Löydetty 7688 Tulokset: Word Of The Lord
Then the sons of Israel cried out to the Lord. And he stationed a darkness between you and the Egyptians, and he led the sea over them, and he covered them. Your eyes saw all that I did in Egypt, and you lived in the wilderness for a long time. (Joshua 24, 7)
Now therefore, fear the Lord, and serve him with a perfect and very sincere heart. And take away the gods that your fathers served in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. (Joshua 24, 14)
But if it seems evil to you that you would serve the Lord, a choice is given to you. Choose today what pleases you, and whom you ought to serve above all else, either the gods that your fathers served in Mesopotamia, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you live: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24, 15)
And the people responded, and they said: “Far be it from us that we would forsake the Lord, and serve foreign gods. (Joshua 24, 16)
The Lord our God himself led us and our fathers away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude. And he accomplished immense signs in our sight, and he preserved us along the entire way by which we journeyed, and among all the people through whom we passed. (Joshua 24, 17)
And he cast out all the nations, the Amorite, the inhabitant of the land that we entered. And so, we will serve the Lord, for he is our God.” (Joshua 24, 18)
And Joshua said to the people: “You will not be able to serve the Lord. For he is a holy and powerful God, and he is jealous, and he will not ignore your wickedness and sins. (Joshua 24, 19)
If you leave behind the Lord, and you serve foreign gods, he will turn himself, and he will afflict you, and he will overthrow you, after all the good that he has offered to you.” (Joshua 24, 20)
And the people said to Joshua, “By no means will it be as you are saying, but we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24, 21)
And Joshua said to the people, “You yourselves are witnesses, that you have chosen the Lord so that you may serve him.” And they answered, “We are witnesses.” (Joshua 24, 22)
“Now therefore,” he said, “take away strange gods from among yourselves, and incline your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel.” (Joshua 24, 23)
And the people said to Joshua, “We will serve the Lord our God, and we will be obedient to his precepts.” (Joshua 24, 24)
