ગુજરાતીયહોશુઆ ૨૪:૧૩
જે દેશ માટે તમે શ્રમ કર્યો નહોતો અને જે નગરો તમે બાંધ્યા નહોતાં તે મેં તમને આપ્યાં છે, હવે તમે તેમાં રહો છો. જે દ્રાક્ષવાડીઓ તથા જૈતૂનવાડીઓ તમે રોપી નહોતી તેઓનાં ફળ તમે ખાઓ છો.’”
हिन्दीयहोशू २४:१३
फिर मैंने तुम्हें ऐसा देश दिया जिसमें तुम ने परिश्रम न किया था, और ऐसे नगर भी दिए हैं जिन्हें तुम ने न बसाया था, और तुम उनमें बसे हो; और जिन दाख और जैतून के बगीचों के फल तुम खाते हो उन्हें तुम ने नहीं लगाया था।’

In context

11“‘You went over the Jordan, and came to Jericho. The men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I delivered them into your hand.

12I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow.

13I gave you a land on which you had not labored, and cities which you didn’t build, and you live in them. You eat of vineyards and olive groves which you didn’t plant.’

14“Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth. Put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, in Egypt; and serve the LORD.

15If it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose today whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
