Numbers 27:18-23
New International Version
18 So the Lord said to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit of leadership,[a](A) and lay your hand on him.(B) 19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire assembly and commission him(C) in their presence.(D) 20 Give him some of your authority so the whole Israelite community will obey him.(E) 21 He is to stand before Eleazar the priest, who will obtain decisions for him by inquiring(F) of the Urim(G) before the Lord. At his command he and the entire community of the Israelites will go out, and at his command they will come in.”
22 Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole assembly. 23 Then he laid his hands on him and commissioned him,(H) as the Lord instructed through Moses.

18 And the Lord said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
20 And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the Lord: at his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
