Joshua 24:12-14

12 I sent swarms of hornets[a] ahead of you that drove out before you the two kings of the Amorites; it was not by your sword or by your bow.(A) 13 I gave you a land on which you had not labored and towns that you had not built, and you live in them; you eat the fruit of vineyards and oliveyards that you did not plant.(B)
14 “Now, therefore, revere the Lord and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness; put away the gods that your ancestors served beyond the River and in Egypt and serve the Lord.(C)
