Deuteronomy 26:17-18
26:17 Today you have declared the
Lord to be your God, and that you will walk in his ways, keep his statutes, commandments, and ordinances, and obey him.

Deuteronomy 29:10-15
29:10 You are standing today, all of you, before the
Lord your God – the heads of your tribes,
your elders, your officials, every Israelite man,
29:11 your infants, your wives, and the
foreigners living in your encampment, those who chop wood and those who carry water –
29:12 so that you may enter by oath into the covenant the
Lord your God is making with you today.
29:13 Today he will affirm that you are his people and that he is your God,
just as he promised you and as he swore by oath to your ancestors
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
29:14 It is not with you alone that I am making this covenant by oath,
29:15 but with whoever stands with us here today before the
Lord our God as well as those not with us here today.
Joshua 24:15-24
24:15 If you have no desire
to worship
the
Lord, choose today whom you will worship,
whether it be the gods whom your ancestors
worshiped
beyond the Euphrates,
or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. But I and my family
will worship
the
Lord!”
24:16 The people responded, “Far be it from us to abandon the Lord so we can worship other gods!
24:17 For the Lord our God took us and our fathers out of slavery in the land of Egypt and performed these awesome miracles before our very eyes. He continually protected us as we traveled and when we passed through nations.
24:18 The Lord drove out from before us all the nations, including the Amorites who lived in the land. So we too will worship the Lord, for he is our God!”
24:19 Joshua warned the people, “You will not keep worshiping the Lord, for he is a holy God. He is a jealous God who will not forgive your rebellion or your sins.
24:20 If you abandon the Lord and worship foreign gods, he will turn against you; he will bring disaster on you and destroy you, though he once treated you well.”
24:21 The people said to Joshua, “No! We really will worship the Lord!”
24:22 Joshua said to the people, “Do you agree to be witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen to worship the Lord?” They replied, “We are witnesses!”
24:23 Joshua said, “Now put aside the foreign gods that are among you and submit to the Lord God of Israel.”
24:24 The people said to Joshua, “We will worship the Lord our God and obey him.”
