Joshua 23:2-11

2that JoshuaH3091 calledH7121 for all IsraelH3478, for their eldersH2205, and for their headsH7218, and for their judgesH8199, and for their officersH7860, and saidH559 unto them, I am become oldH2205, advanced in age;

3and ye have seenH7200 all that Jehovah your 1GodH430 hath done to all these nationsH1471 because of you. For Jehovah your 2GodH430 is he that hath foughtH3898 for you.

4Behold, I have divided unto you by lot for an inheritanceH5159, according to your tribesH7626, these nationsH1471 that remainH7604, from the JordanH3383, as well as all the nationsH1471 that I have cutH3772 off, as far as the greatH1419 seaH3220 toward the sun-setting.

5And Jehovah your 3GodH430, he will expel them from before you, and dispossessH3423 them from out of your sight; and ye shall takeH3423 possessionH3423 of their landH776, as Jehovah your 4GodH430 hath saidH1696 unto you.

6And be ye veryH3966 courageous to keepH8104 and to do all that is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the lawH8451 of MosesH4872, that ye turnH5493 not asideH5493 therefrom to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the left;

7that ye enter not among these nationsH1471, these that remainH7604 among you; and ye shall make no mention of the nameH8034 of their 5godsH430, nor cause to swearH7650 [by them], neither serveH5647 them, nor bowH7812 yourselves unto them;

8but ye shall cleave unto Jehovah your 6GodH430, as ye have done unto this dayH3117.

9For Jehovah hath dispossessedH3423 from before you greatH1419 and strong nationsH1471; and as to you, no manH376 hath been able to standH5975 before you unto this dayH3117.

10OneH259 manH376 of you chaseth a thousandH505; for Jehovah your 7GodH430, he it is that fighteth for you, as he hath saidH1696 unto you.

11TakeH8104 great heedH8104 therefore unto your soulsH5315, that ye loveH157 Jehovah your 8GodH430.
