2 and as for you, do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of this land – break down their altars.’ But you have not obeyed My voice. What is this you have done?
3 “Therefore I also said, ‘I am not driving them out before you, and they shall be adversaries to you, and their mighty ones shall be a snare to you.’ ”
4 And it came to be, when the Messenger of יהוה spoke these words to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, that the people lifted up their voice and wept.
5 So they called the name of that place Boḵim, and slaughtered there to יהוה.
6 Then Yehoshua dismissed the people, and the children of Yisra’ĕl went each to his own inheritance to possess the land.
7 And the people served יהוה all the days of Yehoshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Yehoshua, who had seen all the great works of יהוה which He had done for Yisra’ĕl.
8 And Yehoshua son of Nun, the servant of יהוה, died, one hundred and ten years old.
