@ And it came to pass a
long
time
after
that the
LORD
had given
rest
unto
Israel
from all their
enemies
round
about
, that
Joshua
waxed
old
and
stricken
in
age
.
strkjv@Joshua:23:2
@ And
Joshua
called
for all
Israel
, and for their
elders
, and for their
heads
, and for their
judges
, and for their
officers
, and
said
unto them, I am
old
and
stricken
in
age
:
strkjv@Joshua:23:3
@ And ye have
seen
all that the
LORD
your
God
hath
done
unto all these
nations
because
of you; for the
LORD
your
God
is he that hath
fought
for you.
strkjv@Joshua:23:4
@
Behold
, I have
divided
unto you by lot these
nations
that
remain
, to be an
inheritance
for your
tribes
, from
Jordan
, with all the
nations
that I have cut
off
, even unto the
great
sea
westward
.
strkjv@Joshua:23:5
@ And the
LORD
your
God
, he shall
expel
H them from
before
you, and
drive
them from out of your
sight
; and ye shall
possess
their
land
, as the
LORD
your
God
hath
promised
unto you.
strkjv@Joshua:23:6
@ Be ye therefore
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
s@;
strkjv@Joshua:23:7
@ That 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
yourselves unto them:
strkjv@Joshua:23:8
@ But
cleave
unto the
LORD
your
God
, as ye have
done
unto this
day
.
strkjv@Joshua:23:9
@ For the
LORD
hath driven
out
from
before
you
great
nations
and
strong
: but as for you, no
man
hath been able to
stand
before
you unto this
day
.
strkjv@Joshua:23:10
@
One
man
of you shall
chase
a
thousand

LORD
your
God

fighteth
for you, as he hath
promised
you.

@ Take
good
heed
therefore unto
yourselves

love
the
LORD
your
God

@ Else if ye do in any
wise
go
back
, and
cleave
unto the
remnant
of these
nations
, even these that
remain
among you, and shall make
marriages
with them, and go
in
unto them, and they to you:
strkjv@Joshua:23:13
@
Know
for a
certainty
that the
LORD
your
God
will no
more
drive
out
any of these
nations
from
before
you; but they shall be
snares
and
traps
unto you, and
scourges
in your
sides
, and
thorns
in your
eyes
, until ye
perish
from off this
good
land
which the
LORD
your
God
hath
given
you.
strkjv@Joshua:23:14
@ And, behold, this
day
I am
going
the
way
of all the
earth
: and ye
know
in all your
hearts
and in all your
souls
, that not
one
thing
hath
failed
of all the
good
things
which the
LORD
your
God
spake
concerning you; all are come to
pass
unto you, and not
one
thing
hath
failed
thereof.
strkjv@Joshua:23:15
@ Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all
good
things
are
come
upon you, which the
LORD
your
God
promised
you; so shall the
LORD
bring
upon you all
evil
things
, until he have
destroyed
you from off this
good
land
which the
LORD
your
God
hath
given
you.
strkjv@Joshua:23:16
@ When ye have
transgressed
the
covenant
of the
LORD
your
God
, which he
commanded
you, and have
gone
and
served
other
gods
, and
bowed
yourselves to them; then shall the
anger
of the
LORD
be
kindled
against you, and ye shall
perish
quickly
from off the
good
land
which he hath
given
unto you.
