Joshua 24:19 in Context — Joshua 24
17 Porque o SENHOR nosso Deus é o que tirou a nós e a nossos pais da terra do Egito, da casa de escravidão; o qual diante de nossos olhos fez estas grandes sinais, e nos guardou por todo o caminho por onde andamos, e em todos os povos por entre os quais passamos.
18 E o SENHOR expulsou de diante de nós a todos os povos, e aos amorreus que habitavam na terra: nós, pois, também serviremos ao SENHOR, porque ele é nosso Deus.
19 Então Josué disse ao povo: Não podereis servir ao SENHOR, porque ele é Deus santo, e Deus zeloso; não tolerará vossas rebeliões e vossos pecados.
20 Se deixardes ao SENHOR e servirdes a deuses alheios, se voltará, e vos maltratará, e vos consumirá, depois que vos fez bem.
21 O povo então disse a Josué: Não, antes ao SENHOR serviremos.
