OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_said the_people to Yəhōshūˊa no if/because DOM YHWH we_will_serve.

OET (OET-RV) But the people answered Yehoshua, “No, we will worship Yahweh.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 24:1–33: Israel renewed their covenant with Yahweh

In this section Joshua called the people of Israel together to affirm that they would worship and obey only Yahweh. He warned them that Yahweh would bring disaster on them if they worshiped other gods. Then Joshua died and was buried.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Renewing the covenant at Shechem

The Israelites promise to worship only Yahweh

24:21

“No!” replied the people. “We will serve the LORD!”

The Hebrew conjunction that the BSB leaves untranslated but some English versions translate as “and” introduces the next event in the storyline. Introduce the next event in a way that is natural in your language.

“No!” replied the people: The people answered “No, we will not serve other gods.” They were accepting Joshua’s advice. They were not rejecting it. You may need to add some words to make the meaning clear.

We will serve the LORD!: The Hebrew words that the BSB translates as We will serve the LORD are more literally “but Yahweh we will serve.” The Hebrew sentence puts the word “Yahweh” at the front to indicate emphasis. Use a natural way in your language to mark this emphasis.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

No, we will not serve other gods. It is Yahweh whom we will worship and obey.

We will never honor other gods . We will honor and obey only Yahweh.
