CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ And Joshua said to the people, Indeed you will not be able to serve the Lord, for God is holy; and He being jealous will not forgive your sins and your transgressions. ²⁰ Whenever you shall forsake the Lord and serve other gods, then He shall come upon you and afflict you, and consume you, because He has done you good. ²¹ And the people said to Joshua, No, but we will serve the Lord! ²² And Joshua said to the people, You are witnesses against yourselves, that you have chosen the Lord, to serve Him. ²³ And now take away the strange gods that are among you, and set your heart right toward the Lord God of Israel. ²⁴ And the people said to Joshua, We will serve the Lord, and we will hearken to His voice.
