24 And the people ^asaid to Joshua, “The Lord our God we will serve, and His voice we will obey!”

25 So Joshua ^amade a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance ^bin Shechem.

26 Then Joshua ^awrote these words in the Book of the Law of God. And he took ^ba large stone, and ^cset it up there ^dunder the oak that was by the sanctuary of the Lord.

27 And Joshua said to all the people, “Behold, this stone shall be ^aa witness to us, for ^bit has heard all the words of the Lord which He spoke to us. It shall therefore be a witness to you, lest you deny your God.”

28 So ^aJoshua let the people depart, each to his own inheritance.
