Joshua 24:20-29

²⁰If you forsake Yahweh and worship foreign gods, then he will turn and do you harm. He will consume you, after he has done good to you.”

²¹But the people said to Joshua, “No, we will worship Yahweh.”

²²Then Joshua said to the people, “You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen for yourselves Yahweh, to worship him.” They said, “We are witnesses.”

²³“Now put away the foreign gods that are with you, and turn your heart to Yahweh, the God of Israel.”

²⁴The people said to Joshua, “We will worship Yahweh our God. We will listen to his voice.”

²⁵Joshua made a covenant with the people that day. He put in place decrees and laws at Shechem.

²⁶Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God. He took a large stone and set it up there beneath the oak tree that was beside Yahweh's sanctuary.

²⁷Joshua said to all the people, “Look, this stone will be a testimony against us. It has heard all the words Yahweh said to us. So it will be a witness against you, should you ever deny your God.”

²⁸So Joshua sent the people away, each to his own inheritance.

²⁹After these things Joshua son of Nun, the servant of Yahweh, died, being 110 years old.
