Joshua 23:2-5 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

2. Joshua called all of Israel, and those greater by birth, and the leaders and rulers and teachers, and he said to them: "I am elderly and advanced in age.

3. And you yourselves discern all that the Lord your God has done with all the surrounding nations, in what manner he himself has fought for you.

4. And now, since he has divided to you by lot all the land, from the eastern part of the Jordan even to the great sea, and yet many nations still remain,

5. the Lord your God will destroy them, and he will take them away before your face, and you shall possess the land, just as he has promised you.
