Contextual Overview
1 And it came to pass, after many days, when Yahweh had given rest unto Israel, from all their enemies round about, - and, Joshua, had become old, advanced in days, 2 that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, - and said unto them, I, am old, advanced in days; 3 but, ye, have seen - all that Yahweh your God hath done unto all those nations, because of you, - for, Yahweh your God, is he that hath fought for you. 4 Behold, I have allotted to you these nations which remain, as an inheritance, for your tribes, - from the Jordan, and all the nations which I have cut off, even unto the great sea, at the going in of the sun. 5 But, Yahweh your God - he, will thrust them out from before you, and drive them away out of your sight, - so shall ye possess their land, as Yahweh your God spoke unto you. 6 Therefore must ye be very firm to observe and to do all that is written in the scroll of the law of Moses, - so as not to turn aside therefrom, to the right hand or to the left; 7 so as not to go in among these nations, these which remain with you, - and, with the name of their gods, shall ye neither make memorial nor put on oath, and neither serve them, - nor bow down to them. 8 But, unto Yahweh your God, must ye cleave, - as, ye have done until this day; 9 therefore hath Yahweh dispossessed, from before you, nations great and strong, - but, as for you, not a man hath stood before you, until this day. 10 One man of you, can chase a thousand, - for, Yahweh your God, is he that fighteth for you, as he spake to you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But cleave unto the Lord your God,.... To his word, worship, and ordinances; externally, by close adherence to them, and strict observation of them; and internally, by strong affection to him, hope, trust, and confidence in him, expectation of all good things from him, and constant application to him for help in all times of need, and a fixed dependence on him:
as ye have done unto this day; that is, since they came into the land of Canaan, and had been under the government of Joshua; for otherwise, while in the wilderness, they frequently revolted from God, and murmured against him; and this is to be understood not of individuals, who doubtless were guilty of various failings and sins, but of the whole body, and with respect to any notorious offence, particularly idolatry, which they had not fallen into since they came into the land of Canaan, and had very lately shown great zeal against it; not only the tribes on this side, but those on the other side Jordan, as the preceding chapter largely relates.
