Joshua 24:15 in Context — Joshua 24
13 Je vous donnai un pays que vous n’aviez point cultivé, des villes que vous n’aviez point bâties et que vous habitez, des vignes et des oliviers que vous n’aviez point plantés et qui vous servent de nourriture.
14 Maintenant, craignez l’Éternel, et servez-le avec intégrité et fidélité. Faites disparaître les dieux qu’ont servis vos pères de l’autre côté du fleuve et en Égypte, et servez l’Éternel.
15 Et si vous ne trouvez pas bon de servir l’Éternel, choisissez aujourd’hui qui vous voulez servir, ou les dieux que servaient vos pères au-delà du fleuve, ou les dieux des Amoréens dans le pays desquels vous habitez. Moi et ma maison, nous servirons l’Éternel.
16 Le peuple répondit, et dit: Loin de nous la pensée d’abandonner l’Éternel, et de servir d’autres dieux!
17 Car l’Éternel est notre Dieu; c’est lui qui nous a fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, de la maison de servitude, nous et nos pères; c’est lui qui a opéré sous nos yeux ces grands prodiges, et qui nous a gardés pendant toute la route que nous avons suivie et parmi tous les peuples au milieu desquels nous avons passé.
