He summoned the elders of Israel, its leaders, judges, and officers. They presented themselves before God. 2Then Joshua said to the entire people, \u201cThis is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Long ago your ancestors lived on the other side of the Euphrates. They served other gods. Among them was Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor. 3I took Abraham your ancestor from the other side of the Euphrates. I led him around through the whole land of Canaan. I added to his descendants and gave him Isaac. 4To Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave Mount Seir to Esau to take over. But Jacob and his sons went down to Egypt. 5Then I sent Moses and Aaron. I plagued Egypt with what I did to them. After that I brought you out. 6I brought your ancestors out of Egypt, and you came to the sea. The Egyptians chased your ancestors with chariots and horses to the Reed Sea. 7Then they cried for help to the LORD. So he set darkness between you and the Egyptians. He brought the sea down on them, and it covered them. With your own eyes you saw what I did to the Egyptians. You lived in the desert for a long time. 8\u201cThen I brought you into the land of the Amorites who lived on the other side of the Jordan. They attacked you, but I gave them into your power, and you took over their land. I wiped them out before you. 9Then Moab\u2019s King Balak, Zippor\u2019s son, set out to attack Israel. He summoned Balaam, Beor\u2019s son, to curse you. 10But I wasn\u2019t willing to listen to Balaam, so he actually blessed you. I rescued you from his power. 11Then you crossed over the Jordan. You came to Jericho, and the citizens of Jericho attacked you. They were Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and Jebusites. But I gave them into your power. 12I sent the hornet before you. It drove them out before you and did the same to the two kings of the Amorites. It wasn\u2019t your sword or bow that did this. 13I gave you land on which you hadn\u2019t toiled and cities that you hadn\u2019t built. You settled in them and are enjoying produce from vineyards and olive groves that you didn\u2019t plant. Challenge to be faithful 14\u201cSo now, revere the LORD. Serve him honestly and faithfully. Put aside the gods that your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates and in Egypt and serve the LORD. 15But if it seems wrong in your opinion to serve the LORD, then choose today whom you will serve. Choose the gods whom your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But my family and I will serve the LORD.\u201d 16Then the people answered, \u201cGod forbid that we ever leave the LORD to serve other gods! 17The LORD is our God. He is the one who brought us and our ancestors up from the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. He has done these mighty signs in our sight. He has protected us the whole way we\u2019ve gone and in all the nations through which we\u2019ve passed. 18The LORD has driven out all the nations before us, including the Amorites who lived in the land. We too will serve the LORD, because he is our God.\u201d 19Then Joshua said to the people, \u201cYou can\u2019t serve the LORD, because he is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He won\u2019t forgive your rebellion and your sins. 20If you leave the LORD and serve foreign gods, then he will turn around and do you harm and finish you off, in spite of having done you good in the past.\u201d 21Then the people said to Joshua, \u201cNo! The LORD is the one we will serve.\u201d 22So Joshua said to the people, \u201cYou are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen to serve the LORD.\u201d They said, \u201cWe are witnesses!\u201d 23\u201cSo now put aside the foreign gods that are among you. Focus your hearts on the LORD, the God of Israel.\u201d 24The people said to Joshua, \u201cWe will serve the LORD our God and will obey him.\u201d Joshua makes a covenant 25On that day Joshua made a covenant for the people and established just rule for them at Shechem. 26Joshua wrote these words in God\u2019s Instruction scroll. Then he took a large stone and put it up there under the oak in the sanctuary of the LORD. 27Joshua said to all the people, \u201cThis stone will serve here as a witness against us, because it has heard all the LORD\u2019s words that he spoke to us. It will serve as a witness against you in case you aren\u2019t true to your God.\u201d 28Then Joshua sent the people away to each one\u2019s legacy. Three important graves 29After these events, Joshua, Nun\u2019s son, the LORD\u2019s servant, died. He was 110. 30They buried him within the border of his own legacy, in Timnath-serah in the highlands of Ephraim north of Mount Gaash. 31Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua. They had known every act the LORD had done for Israel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2NjbzZiVE9fLWQwOE9kZGhNZHBseTdDcy1pUXxBQ3Jtc0tsNFRhNDczUmhWUUhnNElaTlJIVDhPczAxNkhuRG82eUxkR1M4eEFNSXFHUFBnVktPa2ZERjBqV0QyUFk0bzh3dmlHWUItZFg0ZmNQNHBrNE1JWm5heERCRVlHU1FLY21jV21tMmZCQ3pOX0xPeW9PRQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Ftemtube.com%2F\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/temtube.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel at Shechem.
