- After a long time had passed and the LORD had given Israel rest from all their enemies around them, Joshua, by then old and well advanced in years,
- summoned all Israel--their elders, leaders, judges and officials--and said to them: "I am old and well advanced in years.
- You yourselves have seen everything the LORD your God has done to all these nations for your sake; it was the LORD your God who fought for you.
- Remember how I have allotted as an inheritance for your tribes all the land of the nations that remain--the nations I conquered--between the Jordan and the Great Sea in the west.
- The LORD your God himself will drive them out of your way. He will push them out before you, and you will take possession of their land, as the LORD your God promised you.
