Joshua 24:25-27
International Standard Version
25 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, making statutes and ordinances in Shechem. 26 He[a] wrote these words in the Book of the Law of God, took a large stone, moved it under the shade of[b] the oak tree that was near the sanctuary of the Lord, 27 and then[c] told all of the people, “Look! This stone will testify for us, because it has heard everything that the Lord has spoken to us. So it will stand as a witness against you in the event that you deny your God.”

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)
