Joshua 24:25-33

25So JoshuaH3091 madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the peopleH5971 that dayH3117, and setH7760 them a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941 in ShechemH7927. 26And JoshuaH3091 wroteH3789 these wordsH1697 in the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of GodH430; and he tookH3947 a greatH1419 stoneH68, and setH6965 it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuaryH4720 of Jehovah. 27And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto all the peopleH5971, Behold, this stoneH68 shall beH1961 a witness against us; for it hath heardH8085 all the wordsH561 of Jehovah which he spake unto us: it shall beH1961 therefore a witness against you, lestH6435 ye denyH3584 your GodH430. 28So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971, every manH376 unto his inheritanceH5159.

29And it came to pass after these thingsH1697, that JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, the servantH5650 of Jehovah, diedH4191, being a hundredH3967 and tenH6235 yearsH8141 old. 30And they buriedH6912 him in the borderH1366 of his inheritanceH5159 in Timnath-serah, which is in the hill-country of EphraimH669, on the northH6828 of the mountainH2022 of GaashH1608. 31And IsraelH3478 servedH5647 Jehovah all the daysH3117 of JoshuaH3091, and all the daysH3117 of the eldersH2205 that outlived JoshuaH3091, and had knownH3045 all the workH4639 of Jehovah, that he had wrought for IsraelH3478.

32And the bonesH6106 of JosephH3130, which the children of IsraelH3478 broughtH5927 up out of EgyptH4714, buriedH6912 they in ShechemH7927, in the parcel of ground which JacobH3290 boughtH7069 of the sonsH1121 of HamorH2544 the fatherH1 of ShechemH7927 for a hundredH3967 piecesH7192 of moneyH7192: and they becameH1961 the inheritanceH5159 of the children of JosephH3130. 33And EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of AaronH175 diedH4191; and they buriedH6912 him in the hillH2022 of PhinehasH6372 his sonH1121, which was givenH5414 him in the hill-country of EphraimH669.
