06:024:024 And the people said unto Joshua, The lord our God will we
           serve, and his voice will we obey.

06:024:025 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and set
           them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.

06:024:026 And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God,
           and took a great stone, and set it up there under an oak, that
           was by the sanctuary of the lord.

06:024:027 And Joshua said unto all the people, Behold, this stone shall
           be a witness unto us; for it hath heard all the words of the
           lord which he spake unto us:  it shall be therefore a witness
           unto you, lest ye deny your God.

06:024:028 So Joshua let the people depart, every man unto his
           inheritance.

06:024:029 And it came to pass after these things, that Joshua the son of
           Nun, the servant of the lord, died, being an hundred and ten
           years old.

06:024:030 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in
           Timnathserah, which is in mount Ephraim, on the north side of
           the hill of Gaash.

06:024:031 And Israel served the lord all the days of Joshua, and all the
           days of the elders that overlived Joshua, and which had known
           all the works of the lord, that he had done for Israel.

06:024:032 And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought
           up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground
           which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem
           for an hundred pieces of silver:  and it became the inheritance
           of the children of Joseph.

06:024:033 And Eleazar the son of Aaron died; and they buried him in a
           hill that pertained to Phinehas his son, which was given him
           in mount Ephraim.

Book 07 Judges

07:001:001 Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the
           children of Israel asked the lord, saying, Who shall go up for
           us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?

07:001:002 And the lord said, Judah shall go up:  behold, I have delivered
           the land into his hand.

07:001:003 And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into
           my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I
           likewise will go with thee into thy lot.  So Simeon went with
           him.

07:001:004 And Judah went up; and the lord delivered the Canaanites and
           the Perizzites into their hand:  and they slew of them in Bezek
           ten thousand men.

07:001:005 And they found Adonibezek in Bezek:  and they fought against
           him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
