23. “Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are amongst you, and incline your heart to the Lord, the God of Israel.”
24. The people said to Joshua, “We will serve the Lord our God, and we will listen to 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. Joshua wrote these words in the scroll of the Torah of God; and he took a great 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 a witness against us, for it has heard all the Lord’s words which he spoke to us. It shall be therefore a witness against you, lest you deny your God.”
28. So Joshua sent the people away, each to his own inheritance.
29. After these things, Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being one hundred and ten years old.
30. They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathserah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
