Joshua 24:12 in Context — Joshua 24

10 Mas eu não quis escutar a Balaão, antes vos abençoou repetidamente, e vos livre de suas mãos.

11 E passado o Jordão, viestes a Jericó; e os moradores de Jericó lutaram contra vós: os amorreus, perizeus, cananeus, heteus, girgaseus, heveus, e jebuseus: e eu os entreguei em vossas mãos.

12 E enviei vespas diante de vós, os quais os expulsaram de diante de vós, a saber, aos dois reis dos amorreus; não com tua espada, nem com teu arco.

13 E vos dei a terra pela qual nada trabalhastes, e as cidades que não edificastes, nas quais morais; e das vinhas e olivais que não plantastes, comeis.

14 Agora, pois, temei ao SENHOR, e servi-o com integridade e em verdade; e tirai do meio os deuses aos quais serviram vossos pais da outra parte do rio, e em Egito; e servi ao SENHOR.
