Joshua 22:31-23:5

New International Version

³¹ And Phinehas son of Eleazar, the priest, said to Reuben, Gad and Manasseh, “Today we know that the Lord is with us,^(A) because you have not been unfaithful to the Lord in this matter. Now you have rescued the Israelites from the Lord’s hand.”

³² Then Phinehas son of Eleazar, the priest, and the leaders returned to Canaan from their meeting with the Reubenites and Gadites in Gilead and reported to the Israelites.^{(B) 33} They were glad to hear the report and praised God.^(C) And they talked no more about going to war against them to devastate the country where the Reubenites and the Gadites lived.

³⁴ And the Reubenites and the Gadites gave the altar this name: A Witness^(D) Between Us—that the Lord is God.

Joshua’s Farewell to the Leaders

23 After a long time had passed and the Lord had given Israel rest^(E) from all their enemies around them, Joshua, by then a very old man,^{(F) 2} summoned all Israel—their elders,^(G) leaders, judges and officials^(H)—and said to them: “I am very old.^{(I) 3} You yourselves have seen everything the Lord your God has done to all these nations for your sake; it was the Lord your God who fought for you.^{(J) 4} Remember how I have allotted^(K) as an inheritance^(L) for your tribes all the land of the nations that remain—the nations I conquered—between the Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea^(M) in the west. ⁵ The Lord your God himself will push them out^(N) for your sake. He will drive them out^(O) before you, and you will take possession of their land, as the Lord your God promised you.^(P)
