Joshua 24:25-33

New International Version

²⁵ On that day Joshua made a covenant^(A) for the people, and there at Shechem^(B) he reaffirmed for them decrees and laws.^{(C) 26} And Joshua recorded^(D) these things in the Book of the Law of God.^(E) Then he took a large stone^(F) and set it up there under the oak^(G) near the holy place of the Lord.

²⁷ “See!” he said to all the people. “This stone^(H) will be a witness^(I) against us. It has heard all the words the Lord has said to us. It will be a witness against you if you are untrue^(J) to your God.”^(K)

²⁸ Then Joshua dismissed the people, each to their own inheritance.^(L)

Buried in the Promised Land^(M)

²⁹ After these things, Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died^(N) at the age of a hundred and ten.^{(O) 30} And they buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath Serah^[a](P) in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.^(Q)

³¹ Israel served the Lord throughout the lifetime of Joshua and of the elders^(R) who outlived him and who had experienced everything the Lord had done for Israel.

³² And Joseph’s bones,^(S) which the Israelites had brought up from Egypt,^(T) were buried at Shechem in the tract of land^(U) that Jacob bought for a hundred pieces of silver^[b] from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem. This became the inheritance of Joseph’s descendants.

³³ And Eleazar son of Aaron^(V) died and was buried at Gibeah,^(W) which had been allotted to his son Phinehas^(X) in the hill country^(Y) of Ephraim.
