Joshua 1:14-16
Christian Standard Bible
14 Your wives, dependents, and livestock may remain in the land Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But your best soldiers must cross over in battle formation[a] ahead of your brothers and help them 15 until the Lord gives your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they too possess the land the Lord your God is giving them. You may then return to the land of your inheritance(A) and take possession of what Moses the Lord’s servant(B) gave you on the east side of the Jordan.”
16 They answered Joshua, “Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go.

Joshua 1:14-16
New International Version
14 Your wives,(A) your children and your livestock may stay in the land(B) that Moses gave you east of the Jordan, but all your fighting men, ready for battle,(C) must cross over ahead of your fellow Israelites.(D) You are to help them 15 until the Lord gives them rest, as he has done for you, and until they too have taken possession of the land the Lord your God is giving them. After that, you may go back and occupy your own land, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you east of the Jordan toward the sunrise.”(E)
16 Then they answered Joshua, “Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.(F)
