Joshua 24:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ The people answered, Far be it from us to forsake the Lord to serve other gods;

¹⁷ For it is the Lord our God Who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, Who did those great signs in our sight and preserved us in all the way that we went and among all the peoples through whom we passed.

¹⁸ And the Lord drove out before us all the people, the Amorites who dwelt in the land. Therefore we also will serve the Lord, for He is our God.
