Joshua 24:25-33

251So JoshuaH3091 madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the peopleH5971 that dayH3117, and madeH7760 for them a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941 in ShechemH7927. 26And JoshuaH3091 2wroteH3789 theseH428 wordsH1697 in the BookH5612 of the LawH8451 of GodH430; and he tookH3947 a largeH1419 stoneH68 and setH6965 it upH6965 thereH8033 underH8478 the oakH427 that was by the sanctuaryH4720 of the LordH3068. 27Then JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to allH3605 the peopleH5971, “BeholdH2009, 3thisH2088 stoneH68 shall be a witnessH5713 against us, becauseH3588 it has heardH8085 allH3605 the wordsH561 of the LordH3068 whichH834 He spokeH1696 4to us; so it shall be a witnessH5713 against you, soH6435 thatH6435 you do notH6435 denyH3584 your GodH430.” 28Then JoshuaH3091 dismissedH7971 the peopleH5971, eachH376 to his inheritanceH5159.

29Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 afterH310 theseH428 thingsH1697 that JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, the servantH5650 of the LordH3068, diedH4191, being 110H3967H6235 yearsH8141 oldH1121. 30And they buriedH6912 him in the territoryH1366 of his inheritanceH5159, in 5Timnath-serahH8556, whichH834 is in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, on the northH6828 of MountH2022 GaashH1608.

316IsraelH3478 servedH5647 the LordH3068 allH3605 the daysH3117 of JoshuaH3091 and allH3605 the daysH3117 of the eldersH2205 whoH834 7survivedH748H3117H310 JoshuaH3091, and had knownH3045 everyH3605 deedH4639 of the LordH3068 whichH834 He had doneH6213 for IsraelH3478.

32Now 8they buriedH6912 the bonesH6106 of JosephH3130, whichH834 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 broughtH5927 upH5927 from EgyptH4714, at ShechemH7927, in the plotH2513 of landH7704 9whichH834 JacobH3290 had boughtH7069 from the sonsH1121 of HamorH2544 the fatherH1 of ShechemH7927 for a hundredH3967 10piecesH7192 ofH7192 moneyH7192; and they becameH1961 the inheritanceH5159 of Joseph’sH3130 sonsH1121. 33And EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of AaronH175 diedH4191; and they buriedH6912 him at GibeahH1390, the town of his sonH1121 11PhinehasH6372, whichH834 was givenH5414 to him in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669.
