¶ The .xxiii. Chapter.
¶ Iosua exhorteth the people, that they ioyne not
them selues to the Gentyles.
A And it came to passe a longe ceason
after that the Lorde had geuen reste
vnto Israel from all theyr enemyes
rounde about, that Iosua waxed olde, and
was stricken in age. And Iosua called for
all Israel, and for their elders, their heades
their Iudges and officers, and sayde vnto
them: I am olde and stryken in age.
And ye haue sene all that þe; Lorde youre
God hath done vnto all these naci&obar;s befo
you, how þe; Lorde youre God hath fought
for you. Beholde, I haue subdued vnto you
these naci&obar;s þt; remayne, to be an enherita&ubar;ce
for youre tribes: euen from Iordan, and
(from the lande) of all the nacions that I
haue destroyed, euen vnto the great See
westwarde (And there remayne yet many nacions.)
And the Lorde youre God shall expell th&ebar;
before you, and cast th&ebar; from out of youre
sight, and ye shall conquere their lande, as
the Lorde youre God hath saide vnto you.
B Go to therfore note as strongly as ye maye,
-- --
Iosua exhorteth the people
that ye take hede and do all that is written
in the boke of the lawe of Moses, note that ye
vowe not a syde therfr&obar;, to the ryght hand
or to the lefte: and lest that wh&abar; ye come amonge
these nacions, (euen amonge these
that are left with you) ye make mencion or
sweare by the names of their goddes: and
that ye nether serue them, nor bowe youre
selues vnto them. But that ye sticke fast
vnto þe; Lorde youre God, as ye haue done
vnto this daye.
C So shall þe; Lorde cast out
before you great nacions and myghtye, as
no man hath bene able to stande before you
hitherto. noteOne man of you shall chase a
thousande: for þe; Lorde youre God he fighteth
for you, as he hath promised you. Take
good hede therfore vnto youre selues, þt;
ye loue the Lorde youre God.
Els, yf ye go backe and cleaue vnto the
rest of these nacions þt; remayne wyth you,
and shall make mariages with them, ∧ go
in vnto them, and they to you: be ye sure,
that þe; Lorde youre God will nomore cast
out all these nacions fr&obar; before you. noteBut
they shalbe snares and trappes vnto you
and scourges in youre sydes, and thornes
in youre eyes, vntyll ye peryshe fr&obar; of thys
good lande, whych the Lorde youre God
hath geuen you.
D And behold, this daye, do I entre in to the
waye of all the worlde, ∧ ye knowe in all
your hertes ∧ in all youre soules, that note nothyng
hath fayled of all the good thynges
which the Lord youre God promysed you:
But all are come to passe, ∧ nothyng hath
fayled therof. Therfore, as all good th&ibar;ges
are come vpon you, which the Lorde youre
God promysed you, so shall þe; Lorde bryng
vp&obar; you all euell, vntyll he haue destroyed
you fr&obar; of thys good lande, whych þe; Lorde
youre God hath geuen you, wh&ebar; ye haue
transgressed the appointm&ebar;t of the Lorde
youre God, which he c&obar;maunded you: and
haue gone and serued straunge goddes, and
bowed youre selues to th&ebar;. Then shall the
wrath of the Lorde waxe whote vp&obar; you,
∧ ye shall peryshe quicklye fr&obar; of the good
lande, which he hath geuen you,
