22. Joshua said to the people, "You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen for yourselves the Lord, to serve Him." And they said, "We are witnesses."
23. "Now therefore, put away the foreign gods which are in your midst, and incline your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel."
24. The people said to Joshua, "We will serve the Lord our God and we will obey His voice."
25. So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.
26. And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a large stone and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the Lord.
27. Joshua said to all the people, "Behold, this stone shall be for a witness against us, for it has heard all the words of the Lord which He spoke to us; thus it shall be for a witness against you, so that you do not deny your God."
28. Then Joshua dismissed the people, each to his inheritance.
29. It came about after these things that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being one hundred and ten years old.
30. And they buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath-serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of Mount Gaash.
31. Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who survived Joshua, and had known all the deeds of the Lord which He had done for Israel.
32. Now they buried the bones of Joseph, which the sons of Israel brought up from Egypt, at Shechem, in the piece of ground which Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for one hundred pieces of money; and they became the inheritance of Joseph's sons.
