judgment of the Urim before Jehovah: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, he, and all the children of Israel with him, even the whole assembly.
22 And Moses did as Jehovah had commanded him; and he took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before the whole assembly.
