Joshua 24:1-14

24:1

And Joshua
<03091>

gathered
<0622> (8799)

all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>

to Shechem
<07927>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

for the elders
<02205>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and for their heads
<07218>_,

and for their judges
<08199> (8802)_,

and for their officers
<07860> (8802)_;

and they presented
<03320> (8691)

themselves before
<06440>

God
<0430>_.

24:2

And Joshua
<03091>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Your fathers
<01>

dwelt
<03427> (8804)

on the other side
<05676>

of the flood
<05104>

in old time
<05769>_,

[even] Terah
<08646>_,

the father
<01>

of Abraham
<085>_,

and the father
<01>

of Nachor
<05152>_:

and they served
<05647> (8799)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_.

24:3

And I took
<03947> (8799)

your father
<01>

Abraham
<085>

from the other side
<05676>

of the flood
<05104>_,

and led
<03212> (8686)

him throughout all the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

and multiplied
<07235> (8686)

his seed
<02233>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

him Isaac
<03327>_.

24:4

And I gave
<05414> (8799)

unto Isaac
<03327>

Jacob
<03290>

and Esau
<06215>_:

and I gave
<05414> (8799)

unto Esau
<06215>

mount
<02022>

Seir
<08165>_,

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it; but Jacob
<03290>

and his children
<01121>

went down
<03381> (8804)

into Egypt
<04714>_.

24:5

I sent
<07971> (8799)

Moses
<04872>

also and Aaron
<0175>_,

and I plagued
<05062> (8799)

Egypt
<04714>_,

according to that which
<0834>

I did
<06213> (8804)

among
<07130>

them: and afterward
<0310>

I brought you out
<03318> (8689)_.

24:6

And I brought
<03318> (8686)

your fathers
<01>

out of Egypt
<04714>_:

and ye came
<0935> (8799)

unto the sea
<03220>_;

and the Egyptians
<04714>

pursued
<07291> (8799)

after
<0310>

your fathers
<01>

with chariots
<07393>

and horsemen
<06571>

unto the Red
<05488>

sea
<03220>_.

24:7

And when they cried
<06817> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

he put
<07760> (8799)

darkness
<03990>

between you and the Egyptians
<04713>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

the sea
<03220>

upon them, and covered
<03680> (8762)

them; and your eyes
<05869>

have seen
<07200> (8799)

what I have done
<06213> (8804)

in Egypt
<04714>_:

and ye dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the wilderness
<04057>

a long
<07227>

season
<03117>_.

24:8

And I brought
<0935> (8686)

you into the land
<0776>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

which dwelt
<03427> (8802)

on the other side
<05676>

Jordan
<03383>_;

and they fought
<03898> (8735)

with you: and I gave
<05414> (8799)

them into your hand
<03027>_,

that ye might possess
<03423> (8799)

their land
<0776>_;

and I destroyed
<08045> (8686)

them from before
<06440>

you.

24:9

Then Balak
<01111>

the son
<01121>

of Zippor
<06834>_,

king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_,

arose
<06965> (8799)

and warred
<03898> (8735)

against Israel
<03478>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

and called
<07121> (8799)

Balaam
<01109>

the son
<01121>

of Beor
<01160>

to curse
<07043> (8763)

you:

24:10

But I would
<014> (8804)

not hearken
<08085> (8800)

unto Balaam
<01109>_;

therefore he blessed
<01288> (8762)

you still
<01288> (8800)_:

so I delivered
<05337> (8686)

you out of his hand
<03027>_.

24:11

And ye went over
<05674> (8799)

Jordan
<03383>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto Jericho
<03405>_:

and the men
<01167>

of Jericho
<03405>

fought
<03898> (8735)

against you, the Amorites
<0567>_,

and the Perizzites
<06522>_,

and the Canaanites
<03669>_,

and the Hittites
<02850>_,

and the Girgashites
<01622>_,

the Hivites
<02340>_,

and the Jebusites
<02983>_;

and I delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into your hand
<03027>_.

24:12

And I sent
<07971> (8799)

the hornet
<06880>

before
<06440>

you, which drave them out
<01644> (8762)

from before
<06440>

you, [even] the two
<08147>

kings
<04428>

of the Amorites
<0567>_;

[but] not with thy sword
<02719>_,

nor with thy bow
<07198>_.

24:13

And I have given
<05414> (8799)

you a land
<0776>

for which ye did not labour
<03021> (8804)_,

and cities
<05892>

which ye built
<01129> (8804)

not, and ye dwell
<03427> (8799)

in them; of the vineyards
<03754>

and oliveyards
<02132>

which ye planted
<05193> (8804)

not do ye eat
<0398> (8802)_.

24:14

Now therefore fear
<03372> (8798)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and serve
<05647> (8798)

him in sincerity
<08549>

and in truth
<0571>_:

and put away
<05493> (8685)

the gods
<0430>

which your fathers
<01>

served
<05647> (8804)

on the other side
<05676>

of the flood
<05104>_,

and in Egypt
<04714>_;

and serve
<05647> (8798)

ye the LORD
<03068>_.
