24:15

And if it seem evil
<07489> (8804)

unto you
<04310>

to serve
<05647> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_,

choose
<0977> (8798)

you this day
<03117>

whom
<05869>

ye will serve
<05647> (8799)_;

whether the gods
<0430>

which your fathers
<01>

served
<05647> (8804)

that [were] on the other side
<05676>

of the flood
<05104>_,

or the gods
<0430>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

in whose land
<0776>

ye dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

but as for me and my house
<01004>_,

we will serve
<05647> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_.

24:16

And the people
<05971>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

God forbid
<02486>

that we should forsake
<05800> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_,

to serve
<05647> (8800)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_;

24:17

For the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

he [it is] that brought us up
<05927> (8688)

and our fathers
<01>

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

from the house
<01004>

of bondage
<05650>_,

and which did
<06213> (8804)

those great
<01419>

signs
<0226>

in our sight
<05869>_,

and preserved
<08104> (8799)

us in all the way
<01870>

wherein we went
<01980> (8804)_,

and among all the people
<05971>

through
<07130>

whom we passed
<05674> (8804)_:

24:18

And the LORD
<03068>

drave out
<01644> (8762)

from before
<06440>

us all the people
<05971>_,

even the Amorites
<0567>

which dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in the land
<0776>_:

[therefore] will we also serve
<05647> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_;

for he [is] our God
<0430>_.

24:19

And Joshua
<03091>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the people
<05971>_,

Ye cannot
<03201> (8799)

serve
<05647> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_:

for he [is] an holy
<06918>

God
<0430>_;

he [is] a jealous
<07072>

God
<0410>_;

he will not forgive
<05375> (8799)

your transgressions
<06588>

nor your sins
<02403>_.

{holy God: Heb. holy Gods}

24:20

If ye forsake
<05800> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and serve
<05647> (8804)

strange
<05236>

gods
<0430>_,

then he will turn
<07725> (8804)

and do you hurt
<07489> (8689)_,

and consume
<03615> (8765)

you, after
<0310>

that he hath done you good
<03190> (8689)_.

24:21

And the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joshua
<03091>_,

Nay; but we will serve
<05647> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_.

24:22

And Joshua
<03091>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the people
<05971>_,

Ye [are] witnesses
<05707>

against yourselves that ye have chosen
<0977> (8804)

you the LORD
<03068>_,

to serve
<05647> (8800)

him. And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

[We are] witnesses
<05707>_.

I have chosen
<0977> (8804)

have I laid
<07737> (8765)

[before me].

<08342>

of my heart
<03820>_.

thy precepts

knowledge
<01847>_,

and did not choose
<0977> (8804)

the fear
<03374>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

But he that sinneth
<02398> (8802)

his own soul

all they that hate
<08130> (8764)

me love

death
<04194>_.

the LORD

unto the eunuchs

that keep

<0977> (8804)

[the things] that please
<02654> (8804)

me, and take hold
<02388> (8688)

of my covenant
<01285>_;

<3137>

hath chosen
<1586> (5668)

that good
<18>

part
<3310>_,

which
<3748>

shall
<851> (0)

not

be taken away
