14 Now therefore fear the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place]; and serve you2f the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), choose you this day whom you2f will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Emori [Highlanders], in whose land you2f dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
16 And the people answered and said, God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] forbid that we should forsake the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to serve other gods;
23 Now therefore put away, [said he], the strange gods which [are] among you, and incline your heart unto the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
24 And the people said unto Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation], The LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] will we serve, and his voice will we obey.
