If it seems evil to you to serve Yahweh, choose today whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh. | Now if you are unwilling to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served in the region beyond the River or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. |
Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to Yahweh, the God of Israel. | He said, “Then put away the foreign gods that are among you, and incline your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel.” |
