+ +05:001:013 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your + tribes, and I will make them rulers over you. + +05:001:014 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken + is good for us to do. + +05:001:015 So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and + made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and + captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and + captains over tens, and officers among your tribes. + +05:001:016 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the + causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between + every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him. + +05:001:017 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear + the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the + face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is + too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it. + +05:001:018 And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye + should do. + +05:001:019 And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that + great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the + mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; + and we came to Kadeshbarnea. + +05:001:020 And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the + Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us. + +05:001:021 Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up + and possess it, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto + thee; fear not, neither be discouraged. + +05:001:022 And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will + send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and + bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what + cities we shall come. + +05:001:023 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, + one of a tribe: + +05:001:024 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto + the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out. + +05:001:025 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and + brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, + It is a good land which the LORD our God doth give us. + +05:001:026 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the + commandment of the LORD your God: + +05:001:027 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD + hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, + to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us. + +05:001:028 Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our + heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the + cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have + seen the sons of the Anakims there. + +05:001:029 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them. + +05:001:030 The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for + you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your + eyes; + +05:001:031 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD + thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way + that ye went, until ye came into this place. + +05:001:032 Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God, + +05:001:033 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to + pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by what way + ye should go, and in a cloud by day. + +05:001:034 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and + sware, saying, + +05:001:035 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil + generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto your + fathers. + +05:001:036 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him + will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his + children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD. + +05:001:037 Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou + also shalt not go in thither. + +05:001:038 But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he + shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel + to inherit it. + +05:001:039 Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and + your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good + and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give + it, and they shall possess it. + +05:001:040 But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the + wilderness by the way of the Red sea. + +05:001:041 Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the + LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD + our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his + weapons of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill. + +05:001:042 And the LORD said unto me, Say unto them. Go not up, neither + fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your + enemies. + +05:001:043 So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled + against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously + up into the hill. + +05:001:044 And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out + against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in + Seir, even unto Hormah. + +05:001:045 And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would + not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you. + +05:001:046 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that + ye abode there. + +05:002:001 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by + the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we + compassed mount Seir many days. + +05:002:002 And the LORD spake unto me, saying, + +05:002:003 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you + northward. + +05:002:004 And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through + the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell + in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed + unto yourselves therefore: + +05:002:005 Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, + no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount + Seir unto Esau for a possession. + +05:002:006 Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye + shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink. + +05:002:007 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy + hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: + these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou + hast lacked nothing. + +05:002:008 And when we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, + which dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, + and from Eziongaber, we turned and passed by the way of the + wilderness of Moab. + +05:002:009 And the LORD said unto me, Distress not the Moabites, neither + contend with them in battle: for I will not give thee of their + land for a possession; because I have given Ar unto the + children of Lot for a possession. + +05:002:010 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and + many, and tall, as the Anakims; + +05:002:011 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the + Moabites called them Emims. + +05:002:012 The Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the children of + Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before + them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of + his possession, which the LORD gave unto them. + +05:002:013 Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered. And we + went over the brook Zered. + +05:002:014 And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea, until we + were come over the brook Zered, was thirty and eight years; + until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out + from among the host, as the LORD sware unto them. + +05:002:015 For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy + them from among the host, until they were consumed. + +05:002:016 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and + dead from among the people, + +05:002:017 That the LORD spake unto me, saying, + +05:002:018 Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day: + +05:002:019 And when thou comest nigh over against the children of Ammon, + distress them not, nor meddle with them: for I will not give + thee of the land of the children of Ammon any possession; + because I have given it unto the children of Lot for a + possession. + +05:002:020 (That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt + therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims; + +05:002:021 A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the + LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and + dwelt in their stead: + +05:002:022 As he did to the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, when + he destroyed the Horims from before them; and they succeeded + them, and dwelt in their stead even unto this day: + +05:002:023 And the Avims which dwelt in Hazerim, even unto Azzah, the + Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, + and dwelt in their stead.) + +05:002:024 Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon: + behold, I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king + of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possess it, and contend + with him in battle. + +05:002:025 This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of + thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who + shall hear report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in + anguish because of thee. + +05:002:026 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto + Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying, + +05:002:027 Let me pass through thy land: I will go along by the high way, + I will neither turn unto the right hand nor to the left. + +05:002:028 Thou shalt sell me meat for money, that I may eat; and give me + water for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on + my feet; + +05:002:029 (As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites + which dwell in Ar, did unto me;) until I shall pass over + Jordan into the land which the LORD our God giveth us. + +05:002:030 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him: for + the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart + obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as + appeareth this day. + +05:002:031 And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon + and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest + inherit his land. + +05:002:032 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to + fight at Jahaz. + +05:002:033 And the LORD our God delivered him before us; and we smote + him, and his sons, and all his people. + +05:002:034 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed + the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we + left none to remain: + +05:002:035 Only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, and the + spoil of the cities which we took. + +05:002:036 From Aroer, which is by the brink of the river of Arnon, and + from the city that is by the river, even unto Gilead, there + was not one city too strong for us: the LORD our God delivered + all unto us: + +05:002:037 Only unto the land of the children of Ammon thou camest not, + nor unto any place of the river Jabbok, nor unto the cities in + the mountains, nor unto whatsoever the LORD our God forbad us. + +05:003:001 Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan: and Og the king + of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to + battle at Edrei. + +05:003:002 And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver + him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou + shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the + Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon. + +05:003:003 So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king + of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was + left to him remaining. + +05:003:004 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city + which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region + of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan. + +05:003:005 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; + beside unwalled towns a great many. + +05:003:006 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of + Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of + every city. + +05:003:007 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a + prey to ourselves. + +05:003:008 And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of + the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan, from the + river of Arnon unto mount Hermon; + +05:003:009 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call + it Shenir;) + +05:003:010 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, + unto Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan. + +05:003:011 For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; + behold his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in + Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length + thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of + a man. + +05:003:012 And this land, which we possessed at that time, from Aroer, + which is by the river Arnon, and half mount Gilead, and the + cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites. + +05:003:013 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of + Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of + Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants. + +05:003:014 Jair the son of Manasseh took all the country of Argob unto + the coasts of Geshuri and Maachathi; and called them after his + own name, Bashanhavothjair, unto this day. + +05:003:015 And I gave Gilead unto Machir. + +05:003:016 And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from + Gilead even unto the river Arnon half the valley, and the + border even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the + children of Ammon; + +05:003:017 The plain also, and Jordan, and the coast thereof, from + Chinnereth even unto the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, + under Ashdothpisgah eastward. + +05:003:018 And I commanded you at that time, saying, The LORD your God + hath given you this land to possess it: ye shall pass over + armed before your brethren the children of Israel, all that + are meet for the war. + +05:003:019 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I + know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities + which I have given you; + +05:003:020 Until the LORD have given rest unto your brethren, as well as + unto you, and until they also possess the land which the LORD + your God hath given them beyond Jordan: and then shall ye + return every man unto his possession, which I have given you. + +05:003:021 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have + seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto these two + kings: so shall the LORD do unto all the kingdoms whither thou + passest. + +05:003:022 Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight + for you. + +05:003:023 And I besought the LORD at that time, saying, + +05:003:024 O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, + and thy mighty hand: for what God is there in heaven or in + earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to + thy might? + +05:003:025 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is + beyond Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon. + +05:003:026 But the LORD was wroth with me for your sakes, and would not + hear me: and the LORD said unto me, Let it suffice thee; speak + no more unto me of this matter. + +05:003:027 Get thee up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes + westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and + behold it with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this + Jordan. + +05:003:028 But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him: for + he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them + to inherit the land which thou shalt see. + +05:003:029 So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor. + +05:004:001 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto + the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may + live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of + your fathers giveth you. + +05:004:002 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither + shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the + commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. + +05:004:003 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baalpeor: for + all the men that followed Baalpeor, the LORD thy God hath + destroyed them from among you. + +05:004:004 But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every + one of you this day. + +05:004:005 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the + LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land + whither ye go to possess it. + +05:004:006 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your + understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear + all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a + wise and understanding people. + +05:004:007 For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto + them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon + him for? + +05:004:008 And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and + judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you + this day? + +05:004:009 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest + thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest + they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach + them thy sons, and thy sons' sons; + +05:004:010 Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God + in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people + together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may + learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the + earth, and that they may teach their children. + +05:004:011 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the + mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with + darkness, clouds, and thick darkness. + +05:004:012 And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye + heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye + heard a voice. + +05:004:013 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you + to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two + tables of stone. + +05:004:014 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes + and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go + over to possess it. + +05:004:015 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no + manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you + in Horeb out of the midst of the fire: + +05:004:016 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the + similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female, + +05:004:017 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness + of any winged fowl that flieth in the air, + +05:004:018 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the + likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth: + +05:004:019 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou + seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host + of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve + them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations + under the whole heaven. + +05:004:020 But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the + iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of + inheritance, as ye are this day. + +05:004:021 Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and + sware that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not + go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee + for an inheritance: + +05:004:022 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye + shall go over, and possess that good land. + +05:004:023 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the + LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven + image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God + hath forbidden thee. + +05:004:024 For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. + +05:004:025 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and + ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt + yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any + thing, and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to + provoke him to anger: + +05:004:026 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that + ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go + over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon + it, but shall utterly be destroyed. + +05:004:027 And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall + be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD + shall lead you. + +05:004:028 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood + and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. + +05:004:029 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou + shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with + all thy soul. + +05:004:030 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come + upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD + thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; + +05:004:031 (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake + thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy + fathers which he sware unto them. + +05:004:032 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, + since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask + from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath + been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard + like it? + +05:004:033 Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the + midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live? + +05:004:034 Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst + of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, + and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, + and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God + did for you in Egypt before your eyes? + +05:004:035 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the LORD + he is God; there is none else beside him. + +05:004:036 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might + instruct thee: and upon earth he shewed thee his great fire; + and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire. + +05:004:037 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their + seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his + mighty power out of Egypt; + +05:004:038 To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier + than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for + an inheritance, as it is this day. + +05:004:039 Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that + the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth + beneath: there is none else. + +05:004:040 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, + which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, + and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong + thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, + for ever. + +05:004:041 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the + sunrising; + +05:004:042 That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his + neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that + fleeing unto one of these cities he might live: + +05:004:043 Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the + Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in + Bashan, of the Manassites. + +05:004:044 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of + Israel: + +05:004:045 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the + judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, + after they came forth out of Egypt. + +05:004:046 On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in + the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, + whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were + come forth out of Egypt: + +05:004:047 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of + Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side + Jordan toward the sunrising; + +05:004:048 From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto + mount Sion, which is Hermon, + +05:004:049 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the + sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah. + +05:005:001 And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O + Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears + this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them. + +05:005:002 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. + +05:005:003 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, + even us, who are all of us here alive this day. + +05:005:004 The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the + midst of the fire, + +05:005:005 (I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to shew you + the word of the LORD: for ye were afraid by reason of the + fire, and went not up into the mount;) saying, + +05:005:006 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of + Egypt, from the house of bondage. + +05:005:007 Thou shalt have none other gods before me. + +05:005:008 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of + any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth + beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth: + +05:005:009 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for + I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of + the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth + generation of them that hate me, + +05:005:010 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep + my commandments. + +05:005:011 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for + the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in + vain. + +05:005:012 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath + commanded thee. + +05:005:013 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work: + +05:005:014 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it + thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy + daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine + ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger + that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy + maidservant may rest as well as thou. + +05:005:015 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, + and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a + mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy + God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day. + +05:005:016 Honour thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath + commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it + may go well with thee, in the land which the LORD thy God + giveth thee. + +05:005:017 Thou shalt not kill. + +05:005:018 Neither shalt thou commit adultery. + +05:005:019 Neither shalt thou steal. + +05:005:020 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour. + +05:005:021 Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour's wife, neither shalt + thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, or his + manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any + thing that is thy neighbour's. + +05:005:022 These words the LORD spake unto all your assembly in the mount + out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick + darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he + wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me. + +05:005:023 And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst + of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that + ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and + your elders; + +05:005:024 And ye said, Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory + and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the + midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk + with man, and he liveth. + +05:005:025 Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will + consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, + then we shall die. + +05:005:026 For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of + the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we + have, and lived? + +05:005:027 Go thou near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: + and speak thou unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak + unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it. + +05:005:028 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto + me; and the LORD said unto me, I have heard the voice of the + words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they + have well said all that they have spoken. + +05:005:029 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear + me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well + with them, and with their children for ever! + +05:005:030 Go say to them, Get you into your tents again. + +05:005:031 But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto + thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the + judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them + in the land which I give them to possess it. + +05:005:032 Ye shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God hath + commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to + the left. + +05:005:033 Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath + commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with + you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye + shall possess. + +05:006:001 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the + judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, + that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: + +05:006:002 That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his + statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and + thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that + thy days may be prolonged. + +05:006:003 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be + well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD + God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that + floweth with milk and honey. + +05:006:004 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: + +05:006:005 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and + with all thy soul, and with all thy might. + +05:006:006 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in + thine heart: + +05:006:007 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and + shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when + thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when + thou risest up. + +05:006:008 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they + shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. + +05:006:009 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on + thy gates. + +05:006:010 And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee + into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to + Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, + which thou buildedst not, + +05:006:011 And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, + and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive + trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten + and be full; + +05:006:012 Then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee + forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. + +05:006:013 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt + swear by his name. + +05:006:014 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people + which are round about you; + +05:006:015 (For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the + anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy + thee from off the face of the earth. + +05:006:016 Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in + Massah. + +05:006:017 Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your + God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath + commanded thee. + +05:006:018 And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of + the LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest + go in and possess the good land which the LORD sware unto thy + fathers. + +05:006:019 To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the LORD + hath spoken. + +05:006:020 And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What + mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, + which the LORD our God hath commanded you? + +05:006:021 Then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh's bondmen in + Egypt; and the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty + hand: + +05:006:022 And the LORD shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon + Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our + eyes: + +05:006:023 And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, + to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers. + +05:006:024 And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear + the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve + us alive, as it is at this day. + +05:006:025 And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all + these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath + commanded us. + +05:007:001 When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither + thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations + before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the + Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the + Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier + than thou; + +05:007:002 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou + shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no + covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them: + +05:007:003 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou + shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take + unto thy son. + +05:007:004 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they + may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled + against you, and destroy thee suddenly. + +05:007:005 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their + altars, and break down their images, and cut down their + groves, and burn their graven images with fire. + +05:007:006 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD + thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, + above all people that are upon the face of the earth. + +05:007:007 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, + because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were + the fewest of all people: + +05:007:008 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the + oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD + brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of + the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. + +05:007:009 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful + God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him + and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; + +05:007:010 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy + them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will + repay him to his face. + +05:007:011 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, + and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them. + +05:007:012 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these + judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall + keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto + thy fathers: + +05:007:013 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he + will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy + land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of + thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he + sware unto thy fathers to give thee. + +05:007:014 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be + male or female barren among you, or among your cattle. + +05:007:015 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will + put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, + upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee. + +05:007:016 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God + shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them: + neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare + unto thee. + +05:007:017 If thou shalt say in thine heart, These nations are more than + I; how can I dispossess them? + +05:007:018 Thou shalt not be afraid of them: but shalt well remember what + the LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt; + +05:007:019 The great temptations which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and + the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the stretched out arm, + whereby the LORD thy God brought thee out: so shall the LORD + thy God do unto all the people of whom thou art afraid. + +05:007:020 Moreover the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them, + until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be + destroyed. + +05:007:021 Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God is + among you, a mighty God and terrible. + +05:007:022 And the LORD thy God will put out those nations before thee by + little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest + the beasts of the field increase upon thee. + +05:007:023 But the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee, and shall + destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they be + destroyed. + +05:007:024 And he shall deliver their kings into thine hand, and thou + shalt destroy their name from under heaven: there shall no man + be able to stand before thee, until thou have destroyed them. + +05:007:025 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou + shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take + it unto thee, lest thou be snared therin: for it is an + abomination to the LORD thy God. + +05:007:026 Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thine house, lest + thou be a cursed thing like it: but thou shalt utterly detest + it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed thing. + +05:008:001 All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye + observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and + possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers. + +05:008:002 And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led + thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and + to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou + wouldest keep his commandments, or no. + +05:008:003 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee + with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers + know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by + bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth + of the LORD doth man live. + +05:008:004 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot + swell, these forty years. + +05:008:005 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man + chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee. + +05:008:006 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy + God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him. + +05:008:007 For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of + brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of + valleys and hills; + +05:008:008 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and + pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey; + +05:008:009 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou + shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, + and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass. + +05:008:010 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the + LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee. + +05:008:011 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping + his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I + command thee this day: + +05:008:012 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly + houses, and dwelt therein; + +05:008:013 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and + thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied; + +05:008:014 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy + God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from + the house of bondage; + +05:008:015 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, + wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where + there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the + rock of flint; + +05:008:016 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers + knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove + thee, to do thee good at thy latter end; + +05:008:017 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine + hand hath gotten me this wealth. + +05:008:018 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that + giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his + covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. + +05:008:019 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, + and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I + testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish. + +05:008:020 As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so + shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the + voice of the LORD your God. + +05:009:001 Hear, O Israel: Thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go + in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, + cities great and fenced up to heaven, + +05:009:002 A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom + thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand + before the children of Anak! + +05:009:003 Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God is he + which goeth over before thee; as a consuming fire he shall + destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so + shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the + LORD hath said unto thee. + +05:009:004 Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God + hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my + righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this + land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth + drive them out from before thee. + +05:009:005 Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine + heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the + wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them + out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which + the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. + +05:009:006 Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not + this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou + art a stiffnecked people. + +05:009:007 Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God + to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst + depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this + place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD. + +05:009:008 Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD + was angry with you to have destroyed you. + +05:009:009 When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of + stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made + with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty + nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water: + +05:009:010 And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written + with the finger of God; and on them was written according to + all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out + of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly. + +05:009:011 And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, + that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables + of the covenant. + +05:009:012 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from + hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of + Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside + out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a + molten image. + +05:009:013 Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this + people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: + +05:009:014 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name + from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier + and greater than they. + +05:009:015 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned + with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two + hands. + +05:009:016 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your + God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside + quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you. + +05:009:017 And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, + and brake them before your eyes. + +05:009:018 And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days + and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, + because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in + the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. + +05:009:019 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith + the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD + hearkened unto me at that time also. + +05:009:020 And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: + and I prayed for Aaron also the same time. + +05:009:021 And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it + with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even + until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof + into the brook that descended out of the mount. + +05:009:022 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, ye + provoked the LORD to wrath. + +05:009:023 Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying, Go + up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye + rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye + believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice. + +05:009:024 Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I + knew you. + +05:009:025 Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty nights, + as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he + would destroy you. + +05:009:026 I prayed therefore unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, + destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast + redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth + out of Egypt with a mighty hand. + +05:009:027 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not + unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, + nor to their sin: + +05:009:028 Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the + LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he + promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them + out to slay them in the wilderness. + +05:009:029 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou + broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out + arm. + +05:010:001 At that time the LORD said unto me, Hew thee two tables of + stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, + and make thee an ark of wood. + +05:010:002 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the + first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in + the ark. + +05:010:003 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of + stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having + the two tables in mine hand. + +05:010:004 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, + the ten commandments, which the LORD spake unto you in the + mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: + and the LORD gave them unto me. + +05:010:005 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the + tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the + LORD commanded me. + +05:010:006 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of + the children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there + he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's + office in his stead. + +05:010:007 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to + Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters. + +05:010:008 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the + ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to + minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day. + +05:010:009 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; + the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God + promised him. + +05:010:010 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty + days and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me at that + time also, and the LORD would not destroy thee. + +05:010:011 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the + people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I + sware unto their fathers to give unto them. + +05:010:012 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, + but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to + love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and + with all thy soul, + +05:010:013 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which + I command thee this day for thy good? + +05:010:014 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's thy + God, the earth also, with all that therein is. + +05:010:015 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and + he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as + it is this day. + +05:010:016 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no + more stiffnecked. + +05:010:017 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a + great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not + persons, nor taketh reward: + +05:010:018 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and + loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. + +05:010:019 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the + land of Egypt. + +05:010:020 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to + him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name. + +05:010:021 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee + these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen. + +05:010:022 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten + persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars + of heaven for multitude. + +05:011:001 Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his + charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his + commandments, alway. + +05:011:002 And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which + have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of + the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his + stretched out arm, + +05:011:003 And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of + Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land; + +05:011:004 And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and + to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to + overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath + destroyed them unto this day; + +05:011:005 And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into + this place; + +05:011:006 And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the + son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed + them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the + substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all + Israel: + +05:011:007 But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which + he did. + +05:011:008 Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command + you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the + land, whither ye go to possess it; + +05:011:009 And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD + sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a + land that floweth with milk and honey. + +05:011:010 For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as + the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst + thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of + herbs: + +05:011:011 But the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills + and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven: + +05:011:012 A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD + thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year + even unto the end of the year. + +05:011:013 And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto + my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD + your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all + your soul, + +05:011:014 That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, + the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in + thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil. + +05:011:015 And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou + mayest eat and be full. + +05:011:016 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and + ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; + +05:011:017 And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut + up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield + not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good + land which the LORD giveth you. + +05:011:018 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in + your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they + may be as frontlets between your eyes. + +05:011:019 And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when + thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, + when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. + +05:011:020 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, + and upon thy gates: + +05:011:021 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your + children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers + to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth. + +05:011:022 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I + command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in + all his ways, and to cleave unto him; + +05:011:023 Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before + you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than + yourselves. + +05:011:024 Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall + be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the + river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast + be. + +05:011:025 There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD + your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon + all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto + you. + +05:011:026 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; + +05:011:027 A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, + which I command you this day: + +05:011:028 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD + your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you + this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known. + +05:011:029 And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought + thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that + thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse + upon mount Ebal. + +05:011:030 Are they not on the other side Jordan, by the way where the + sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites, which dwell in + the champaign over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh? + +05:011:031 For ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land + which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, + and dwell therein. + +05:011:032 And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments + which I set before you this day. + +05:012:001 These are the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe + to do in the land, which the LORD God of thy fathers giveth + thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon the earth. + +05:012:002 Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations + which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high + mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree: + +05:012:003 And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, + and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the + graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out + of that place. + +05:012:004 Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God. + +05:012:005 But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of + all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his + habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come: + +05:012:006 And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your + sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, + and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings + of your herds and of your flocks: + +05:012:007 And there ye shall eat before the LORD your God, and ye shall + rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your + households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee. + +05:012:008 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, + every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes. + +05:012:009 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, + which the LORD your God giveth you. + +05:012:010 But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which the + LORD your God giveth you to inherit, and when he giveth you + rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in + safety; + +05:012:011 Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall + choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye + bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your + sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, + and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD: + +05:012:012 And ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God, ye, and your + sons, and your daughters, and your menservants, and your + maidservants, and the Levite that is within your gates; + forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with you. + +05:012:013 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings + in every place that thou seest: + +05:012:014 But in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of thy + tribes, there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there + thou shalt do all that I command thee. + +05:012:015 Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy + gates, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, according to the + blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee: the + unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and + as of the hart. + +05:012:016 Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the + earth as water. + +05:012:017 Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or + of thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy herds or + of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy + freewill offerings, or heave offering of thine hand: + +05:012:018 But thou must eat them before the LORD thy God in the place + which the LORD thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and + thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the + Levite that is within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before + the LORD thy God in all that thou puttest thine hands unto. + +05:012:019 Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long + as thou livest upon the earth. + +05:012:020 When the LORD thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he hath + promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh, because + thy soul longeth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, + whatsoever thy soul lusteth after. + +05:012:021 If the place which the LORD thy God hath chosen to put his + name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy + herd and of thy flock, which the LORD hath given thee, as I + have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in thy gates + whatsoever thy soul lusteth after. + +05:012:022 Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat + them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike. + +05:012:023 Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the + life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. + +05:012:024 Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as + water. + +05:012:025 Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with + thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is + right in the sight of the LORD. + +05:012:026 Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt + take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose: + +05:012:027 And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the + blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God: and the blood of + thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD + thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh. + +05:012:028 Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it + may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for + ever, when thou doest that which is good and right in the + sight of the LORD thy God. + +05:012:029 When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from before + thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest + them, and dwellest in their land; + +05:012:030 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following + them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that + thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these + nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. + +05:012:031 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every + abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto + their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have + burnt in the fire to their gods. + +05:012:032 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt + not add thereto, nor diminish from it. + +05:013:001 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, + and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, + +05:013:002 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto + thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not + known, and let us serve them; + +05:013:003 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that + dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know + whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with + all your soul. + +05:013:004 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep + his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, + and cleave unto him. + +05:013:005 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to + death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD + your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and + redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out + of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. + So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee. + +05:013:006 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy + daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as + thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and + serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy + fathers; + +05:013:007 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, + nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the + earth even unto the other end of the earth; + +05:013:008 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither + shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither + shalt thou conceal him: + +05:013:009 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon + him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the + people. + +05:013:010 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he + hath sought to thrust thee away from the LORD thy God, which + brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of + bondage. + +05:013:011 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any + such wickedness as this is among you. + +05:013:012 If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD + thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying, + +05:013:013 Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among + you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, + Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known; + +05:013:014 Then shalt thou enquire, and make search, and ask diligently; + and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such + abomination is wrought among you; + +05:013:015 Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the + edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is + therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword. + +05:013:016 And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of + the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all + the spoil thereof every whit, for the LORD thy God: and it + shall be an heap for ever; it shall not be built again. + +05:013:017 And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine + hand: that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, + and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and + multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers; + +05:013:018 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to + keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do + that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God. + +05:014:001 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut + yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the + dead. + +05:014:002 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the + LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, + above all the nations that are upon the earth. + +05:014:003 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing. + +05:014:004 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, + and the goat, + +05:014:005 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild + goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois. + +05:014:006 And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft + into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye + shall eat. + +05:014:007 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, + or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the + hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the + hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you. + +05:014:008 And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not + the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their + flesh, nor touch their dead carcase. + +05:014:009 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that + have fins and scales shall ye eat: + +05:014:010 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is + unclean unto you. + +05:014:011 Of all clean birds ye shall eat. + +05:014:012 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and + the ossifrage, and the ospray, + +05:014:013 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind, + +05:014:014 And every raven after his kind, + +05:014:015 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk + after his kind, + +05:014:016 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan, + +05:014:017 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant, + +05:014:018 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, + and the bat. + +05:014:019 And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they + shall not be eaten. + +05:014:020 But of all clean fowls ye may eat. + +05:014:021 Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: thou shalt + give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may + eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an + holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid + in his mother's milk. + +05:014:022 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the + field bringeth forth year by year. + +05:014:023 And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which + he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy + corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy + herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the + LORD thy God always. + +05:014:024 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able + to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the + LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD + thy God hath blessed thee: + +05:014:025 Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in + thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God + shall choose: + +05:014:026 And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul + lusteth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for + strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul desireth: and thou + shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt + rejoice, thou, and thine household, + +05:014:027 And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not + forsake him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee. + +05:014:028 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe + of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within + thy gates: + +05:014:029 And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with + thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, + which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be + satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the + work of thine hand which thou doest. + +05:015:001 At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release. + +05:015:002 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that + lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall + not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it + is called the LORD's release. + +05:015:003 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is + thine with thy brother thine hand shall release; + +05:015:004 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall + greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth + thee for an inheritance to possess it: + +05:015:005 Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy + God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command + thee this day. + +05:015:006 For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and + thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; + and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not + reign over thee. + +05:015:007 If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within + any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth + thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand + from thy poor brother: + +05:015:008 But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely + lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth. + +05:015:009 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, + saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and + thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest + him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be + sin unto thee. + +05:015:010 Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be + grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing + the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all + that thou puttest thine hand unto. + +05:015:011 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I + command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy + brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land. + +05:015:012 And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold + unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year + thou shalt let him go free from thee. + +05:015:013 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not + let him go away empty: + +05:015:014 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of + thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the + LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him. + +05:015:015 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land + of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I + command thee this thing to day. + +05:015:016 And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from + thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is + well with thee; + +05:015:017 Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust it through his ear + unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also + unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise. + +05:015:018 It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away + free from thee; for he hath been worth a double hired servant + to thee, in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall + bless thee in all that thou doest. + +05:015:019 All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock + thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no + work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the + firstling of thy sheep. + +05:015:020 Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in the + place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household. + +05:015:021 And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or + blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it + unto the LORD thy God. + +05:015:022 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean + person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart. + +05:015:023 Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it + upon the ground as water. + +05:016:001 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the LORD + thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought + thee forth out of Egypt by night. + +05:016:002 Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the LORD thy + God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the LORD + shall choose to place his name there. + +05:016:003 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt + thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of + affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in + haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest + forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life. + +05:016:004 And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy + coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, + which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all + night until the morning. + +05:016:005 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy + gates, which the LORD thy God giveth thee: + +05:016:006 But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place + his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, + at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest + forth out of Egypt. + +05:016:007 And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which the LORD + thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and + go unto thy tents. + +05:016:008 Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh + day shall be a solemn assembly to the LORD thy God: thou shalt + do no work therein. + +05:016:009 Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the + seven weeks from such time as thou beginnest to put the sickle + to the corn. + +05:016:010 And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the LORD thy God + with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand, which + thou shalt give unto the LORD thy God, according as the LORD + thy God hath blessed thee: + +05:016:011 And thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God, thou, and thy + son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy + maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the + stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are among + you, in the place which the LORD thy God hath chosen to place + his name there. + +05:016:012 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and + thou shalt observe and do these statutes. + +05:016:013 Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after + that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine: + +05:016:014 And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and + thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the + Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that + are within thy gates. + +05:016:015 Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the LORD thy + God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because the LORD + thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the + works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice. + +05:016:016 Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the + LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast + of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the + feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the + LORD empty: + +05:016:017 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing + of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee. + +05:016:018 Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, + which the LORD thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and + they shall judge the people with just judgment. + +05:016:019 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, + neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the + wise, and pervert the words of the righteous. + +05:016:020 That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou + mayest live, and inherit the land which the LORD thy God + giveth thee. + +05:016:021 Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the + altar of the LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee. + +05:016:022 Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the LORD thy + God hateth. + +05:017:001 Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the LORD thy God any bullock, or + sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness: for that + is an abomination unto the LORD thy God. + +05:017:002 If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the + LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought + wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing + his covenant, + +05:017:003 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, + either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I + have not commanded; + +05:017:004 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired + diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, + that such abomination is wrought in Israel: + +05:017:005 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have + committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or + that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die. + +05:017:006 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he + that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of + one witness he shall not be put to death. + +05:017:007 The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him + to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou + shalt put the evil away from among you. + +05:017:008 If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between + blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and + stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then + shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the + LORD thy God shall choose; + +05:017:009 And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the + judge that shall be in those days, and enquire; and they shall + shew thee the sentence of judgment: + +05:017:010 And thou shalt do according to the sentence, which they of + that place which the LORD shall choose shall shew thee; and + thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform + thee: + +05:017:011 According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach + thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell + thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence + which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the + left. + +05:017:012 And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken + unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the + LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and + thou shalt put away the evil from Israel. + +05:017:013 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more + presumptuously. + +05:017:014 When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth + thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt + say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that + are about me; + +05:017:015 Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD + thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou + set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, + which is not thy brother. + +05:017:016 But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the + people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply + horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall + henceforth return no more that way. + +05:017:017 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart + turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself + silver and gold. + +05:017:018 And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his + kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book + out of that which is before the priests the Levites: + +05:017:019 And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the + days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, + to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do + them: + +05:017:020 That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that + he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or + to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his + kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel. + +05:018:001 The priests the Levites, and all the tribe of Levi, shall have + no part nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the + offerings of the LORD made by fire, and his inheritance. + +05:018:002 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: + the LORD is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them. + +05:018:003 And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them + that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they + shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, + and the maw. + +05:018:004 The firstfruit also of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine + oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, shalt thou give + him. + +05:018:005 For the LORD thy God hath chosen him out of all thy tribes, to + stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons + for ever. + +05:018:006 And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, + where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind + unto the place which the LORD shall choose; + +05:018:007 Then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all + his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before the + LORD. + +05:018:008 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh + of the sale of his patrimony. + +05:018:009 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth + thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of + those nations. + +05:018:010 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son + or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth + divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a + witch. + +05:018:011 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a + wizard, or a necromancer. + +05:018:012 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: + and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive + them out from before thee. + +05:018:013 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God. + +05:018:014 For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto + observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the + LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do. + +05:018:015 The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the + midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye + shall hearken; + +05:018:016 According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in + Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear + again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this + great fire any more, that I die not. + +05:018:017 And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which + they have spoken. + +05:018:018 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like + unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall + speak unto them all that I shall command him. + +05:018:019 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken + unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require + it of him. + +05:018:020 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my + name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall + speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. + +05:018:021 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word + which the LORD hath not spoken? + +05:018:022 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing + follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD + hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it + presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him. + +05:019:001 When the LORD thy God hath cut off the nations, whose land the + LORD thy God giveth thee, and thou succeedest them, and + dwellest in their cities, and in their houses; + +05:019:002 Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of thy + land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it. + +05:019:003 Thou shalt prepare thee a way, and divide the coasts of thy + land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit, into + three parts, that every slayer may flee thither. + +05:019:004 And this is the case of the slayer, which shall flee thither, + that he may live: Whoso killeth his neighbour ignorantly, whom + he hated not in time past; + +05:019:005 As when a man goeth into the wood with his neighbour to hew + wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down + the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and lighteth + upon his neighbour, that he die; he shall flee unto one of + those cities, and live: + +05:019:006 Lest the avenger of the blood pursue the slayer, while his + heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and + slay him; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he + hated him not in time past. + +05:019:007 Wherefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate three + cities for thee. + +05:019:008 And if the LORD thy God enlarge thy coast, as he hath sworn + unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised + to give unto thy fathers; + +05:019:009 If thou shalt keep all these commandments to do them, which I + command thee this day, to love the LORD thy God, and to walk + ever in his ways; then shalt thou add three cities more for + thee, beside these three: + +05:019:010 That innocent blood be not shed in thy land, which the LORD + thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and so blood be upon + thee. + +05:019:011 But if any man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, + and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he die, + and fleeth into one of these cities: + +05:019:012 Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, + and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he + may die. + +05:019:013 Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the + guilt of innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with + thee. + +05:019:014 Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of + old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt + inherit in the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee to + possess it. + +05:019:015 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, + or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of + two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the + matter be established. + +05:019:016 If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against + him that which is wrong; + +05:019:017 Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall + stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges, + which shall be in those days; + +05:019:018 And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, + if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely + against his brother; + +05:019:019 Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto + his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you. + +05:019:020 And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall + henceforth commit no more any such evil among you. + +05:019:021 And thine eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye + for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. + +05:020:001 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest + horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not + afraid of them: for the LORD thy God is with thee, which + brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. + +05:020:002 And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that + the priest shall approach and speak unto the people, + +05:020:003 And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day + unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, + fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because + of them; + +05:020:004 For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for + you against your enemies, to save you. + +05:020:005 And the officers shall speak unto the people, saying, What man + is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated + it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the + battle, and another man dedicate it. + +05:020:006 And what man is he that hath planted a vineyard, and hath not + yet eaten of it? let him also go and return unto his house, + lest he die in the battle, and another man eat of it. + +05:020:007 And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife, and hath not + taken her? let him go and return unto his house, lest he die + in the battle, and another man take her. + +05:020:008 And the officers shall speak further unto the people, and they + shall say, What man is there that is fearful and fainthearted? + let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren's + heart faint as well as his heart. + +05:020:009 And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of + speaking unto the people that they shall make captains of the + armies to lead the people. + +05:020:010 When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then + proclaim peace unto it. + +05:020:011 And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open + unto thee, then it shall be, that all the people that is found + therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve + thee. + +05:020:012 And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war + against thee, then thou shalt besiege it: + +05:020:013 And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, + thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the + sword: + +05:020:014 But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all + that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou + take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine + enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee. + +05:020:015 Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off + from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations. + +05:020:016 But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth + give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing + that breatheth: + +05:020:017 But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and + the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, + and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee: + +05:020:018 That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, + which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against + the LORD your God. + +05:020:019 When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war + against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees + thereof by forcing an axe against them: for thou mayest eat of + them, and thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the + field is man's life) to employ them in the siege: + +05:020:020 Only the trees which thou knowest that they be not trees for + meat, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou shalt + build bulwarks against the city that maketh war with thee, + until it be subdued. + +05:021:001 If one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy God + giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not + known who hath slain him: + +05:021:002 Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they + shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that + is slain: + +05:021:003 And it shall be, that the city which is next unto the slain + man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer, which + hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the + yoke; + +05:021:004 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a + rough valley, which is neither eared nor sown, and shall + strike off the heifer's neck there in the valley: + +05:021:005 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them the + LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in + the name of the LORD; and by their word shall every + controversy and every stroke be tried: + +05:021:006 And all the elders of that city, that are next unto the slain + man, shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded + in the valley: + +05:021:007 And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this + blood, neither have our eyes seen it. + +05:021:008 Be merciful, O LORD, unto thy people Israel, whom thou hast + redeemed, and lay not innocent blood unto thy people of + Israel's charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them. + +05:021:009 So shalt thou put away the guilt of innocent blood from among + you, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of + the LORD. + +05:021:010 When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies, and the + LORD thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou + hast taken them captive, + +05:021:011 And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a + desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife; + +05:021:012 Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall + shave her head, and pare her nails; + +05:021:013 And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, + and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her + mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, + and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife. + +05:021:014 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou + shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her + at all for money, thou shalt not make merchandise of her, + because thou hast humbled her. + +05:021:015 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and + they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; + and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated: + +05:021:016 Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that + which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved + firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the + firstborn: + +05:021:017 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the + firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: + for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the + firstborn is his. + +05:021:018 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not + obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and + that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto + them: + +05:021:019 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and + bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate + of his place; + +05:021:020 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son + is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is + a glutton, and a drunkard. + +05:021:021 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that + he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all + Israel shall hear, and fear. + +05:021:022 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be + to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: + +05:021:023 His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou + shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is + accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD + thy God giveth thee for an inheritance. + +05:022:001 Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his sheep go astray, + and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them + again unto thy brother. + +05:022:002 And if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or if thou know him + not, then thou shalt bring it unto thine own house, and it + shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou + shalt restore it to him again. + +05:022:003 In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou + do with his raiment; and with all lost thing of thy brother's, + which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do + likewise: thou mayest not hide thyself. + +05:022:004 Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fall down by + the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help + him to lift them up again. + +05:022:005 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, + neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do + so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. + +05:022:006 If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way in any + tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, + and the dam sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, thou + shalt not take the dam with the young: + +05:022:007 But thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, and take the young + to thee; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest + prolong thy days. + +05:022:008 When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a + battlement for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thine + house, if any man fall from thence. + +05:022:009 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the + fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy + vineyard, be defiled. + +05:022:010 Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together. + +05:022:011 Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen + and linen together. + +05:022:012 Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy + vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself. + +05:022:013 If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her, + +05:022:014 And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil + name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to + her, I found her not a maid: + +05:022:015 Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and + bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the + elders of the city in the gate: + +05:022:016 And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my + daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her; + +05:022:017 And, lo, he hath given occasions of speech against her, + saying, I found not thy daughter a maid; and yet these are the + tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the + cloth before the elders of the city. + +05:022:018 And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise + him; + +05:022:019 And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of silver, and + give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath + brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall + be his wife; he may not put her away all his days. + +05:022:020 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not + found for the damsel: + +05:022:021 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her + father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with + stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, + to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put + evil away from among you. + +05:022:022 If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, + then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with + the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away evil from + Israel. + +05:022:023 If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and + a man find her in the city, and lie with her; + +05:022:024 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, + and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, + because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because + he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away + evil from among you. + +05:022:025 But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man + force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with + her shall die. + +05:022:026 But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the + damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth + against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so is this + matter: + +05:022:027 For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, + and there was none to save her. + +05:022:028 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not + betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be + found; + +05:022:029 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's + father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; + because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his + days. + +05:022:030 A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his + father's skirt. + +05:023:001 He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut + off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD. + +05:023:002 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; + even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the + congregation of the LORD. + +05:023:003 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation + of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not + enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever: + +05:023:004 Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, + when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired + against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, + to curse thee. + +05:023:005 Nevertheless the LORD thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; + but the LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto + thee, because the LORD thy God loved thee. + +05:023:006 Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy + days for ever. + +05:023:007 Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou + shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a stranger in + his land. + +05:023:008 The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the + congregation of the LORD in their third generation. + +05:023:009 When the host goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep + thee from every wicked thing. + +05:023:010 If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of + uncleanness that chanceth him by night, then shall he go + abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp: + +05:023:011 But it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall wash himself + with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the + camp again. + +05:023:012 Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou + shalt go forth abroad: + +05:023:013 And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon; and it shall be, + when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, + and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee: + +05:023:014 For the LORD thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to + deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; + therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he see no unclean thing + in thee, and turn away from thee. + +05:023:015 Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is + escaped from his master unto thee: + +05:023:016 He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place which + he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: + thou shalt not oppress him. + +05:023:017 There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a + sodomite of the sons of Israel. + +05:023:018 Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a + dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even + both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God. + +05:023:019 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, + usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury: + +05:023:020 Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy + brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: that the LORD thy God + may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the + land whither thou goest to possess it. + +05:023:021 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt + not slack to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require + it of thee; and it would be sin in thee. + +05:023:022 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee. + +05:023:023 That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and + perform; even a freewill offering, according as thou hast + vowed unto the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy + mouth. + +05:023:024 When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, then thou + mayest eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou + shalt not put any in thy vessel. + +05:023:025 When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour, then + thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand; but thou shalt not + move a sickle unto thy neighbour's standing corn. + +05:024:001 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to + pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath + found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill + of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of + his house. + +05:024:002 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be + another man's wife. + +05:024:003 And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of + divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of + his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be + his wife; + +05:024:004 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her + again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is + abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land + to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance. + +05:024:005 When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, + neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be + free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he + hath taken. + +05:024:006 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: + for he taketh a man's life to pledge. + +05:024:007 If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children + of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then + that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among + you. + +05:024:008 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe + diligently, and do according to all that the priests the + Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall + observe to do. + +05:024:009 Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way, + after that ye were come forth out of Egypt. + +05:024:010 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go + into his house to fetch his pledge. + +05:024:011 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend + shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee. + +05:024:012 And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge: + +05:024:013 In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the + sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and + bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the + LORD thy God. + +05:024:014 Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and + needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that + are in thy land within thy gates: + +05:024:015 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun + go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon + it: lest he cry against thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto + thee. + +05:024:016 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, + neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: + every man shall be put to death for his own sin. + +05:024:017 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of + the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge: + +05:024:018 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and + the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command + thee to do this thing. + +05:024:019 When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast + forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch + it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for + the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the + work of thine hands. + +05:024:020 When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the + boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the + fatherless, and for the widow. + +05:024:021 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not + glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the + fatherless, and for the widow. + +05:024:022 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land + of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing. + +05:025:001 If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto + judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall + justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked. + +05:025:002 And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, + that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten + before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number. + +05:025:003 Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he + should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, + then thy brother should seem vile unto thee. + +05:025:004 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. + +05:025:005 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no + child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a + stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take + her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's + brother unto her. + +05:025:006 And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall + succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his + name be not put out of Israel. + +05:025:007 And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then let + his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, + My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a + name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's + brother. + +05:025:008 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto + him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her; + +05:025:009 Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of + the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in + his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto + that man that will not build up his brother's house. + +05:025:010 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that + hath his shoe loosed. + +05:025:011 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the + one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of + him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh + him by the secrets: + +05:025:012 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity + her. + +05:025:013 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a + small. + +05:025:014 Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great + and a small. + +05:025:015 But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and + just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened + in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. + +05:025:016 For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, + are an abomination unto the LORD thy God. + +05:025:017 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were + come forth out of Egypt; + +05:025:018 How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, + even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint + and weary; and he feared not God. + +05:025:019 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee + rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the + LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, + that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under + heaven; thou shalt not forget it. + +05:026:001 And it shall be, when thou art come in unto the land which the + LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and possessest + it, and dwellest therein; + +05:026:002 That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the + earth, which thou shalt bring of thy land that the LORD thy + God giveth thee, and shalt put it in a basket, and shalt go + unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place + his name there. + +05:026:003 And thou shalt go unto the priest that shall be in those days, + and say unto him, I profess this day unto the LORD thy God, + that I am come unto the country which the LORD sware unto our + fathers for to give us. + +05:026:004 And the priest shall take the basket out of thine hand, and + set it down before the altar of the LORD thy God. + +05:026:005 And thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, A Syrian + ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, + and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, + great, mighty, and populous: + +05:026:006 And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and + laid upon us hard bondage: + +05:026:007 And when we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD + heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, + and our oppression: + +05:026:008 And the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, + and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and + with signs, and with wonders: + +05:026:009 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this + land, even a land that floweth with milk and honey. + +05:026:010 And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land, + which thou, O LORD, hast given me. And thou shalt set it + before the LORD thy God, and worship before the LORD thy God: + +05:026:011 And thou shalt rejoice in every good thing which the LORD thy + God hath given unto thee, and unto thine house, thou, and the + Levite, and the stranger that is among you. + +05:026:012 When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine + increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and + hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, + and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be + filled; + +05:026:013 Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have brought + away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have + given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the + fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy + commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not + transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them. + +05:026:014 I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken + away ought thereof for any unclean use, nor given ought + thereof for the dead: but I have hearkened to the voice of the + LORD my God, and have done according to all that thou hast + commanded me. + +05:026:015 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy + people Israel, and the land which thou hast given us, as thou + swarest unto our fathers, a land that floweth with milk and + honey. + +05:026:016 This day the LORD thy God hath commanded thee to do these + statutes and judgments: thou shalt therefore keep and do them + with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. + +05:026:017 Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to + walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his + commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his + voice: + +05:026:018 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar + people, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep + all his commandments; + +05:026:019 And to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in + praise, and in name, and in honour; and that thou mayest be an + holy people unto the LORD thy God, as he hath spoken. + +05:027:001 And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, + saying, Keep all the commandments which I command you this + day. + +05:027:002 And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over Jordan unto + the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt + set thee up great stones, and plaister them with plaister: + +05:027:003 And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when + thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto the land + which the LORD thy God giveth thee, a land that floweth with + milk and honey; as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised + thee. + +05:027:004 Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye + shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in + mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaister them with plaister. + +05:027:005 And there shalt thou build an altar unto the LORD thy God, an + altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up any iron tool upon + them. + +05:027:006 Thou shalt build the altar of the LORD thy God of whole + stones: and thou shalt offer burnt offerings thereon unto the + LORD thy God: + +05:027:007 And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and + rejoice before the LORD thy God. + +05:027:008 And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law + very plainly. + +05:027:009 And Moses and the priests the Levites spake unto all Israel, + saying, Take heed, and hearken, O Israel; this day thou art + become the people of the LORD thy God. + +05:027:010 Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the LORD thy God, and + do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee + this day. + +05:027:011 And Moses charged the people the same day, saying, + +05:027:012 These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when + ye are come over Jordan; Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and + Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin: + +05:027:013 And these shall stand upon mount Ebal to curse; Reuben, Gad, + and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. + +05:027:014 And the Levites shall speak, and say unto all the men of + Israel with a loud voice, + +05:027:015 Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an + abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the + craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place. And all the + people shall answer and say, Amen. + +05:027:016 Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. + And all the people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:017 Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark. And all + the people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:018 Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way. + And all the people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:019 Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger, + fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:020 Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife; because he + uncovereth his father's skirt. And all the people shall say, + Amen. + +05:027:021 Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast. And all the + people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:022 Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his + father, or the daughter of his mother. And all the people + shall say, Amen. + +05:027:023 Cursed be he that lieth with his mother in law. And all the + people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:024 Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbour secretly. And all the + people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:025 Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. + And all the people shall say, Amen. + +05:027:026 Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to + do them. And all the people shall say, Amen. + +05:028:001 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently + unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all + his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD + thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: + +05:028:002 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, + if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. + +05:028:003 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be + in the field. + +05:028:004 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy + ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, + and the flocks of thy sheep. + +05:028:005 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. + +05:028:006 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt + thou be when thou goest out. + +05:028:007 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee + to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against + thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. + +05:028:008 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy + storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and + he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth + thee. + +05:028:009 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as + he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments + of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways. + +05:028:010 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by + the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee. + +05:028:011 And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit + of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit + of thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy + fathers to give thee. + +05:028:012 The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to + give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all + the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, + and thou shalt not borrow. + +05:028:013 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and + thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if + that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, + which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them: + +05:028:014 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I + command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to + go after other gods to serve them. + +05:028:015 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the + voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his + commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; + that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: + +05:028:016 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in + the field. + +05:028:017 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store. + +05:028:018 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy + land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. + +05:028:019 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt + thou be when thou goest out. + +05:028:020 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, + in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou + be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the + wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me. + +05:028:021 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he + have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to + possess it. + +05:028:022 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a + fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, + and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and + they shall pursue thee until thou perish. + +05:028:023 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the + earth that is under thee shall be iron. + +05:028:024 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from + heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed. + +05:028:025 The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: + thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways + before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the + earth. + +05:028:026 And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and + unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away. + +05:028:027 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the + emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou + canst not be healed. + +05:028:028 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and + astonishment of heart: + +05:028:029 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in + darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou + shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall + save thee. + +05:028:030 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: + thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: + thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes + thereof. + +05:028:031 Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not + eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from + before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep + shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to + rescue them. + +05:028:032 Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, + and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all + the day long; and there shall be no might in thine hand. + +05:028:033 The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation + which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only + oppressed and crushed alway: + +05:028:034 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which + thou shalt see. + +05:028:035 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with + a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot + unto the top of thy head. + +05:028:036 The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set + over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers + have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and + stone. + +05:028:037 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a + byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee. + +05:028:038 Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt + gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it. + +05:028:039 Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither + drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall + eat them. + +05:028:040 Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but + thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive + shall cast his fruit. + +05:028:041 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy + them; for they shall go into captivity. + +05:028:042 All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume. + +05:028:043 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very + high; and thou shalt come down very low. + +05:028:044 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he + shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail. + +05:028:045 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall + pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; + because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy + God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he + commanded thee: + +05:028:046 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and + upon thy seed for ever. + +05:028:047 Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, + and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; + +05:028:048 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall + send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, + and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron + upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee. + +05:028:049 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the + end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose + tongue thou shalt not understand; + +05:028:050 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the + person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: + +05:028:051 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy + land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee + either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or + flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee. + +05:028:052 And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and + fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all + thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates + throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given + thee. + +05:028:053 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of + thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath + given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith + thine enemies shall distress thee: + +05:028:054 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, + his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife + of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he + shall leave: + +05:028:055 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his + children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him + in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies + shall distress thee in all thy gates. + +05:028:056 The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not + adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for + delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the + husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her + daughter, + +05:028:057 And toward her young one that cometh out from between her + feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she + shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege + and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in + thy gates. + +05:028:058 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that + are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious + and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD; + +05:028:059 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues + of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and + sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. + +05:028:060 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, + which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee. + +05:028:061 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in + the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, + until thou be destroyed. + +05:028:062 And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the + stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey + the voice of the LORD thy God. + +05:028:063 And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you + to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice + over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye + shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to + possess it. + +05:028:064 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one + end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt + serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have + known, even wood and stone. + +05:028:065 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall + the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee + there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of + mind: + +05:028:066 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt + fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life: + +05:028:067 In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at + even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear + of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of + thine eyes which thou shalt see. + +05:028:068 And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by + the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more + again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for + bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you. + +05:029:001 These are the words of the covenant, which the LORD commanded + Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, + beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb. + +05:029:002 And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Ye have + seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of + Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all + his land; + +05:029:003 The great temptations which thine eyes have seen, the signs, + and those great miracles: + +05:029:004 Yet the LORD hath not given you an heart to perceive, and eyes + to see, and ears to hear, unto this day. + +05:029:005 And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes + are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon + thy foot. + +05:029:006 Ye have not eaten bread, neither have ye drunk wine or strong + drink: that ye might know that I am the LORD your God. + +05:029:007 And when ye came unto this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, + and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us unto battle, + and we smote them: + +05:029:008 And we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance unto + the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half tribe of + Manasseh. + +05:029:009 Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that + ye may prosper in all that ye do. + +05:029:010 Ye stand this day all of you before the LORD your God; your + captains of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, with + all the men of Israel, + +05:029:011 Your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger that is in thy + camp, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water: + +05:029:012 That thou shouldest enter into covenant with the LORD thy God, + and into his oath, which the LORD thy God maketh with thee + this day: + +05:029:013 That he may establish thee to day for a people unto himself, + and that he may be unto thee a God, as he hath said unto thee, + and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, + and to Jacob. + +05:029:014 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath; + +05:029:015 But with him that standeth here with us this day before the + LORD our God, and also with him that is not here with us this + day: + +05:029:016 (For ye know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt; and how + we came through the nations which ye passed by; + +05:029:017 And ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and + stone, silver and gold, which were among them:) + +05:029:018 Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or + tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the LORD our + God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there + should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood; + +05:029:019 And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, + that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have + peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add + drunkenness to thirst: + +05:029:020 The LORD will not spare him, but then the anger of the LORD + and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the + curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and + the LORD shall blot out his name from under heaven. + +05:029:021 And the LORD shall separate him unto evil out of all the + tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant + that are written in this book of the law: + +05:029:022 So that the generation to come of your children that shall + rise up after you, and the stranger that shall come from a far + land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and + the sicknesses which the LORD hath laid upon it; + +05:029:023 And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and + burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass + groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, + Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and + in his wrath: + +05:029:024 Even all nations shall say, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus + unto this land? what meaneth the heat of this great anger? + +05:029:025 Then men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of + the LORD God of their fathers, which he made with them when he + brought them forth out of the land of Egypt: + +05:029:026 For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods + whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them: + +05:029:027 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to + bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book: + +05:029:028 And the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in + wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another + land, as it is this day. + +05:029:029 The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those + things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children + for ever, that we may do all the words of this law. + +05:030:001 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon + thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before + thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, + whither the LORD thy God hath driven thee, + +05:030:002 And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and shalt obey his + voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and + thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul; + +05:030:003 That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have + compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all + the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee. + +05:030:004 If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of + heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and + from thence will he fetch thee: + +05:030:005 And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy + fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do + thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers. + +05:030:006 And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the + heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine + heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. + +05:030:007 And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine + enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee. + +05:030:008 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do + all his commandments which I command thee this day. + +05:030:009 And the LORD thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of + thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy + cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the LORD + will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy + fathers: + +05:030:010 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to + keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in + this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy God + with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. + +05:030:011 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not + hidden from thee, neither is it far off. + +05:030:012 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up + for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, + and do it? + +05:030:013 Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who + shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we + may hear it, and do it? + +05:030:014 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy + heart, that thou mayest do it. + +05:030:015 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death + and evil; + +05:030:016 In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to + walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his + statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and + multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land + whither thou goest to possess it. + +05:030:017 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but + shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; + +05:030:018 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and + that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither + thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it. + +05:030:019 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I + have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: + therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: + +05:030:020 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest + obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he + is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest + dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to + Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them. + +05:031:001 And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel. + +05:031:002 And he said unto them, I am an hundred and twenty years old + this day; I can no more go out and come in: also the LORD hath + said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan. + +05:031:003 The LORD thy God, he will go over before thee, and he will + destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt possess + them: and Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as the LORD + hath said. + +05:031:004 And the LORD shall do unto them as he did to Sihon and to Og, + kings of the Amorites, and unto the land of them, whom he + destroyed. + +05:031:005 And the LORD shall give them up before your face, that ye may + do unto them according unto all the commandments which I have + commanded you. + +05:031:006 Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of + them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; + he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. + +05:031:007 And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight + of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must + go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn + unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to + inherit it. + +05:031:008 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be + with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear + not, neither be dismayed. + +05:031:009 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests + the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the + LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel. + +05:031:010 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven + years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast + of tabernacles, + +05:031:011 When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in + the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law + before all Israel in their hearing. + +05:031:012 Gather the people together, men and women, and children, and + thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and + that they may learn, and fear the LORD your God, and observe + to do all the words of this law: + +05:031:013 And that their children, which have not known any thing, may + hear, and learn to fear the LORD your God, as long as ye live + in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it. + +05:031:014 And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that + thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the + tabernacle of the congregation, that I may give him a charge. + And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the + tabernacle of the congregation. + +05:031:015 And the LORD appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of a + cloud: and the pillar of the cloud stood over the door of the + tabernacle. + +05:031:016 And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with + thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring + after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go + to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant + which I have made with them. + +05:031:017 Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I + will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they + shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall + them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils + come upon us, because our God is not among us? + +05:031:018 And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils + which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto + other gods. + +05:031:019 Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the + children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may + be a witness for me against the children of Israel. + +05:031:020 For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware + unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they + shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then + will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke + me, and break my covenant. + +05:031:021 And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are + befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a + witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of + their seed: for I know their imagination which they go about, + even now, before I have brought them into the land which I + sware. + +05:031:022 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it + the children of Israel. + +05:031:023 And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be + strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the + children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and + I will be with thee. + +05:031:024 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the + words of this law in a book, until they were finished, + +05:031:025 That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the + covenant of the LORD, saying, + +05:031:026 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark + of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for + a witness against thee. + +05:031:027 For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I + am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious + against the LORD; and how much more after my death? + +05:031:028 Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your + officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call + heaven and earth to record against them. + +05:031:029 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt + yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded + you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye + will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger + through the work of your hands. + +05:031:030 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel + the words of this song, until they were ended. + +05:032:001 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, + the words of my mouth. + +05:032:002 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as + the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the + showers upon the grass: + +05:032:003 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye + greatness unto our God. + +05:032:004 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are + judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right + is he. + +05:032:005 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of + his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation. + +05:032:006 Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is + not he thy father that hath bought thee? hath he not made + thee, and established thee? + +05:032:007 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many + generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy + elders, and they will tell thee. + +05:032:008 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, + when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the + people according to the number of the children of Israel. + +05:032:009 For the LORD's portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his + inheritance. + +05:032:010 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling + wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him + as the apple of his eye. + +05:032:011 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, + spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her + wings: + +05:032:012 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god + with him. + +05:032:013 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he + might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck + honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; + +05:032:014 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams + of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of + wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape. + +05:032:015 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou + art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he + forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of + his salvation. + +05:032:016 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with + abominations provoked they him to anger. + +05:032:017 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they + knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers + feared not. + +05:032:018 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast + forgotten God that formed thee. + +05:032:019 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the + provoking of his sons, and of his daughters. + +05:032:020 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what + their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, + children in whom is no faith. + +05:032:021 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; + they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will + move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I + will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. + +05:032:022 For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the + lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, + and set on fire the foundations of the mountains. + +05:032:023 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon + them. + +05:032:024 They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning + heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth + of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust. + +05:032:025 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the + young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of + gray hairs. + +05:032:026 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the + remembrance of them to cease from among men: + +05:032:027 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their + adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they + should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all + this. + +05:032:028 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any + understanding in them. + +05:032:029 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they + would consider their latter end! + +05:032:030 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to + flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut + them up? + +05:032:031 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves + being judges. + +05:032:032 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of + Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are + bitter: + +05:032:033 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of + asps. + +05:032:034 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my + treasures? + +05:032:035 To me belongeth vengeance and recompence; their foot shall + slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, + and the things that shall come upon them make haste. + +05:032:036 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for + his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and + there is none shut up, or left. + +05:032:037 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom + they trusted, + +05:032:038 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine + of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and + be your protection. + +05:032:039 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I + kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there + any that can deliver out of my hand. + +05:032:040 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever. + +05:032:041 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on + judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will + reward them that hate me. + +05:032:042 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall + devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the + captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy. + +05:032:043 Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the + blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his + adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his + people. + +05:032:044 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the + ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun. + +05:032:045 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all + Israel: + +05:032:046 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words + which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command + your children to observe to do, all the words of this law. + +05:032:047 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: + and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, + whither ye go over Jordan to possess it. + +05:032:048 And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying, + +05:032:049 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which + is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and + behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of + Israel for a possession: + +05:032:050 And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered + unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and + was gathered unto his people: + +05:032:051 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel + at the waters of MeribahKadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; + because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of + Israel. + +05:032:052 Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go + thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel. + +05:033:001 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God + blessed the children of Israel before his death. + +05:033:002 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir + unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with + ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law + for them. + +05:033:003 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and + they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy + words. + +05:033:004 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the + congregation of Jacob. + +05:033:005 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and + the tribes of Israel were gathered together. + +05:033:006 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few. + +05:033:007 And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, LORD, + the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his + hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from + his enemies. + +05:033:008 And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy + holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou + didst strive at the waters of Meribah; + +05:033:009 Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen + him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own + children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy + covenant. + +05:033:010 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they + shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon + thine altar. + +05:033:011 Bless, LORD, his substance, and accept the work of his hands; + smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of + them that hate him, that they rise not again. + +05:033:012 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the LORD shall dwell + in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day + long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders. + +05:033:013 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the LORD be his land, for + the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep + that coucheth beneath, + +05:033:014 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for + the precious things put forth by the moon, + +05:033:015 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the + precious things of the lasting hills, + +05:033:016 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, + and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the + blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the + head of him that was separated from his brethren. + +05:033:017 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns + are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the + people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten + thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh. + +05:033:018 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; + and, Issachar, in thy tents. + +05:033:019 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall + offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the + abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand. + +05:033:020 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he + dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the + head. + +05:033:021 And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in + a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the + heads of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and + his judgments with Israel. + +05:033:022 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from + Bashan. + +05:033:023 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, + and full with the blessing of the LORD: possess thou the west + and the south. + +05:033:024 And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children; let + him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in + oil. + +05:033:025 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall + thy strength be. + +05:033:026 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon + the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky. + +05:033:027 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the + everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from + before thee; and shall say, Destroy them. + +05:033:028 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob + shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall + drop down dew. + +05:033:029 Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people + saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and who is the + sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found + liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places. + +05:034:001 And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of + Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And + the LORD shewed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan, + +05:034:002 And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and + all the land of Judah, unto the utmost sea, + +05:034:003 And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the + city of palm trees, unto Zoar. + +05:034:004 And the LORD said unto him, This is the land which I sware + unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give + it unto thy seed: I have caused thee to see it with thine + eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither. + +05:034:005 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of + Moab, according to the word of the LORD. + +05:034:006 And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over + against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto + this day. + +05:034:007 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: + his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. + +05:034:008 And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of + Moab thirty days: so the days of weeping and mourning for + Moses were ended. + +05:034:009 And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; + for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of + Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the LORD commanded + Moses. + +05:034:010 And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, + whom the LORD knew face to face, + +05:034:011 In all the signs and the wonders, which the LORD sent him to + do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, + and to all his land, + +05:034:012 And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which + Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel. + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE BIBLE, KING JAMES, BOOK 5 *** + +********* This file should be named 8005.txt or 8005.zip ********** + +This eBook was produced by David Widger +See above the credits to previous producers of this text. + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
