Joshua 24:20-29

²⁰if you give up on him and worship foreign gods. He will turn against you and destroy you despite all the good he has done for you.”

²¹“Don't say that!” the people replied. “We will worship the Lord!”

²²Then Joshua cautioned the people, “You have made yourselves witnesses against yourselves by saying that you have chosen to worship the Lord.” “Yes, we are witnesses,” the people replied.

²³“Then get rid of those foreign gods you have and promise to be loyal only to the Lord, the God of Israel,” Joshua told them.

²⁴The people said to Joshua, “We will worship the Lord our God and we will obey him.”

²⁵So Joshua made a solemn agreement between the people and the Lord that day in Shechem, obligating them to follow all the Lord's laws and instructions.

²⁶Joshua recorded this in the Book of the Law of God, and he set up a large stone under the oak tree near the Lord's sanctuary.

²⁷Joshua said to the people, “Look at this stone. It stands here as a witness against us for it has heard everything the Lord has told us, and it will be a witness against you if you ever deny what you have promised your God.”

²⁸Then Joshua dismissed the people, sending them to their allotted lands.

²⁹Later, after all this, Joshua, son of Nun, servant of the Lord, died at the age of one hundred and ten.
