Kepada Yosua bin Nun diberi-Nya perintah, firman-Nya: "Kuatkan dan teguhkanlah hatimu, sebab engkau akan membawa orang Israel ke negeri yang Kujanjikan dengan sumpah kepada mereka, dan Aku akan menyertai engkau."
Maka diberikan-Nya perintah-Nya kepada Yusak bin Nun, firman-Nya: Hendaklah engkau perwira dan perkasa! karena engkau akan membawa bani Israel masuk ke dalam negeri yang telah Kujanji kepadanya pakai sumpah, maka Akupun menyertai akan dikau kelak!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge,.... It may be a question who gave this charge, the Lord or Moses; according to the connection of the words with the preceding, it seems to be the latter; for the immediate antecedent to the relative he is Moses, and so the Septuagint interpreters understand it; but then they are obliged to read some following clauses different from the original, as, instead of "I swear", they read "the Lord sware"; and the last clause they read, "and he shall be with thee"; but Aben Ezra gives the same sense without departing from the common and genuine reading, supposing that Moses gave the charge in the name and by the authority of the Lord; his words are,
"he gave charge by the commandment of the Lord, therefore he saith, "which I sware unto them";''
but it seems best to understand this of the Lord himself, since he ordered Moses and Joshua to present themselves before him, that he might give the latter a charge, Deuteronomy 31:14; and the language of the following clauses best agrees with him:
and said, be strong and of a good courage; Deuteronomy 31:14- :;
Deuteronomy 31:14- :;
for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them; Deuteronomy 31:14- :;
and I will be with thee; Deuteronomy 31:14- :; the Targum of Jonathan is,
"my Word shall be thy help.''
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The transaction recorded in these verses may be regarded as the solemn inauguration of Joshua to the office to which he had some time before Numbers 27:22 been called, and his recognition in it by God, which were manifested by his being summoned into the tabernacle with Moses while the Lord appeared in the pillar of cloud (compare Numbers 11:25; Numbers 12:5).
Deuteronomy 31:16
The future apostasy of the people is announced in the presence of Joshua that the latter might be fully aware of the danger and strive in his day to avert it. This he faithfully did (compare Joshua 24:31); but we find him in his own last address to Israel repeating Joshua 23:15-16 the self-same prediction and warning.
Deuteronomy 31:19
A witness for me against them - i. e., an attestation from their own mouths at once of God’s benefits, their own duties, and their deserts when they should fall away. Being in verse it would be the more easily learned and kept in memory. The use of songs for such didactic purposes was not unknown to the legislators of antiquity. Compare also the advice of Paul, “teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs” Colossians 3:16.
Deuteronomy 31:23
He gave - i. e., the Lord gave.
