Joshua 23:7 in Context — Joshua 23
5 L’Éternel, votre Dieu, les repoussera devant vous et les chassera devant vous; et vous posséderez leur pays, comme l’Éternel, votre Dieu, vous l’a dit.
6 Appliquez-vous avec force à observer et à mettre en pratique tout ce qui est écrit dans le livre de la loi de Moïse, sans vous en détourner ni à droite ni à gauche.
7 Ne vous mêlez point avec ces nations qui sont restées parmi vous; ne prononcez point le nom de leurs dieux, et ne l’employez point en jurant; ne les servez point, et ne vous prosternez point devant eux.
8 Mais attachez-vous à l’Éternel, votre Dieu, comme vous l’avez fait jusqu’à ce jour.
9 L’Éternel a chassé devant vous des nations grandes et puissantes; et personne, jusqu’à ce jour, n’a pu vous résister.
