Joshua 22:26-28

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁶ Therefore we said, Let us now work to build us an altar, not for burnt offering nor for sacrifice,

²⁷ but that it may be a witness between us and you and our generations after us, to do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings and with our sacrifices and with our peace offerings that your children may not say to our children in time to come, Ye have no part in the LORD.

²⁸ Therefore we said, that it shall be, if they should so say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may reply, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt offerings nor for sacrifices, but it is a witness between us and you.
