And Joshua [3091] gathered [0622] all the tribes [7626] of Israel [3478] to Shechem, [7927] and called [7121] for the elders [2205] of Israel, [3478] and for their heads, [7218] and for their judges, [8199] and for their officers; [7860] and they presented [3320] themselves before [6440] God. [0430]

2

And Joshua [3091] said [0559] unto all the people, [5971] Thus saith [0559] the LORD [3068] God [0430] of Israel, [3478] Your fathers [0001] dwelt [3427] on the other side [5676] of the flood [5104] in old time, [5769] [even] Terah, [8646] the father [0001] of Abraham, [0085] and the father [0001] of Nachor: [5152] and they served [5647] other [0312] gods. [0430]

3

And I took [3947] your father [0001] Abraham [0085] from the other side [5676] of the flood, [5104] and led [3212] him throughout all the land [0776] of Canaan, [3667] and multiplied [7235] his seed, [2233] and gave [5414] him Isaac. [3327]

4

And I gave [5414] unto Isaac [3327] Jacob [3290] and Esau: [6215] and I gave [5414] unto Esau [6215] mount [2022] Seir, [8165] to possess [3423] it; but Jacob [3290] and his children [1121] went down [3381] into Egypt. [4714]

5

I sent [7971] Moses [4872] also and Aaron, [0175] and I plagued [5062] Egypt, [4714] according to that which [0834] I did [6213] among [7130] them: and afterward [0310] I brought you out. [3318]

6

And I brought your fathers [0001] out [3318] of Egypt: [4714] and ye came [0935] unto the sea; [3220] and the Egyptians [4714] pursued [7291] after [0310] your fathers [0001] with chariots [7393] and horsemen [6571] unto the Red [5488] sea. [3220]

7

And when they cried [6817] unto the LORD, [3068] he put [7760] darkness [3990] between you and the Egyptians, [4713] and brought [0935] the sea [3220] upon them, and covered [3680] them; and your eyes [5869] have seen [7200] what I have done [6213] in Egypt: [4714] and ye dwelt [3427] in the wilderness [4057] a long [7227] season. [3117]

8

And I brought [0935] you into the land [0776] of the Amorites, [0567] which dwelt [3427] on the other side [5676] Jordan; [3383] and they fought [3898] with you: and I gave [5414] them into your hand, [3027] that ye might possess [3423] their land; [0776] and I destroyed [8045] them from before [6440] you.

9

Then Balak [1111] the son [1121] of Zippor, [6834] king [4428] of Moab, [4124] arose [6965] and warred [3898] against Israel, [3478] and sent [7971] and called [7121] Balaam [1109] the son [1121] of Beor [1160] to curse [7043] you:

10

But I would [0014] not hearken [8085] unto Balaam; [1109] therefore he blessed [1288] you still: [1288] so I delivered [5337] you out of his hand. [3027]

11

And ye went over [5674] Jordan, [3383] and came [0935] unto Jericho: [3405] and the men [1167] of Jericho [3405] fought [3898] against you, the Amorites, [0567] and the Perizzites, [6522] and the Canaanites, [3669] and the Hittites, [2850] and the Girgashites, [1622] the Hivites, [2340] and the Jebusites; [2983] and I delivered [5414] them into your hand. [3027]

12

And I sent [7971] the hornet [6880] before [6440] you, which drave them out [1644] from before [6440] you, [even] the two [8147] kings [4428] of the Amorites; [0567] [but] not with thy sword, [2719] nor with thy bow. [7198]

13

And I have given [5414] you a land [0776] for which ye did not labour, [3021] and cities [5892] which ye built [1129] not, and ye dwell [3427] in them; of the vineyards [3754] and oliveyards [2132] which ye planted [5193] not do ye eat. [0398]

14

Now therefore fear [3372] the LORD, [3068] and serve [5647] him in sincerity [8549] and in truth: [0571] and put away [5493] the gods [0430] which your fathers [0001] served [5647] on the other side [5676] of the flood, [5104] and in Egypt; [4714] and serve [5647] ye the LORD. [3068]

15

And if it seem evil [7489] unto you [5869] to serve [5647] the LORD, [3068] choose [0977] you this day [3117] whom [4310] ye will serve; [5647] whether the gods [0430] which your fathers [0001] served [5647] that [were] on the other side [5676] of the flood, [5104] or the gods [0430] of the Amorites, [0567] in whose land [0776] ye dwell: [3427] but as for me and my house, [1004] we will serve [5647] the LORD. [3068]

16

And the people [5971] answered [6030] and said, [0559] God forbid [2486] that we should forsake [5800] the LORD, [3068] to serve [5647] other [0312] gods; [0430]

17

For the LORD [3068] our God, [0430] he [it is] that brought us up [5927] and our fathers [0001] out of the land [0776] of Egypt, [4714] from the house [1004] of bondage, [5650] and which did [6213] those great [1419] signs [0226] in our sight, [5869] and preserved [8104] us in all the way [1870] wherein we went, [1980] and among all the people [5971] through [7130] whom we passed: [5674]

18

And the LORD [3068] drave out [1644] from before [6440] us all the people, [5971] even the Amorites [0567] which dwelt [3427] in the land: [0776] [therefore] will we also serve [5647] the LORD; [3068] for he [is] our God. [0430]

19

And Joshua [3091] said [0559] unto the people, [5971] Ye cannot [3808] [3201] serve [5647] the LORD: [3068] for he [is] an holy [6918] God; [0430] he [is] a jealous [7072] God; [0410] he will not forgive [5375] your transgressions [6588] nor your sins. [2403]

20

If ye forsake [5800] the LORD, [3068] and serve [5647] strange [5236] gods, [0430] then he will turn [7725] and do you hurt, [7489] and consume [3615] you, after [0310] that he hath done you good. [3190]

21

And the people [5971] said [0559] unto Joshua, [3091] Nay; but we will serve [5647] the LORD. [3068]

22

And Joshua [3091] said [0559] unto the people, [5971] Ye [are] witnesses [5707] against yourselves that ye have chosen [0977] you the LORD, [3068] to serve [5647] him. And they said, [0559] [We are] witnesses. [5707]

23

Now therefore put away, [5493] [said he], the strange [5236] gods [0430] which [are] among [7130] you, and incline [5186] your heart [3824] unto the LORD [3068] God [0430] of Israel. [3478]

24

And the people [5971] said [0559] unto Joshua, [3091] The LORD [3068] our God [0430] will we serve, [5647] and his voice [6963] will we obey. [8085]

25

So Joshua [3091] made [3772] a covenant [1285] with the people [5971] that day, [3117] and set [7760] them a statute [2706] and an ordinance [4941] in Shechem. [7927]

26

And Joshua [3091] wrote [3789] these words [1697] in the book [5612] of the law [8451] of God, [0430] and took [3947] a great [1419] stone, [0068] and set it up [6965] there under an oak, [0427] that [was] by the sanctuary [4720] of the LORD. [3068]

27

And Joshua [3091] said [0559] unto all the people, [5971] Behold, this stone [0068] shall be a witness [5713] unto us; for it hath heard [8085] all the words [0561] of the LORD [3068] which he spake [1696] unto us: it shall be therefore a witness [5713] unto you, lest ye deny [3584] your God. [0430]

28

So Joshua [3091] let the people [5971] depart, [7971] every man [0376] unto his inheritance. [5159]

29

And it came to pass after [0310] these things, [1697] that Joshua [3091] the son [1121] of Nun, [5126] the servant [5650] of the LORD, [3068] died, [4191] [being] an hundred [3967] and ten [6235] years [8141] old. [1121]

30

And they buried [6912] him in the border [1366] of his inheritance [5159] in Timnathserah, [8556] which [is] in mount [2022] Ephraim, [0669] on the north [6828] side of the hill [2022] of Gaash. [1608]

31

And Israel [3478] served [5647] the LORD [3068] all the days [3117] of Joshua, [3091] and all the days [3117] of the elders [2205] that overlived [0748] [3117] [0310] Joshua, [3091] and which had known [3045] all the works [4639] of the LORD, [3068] that he had done [6213] for Israel. [3478]

32

And the bones [6106] of Joseph, [3130] which the children [1121] of Israel [3478] brought up [5927] out of Egypt, [4714] buried [6912] they in Shechem, [7927] in a parcel [2513] of ground [7704] which Jacob [3290] bought [7069] of the sons [1121] of Hamor [2544] the father [0001] of Shechem [7927] for an hundred [3967] pieces of silver: [7192] and it became the inheritance [5159] of the children [1121] of Joseph. [3130]

33

And Eleazar [0499] the son [1121] of Aaron [0175] died; [4191] and they buried [6912] him in a hill [1389] [that pertained to] Phinehas [6372] his son, [1121] which was given [5414] him in mount [2022] Ephraim. [0669]
