Joshua 24:18-24 And the Lord hath driven out all the nations, and the Emorites who dwelt in the land, from before us; therefore also will we serve the Lord; for he is our God.

Leeser⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ And the Lord hath driven out all the nations, and the Emorites who dwelt in the land, from before us; therefore also will we serve the Lord; for he is our God. ¹⁹ And Joshua said unto the people, Ye will not be able to serve the Lord; for he is a holy God; he is a watchful God; he will not have any indulgence for your transgressions and for your sins; ²⁰ If ye forsake the Lord, and serve strange gods, then will he again do ye evil, and consume ye, after that he hath done you good. ²¹ And the people said unto Joshua, No; nevertheless the Lord will we serve. ²² And Joshua said unto the people, Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye yourselves have chosen for you the Lord, to serve him. And they said, We are witnesses. ²³ And now put away the strange gods which are in the midst of you, and incline your heart unto the Lord the God of Israel. ²⁴ And the people said unto Joshua, The Lord our God will we serve, and his voice will we obey.
