MOF JOS Chapter 23

JOS 23 ©

23A long time afterwards, when the Eternal had given Israel rest from all its enemies round about, and when Joshua was old, far advanced in years, 2he summoned all Israel, their sheikhs, their headmen, their judges, and their officers. ”I am an old man,” he said, ”well advanced in years, 3You have seen all that the Eternal your God has done for your sake to all these nations, for it is the Eternal your God who has been fighting for you. 4Now, I allot you the remaining nations, after those which I have wiped out, and you shall hold the land of these nations from the Jordan to the Mediterranean in the west. 5The Eternal your God will push them out before you and evict them out of your sight, till you occupy their land, as the Eternal your God promised you. 6Be firm, then, to carry out and obey all that is written in the law-book of Moses, never swerving from it to the right or to the left, 7never mixing with those nations that remain beside you, never mentioning the names of their gods, never swearing by them nor serving them nor bowing down to them; 8be loyal to the Eternal your God as you have been up till now. 9The Eternal has evicted great, powerful nations in front of you; to this day, not a man has been able to hold his own against you. 10One of you would often chase a thousand men, for it is the Eternal your God who fights for you, aslhe promised you. 11Be careful, then, always to love the Eternal your God. 12Otherwise, if you turn to ally yourselves with the remnant of nations left beside you, and intermarry with them, and have intercourse with them and they with you, 13be sure of this, that the Eternal your God will no longer evict these nations before your eyes; they shall be a danger to you, they shall entrap you, they shall be a scourge for your sides and thorns in your eyes, till you perish off this fine country   which the Eternal your God has assigned you. 14I am now going the way of all the earth; but you know in your own minds and souls, all of you, that not one good promise made by the Eternal about you has ever failed; all have been fulfilled, and not one has failed. 15Well, as all the good promises have been fulfilled to you, of which the Eternal your God told you, so shall the Eternal fulfil all his threats to you till he wipes you off this fine country which the Eternal your God has given you. 16Whenever you break the compact of the Eternal your God, which he has enjoined upon you, and go to serve other gods, bowing down to them, then shall the anger of the Eternal blaze against you, till you perish quickly off the fine country which he has given you.”
