DEU 1:1 These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side
Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between
Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
DEU 1:2 (There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of mount Seir
unto Kadeshbarnea.)
DEU 1:3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on
the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel,
according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them;
DEU 1:4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in
Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:
DEU 1:5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this
law, saying,
DEU 1:6 The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long
enough in this mount:
DEU 1:7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the
Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills,
and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the
Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.
DEU 1:8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land
which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give
unto them and to their seed after them.
DEU 1:9 And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you
myself alone:
DEU 1:10 The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day
as the stars of heaven for multitude.
DEU 1:11 (The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more
as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)
DEU 1:12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your
strife?
DEU 1:13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your
tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.
DEU 1:14 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is
good for us to do.
DEU 1:15 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.
DEU 1:16 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.
DEU 1:17 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.
DEU 1:18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
DEU 1:19 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.
DEU 1:20 And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites,
which the LORD our God doth give unto us.
DEU 1:21 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.
DEU 1:22 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.
DEU 1:23 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of
a tribe:
DEU 1:24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the
valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.
DEU 1:25 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.
DEU 1:26 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the
commandment of the LORD your God:
DEU 1:27 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.
DEU 1:28 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.
DEU 1:29 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.
DEU 1:30 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;
DEU 1:31 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.
DEU 1:32 Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,
DEU 1:33 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.
DEU 1:34 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware,
saying,
DEU 1:35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see
that good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers.
DEU 1:36 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.
DEU 1:37 Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also
shalt not go in thither.
DEU 1:38 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.
DEU 1:39 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.
DEU 1:40 But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness
by the way of the Red sea.
DEU 1:41 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.
DEU 1:42 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.
DEU 1:43 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.
DEU 1:44 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.
DEU 1:45 And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not
hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.
DEU 1:46 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye
abode there.
DEU 2:1 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.
DEU 2:2 And the LORD spake unto me, saying,
DEU 2:3 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.
DEU 2:4 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:
DEU 2:5 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.
DEU 2:6 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.
DEU 2:7 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.
DEU 2:8 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.
DEU 2:9 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.
DEU 2:10 The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and
tall, as the Anakims;
DEU 2:11 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites
called them Emims.
DEU 2:12 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.
DEU 2:13 Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went
over the brook Zered.
DEU 2:14 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.
DEU 2:15 For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them, to destroy them
from among the host, until they were consumed.
DEU 2:16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead
from among the people,
DEU 2:17 That the LORD spake unto me, saying,
DEU 2:18 Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day:
DEU 2:19 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.
DEU 2:20 (That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in
old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims;
DEU 2:21 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:
DEU 2:22 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:
DEU 2:23 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.)
DEU 2:24 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.
DEU 2:25 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.
DEU 2:26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon
king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
DEU 2:27 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.
DEU 2:28 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;
DEU 2:29 (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.
DEU 2:30 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.
DEU 2:31 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.
DEU 2:32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at
Jahaz.
DEU 2:33 And the LORD our God delivered him before us; and we smote him, and
his sons, and all his people.
DEU 2:34 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:
DEU 2:35 Only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, and the spoil
of the cities which we took.
DEU 2:36 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:
DEU 2:37 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.
DEU 3:1 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.
DEU 3:2 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.
DEU 3:3 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.
DEU 3:4 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.
DEU 3:5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside
unwalled towns a great many.
DEU 3:6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon,
utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.
DEU 3:7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to
ourselves.
DEU 3:8 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;
DEU 3:9 (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it
Shenir;)
DEU 3:10 All the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, unto
Salchah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
DEU 3:11 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.
DEU 3:12 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.
DEU 3:13 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.
DEU 3:14 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.
DEU 3:15 And I gave Gilead unto Machir.
DEU 3:16 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;
DEU 3:17 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.
DEU 3:18 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.
DEU 3:19 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;
DEU 3:20 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.
DEU 3:21 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.
DEU 3:22 Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight for you.
DEU 3:23 And I besought the LORD at that time, saying,
DEU 3:24 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?
DEU 3:25 I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond
Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
DEU 3:26 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.
DEU 3:27 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.
DEU 3:28 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.
DEU 3:29 So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor.
DEU 4:1 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.
DEU 4:2 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.
DEU 4:3 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.
DEU 4:4 But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of
you this day.
DEU 4:5 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.
DEU 4:6 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.
DEU 4:7 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?
DEU 4:8 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?
DEU 4:9 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;
DEU 4:10 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.
DEU 4:11 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.
DEU 4:12 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.
DEU 4:13 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.
DEU 4:14 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.
DEU 4:15 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:
DEU 4:16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the
similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
DEU 4:17 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any
winged fowl that flieth in the air,
DEU 4:18 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness
of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:
DEU 4:19 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.
DEU 4:20 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.
DEU 4:21 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:
DEU 4:22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall
go over, and possess that good land.
DEU 4:23 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.
DEU 4:24 For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
DEU 4:25 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:
DEU 4:26 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.
DEU 4:27 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.
DEU 4:28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and
stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
DEU 4:29 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.
DEU 4:30 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;
DEU 4:31 (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.
DEU 4:32 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?
DEU 4:33 Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst
of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
DEU 4:34 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?
DEU 4:35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the LORD he is
God; there is none else beside him.
DEU 4:36 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.
DEU 4:37 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;
DEU 4:38 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.
DEU 4:39 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.
DEU 4:40 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.
DEU 4:41 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the
sunrising;
DEU 4:42 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:
DEU 4:43 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.
DEU 4:44 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:
DEU 4:45 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.
DEU 4:46 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:
DEU 4:47 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;
DEU 4:48 From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount
Sion, which is Hermon,
DEU 4:49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea
of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
DEU 5:1 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.
DEU 5:2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
DEU 5:3 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even
us, who are all of us here alive this day.
DEU 5:4 The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst
of the fire,
DEU 5:5 (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,
DEU 5:6 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt,
from the house of bondage.
DEU 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
DEU 5:8 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:
DEU 5:9 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,
DEU 5:10 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my
commandments.
DEU 5:11 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.
DEU 5:12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath
commanded thee.
DEU 5:13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
DEU 5:14 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.
DEU 5:15 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.
DEU 5:16 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.
DEU 5:17 Thou shalt not kill.
DEU 5:18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
DEU 5:19 Neither shalt thou steal.
DEU 5:20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
DEU 5:21 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.
DEU 5:22 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.
DEU 5:23 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;
DEU 5:24 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.
DEU 5:25 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.
DEU 5:26 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?
DEU 5:27 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.
DEU 5:28 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.
DEU 5:29 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!
DEU 5:30 Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
DEU 5:31 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.
DEU 5:32 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.
DEU 5:33 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.
DEU 6:1 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:
DEU 6:2 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.
DEU 6:3 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.
DEU 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
DEU 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with
all thy soul, and with all thy might.
DEU 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine
heart:
DEU 6:7 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.
DEU 6:8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be
as frontlets between thine eyes.
DEU 6:9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy
gates.
DEU 6:10 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,
DEU 6:11 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;
DEU 6:12 Then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out
of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
DEU 6:13 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by
his name.
DEU 6:14 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are
round about you;
DEU 6:15 (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.
DEU 6:16 Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
DEU 6:17 Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and
his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.
DEU 6:18 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.
DEU 6:19 To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the LORD hath
spoken.
DEU 6:20 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?
DEU 6:21 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:
DEU 6:22 And the LORD shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon Egypt,
upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes:
DEU 6:23 And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give
us the land which he sware unto our fathers.
DEU 6:24 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.
DEU 6:25 And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these
commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.
DEU 7:1 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;
DEU 7:2 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:
DEU 7:3 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.
DEU 7:4 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.
DEU 7:5 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.
DEU 7:6 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.
DEU 7:7 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:
DEU 7:8 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.
DEU 7:9 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;
DEU 7:10 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.
DEU 7:11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the
judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.
DEU 7:12 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:
DEU 7:13 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.
DEU 7:14 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or
female barren among you, or among your cattle.
DEU 7:15 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.
DEU 7:16 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.
DEU 7:17 If thou shalt say in thine heart, These nations are more than I; how
can I dispossess them?
DEU 7:18 Thou shalt not be afraid of them: but shalt well remember what the
LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt;
DEU 7:19 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.
DEU 7:20 Moreover the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them, until they
that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be destroyed.
DEU 7:21 Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God is among
you, a mighty God and terrible.
DEU 7:22 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.
DEU 7:23 But the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee, and shall destroy
them with a mighty destruction, until they be destroyed.
DEU 7:24 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.
DEU 7:25 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.
DEU 7:26 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.
DEU 8:1 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.
DEU 8:2 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.
DEU 8:3 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.
DEU 8:4 Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these
forty years.
DEU 8:5 Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his
son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
DEU 8:6 Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, to
walk in his ways, and to fear him.
DEU 8:7 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;
DEU 8:8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and
pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;
DEU 8:9 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.
DEU 8:10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy
God for the good land which he hath given thee.
DEU 8:11 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:
DEU 8:12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses,
and dwelt therein;
DEU 8:13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy
gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
DEU 8:14 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;
DEU 8:15 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;
DEU 8:16 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;
DEU 8:17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath
gotten me this wealth.
DEU 8:18 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.
DEU 8:19 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.
DEU 8:20 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.
DEU 9:1 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,
DEU 9:2 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!
DEU 9:3 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.
DEU 9:4 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.
DEU 9:5 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.
DEU 9:6 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.
DEU 9:7 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.
DEU 9:8 Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD was
angry with you to have destroyed you.
DEU 9:9 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:
DEU 9:10 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.
DEU 9:11 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.
DEU 9:12 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.
DEU 9:13 Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this
people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
DEU 9:14 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.
DEU 9:15 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.
DEU 9:16 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.
DEU 9:17 And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and
brake them before your eyes.
DEU 9:18 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.
DEU 9:19 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.
DEU 9:20 And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: and I
prayed for Aaron also the same time.
DEU 9:21 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.
DEU 9:22 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, ye provoked
the LORD to wrath.
DEU 9:23 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.
DEU 9:24 Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I knew
you.
DEU 9:25 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.
DEU 9:26 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.
DEU 9:27 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the
stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
DEU 9:28 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.
DEU 9:29 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest
out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
DEU 10:1 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.
DEU 10:2 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.
DEU 10:3 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.
DEU 10:4 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.
DEU 10:5 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.
DEU 10:6 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.
DEU 10:7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to
Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
DEU 10:8 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.
DEU 10:9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the
LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God promised him.
DEU 10:10 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.
DEU 10:11 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.
DEU 10:12 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,
DEU 10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I
command thee this day for thy good?
DEU 10:14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's thy
God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
DEU 10:15 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.
DEU 10:16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more
stiffnecked.
DEU 10:17 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:
DEU 10:18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth
the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
DEU 10:19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of
Egypt.
DEU 10:20 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him
shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.
DEU 10:21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these
great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
DEU 10:22 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.
DEU 11:1 Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and
his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.
DEU 11:2 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,
DEU 11:3 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;
DEU 11:4 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;
DEU 11:5 And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this
place;
DEU 11:6 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:
DEU 11:7 But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.
DEU 11:8 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;
DEU 11:9 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.
DEU 11:10 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:
DEU 11:11 But the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and
valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven:
DEU 11:12 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.
DEU 11:13 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,
DEU 11:14 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.
DEU 11:15 And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest
eat and be full.
DEU 11:16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye
turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
DEU 11:17 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.
DEU 11:18 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.
DEU 11:19 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.
DEU 11:20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and
upon thy gates:
DEU 11:21 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.
DEU 11:22 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;
DEU 11:23 Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and
ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
DEU 11:24 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.
DEU 11:25 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.
DEU 11:26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
DEU 11:27 A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which
I command you this day:
DEU 11:28 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.
DEU 11:29 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.
DEU 11:30 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?
DEU 11:31 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.
DEU 11:32 And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I
set before you this day.
DEU 12:1 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.
DEU 12:2 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:
DEU 12:3 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.
DEU 12:4 Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God.
DEU 12:5 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:
DEU 12:6 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:
DEU 12:7 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.
DEU 12:8 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every
man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
DEU 12:9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which
the LORD your God giveth you.
DEU 12:10 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;
DEU 12:11 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:
DEU 12:12 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.
DEU 12:13 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in
every place that thou seest:
DEU 12:14 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.
DEU 12:15 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.
DEU 12:16 Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as
water.
DEU 12:17 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:
DEU 12:18 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.
DEU 12:19 Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as
thou livest upon the earth.
DEU 12:20 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.
DEU 12:21 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.
DEU 12:22 Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them:
the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike.
DEU 12:23 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.
DEU 12:24 Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
DEU 12:25 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.
DEU 12:26 Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt
take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose:
DEU 12:27 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.
DEU 12:28 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.
DEU 12:29 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;
DEU 12:30 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.
DEU 12:31 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.
DEU 12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not
add thereto, nor diminish from it.
DEU 13:1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and
giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
DEU 13:2 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;
DEU 13:3 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.
DEU 13:4 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.
DEU 13:5 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.
DEU 13:6 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;
DEU 13:7 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;
DEU 13:8 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:
DEU 13:9 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.
DEU 13:10 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.
DEU 13:11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such
wickedness as this is among you.
DEU 13:12 If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD thy God
hath given thee to dwell there, saying,
DEU 13:13 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;
DEU 13:14 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;
DEU 13:15 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.
DEU 13:16 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.
DEU 13:17 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;
DEU 13:18 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.
DEU 14:1 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut
yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
DEU 14:2 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.
DEU 14:3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
DEU 14:4 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the
goat,
DEU 14:5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild
goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
DEU 14:6 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.
DEU 14:7 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.
DEU 14:8 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.
DEU 14:9 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins
and scales shall ye eat:
DEU 14:10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is
unclean unto you.
DEU 14:11 Of all clean birds ye shall eat.
DEU 14:12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the
ossifrage, and the ospray,
DEU 14:13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
DEU 14:14 And every raven after his kind,
DEU 14:15 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after
his kind,
DEU 14:16 The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
DEU 14:17 And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
DEU 14:18 And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and
the bat.
DEU 14:19 And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they shall
not be eaten.
DEU 14:20 But of all clean fowls ye may eat.
DEU 14:21 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.
DEU 14:22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field
bringeth forth year by year.
DEU 14:23 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.
DEU 14:24 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:
DEU 14:25 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:
DEU 14:26 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,
DEU 14:27 And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake him;
for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee.
DEU 14:28 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:
DEU 14:29 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.
DEU 15:1 At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.
DEU 15:2 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.
DEU 15:3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine
with thy brother thine hand shall release;
DEU 15:4 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:
DEU 15:5 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.
DEU 15:6 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.
DEU 15:7 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:
DEU 15:8 But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend
him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.
DEU 15:9 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.
DEU 15:10 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.
DEU 15:11 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.
DEU 15:12 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.
DEU 15:13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him
go away empty:
DEU 15:14 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.
DEU 15:15 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.
DEU 15:16 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;
DEU 15:17 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.
DEU 15:18 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.
DEU 15:19 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.
DEU 15:20 Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in the place
which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
DEU 15:21 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.
DEU 15:22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean person
shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
DEU 15:23 Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon
the ground as water.
DEU 16:1 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.
DEU 16:2 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.
DEU 16:3 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.
DEU 16:4 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.
DEU 16:5 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which
the LORD thy God giveth thee:
DEU 16:6 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.
DEU 16:7 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.
DEU 16:8 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.
DEU 16:9 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.
DEU 16:10 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:
DEU 16:11 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.
DEU 16:12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou
shalt observe and do these statutes.
DEU 16:13 Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that
thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:
DEU 16:14 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.
DEU 16:15 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.
DEU 16:16 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:
DEU 16:17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the
LORD thy God which he hath given thee.
DEU 16:18 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.
DEU 16:19 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.
DEU 16:20 That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou mayest
live, and inherit the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
DEU 16:21 Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the altar
of the LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
DEU 16:22 Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the LORD thy God
hateth.
DEU 17:1 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.
DEU 17:2 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,
DEU 17:3 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;
DEU 17:4 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:
DEU 17:5 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.
DEU 17:6 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.
DEU 17:7 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.
DEU 17:8 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;
DEU 17:9 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:
DEU 17:10 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:
DEU 17:11 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.
DEU 17:12 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.
DEU 17:13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more
presumptuously.
DEU 17:14 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;
DEU 17:15 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.
DEU 17:16 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.
DEU 17:17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not
away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
DEU 17:18 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:
DEU 17:19 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:
DEU 17:20 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.
DEU 18:1 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.
DEU 18:2 Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their brethren: the
LORD is their inheritance, as he hath said unto them.
DEU 18:3 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.
DEU 18:4 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.
DEU 18:5 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.
DEU 18:6 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;
DEU 18:7 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.
DEU 18:8 They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh of the
sale of his patrimony.
DEU 18:9 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.
DEU 18:10 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.
DEU 18:11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or
a necromancer.
DEU 18:12 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.
DEU 18:13 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
DEU 18:14 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.
DEU 18:15 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;
DEU 18:16 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.
DEU 18:17 And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which they
have spoken.
DEU 18:18 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.
DEU 18:19 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.
DEU 18:20 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.
DEU 18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the
LORD hath not spoken?
DEU 18:22 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.
DEU 19:1 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;
DEU 19:2 Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of thy land,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it.
DEU 19:3 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.
DEU 19:4 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;
DEU 19:5 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:
DEU 19:6 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.
DEU 19:7 Wherefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate three cities
for thee.
DEU 19:8 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;
DEU 19:9 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:
DEU 19:10 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.
DEU 19:11 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:
DEU 19:12 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.
DEU 19:13 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.
DEU 19:14 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.
DEU 19:15 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.
DEU 19:16 If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him
that which is wrong;
DEU 19:17 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;
DEU 19:18 And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the
witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother;
DEU 19:19 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.
DEU 19:20 And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth
commit no more any such evil among you.
DEU 19:21 And thine eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye for
eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
DEU 20:1 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.
DEU 20:2 And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the
priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
DEU 20:3 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;
DEU 20:4 For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you
against your enemies, to save you.
DEU 20:5 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.
DEU 20:6 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.
DEU 20:7 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.
DEU 20:8 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.
DEU 20:9 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.
DEU 20:10 When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim
peace unto it.
DEU 20:11 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.
DEU 20:12 And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against
thee, then thou shalt besiege it:
DEU 20:13 And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou
shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword:
DEU 20:14 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.
DEU 20:15 Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off from
thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
DEU 20:16 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:
DEU 20:17 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:
DEU 20:18 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.
DEU 20:19 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:
DEU 20:20 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.
DEU 21:1 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:
DEU 21:2 Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall
measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain:
DEU 21:3 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;
DEU 21:4 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:
DEU 21:5 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:
DEU 21:6 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:
DEU 21:7 And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood,
neither have our eyes seen it.
DEU 21:8 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.
DEU 21:9 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.
DEU 21:10 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,
DEU 21:11 And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire
unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife;
DEU 21:12 Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house, and she shall shave
her head, and pare her nails;
DEU 21:13 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.
DEU 21:14 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.
DEU 21:15 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:
DEU 21:16 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:
DEU 21:17 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.
DEU 21:18 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:
DEU 21:19 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;
DEU 21:20 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.
DEU 21:21 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.
DEU 21:22 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:
DEU 21:23 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.
DEU 22:1 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.
DEU 22:2 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.
DEU 22:3 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.
DEU 22:4 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.
DEU 22:5 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.
DEU 22:6 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:
DEU 22:7 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.
DEU 22:8 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.
DEU 22:9 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.
DEU 22:10 Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
DEU 22:11 Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and
linen together.
DEU 22:12 Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy vesture,
wherewith thou coverest thyself.
DEU 22:13 If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
DEU 22:14 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:
DEU 22:15 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:
DEU 22:16 And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my
daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
DEU 22:17 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.
DEU 22:18 And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
DEU 22:19 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.
DEU 22:20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found
for the damsel:
DEU 22:21 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.
DEU 22:22 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.
DEU 22:23 If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man
find her in the city, and lie with her;
DEU 22:24 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.
DEU 22:25 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.
DEU 22:26 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:
DEU 22:27 For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and
there was none to save her.
DEU 22:28 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;
DEU 22:29 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.
DEU 22:30 A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his father's
skirt.
DEU 23:1 He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off,
shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
DEU 23:2 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.
DEU 23:3 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:
DEU 23:4 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.
DEU 23:5 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.
DEU 23:6 Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for
ever.
DEU 23:7 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.
DEU 23:8 The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the
congregation of the LORD in their third generation.
DEU 23:9 When the host goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep thee from
every wicked thing.
DEU 23:10 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:
DEU 23:11 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.
DEU 23:12 Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go
forth abroad:
DEU 23:13 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:
DEU 23:14 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.
DEU 23:15 Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped
from his master unto thee:
DEU 23:16 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.
DEU 23:17 There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite
of the sons of Israel.
DEU 23:18 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.
DEU 23:19 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury
of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:
DEU 23:20 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.
DEU 23:21 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.
DEU 23:22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
DEU 23:23 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.
DEU 23:24 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.
DEU 23:25 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.
DEU 24:1 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.
DEU 24:2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another
man's wife.
DEU 24:3 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;
DEU 24:4 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.
DEU 24:5 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.
DEU 24:6 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he
taketh a man's life to pledge.
DEU 24:7 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.
DEU 24:8 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.
DEU 24:9 Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way, after that
ye were come forth out of Egypt.
DEU 24:10 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into
his house to fetch his pledge.
DEU 24:11 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall
bring out the pledge abroad unto thee.
DEU 24:12 And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:
DEU 24:13 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.
DEU 24:14 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:
DEU 24:15 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.
DEU 24:16 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.
DEU 24:17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the
fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:
DEU 24:18 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.
DEU 24:19 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.
DEU 24:20 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.
DEU 24:21 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.
DEU 24:22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of
Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
DEU 25:1 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.
DEU 25:2 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.
DEU 25:3 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.
DEU 25:4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
DEU 25:5 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.
DEU 25:6 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.
DEU 25:7 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.
DEU 25:8 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;
DEU 25:9 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.
DEU 25:10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath
his shoe loosed.
DEU 25:11 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:
DEU 25:12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.
DEU 25:13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
DEU 25:14 Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a
small.
DEU 25:15 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.
DEU 25:16 For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an
abomination unto the LORD thy God.
DEU 25:17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come
forth out of Egypt;
DEU 25:18 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.
DEU 25:19 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.
DEU 26:1 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;
DEU 26:2 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.
DEU 26:3 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.
DEU 26:4 And the priest shall take the basket out of thine hand, and set it
down before the altar of the LORD thy God.
DEU 26:5 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:
DEU 26:6 And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon
us hard bondage:
DEU 26:7 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:
DEU 26:8 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:
DEU 26:9 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land,
even a land that floweth with milk and honey.
DEU 26:10 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:
DEU 26:11 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.
DEU 26:12 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;
DEU 26:13 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.
DEU 26:14 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.
DEU 26:15 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.
DEU 26:16 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.
DEU 26:17 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:
DEU 26:18 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;
DEU 26:19 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.
DEU 27:1 And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying,
Keep all the commandments which I command you this day.
DEU 27:2 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:
DEU 27:3 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.
DEU 27:4 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.
DEU 27:5 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.
DEU 27:6 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:
DEU 27:7 And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and
rejoice before the LORD thy God.
DEU 27:8 And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very
plainly.
DEU 27:9 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.
DEU 27:10 Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the LORD thy God, and do his
commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
DEU 27:11 And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,
DEU 27:12 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:
DEU 27:13 And these shall stand upon mount Ebal to curse; Reuben, Gad, and
Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
DEU 27:14 And the Levites shall speak, and say unto all the men of Israel with
a loud voice,
DEU 27:15 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.
DEU 27:16 Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all
the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:17 Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark. And all the
people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:18 Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way. And all
the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:19 Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger,
fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:20 Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife; because he
uncovereth his father's skirt. And all the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:21 Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast. And all the people
shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:22 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.
DEU 27:23 Cursed be he that lieth with his mother in law. And all the people
shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:24 Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbour secretly. And all the people
shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:25 Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all
the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 27:26 Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to do
them. And all the people shall say, Amen.
DEU 28:1 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:
DEU 28:2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if
thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
DEU 28:3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the
field.
DEU 28:4 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.
DEU 28:5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
DEU 28:6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be
when thou goest out.
DEU 28:7 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.
DEU 28:8 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.
DEU 28:9 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.
DEU 28:10 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.
DEU 28:11 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.
DEU 28:12 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.
DEU 28:13 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:
DEU 28:14 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.
DEU 28:15 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:
DEU 28:16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the
field.
DEU 28:17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.
DEU 28:18 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.
DEU 28:19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be
when thou goest out.
DEU 28:20 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.
DEU 28:21 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have
consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.
DEU 28:22 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.
DEU 28:23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth
that is under thee shall be iron.
DEU 28:24 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from
heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
DEU 28:25 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.
DEU 28:26 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.
DEU 28:27 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.
DEU 28:28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and
astonishment of heart:
DEU 28:29 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.
DEU 28:30 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.
DEU 28:31 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.
DEU 28:32 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.
DEU 28:33 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:
DEU 28:34 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou
shalt see.
DEU 28:35 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.
DEU 28:36 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.
DEU 28:37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword,
among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.
DEU 28:38 Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but
little in; for the locust shall consume it.
DEU 28:39 Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink
of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them.
DEU 28:40 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.
DEU 28:41 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them;
for they shall go into captivity.
DEU 28:42 All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.
DEU 28:43 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high;
and thou shalt come down very low.
DEU 28:44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be
the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
DEU 28:45 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:
DEU 28:46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon
thy seed for ever.
DEU 28:47 Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with
gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;
DEU 28:48 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.
DEU 28:49 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;
DEU 28:50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person
of the old, nor shew favour to the young:
DEU 28:51 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.
DEU 28:52 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.
DEU 28:53 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:
DEU 28:54 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:
DEU 28:55 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.
DEU 28:56 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,
DEU 28:57 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.
DEU 28:58 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;
DEU 28:59 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.
DEU 28:60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which
thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
DEU 28:61 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.
DEU 28:62 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.
DEU 28:63 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.
DEU 28:64 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.
DEU 28:65 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:
DEU 28:66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear
day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:
DEU 28:67 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.
DEU 28:68 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.
DEU 29:1 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.
DEU 29:2 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;
DEU 29:3 The great temptations which thine eyes have seen, the signs, and
those great miracles:
DEU 29:4 Yet the LORD hath not given you an heart to perceive, and eyes to
see, and ears to hear, unto this day.
DEU 29:5 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.
DEU 29:6 Ye have not eaten bread, neither have ye drunk wine or strong drink:
that ye might know that I am the LORD your God.
DEU 29:7 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:
DEU 29:8 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.
DEU 29:9 Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may
prosper in all that ye do.
DEU 29:10 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,
DEU 29:11 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:
DEU 29:12 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:
DEU 29:13 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.
DEU 29:14 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath;
DEU 29:15 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:
DEU 29:16 (For ye know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt; and how we came
through the nations which ye passed by;
DEU 29:17 And ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and
stone, silver and gold, which were among them:)
DEU 29:18 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;
DEU 29:19 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:
DEU 29:20 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.
DEU 29:21 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:
DEU 29:22 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;
DEU 29:23 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:
DEU 29:24 Even all nations shall say, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto
this land? what meaneth the heat of this great anger?
DEU 29:25 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:
DEU 29:26 For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom
they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them:
DEU 29:27 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring
upon it all the curses that are written in this book:
DEU 29:28 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.
DEU 29:29 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.
DEU 30:1 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,
DEU 30:2 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;
DEU 30:3 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.
DEU 30:4 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:
DEU 30:5 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.
DEU 30:6 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.
DEU 30:7 And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies,
and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.
DEU 30:8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his
commandments which I command thee this day.
DEU 30:9 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:
DEU 30:10 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.
DEU 30:11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden
from thee, neither is it far off.
DEU 30:12 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?
DEU 30:13 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?
DEU 30:14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart,
that thou mayest do it.
DEU 30:15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and
evil;
DEU 30:16 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.
DEU 30:17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt
be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
DEU 30:18 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.
DEU 30:19 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:
DEU 30:20 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.
DEU 31:1 And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel.
DEU 31:2 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.
DEU 31:3 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.
DEU 31:4 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.
DEU 31:5 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.
DEU 31:6 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.
DEU 31:7 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.
DEU 31:8 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.
DEU 31:9 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.
DEU 31:10 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,
DEU 31:11 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.
DEU 31:12 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:
DEU 31:13 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.
DEU 31:14 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.
DEU 31:15 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.
DEU 31:16 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.
DEU 31:17 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?
DEU 31:18 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.
DEU 31:19 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.
DEU 31:20 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.
DEU 31:21 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.
DEU 31:22 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the
children of Israel.
DEU 31:23 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.
DEU 31:24 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,
DEU 31:25 That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant
of the LORD, saying,
DEU 31:26 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.
DEU 31:27 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?
DEU 31:28 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.
DEU 31:29 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.
DEU 31:30 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the
words of this song, until they were ended.
DEU 32:1 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the
words of my mouth.
DEU 32:2 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:
DEU 32:3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness
unto our God.
DEU 32:4 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.
DEU 32:5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his
children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.
DEU 32:6 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?
DEU 32:7 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.
DEU 32:8 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.
DEU 32:9 For the LORD's portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his
inheritance.
DEU 32:10 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.
DEU 32:11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young,
spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
DEU 32:12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with
him.
DEU 32:13 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;
DEU 32:14 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.
DEU 32:15 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.
DEU 32:16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations
provoked they him to anger.
DEU 32:17 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.
DEU 32:18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten
God that formed thee.
DEU 32:19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking
of his sons, and of his daughters.
DEU 32:20 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.
DEU 32:21 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.
DEU 32:22 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.
DEU 32:23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
DEU 32:24 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.
DEU 32:25 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young
man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.
DEU 32:26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the
remembrance of them to cease from among men:
DEU 32:27 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.
DEU 32:28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any
understanding in them.
DEU 32:29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would
consider their latter end!
DEU 32:30 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?
DEU 32:31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being
judges.
DEU 32:32 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:
DEU 32:33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
DEU 32:34 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my
treasures?
DEU 32:35 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.
DEU 32:36 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.
DEU 32:37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they
trusted,
DEU 32:38 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.
DEU 32:39 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.
DEU 32:40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
DEU 32:41 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.
DEU 32:42 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.
DEU 32:43 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.
DEU 32:44 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears
of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
DEU 32:45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
DEU 32:46 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.
DEU 32:47 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.
DEU 32:48 And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
DEU 32:49 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:
DEU 32:50 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:
DEU 32:51 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.
DEU 32:52 Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go
thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
DEU 33:1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the
children of Israel before his death.
DEU 33:2 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.
DEU 33:3 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.
DEU 33:4 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of
Jacob.
DEU 33:5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the
tribes of Israel were gathered together.
DEU 33:6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few.
DEU 33:7 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.
DEU 33:8 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;
DEU 33:9 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.
DEU 33:10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall
put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
DEU 33:11 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.
DEU 33:12 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.
DEU 33:13 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,
DEU 33:14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the
precious things put forth by the moon,
DEU 33:15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the
precious things of the lasting hills,
DEU 33:16 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.
DEU 33:17 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.
DEU 33:18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and,
Issachar, in thy tents.
DEU 33:19 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.
DEU 33:20 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.
DEU 33:21 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.
DEU 33:22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from
Bashan.
DEU 33:23 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.
DEU 33:24 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.
DEU 33:25 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy
strength be.
DEU 33:26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the
heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.
DEU 33:27 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.
DEU 33:28 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.
DEU 33:29 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.
DEU 34:1 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,
DEU 34:2 And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the
land of Judah, unto the utmost sea,
DEU 34:3 And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of
palm trees, unto Zoar.
DEU 34:4 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.
DEU 34:5 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab,
according to the word of the LORD.
DEU 34:6 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.
DEU 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye
was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
DEU 34:8 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.
DEU 34:9 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.
DEU 34:10 And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom
the LORD knew face to face,
DEU 34:11 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,
DEU 34:12 And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses
shewed in the sight of all Israel.
