Joshua 24:23 in Context — Joshua 24

21 O povo então disse a Josué: Não, antes ao SENHOR serviremos.

22 E Josué respondeu ao povo: Vós sois testemunhas contra vós mesmos, de que escolhestes para vós ao SENHOR para servir-lhe. E eles responderam: Testemunhas somos.

23 Tirai, pois, agora os deuses alheios que estão entre vós, e inclinai vosso coração ao SENHOR Deus de Israel.

24 E o povo respondeu a Josué: Ao SENHOR nosso Deus serviremos, e à sua voz obedeceremos.

25 Então Josué fez aliança com o povo o mesmo dia, e pôs-lhe ordenanças e leis em Siquém.
