ULT JOS Chapter 23

23 And it happened from many days afterward, when Yahweh had given rest to Israel from all their enemies from all around, that Joshua was old, he came into the days. 2 And Joshua called for all Israel, for its elders and for its heads and for its judges and for its officers. And he said to them, “I am old, I have come into the days. 3 But as for you, you have seen all that Yahweh your God has done to all these nations from your face. For Yahweh your God, he is the one who fights for you. 4 See, I have caused to fall for you these remaining nations as an inheritance for your tribes, from the Jordan and all the nations that I cut off and the great sea, from the going of the sun. 5 And Yahweh your God, he will push them from your face and will dispossess them from before your face. And you will possess their land, just as Yahweh your God spoke to you. 6 And you shall be very strong to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, to not turn aside from it right or left, 7 to not go among these nations, these remaining ones with you. And by the name of their gods you shall not mention and not swear. And you shall not serve them and not bow down to them. 8 But rather to Yahweh your God you shall cling, just as you have done until this day. 9 And Yahweh has dispossessed great and numerous nations from your face. And as for you, a man has not stood against your face until this day. 10 One man from you pursues a thousand. For Yahweh is your God. He is the one who fights for you, just as he has spoken to you. 11 And you shall keep yourselves exceedingly for your selves, to love Yahweh your God. 12 For if you ever turn back and cling to the remainder of these nations, these remaining ones with you, and you intermarry with them and you go among them and they among you, 13 you shall know assuredly that Yahweh your God will not continue to dispossess these nations from before your face. And they will be to you as a trap and as a snare and as a whip on your sides and as thorns in your eyes, until you perish from on this good ground that Yahweh your God has given to you.

14 And behold, today I am about to go the way of all the earth. And you know with all your heart and with all your soul that not one word has fallen from all the good words that Yahweh your God spoke concerning you. The whole has come to you, not one word from it has fallen. 15 And it will happen that just as all the good word that Yahweh your God spoke to you has come upon you, so Yahweh will bring upon you all the evil word until he has destroyed you from this good ground that Yahweh your God has given to you. 16 When you pass over the covenant of Yahweh your God that he commanded you and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, then the nose of Yahweh will burn against you. And you will quickly perish from the good land that he has given to you.”
