And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, anddid as the Lord commanded Moses. (Deuteronomy 34:9) Moses laying hands on Joshua was important both for Joshua and for the whole congregation of Israel.
At si Josue na anak ni Nun ay napuspos ng diwa ng karunungan: sapagka t ipinatong ni Moises ang kaniyang mga kamay sa kaniya; at dininig siya ng mga anak ni Israel, at ginawa nila ang gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises. (Deuteronomio 34:9) Ang pagpapatong ng kamay ni Moises kay Josue ay mahalaga kay Josue at sa buong kapulungan ng Israel.
