Joshua 23:2-11

2that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders and for their heads, and for their judges and for their officers, and said unto them, I am old and well stricken in years:

3and ye have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done unto all these nations because of you; for Jehovah your God, he it is that hath fought for you.

4Behold, I have allotted unto you these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from the Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun.

5And Jehovah your God, he will thrust them out from before you, and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as Jehovah your God spake unto you.

6Therefore be ye very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left;

7that ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow down yourselves unto them;

8but cleave unto Jehovah your God, as ye have done unto this day.

9For Jehovah hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you, no man hath stood before you unto this day.

10One man of you shall chase a thousand; for Jehovah your God, he it is that fighteth for you, as he spake unto you.

11Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love Jehovah your God.
