Joshua 24
1.) Then Joshua assembled all the tribes of Israel at Shechem..... and they presented themselves before God.
2.) Joshua said to all the people, "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Long ago your forefathers,.....lived beyond the River and worshiped other gods.....
5.) Then I sent Moses and Aaron, and I afflicted the Egyptians by what I did there, and I brought you out.
8.) "I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived east of the Jordan. They fought against you, but I gave them into your hands....
11.) "Then you crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho. The citizens of Jericho fought against you, as did the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites and Jebusites, but I gave them into your hands.
12.) I sent the hornet ahead of you, which drove them out before you--- You did not do it with your own sword and bow.
13.) So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities you did not build; and you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.
14.) "Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.
15.) But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord."
