“Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD, the God of Israel.”
The people said to Joshua, “We will serve the LORD our God, and we will listen to his voice.”
So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.
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 that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.
