Joshua 24:15-28

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>_.

24:23

Now therefore put away
<05493> (8685)_,

[said he], the strange
<05236>

gods
<0430>

which [are] among
<07130>

you, and incline
<05186> (8685)

your heart
<03824>

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

24:24

And the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joshua
<03091>_,

The LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

will we serve
<05647> (8799)_,

and his voice
<06963>

will we obey
<08085> (8799)_.

24:25

So Joshua
<03091>

made
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

with the people
<05971>

that day
<03117>_,

and set
<07760> (8799)

them a statute
<02706>

and an ordinance
<04941>

in Shechem
<07927>_.

24:26

And Joshua
<03091>

wrote
<03789> (8799)

these words
<01697>

in the book
<05612>

of the law
<08451>

of God
<0430>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

a great
<01419>

stone
<068>_,

and set it up
<06965> (8686)

there under an oak
<0427>_,

that [was] by the sanctuary
<04720>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

24:27

And Joshua
<03091>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

Behold, this stone
<068>

shall be a witness
<05713>

unto us; for it hath heard
<08085> (8804)

all the words
<0561>

of the LORD
<03068>

which he spake
<01696> (8765)

unto us: it shall be therefore a witness
<05713>

unto you, lest ye deny
<03584> (8762)

your God
<0430>_.

24:28

So Joshua
<03091>

let the people
<05971>

depart
<07971> (8762)_,

every man
<0376>

unto his inheritance
<05159>_.

Luke 14:25-33

14:25

And
<1161>

there went
<4848> (5711)

great
<4183>

multitudes
<3793>

with him
<846>_:

and
<2532>

he turned
<4762> (5651)_,

and said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

them
<846>_,

14:26

If any
<1536>

[man] come
<2064> (5736)

to
<4314>

me
<3165>_,

and
<2532>

hate
<3404> (5719)

not
<3756>

his
<1438>

father
<3962>_,

and
<2532>

mother
<3384>_,

and
<2532>

wife
<1135>_,

and
<2532>

children
<5043>_,

and
<2532>

brethren
<80>_,

and
<2532>

sisters
<79>_,

yea
<2089>_,

and
<1161>

his own
<1438>

life
<5590>

also
<2532>_,

he cannot
<3756> <1410> (5736)

be
<1511> (5750)

my
<3450>

disciple
<3101>_.

14:27

And
<2532>

whosoever
<3748>

doth
<941> (0)

not
<3756>

bear
<941> (5719)

his
<846>

cross
<4716>_,

and
<2532>

come
<2064> (5736)

after
<3694>

me
<3450>_,

cannot
<3756> <1410> (5736)

be
<1511> (5750)

my
<3450>

disciple
<3101>_.

14:28

For
<1063>

which
<5101>

of
<1537>

you
<5216>_,

intending
<2309> (5723)

to build
<3618> (5658)

a tower
<4444>_,

sitteth
<2523> (0)

not
<3780>

down
<2523> (5660)

first
<4412>_,

and counteth
<5585> (5719)

the cost
<1160>_,

whether
<1487>

he have
<2192> (5719)

[sufficient] to
<4314>

finish
<535>

[it]?

14:29

Lest
<3363>

haply
<3379>_,

after he
<846>

hath laid
<5087> (5631)

the foundation
<2310>_,

and
<2532>

is
<2480> (0)

not
<3361>

able
<2480> (5723)

to finish
<1615> (5658)

[it], all
<3956>

that behold
<2334> (5723)

[it] begin
<756> (5672)

to mock
<1702> (5721)

him
<846>_,

14:30

Saying
<3004> (5723)_,

This
<3754> <3778>

man
<444>

began
<756> (5662)

to build
<3618> (5721)_,

and
<2532>

was
<2480> (0)

not
<3756>

able
<2480> (5656)

to finish
<1615> (5658)_.

14:31

Or
<2228>

what
<5101>

king
<935>_,

going
<4198> (5740)

to make
<4820> (5629)

war
<4171>

against
<1519>

another
<2087>

king
<935>_,

sitteth
<2523> (0)

not
<3780>

down
<2523> (5660)

first
<4412>_,

and consulteth
<1011> (5736)

whether
<1487>

he be
<2076> (5748)

able
<1415>

with
<1722>

ten
<1176>

thousand
<5505>

to meet
<528> (5658)

him that cometh
<2064> (5740)

against
<1909>

him
<846>

with
<3326>

twenty
<1501>

thousand
<5505>_?

14:32

Or else
<1490>_,

while the other
<846>

is
<5607> (5752)

yet
<2089>

a great way off
<4206>_,

he sendeth
<649> (5660)

an ambassage
<4242>_,

and desireth
<2065> (5719)

conditions
<4314>

of peace
<1515>_.

14:33

So
<3779>

likewise
<3767>_,

whosoever
<3956>

he be of
<1537>

you
<5216>

that
<3739>

forsaketh
<657> (5731)

not
<3756>

all
<3956>

that he hath
<5224> (5723) <1438>_,

he cannot
<3756> <1410> (5736)

be
<1511> (5750)

my
<3450>

disciple
<3101>_.
