Joshua in Gujarati

Wherever the Gujarati-speaking family has settled around the world, Christ Songs keeps the Bible within reach in the mother tongue — read, searched and shared freely across every time zone of the diaspora.

Joshua tells of Israel’s conquest and settlement of Canaan under Joshua’s leadership, from the crossing of the Jordan and the fall of Jericho to the division of the land among the twelve tribes. It shows God fulfilling His ancient promise of a homeland.

મેં તને બળવાન અને હિમ્મતવાન થવા આજ્ઞા કરી હતી. તેથી ભયભીત કે નાહિંમ્મત થઈશ નહિ કારણ હું તારો દેવ યહોવા છું. યહોશુઆ જ્યાં ક્યાંય તું જાય છે ત્યાં તારો દેવ, હું તારી સાથે છું. — Joshua 1:9 (Gujarati)

Author & setting: Traditionally attributed to Joshua around the fourteenth century BC, set in Canaan during the conquest and settlement.

Joshua reassures readers that God keeps His promises and goes before His people, calling for courage and faith in the face of daunting obstacles.
