1 And a messenger of Jehovah will go up from Gilgal to Bochim, and he will say, I will bring you up out of Egypt, and I will bring you in to the land which I sware to your fathers; and he said I will not break my covenant with you forever. 2 And ye shall not cut out a covenant to the inhabitants of this land; their altars ye shall break down: and ye heard not to my voice: why did ye this? 3 And I also said, I will not drive them out from your face; and they were to you for adversaries, and their gods shall be to you for a snare. 4 And it will be when the messenger of Jehovah spake these words to all the sons of Israel, and the people will lift up their voice and weep. 5 And they will call the name of that place Bochim: and they will sacrifice there to Jehovah. 6 And Joshua will send away the people, and the sons of Israel will go a man to his inheritance to inherit the land. 7 And the people will serve Jehovah all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the old men who prolonged the days after Joshua, who saw all the great works of Jehovah which he did to Israel.
