Joshua 24:16-18

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ And the people answered and said, “God forbid that we should forsake the Lord to serve other gods;

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

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