rsv@Joshua:1:9 @ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; be not frightened, neither be dismayed; for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

rsv@Joshua:1:11 @ "Pass through the camp, and command the people, `Prepare your provisions; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to take possession of the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess.'"

rsv@Joshua:1:13 @ "Remember the word which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, saying, `The LORD your God is providing you a place of rest, and will give you this land.'

rsv@Joshua:1:15 @ until the LORD gives rest to your brethren as well as to you, and they also take possession of the land which the LORD your God is giving them; then you shall return to the land of your possession, and shall possess it, the land which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise."

rsv@Joshua:1:17 @ Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you; only may the LORD your God be with you, as he was with Moses!

rsv@Joshua:2:11 @ And as soon as we heard it, our hearts melted, and there was no courage left in any man, because of you; for the LORD your God is he who is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.

rsv@Joshua:3:3 @ and commanded the people, "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God being carried by the Levitical priests, then you shall set out from your place and follow it,

rsv@Joshua:3:9 @ And Joshua said to the people of Israel, "Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God."

rsv@Joshua:3:10 @ And Joshua said, "Hereby you shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Per'izzites, the Gir'gashites, the Amorites, and the Jeb'usites.

rsv@Joshua:4:5 @ and Joshua said to them, "Pass on before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take up each of you a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel,

rsv@Joshua:4:23 @ For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan for you until you passed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up for us until we passed over,

rsv@Joshua:4:24 @ so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty; that you may fear the LORD your God for ever."

rsv@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, "Alas, O Lord GOD, why hast thou brought this people over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us? Would that we had been content to dwell beyond the Jordan!

rsv@Joshua:7:13 @ Up, sanctify the people, and say, `Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus says the LORD, God of Israel, "There are devoted things in the midst of you, O Israel; you cannot stand before your enemies, until you take away the devoted things from among you."

rsv@Joshua:7:19 @ Then Joshua said to Achan, "My son, give glory to the LORD God of Israel, and render praise to him; and tell me now what you have done; do not hide it from me."

rsv@Joshua:7:20 @ And Achan answered Joshua, "Of a truth I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and this is what I did:

rsv@Joshua:8:7 @ then you shall rise up from the ambush, and seize the city; for the LORD your God will give it into your hand.

rsv@Joshua:8:30 @ Then Joshua built an altar in Mount Ebal to the LORD, the God of Israel,

rsv@Joshua:9:9 @ They said to him, "From a very far country your servants have come, because of the name of the LORD your God; for we have heard a report of him, and all that he did in Egypt,

rsv@Joshua:9:18 @ But the people of Israel did not kill them, because the leaders of the congregation had sworn to them by the LORD, the God of Israel. Then all the congregation murmured against the leaders.

rsv@Joshua:9:19 @ But all the leaders said to all the congregation, "We have sworn to them by the LORD, the God of Israel, and now we may not touch them.

rsv@Joshua:9:23 @ Now therefore you are cursed, and some of you shall always be slaves, hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God."

rsv@Joshua:9:24 @ They answered Joshua, "Because it was told to your servants for a certainty that the LORD your God had commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; so we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and did this thing.

rsv@Joshua:10:19 @ but do not stay there yourselves, pursue your enemies, fall upon their rear, do not let them enter their cities; for the LORD your God has given them into your hand."

rsv@Joshua:10:40 @ So Joshua defeated the whole land, the hill country and the Negeb and the lowland and the slopes, and all their kings; he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.

rsv@Joshua:10:42 @ And Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel.

rsv@Joshua:13:14 @ To the tribe of Levi alone Moses gave no inheritance; the offerings by fire to the LORD God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to him.

rsv@Joshua:13:33 @ But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance; the LORD God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them.

rsv@Joshua:14:6 @ Then the people of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal; and Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite said to him, "You know what the LORD said to Moses the man of God in Ka'desh-bar'nea concerning you and me.

rsv@Joshua:14:8 @ But my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; yet I wholly followed the LORD my God.

rsv@Joshua:14:9 @ And Moses swore on that day, saying, `Surely the land on which your foot has trodden shall be an inheritance for you and your children for ever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.'

rsv@Joshua:14:14 @ So Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite to this day, because he wholly followed the LORD, the God of Israel.

rsv@Joshua:18:3 @ So Joshua said to the people of Israel, "How long will you be slack to go in and take possession of the land, which the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you?

rsv@Joshua:18:6 @ And you shall describe the land in seven divisions and bring the description here to me; and I will cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

rsv@Joshua:22:3 @ you have not forsaken your brethren these many days, down to this day, but have been careful to keep the charge of the LORD your God.

rsv@Joshua:22:4 @ And now the LORD your God has given rest to your brethren, as he promised them; therefore turn and go to your home in the land where your possession lies, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side of the Jordan.

rsv@Joshua:22:5 @ Take good care to observe the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul."

rsv@Joshua:22:16 @ "Thus says the whole congregation of the LORD, `What is this treachery which you have committed against the God of Israel in turning away this day from following the LORD, by building yourselves an altar this day in rebellion against the LORD?

rsv@Joshua:22:19 @ But now, if your land is unclean, pass over into the LORD's land where the LORD's tabernacle stands, and take for yourselves a possession among us; only do not rebel against the LORD, or make us as rebels by building yourselves an altar other than the altar of the LORD our God.

rsv@Joshua:22:22 @ "The Mighty One, God, the LORD! The Mighty One, God, the LORD! He knows; and let Israel itself know! If it was in rebellion or in breach of faith toward the LORD, spare us not today

rsv@Joshua:22:24 @ Nay, but we did it from fear that in time to come your children might say to our children, `What have you to do with the LORD, the God of Israel?

rsv@Joshua:22:29 @ Far be it from us that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn away this day from following the LORD by building an altar for burnt offering, cereal offering, or sacrifice, other than the altar of the LORD our God that stands before his tabernacle!"

rsv@Joshua:22:33 @ And the report pleased the people of Israel; and the people of Israel blessed God and spoke no more of making war against them, to destroy the land where the Reubenites and the Gadites were settled.

rsv@Joshua:22:34 @ The Reubenites and the Gadites called the altar Witness; "For," said they, "it is a witness between us that the LORD is God."

rsv@Joshua:23:3 @ and you have seen all that the LORD your God has done to all these nations for your sake, for it is the LORD your God who has fought for you.

rsv@Joshua:23:5 @ The LORD your God will push them back before you, and drive them out of your sight; and you shall possess their land, as the LORD your God promised you.

rsv@Joshua:23:7 @ that you may not be mixed with these nations left here among you, or make mention of the names of their gods, or swear by them, or serve them, or bow down yourselves to them,

rsv@Joshua:23:8 @ but cleave to the LORD your God as you have done to this day.

rsv@Joshua:23:10 @ One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the LORD your God who fights for you, as he promised you.

rsv@Joshua:23:11 @ Take good heed to yourselves, therefore, to love the LORD your God.

rsv@Joshua:23:13 @ know assuredly that the LORD your God will not continue to drive out these nations before you; but they shall be a snare and a trap for you, a scourge on your sides, and thorns in your eyes, till you perish from off this good land which the LORD your God has given you.

rsv@Joshua:23:14 @ "And now I am about to go the way of all the earth, and you know in your hearts and souls, all of you, that not one thing has failed of all the good things which the LORD your God promised concerning you; all have come to pass for you, not one of them has failed.

rsv@Joshua:23:15 @ But just as all the good things which the LORD your God promised concerning you have been fulfilled for you, so the LORD will bring upon you all the evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God has given you,

rsv@Joshua:23:16 @ if you transgress the covenant of the LORD your God, which he commanded you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them. Then the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land which he has given to you."

rsv@Joshua:24:1 @ Then Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and summoned the elders, the heads, the judges, and the officers of Israel; and they presented themselves before God.

rsv@Joshua:24:2 @ And Joshua said to all the people, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, `Your fathers lived of old beyond the Euphra'tes, Terah, the father of Abraham and of Nahor; and they served other gods.

rsv@Joshua:24:14 @ "Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness; put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.

rsv@Joshua:24:15 @ And if you be unwilling to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

rsv@Joshua:24:16 @ Then the people answered, "Far be it from us that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods;

rsv@Joshua:24:17 @ for it is the LORD our God who brought us and our fathers up from the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, and who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way that we went, and among all the peoples through whom we passed;

rsv@Joshua:24:18 @ and the LORD drove out before us all the peoples, the Amorites who lived in the land; therefore we also will serve the LORD, for he is our God."

rsv@Joshua:24:19 @ But Joshua said to the people, "You cannot serve the LORD; for he is a holy God; he is a jealous God; he will not forgive your transgressions or your sins.

rsv@Joshua:24:20 @ If you forsake the LORD and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you harm, and consume you, after having done you good."

rsv@Joshua:24:23 @ He said, "Then put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD, the God of Israel."

rsv@Joshua:24:24 @ And the people said to Joshua, "The LORD our God we will serve, and his voice we will obey."

rsv@Joshua:24:26 @ And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak in the sanctuary of the LORD.

rsv@Joshua:24:27 @ And Joshua said to all the people, "Behold, this stone shall be a witness against us; for it has heard all the words of the LORD which he spoke to us; therefore it shall be a witness against you, lest you deal falsely with your God."

rsv@Judges:1:7 @ And Ado'ni-be'zek said, "Seventy kings with their thumbs and their great toes cut off used to pick up scraps under my table; as I have done, so God has requited me." And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.

rsv@Judges:2:3 @ So now I say, I will not drive them out before you; but they shall become adversaries to you, and their gods shall be a snare to you."

rsv@Judges:2:12 @ and they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt; they went after other gods, from among the gods of the peoples who were round about them, and bowed down to them; and they provoked the LORD to anger.

rsv@Judges:2:17 @ And yet they did not listen to their judges; for they played the harlot after other gods and bowed down to them; they soon turned aside from the way in which their fathers had walked, who had obeyed the commandments of the LORD, and they did not do so.

rsv@Judges:2:19 @ But whenever the judge died, they turned back and behaved worse than their fathers, going after other gods, serving them and bowing down to them; they did not drop any of their practices or their stubborn ways.

rsv@Judges:6:10 @ and I said to you, `I am the LORD your God; you shall not pay reverence to the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.' But you have not given heed to my voice."

rsv@Judges:6:26 @ and build an altar to the LORD your God on the top of the stronghold here, with stones laid in due order; then take the second bull, and offer it as a burnt offering with the wood of the Ashe'rah which you shall cut down."

rsv@Judges:6:31 @ But Jo'ash said to all who were arrayed against him, "Will you contend for Ba'al? Or will you defend his cause? Whoever contends for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because his altar has been pulled down."

rsv@Judges:6:36 @ Then Gideon said to God, "If thou wilt deliver Israel by my hand, as thou hast said,

rsv@Judges:6:39 @ Then Gideon said to God, "Let not thy anger burn against me, let me speak but this once; pray, let me make trial only this once with the fleece; pray, let it be dry only on the fleece, and on all the ground let there be dew."

rsv@Judges:6:40 @ And God did so that night; for it was dry on the fleece only, and on all the ground there was dew.

rsv@Judges:7:14 @ And his comrade answered, "This is no other than the sword of Gideon the son of Jo'ash, a man of Israel; into his hand God has given Mid'ian and all the host."

rsv@Judges:8:3 @ God has given into your hands the princes of Mid'ian, Oreb and Zeeb; what have I been able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger against him was abated, when he had said this.
