Joshua 24:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² I sent great fear on your enemies as you moved into the land.^[a] I chased them all away, as well as the two kings of the Amorites. You did not win because of your strong weapons, but because of me. ¹³ The land was a gift from me. I gave you a land where you had not worked in its fields. I gave you towns to live in that you did not build. You eat grapes and olives from trees that you did not plant.” ’

¹⁴ Joshua said to the people, ‘Now you must serve the Lord with fear. You must worship him. You must continue to trust him. Throw away the gods that your ancestors worshipped when they lived beyond the Euphrates river and in Egypt. Worship the Lord.
