Joshua 23

The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA

1 evoluto autem multo tempore postquam pacem Dominus dederat Israheli subiectis in gyro nationibus universis et Iosue iam longevo et persenilis aetatis

2 vocavit Iosue omnem Israhelem maioresque natu et principes ac duces et magistros dixitque ad eos ego senui et progressioris aetatis sum

3 vosque cernitis omnia quae fecerit Dominus Deus vester cunctis per circuitum nationibus quomodo pro vobis ipse pugnaverit

4 et nunc quia vobis sorte divisit omnem terram ab orientali parte Iordanis usque ad mare Magnum multaeque adhuc supersunt natione

5 Dominus Deus vester disperdet eas et auferet a facie vestra et possidebitis terram sicut vobis pollicitus est

6 tantum confortamini et estote solliciti ut custodiatis cuncta quae scripta sunt in volumine legis Mosi et non declinetis ab eis nec ad dextram nec ad sinistram

7 ne postquam intraveritis ad gentes quae inter vos futurae sunt iuretis in nomine deorum earum et serviatis eis et adoretis illos

8 sed adhereatis Domino Deo vestro quod fecistis usque in diem hanc

9 et tunc auferet Dominus in conspectu vestro gentes magnas et robustissimas et nullus vobis resistere poterit

10 unus e vobis persequetur hostium mille viros quia Dominus Deus vester pro vobis ipse pugnabit sicut pollicitus est

11 hoc tantum diligentissime praecavete ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum

12 quod si volueritis gentium harum quae inter vos habitant erroribus adherere et cum eis miscere conubia atque amicitias copulare

13 iam nunc scitote quod Dominus Deus vester non eas deleat ante faciem vestram sed sint vobis in foveam ac laqueum et offendiculum ex latere vestro et sudes in oculis vestris donec vos auferat atque disperdat de terra hac optima quam tradidit vobis

14 en ego hodie ingrediar viam universae terrae et toto animo cognoscetis quod de omnibus verbis quae se Dominus praestaturum nobis esse pollicitus est unum non praeterierit in cassu

15 sicut ergo implevit opere quod promisit et prospera cuncta venerunt sic adducet super vos quicquid malorum comminatus est donec vos auferat atque disperdat de terra hac optima quam tradidit vobis

16 eo quod praeterieritis pactum Domini Dei vestri quod pepigit vobiscum et servieritis diis alienis et adoraveritis eos cito atque velociter consurget in vos furor Domini et auferemini de terra hac optima quam tradidit vobis

New International Version NIV

1 After a long time had passed and the LORD had given Israel rest from all their enemies around them, Joshua, by then a very old man,

2 summoned all Israel—their elders, leaders, judges and officials—and said to them: “I am very old.

3 You yourselves have seen everything the LORD your God has done to all these nations for your sake; it was the LORD your God who fought for you.

4 Remember how I have allotted as an inheritance for your tribes all the land of the nations that remain—the nations I conquered—between the Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea in the west.

5 The LORD your God himself will push them out for your sake. He will drive them out before you, and you will take possession of their land, as the LORD your God promised you.

6 “Be very strong; be careful to obey all that is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, without turning aside to the right or to the left.

7 Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; do not invoke the names of their gods or swear by them. You must not serve them or bow down to them.

8 But you are to hold fast to the LORD your God, as you have until now.

9 “The LORD has driven out before you great and powerful nations; to this day no one has been able to withstand you.

10 One of you routs a thousand, because the LORD your God fights for you, just as he promised.

11 So be very careful to love the LORD your God.

12 “But if you turn away and ally yourselves with the survivors of these nations that remain among you and if you intermarry with them and associate with them,

13 then you may be sure that the LORD your God will no longer drive out these nations before you. Instead, they will become snares and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land, which the LORD your God has given you.

14 “Now I am about to go the way of all the earth. You know with all your heart and soul that not one of all the good promises the LORD your God gave you has failed. Every promise has been fulfilled; not one has failed.

15 But just as all the good things the LORD your God has promised you have come to you, so he will bring on you all the evil things he has threatened, until the LORD your God has destroyed you from this good land he has given you.

16 If you violate the covenant of the LORD your God, which he commanded you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, the LORD’s anger will burn against you, and you will quickly perish from the good land he has given you.”
