JOSHUA 24:20-24   IF YE FORSAKE  THE LORD,  AND  SERVE STRANGE  gods,  THEN HE WILL  TURN AND DO  YOU HURT,  AND  CONSUME YOU,  AFTER THAT  HE HATH DONE  YOU GOOD.  AND  THE PEOPLE SAID UNTO JOSHUA, NAY;  BUT WE WILL SERVE THE LORD. AND  JOSHUA SAID  UNTO THE PEOPLE, YE ARE WITNESSES  AGAINST YOURSELVES THAT YE HAVE CHOSEN YOU THE LORD, TO SERVE HIM. AND THEY SAID, WE ARE WITNESSES. NOW THEREFORE PUT AWAY, SAID HE, THE STRANGE gods WHICH ARE AMONG YOU, AND INCLINE YOUR HEART UNTO THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL. AND THE PEOPLE SAITH UNTO JOSHUA, THE LORD OUR GOD WILL WE SERVE, AND HIS VOICE WILL WE OBEY. LOVE

PSALM 140:8-13 GRANT NOT, O LORD, THE DESIRES OF THE WICKED: FURTHER NOT HIS WICKED DEVICE; LEST THEY EXALT THEMSELVES. SELAH. AS FOR THE HEAD OF THOSE  THAT COMPASS ME ABOUT,  LET THE MISCHIEF  OF  THEIR OWN LIPS COVER THEM.  LET BURNING COALS  FALL UPON THEM:  LET THEM BE CAST  INTO THE FIRE;  INTO THE DEEP PITS,  THAT THEY  RISE NOT UP AGAIN.  LET NOT AN  EVIL SPEAKER  BE  ESTABLISHED  IN THE EARTH:  EVIL SHALL  HUNT THE  VIOLENT  MAN  TO  OVERTHROW HIM.   I KNOW THAT  THE LORD WILL  MAINTAIN  THE CAUSE OF THE AFFLICTED, AND  THE RIGHT OF THE POOR.  SURELY  THE RIGHTEOUS SHALL  GIVE THANKS UNTO  THY NAME:  THE UPRIGHT SHALL  DWELL IN THY PRESENCE.  LOVE
