17Which may goe out before them, and which may goe in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in, that the Congregation of the Lord bee not as sheepe which haue no shepheard. 18¶ And the Lord saide vnto Moses, Take thee Ioshua the sonne of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand vpon him. 19And set him before Eleazar the Priest, and before all the Congregation: and giue him a charge in their sight. 20And thou shalt put some of thine honour vpon him, that all the Congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient. 21And he shall stand before Eleazar the Priest, who shall aske counsell for him, after the iudgement of Urim before the Lord: at his word shal they goe out, and at his word they shal come in, both he, and al the children of Israel with him, euen all the Congregation.
