06:024:023 Now therefore put away, said he, the strange gods which are
among you, and incline your heart unto the LORD God of Israel.
06:024:024 And the people said unto Joshua, The LORD our God will we
serve, and his voice will we obey.
06:024:025 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and set
them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.
06:024:026 And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God, and took a great stone, and set it up there under an oak, that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.
06:024:027 And Joshua said unto all the people, Behold, this stone shall be a witness unto us; for it hath heard all the words of the LORD which he spake unto us: it shall be therefore a witness unto you, lest ye deny your God.
06:024:028 So Joshua let the people depart, every man unto his inheritance.
06:024:029 And it came to pass after these things, that Joshua the son of
Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being an hundred and ten
years old.
06:024:030 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in
Timnathserah, which is in mount Ephraim, on the north side of
the hill of Gaash.
06:024:031 And Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the
days of the elders that overlived Joshua, and which had known
all the works of the LORD, that he had done for Israel.
06:024:032 And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the children of Joseph.
