Joshua 24:21-25 And the people answered Joshua, "Nay, but we will serve the LORD."

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ And the people answered Joshua, "Nay, but we will serve the LORD." ²² Then Joshua said unto the folk, "Ye are witnesses unto yourselves, that ye have chosen you the LORD, to serve him." And they said, "We are witnesses." ²³ "Then put away," said he, "the strange gods which are among you, and bow your hearts unto the LORD God of Israel." ²⁴ And the people answered Joshua, "The LORD our God we will serve and his voice we will obey." ²⁵ And so Joshua made a covenant with the people the same day and set ordinances and laws before them in Shechem.
