18 And the Lord drove out from before us all the people, including the Amorites who dwelt in the land. (A)We also will serve the Lord, for He is our God.”
19 But Joshua said to the people, (B)“You cannot serve the Lord, for He is a (C)holy God. He is (D)a jealous God; (E)He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins. 20 (F)If you forsake the Lord and serve foreign gods, (G)then He will turn and do you harm and consume you, after He has done you good.”
21 And the people said to Joshua, “No, but we will serve the Lord!”
22 So Joshua said to the people, “You are witnesses against yourselves that (H)you have chosen the Lord for yourselves, to serve Him.”
And they said, “We are witnesses!”

2 Kings 17:29-35
New King James Version
29 However every nation continued to make gods of its own, and put them (A)in the shrines on the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in the cities where they dwelt. 30 The men of (B)Babylon made Succoth Benoth, the men of Cuth made Nergal, the men of Hamath made Ashima, 31 (C)and the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites (D)burned their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim. 32 So they feared the Lord, (E)and from every class they appointed for themselves priests of the [a]high places, who sacrificed for them in the shrines of the high places. 33 (F)They feared the Lord, yet served their own gods—according to the rituals of the nations from among whom they were carried away.
34 To this day they continue practicing the former rituals; they do not fear the Lord, nor do they follow their statutes or their ordinances, or the law and commandment which the Lord had commanded the children of Jacob, (G)whom He named Israel, 35 with whom the Lord had made a covenant and charged them, saying: (H)“You shall not fear other gods, nor (I)bow down to them nor serve them nor sacrifice to them;
