Joshua 24:15

¶ And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

And if it seem evil {H7489} unto you {H4310} to serve {H5647} the LORD {H3068}, choose {H977} you this day {H3117} whom {H5869} ye will serve {H5647}; whether the gods {H430} which your fathers {H1} served {H5647} that were on the other side {H5676} of the flood {H5104}, or the gods {H430} of the Amorites {H567}, in whose land {H776} ye dwell {H3427}: but as for me and my house {H1004}, we will serve {H5647} the LORD {H3068}.

If it seems bad to you to serve ADONAI, then choose today whom you are going to serve! Will it be the gods your ancestors served beyond the River? or the gods of the Emori, in whose land you are living? As for me and my household, we will serve ADONAI!"

But if it is unpleasing in your sight to serve the LORD, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD!”

And if it seem evil unto you to serve Jehovah, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve Jehovah.
