11  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 .

 12  (There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of 
mount Seir unto Kadeshbarnea .

 13  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 .

 14  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 .

 15  On this side Jordan in the land of Moab began Moses to 
declare this law saying .

 16  The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb saying Ye have 
dwelt long enough in this mount .

 17  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 .

 18  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 .

 19  And I spake unto you at that time saying I am not able to 
bear you myself alone .

 110  The LORD your God hath multiplied you and behold ye are 
this day as the stars of heaven for multitude .

 111  (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 .

 112  How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance and your burden 
and your strife .

 113  Take you wise men and understanding and known among your 
tribes and I will make them rulers over you .

 114  And ye answered me and said The thing which thou hast 
spoken is good for us to do .

 115  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 .

 116  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 .

 117  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 .

 118  And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye 
should do .

 119  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 .

 120  And I said unto you Ye are come unto the mountain of the 
Amorites which the LORD our God doth give unto us .

 121  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 .

 122  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 .

 123  And the saying pleased me well and I took twelve men of 
you one of a tribe .

 124  And they turned and went up into the mountain and came 
unto the valley of Eshcol and searched it out .

 125  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 .

 126  Notwithstanding ye would not go up but rebelled against 
the commandment of the LORD your God .

 127  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 .

 128  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 .

 129  Then I said unto you Dread not neither be afraid of them .

 130  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 .

 131  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 .

 132  Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God .

 133  Who went in the way before you to search you out a place 
to pitch your tents in in fire by night to show you by what way 
ye should go and in a cloud by day .

 134  And the LORD heard the voice of your words and was wroth 
and sware saying .

 135  Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil 
generation see that good land which I sware to give unto your 
fathers .

 136  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 .

 137  Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes saying Thou 
also shalt not go in thither .

 138  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 .

 139  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 .

 140  But as for you turn you and take your journey into the 
wilderness by the way of the Red sea .

 141  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 .

 142  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 .

 143  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 .

 144  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 .

 145  And ye returned and wept before the LORD but the LORD 
would not hearken to your voice nor give ear unto you .

 146  So ye abode in Kadesh many days according unto the days 
that ye abode there .

* 21  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 .

 22  And the LORD spake unto me saying .

 23  Ye have compassed this mountain long enough turn you 
northward .

 24  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 .

 25  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 .

 26  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 .

 27  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 .

 28  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 .

 29  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 .

 210  The Emims dwelt therein in times past a people great and 
many and tall as the Anakims .

 211  Which also were accounted giants as the Anakims but the 
Moabites call them Emims .

 212  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 .

 213  Now rise up said I and get you over the brook Zered And we 
went over the brook Zered .

 214  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 .

 215  For indeed the hand of the LORD was against them to 
destroy them from among the host until they were consumed .

 216  So it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed 
and dead from among the people .

 217  That the LORD spake unto me saying .

 218  Thou art to pass over through Ar the coast of Moab this 
day .

 219  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 .

 220  (That also was accounted a land of giants giants dwelt 
therein in old time and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims .

 221  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 .

 222  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 .

 223  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 .

 224  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 .

 225  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 .

 226  And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth 
unto Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace saying .

 227  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 .

 228  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 .

 229  (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 .

 230  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 .

 231  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 .

 232  Then Sihon came out against us he and all his people to 
fight at Jahaz .

 233  And the LORD our God delivered him before us and we smote 
him and his sons and all his people .

 234  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 .

 235  Only the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves and the 
spoil of the cities which we took .

 236  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 .

 237  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 .

* 31  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 .

 32  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 .

 33  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 .

 34  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 .

 35  All these cities were fenced with high walls gates and bars 
beside unwalled towns a great many .

 36  And we utterly destroyed them as we did unto Sihon king of 
Heshbon utterly destroying the men women and children of every 
city .

 37  But all the cattle and the spoil of the cities we took for 
a prey to ourselves .

 38  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 .

 39  (Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion and the Amorites 
call it Shenir .

 310  All the cities of the plain and all Gilead and all Bashan 
unto Salchah and Edrei cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan .

 311  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 .

 312  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 .

 313  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 .

 314  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 .

 315  And I gave Gilead unto Machir .

 316  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 .

 317  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 .

 318  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 .

 319  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 .

 320  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 .

 321  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 .

 322  Ye shall not fear them for the LORD your God he shall 
fight for you .

 323  And I besought the LORD at that time saying .

 324  O Lord GOD thou hast begun to show 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 .

 325  I pray thee let me go over and see the good land that is 
beyond Jordan that goodly mountain and Lebanon .

 326  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 .

 327  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 .

 328  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 .

 329  So we abode in the valley over against Bethpeor .

 * 41  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 .

 42  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 .

 43  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 .

 44  But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive 
every one of you this day .

 45  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 .

 46  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 .

 47  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 .

 48  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 .

 49  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 .

 410  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 .

 411  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 .

 412  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 .

 413  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 .

 414  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 .

 415  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 .

 416  Lest ye corrupt yourselves and make you a graven image the 
similitude of any figure the likeness of male or female .

 417  The likeness of any beast that is on the earth the 
likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air .

 418  The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground the 
likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth .

 419  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 .

 420  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 .

 421  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 .

 422  But I must die in this land I must not go over Jordan but 
ye shall go over and possess that good land .

 423  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 .

 424  For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire even a jealous 
God .

 425  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 .

 426  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 .

 427  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 .

 428  And there ye shall serve gods the work of men's hands wood 
and stone which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell .

 429  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 .

 430  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 .

 431  (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 .

 432  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 .

 433  Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the 
midst of the fire as thou hast heard and live .

 434  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 .

 435  Unto thee it was showed that thou mightest know that the 
LORD he is God there is none else beside him .

 436  Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice that he might 
instruct thee and upon earth he showed thee his great fire and 
thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire .

 437  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 .

 438  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 .

 439  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 .

 440  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 .

 441  Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward 
the sun rising .

 442  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 .

 443  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 .

 444  And this is the law which Moses set before the children of 
Israel .

 445  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 .

 446  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 .

 447  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 sun rising .

 448  From Aroer which is by the bank of the river Arnon even 
unto mount Sion which is Hermon .

 449  And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward even unto 
the sea of the plain under the springs of Pisgah .

* 51  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 .

 52  The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb .

 53  The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers but with 
us even us who are all of us here alive this day .

 54  The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of 
the midst of the fire .

 55  (I stood between the LORD and you at that time to show you 
the word of the LORD for ye were afraid by reason of the fire 
and went not up into the mount saying .

 56  I am the LORD thy God which brought thee out of the land of 
Egypt from the house of bondage .

 57  Thou shalt have none other gods before me .

 58  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 .

 59  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 .

 510  And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and 
keep my commandments .

 511  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 .

 512  Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it as the LORD thy God 
hath commanded thee .

 513  Six days thou shalt labour and do all thy work .

 514  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 .

 515  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 .

 516  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 .

 517  Thou shalt not kill .

 518  Neither shalt thou commit adultery .

 519  Neither shalt thou steal .

 520  Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy 
neighbour .

 521  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 .

 522  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 .

 523  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 .

 524  And ye said Behold the LORD our God hath showed 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 .

 525  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 .

 526  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 .

 527  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 .

 528  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 .

 529  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 .

 530  Go say to them Get you into your tents again .

 531  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 .

 532  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 .

 533  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 .

* 61  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 .

62  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 .

 63  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 .

 64  Hear O Israel The LORD our God is one LORD .

 65  And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart 
and with all thy soul and with all thy might .

 66  And these words which I command thee this day shall be in 
thine heart .

 67  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 .

 68  And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand and 
they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes .

 69  And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house and 
on thy gates .

 610  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 .

 611  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 .

 612  Then beware lest thou forget the LORD which brought thee 
forth out of the land of Egypt from the house of bondage .

 613  Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God and serve him and shalt 
swear by his name .

 614  Ye shall not go after other gods of the gods of the people 
which are round about you .

 615  (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 .

 616  Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God as ye tempted him in 
Massah .

 617  Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your 
God and his testimonies and his statutes which he hath commanded 
thee .

 618  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 .

 619  To cast out all thine enemies from before thee as the LORD 
hath spoken .

 620  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 .

 621  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 
.

 622  And the LORD showed signs and wonders great and sore upon 
Egypt upon Pharaoh and upon all his household before our eyes .

 623  And he brought us out from thence that he might bring us 
in to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers .

 624  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 .

 625  And it shall be our righteousness if we observe to do all 
these commandments before the LORD our God as he hath commanded 
us .

* 71  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 .

 72  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 show mercy unto them .

 73  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 .

 74  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 .

 75  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 .

 76  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 .

 77  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 .

 78  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 .

 79  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 .

 710  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 .

 711  Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments and the 
statutes and the judgments which I command thee this day to do 
them .

 712  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 .

 713  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 .

 714  Thou shalt be blessed above all people there shall not be 
male or female barren among you or among your cattle .

 715  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 .

 716  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 .

 717  If thou shalt say in thine heart These nations are more 
than I how can I dispossess them .

 718  Thou shalt not be afraid of them but shalt well remember 
what the LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh and unto all Egypt .

 719  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 .

 720  Moreover the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them 
until they that are left and hide themselves from thee be 
destroyed .

 721  Thou shalt not be affrighted at them for the LORD thy God 
is among you a mighty God and terrible .

 722  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 .

 723  But the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee and 
shall destroy them with a mighty destruction until they be 
destroyed .

 724  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 .

 725  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 therein for it is an 
abomination to the LORD thy God .

 726  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 .

* 81  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 .

 82  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 .

 83  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 .

 84  Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee neither did thy foot 
swell these forty years .

 85  Thou shalt also consider in thine heart that as a man 
chasteneth his son so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee .

 86  Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy 
God to walk in his ways and to fear him .

 87  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 .

 88  A land of wheat and barley and vines and fig trees and 
pomegranates a land of oil olive and honey .

 89  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 .

 810  When thou hast eaten and art full then thou shalt bless 
the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee .

 811  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 .

 812  Lest when thou hast eaten and art full and hast built 
goodly houses and dwelt therein .

 813  And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply and thy silver 
and thy gold is multiplied and all that thou hast is multiplied .

 814  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 .

 815  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 .

 816  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 .

 817  And thou say in thine heart My power and the might of mine 
hand hath gotten me this wealth .

 818  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 .

 819  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 .

 820  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 .

* 91  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 .

 92  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 .

 93  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 .

 94  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 .

 95  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 .

 96  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 .

 97  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 .

 98  Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath so that the 
LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you .

 99  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 .

 910  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 .

 911  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 .

 912  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 .

 913  Furthermore the LORD spake unto me saying I have seen this 
people and behold it is a stiffnecked people .

 914  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 .

 915  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 .

 916  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 .

 917  And I took the two tables and cast them out of my two 
hands and brake them before your eyes .

 918  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 .

 919  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 .

 920  And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed 
him and I prayed for Aaron also the same time .

 921  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 .

 922  And at Taberah and at Massah and at Kibrothhattaavah ye 
provoked the LORD to wrath .

 923  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 .

 924  Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that 
I knew you .

 925  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 .

 926  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 .

 927  Remember thy servants Abraham Isaac and Jacob look not 
unto the stubbornness of this people nor to their wickedness nor 
to their sin .

 928  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 .

 929  Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance which thou 
broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm .

* 101  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 .

 102  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 .

 103  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 .

 104  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 .

 105  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 .

 106  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 .

 107  From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah and from Gudgodah 
to Jotbath a land of rivers of waters .

 108  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 .

 109  Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his 
brethren the LORD is his inheritance according as the LORD thy 
God promised him .

 1010  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 .

 1011  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 .

 1012  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 .

 1013  To keep the commandments of the LORD and his statutes 
which I command thee this day for thy good .

 1014  Behold the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD'S 
thy God the earth also with all that therein is .

 1015  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 .

 1016  Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart and be no 
more stiffnecked .

 1017  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 .

 1018  He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow 
and loveth the stranger in giving him food and raiment .

 1019  Love ye therefore the stranger for ye were strangers in 
the land of Egypt .

 1020  Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God him shalt thou serve and 
to him shalt thou cleave and swear by his name .

 1021  He is thy praise and he is thy God that hath done for 
thee these great and terrible things which thine eyes have seen .

 1022  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 .

* 111  Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God and keep his 
charge and his statutes and his judgments and his commandments 
alway .

 112  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 .

 113  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 .

 114  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 .

 115  And what he did unto you in the wilderness until ye came 
into this place .

 116  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 .

 117  But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD 
which he did .

 118  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 .

 119  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 .

 1110  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 .

 1111  But the land whither ye go to possess it is a land of 
hills and valleys and drinketh water of the rain of heaven .

 1112  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 .

 1113  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 .

 1114  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 .

 1115  And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle that 
thou mayest eat and be full .

 1116  Take heed to yourselves that your heart be not deceived 
and ye turn aside and serve other gods and worship them .

 1117  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 .

 1118  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 .

 1119  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 .

 1120  And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine 
house and upon thy gates .

 1121  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 .

 1122  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 .

 1123  Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from 
before you and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier 
than yourselves .

 1124  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 .

 1125  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 .

 1126  Behold I set before you this day a blessing and a curse .

 1127  A blessing if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your 
God which I command you this day .

 1128  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 .

 1129  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 .

 1130  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 .

 1131  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 .

 1132  And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments 
which I set before you this day .

* 121  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 .

 122  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 .

 123  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 .

 124  Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God .

 125  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 .

 126  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 .

 127  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 .

 128  Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this 
day every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes .

 129  For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the 
inheritance which the LORD your God giveth you .

 1210  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 .

 1211  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 .

 1212  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 .

 1213  Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt 
offerings in every place that thou seest .

 1214  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 .

 1215  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 .

 1216  Only ye shall not eat the blood ye shall pour it upon the 
earth as water .

 1217  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  .

 1218  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 .

 1219  Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as 
long as thou livest upon the earth .

 1220  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 .

 1221  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 .

 1222  Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten so thou shalt 
eat them the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike .

 1223  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 .

 1224  Thou shalt not eat it thou shalt pour it upon the earth 
as water .

 1225  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 .

 1226  Only thy holy things which thou hast and thy vows thou 
shalt take and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose .

 1227  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 .

 1228  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 .

 1229  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 .

 1230  Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following 
them after that they be destroyed from before thee and that thou 
inquire not after their gods saying How did these nations serve 
their gods even so will I do likewise .

 1231  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 .

 1232  What thing soever I command you observe to do it thou 
shalt not add thereto nor diminish from it .

* 131  If there arise among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams 
and giveth thee a sign or a wonder .

 132  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 .

 133  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 .

 134  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 .

 135  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 .

 136  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 .

 137  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 .

 138  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 .

 139  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 .

 1310  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 .

 1311  And all Israel shall hear and fear and shall do no more 
any such wickedness as this is among you .

 1312  If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities which the 
LORD thy God hath given thee to dwell there saying .

 1313  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 .

 1314  Then shalt thou inquire and make search and ask 
diligently and behold if it be truth and the thing certain that 
such abomination is wrought among you .

 1315  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 .

 1316  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  .

 1317  And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to 
thine hand that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his 
anger and show thee mercy and have compassion upon thee and 
multiply thee as he hath sworn unto thy fathers .

 1318  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 .

* 141  Ye are the children of the LORD your God ye shall not cut 
yourselves nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead .

 142  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 .

 143  Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing .

 144  These are the beasts which ye shall eat the ox the sheep 
and the goat .

 145  The hart and the roebuck and the fallow deer and the wild 
goat and the pygarg and the wild ox and the chamois .

 146  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 .

 147  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 .

 148  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 .

 149  These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters all that 
have fins and scales shall ye eat .

 1410  And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat it 
is unclean unto you .

 1411  Of all clean birds ye shall eat .

 1412  But these are they of which ye shall not eat the eagle 
and the ossifrage and the osprey .

 1413  And the glede and the kite and the vulture after his kind 
.

 1414  And every raven after his kind .

 1415  And the owl and the night hawk and the cuckoo and the 
hawk after his kind .

 1416  The little owl and the great owl and the swan .

 1417  And the pelican and the gier eagle and the cormorant .

 1418  And the stork and the heron after her kind and the 
lapwing and the bat .

 1419  And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you 
they shall not be eaten .

 1420  But of all clean fowls ye may eat .

 1421  Ye shall not eat of any thing 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 .

 1422  Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed that 
the field bringeth forth year by year .

 1423  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 .

 1424  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 .

 1425  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 .

 1426  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 .

 1427  And the Levite that is within thy gates thou shalt not 
forsake him for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee .

 1428  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 .

 1429  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 .

* 151  At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release 
.

 152  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 .

 153  Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again but that which 
is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release .

 154  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 .

 155  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 .

 156  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 .

 157  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 .

 158  But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him and shalt 
surely lend him sufficient for his need in that which he wanteth 
.

 159  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 .

 1510  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 .

 1511  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 .

 1512  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 .

 1513  And when thou sendest him out free from thee thou shalt 
not let him go away empty .

 1514  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 .

 1515  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 .

 1516  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 .

 1517  Then thou shalt take an awl 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 .

 1518  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 .

 1519  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 .

 1520  Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in 
the place which the LORD shall choose thou and thy household .

 1521  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 .

 1522  Thou shalt eat it within thy gates the unclean and the 
clean person shall eat it alike as the roebuck and as the hart .

 1523  Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof thou shalt pour 
it upon the ground as water .

* 161  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 .

 162  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 .

 163  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 .

 164  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 .

 165  Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy 
gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee .

 166  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 .

 167  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 .

 168  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 .

 169  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 .

 1610  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 .

 1611  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 .

 1612  And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt 
and thou shalt observe and do these statutes .

 1613  Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days 
after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine .

 1614  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 .

 1615  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 .

 1616  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 .

 1617  Every man shall give as he is able according to the 
blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee .

 1618  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 .

 1619  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 .

 1620  That which is altogether just shalt thou follow that thou 
mayest live and inherit the land which the LORD thy God giveth 
thee .

 1621  Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto 
the altar of the LORD thy God which thou shalt make thee .

 1622  Neither shalt thou set thee up any image which the LORD 
thy God hateth .

* 171  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 .

 172  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 .

 173  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 .

 174  And it be told thee and thou hast heard of it and inquired 
diligently and behold it be true and the thing certain that such 
abomination is wrought in Israel .

 175  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 .

 176  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 .

 177  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 .

 178  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 .

 179  And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites and unto 
the judge that shall be in those days and inquire and they shall 
show thee the sentence of judgment .

 1710  And thou shalt do according to the sentence which they of 
that place which the LORD shall choose shall show thee and thou 
shalt observe to do according to all that they inform thee .

 1711  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 show thee to the right hand nor to the left .

 1712  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 .

 1713  And all the people shall hear and fear and do no more 
presumptuously .

 1714  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 .

 1715  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 .

 1716  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 .

 1717  Neither shall he multiply wives to himself that his heart 
turn not away neither shall he greatly multiply to himself 
silver and gold .

 1718  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 .

 1719  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 .

 1720  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 .

* 181  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 .

 182  Therefore shall they have no inheritance among their 
brethren the LORD is their inheritance as he hath said unto them 
.

 183  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 .

 184  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 
.

 185  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 .

 186  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 .

 187  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 .

 188  They shall have like portions to eat beside that which 
cometh of the sale of his patrimony .

 189  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 .

 1810  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 .

 1811  Or a charmer or a consulter with familiar spirits or a 
wizard or a necromancer .

 1812  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 .

 1813  Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God .

 1814  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 .

 1815  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 .

 1816  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 .

 1817  And the LORD said unto me They have well spoken that 
which they have spoken .

 1818  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 .

 1819  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 .

 1820  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 .

 1821  And if thou say in thine heart How shall we know the word 
which the LORD hath not spoken .

 1822  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 .

* 191  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 .

 192  Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of 
thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it .

 193  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 .

 194  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 .

 195  As when a man goeth into the wood with his neighbour to 
hew wood and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the ax 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 .

 196  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 .

 197  Wherefore I command thee saying Thou shalt separate three 
cities for thee .

 198  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 .

 199  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 .

 1910  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 .

 1911  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 .

 1912  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 .

 1913  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 .

 1914  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 .

 1915  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 .

 1916  If a false witness rise up against any man to testify 
against him that which is wrong .

 1917  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 .

 1918  And the judges shall make diligent inquisition and behold 
if the witness be a false witness and hath testified falsely 
against his brother .

 1919  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 .

 1920  And those which remain shall hear and fear and shall 
henceforth commit no more any such evil among you .

 1921  And thine eye shall not pity but life shall go for life 
eye for eye tooth for tooth hand for hand foot for foot .

* 201  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 .

 202  And it shall be when ye are come nigh unto the battle that 
the priest shall approach and speak unto the people .

 203  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 .

 204  For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you to fight 
for you against your enemies to save you .

 205  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 .

 206  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 .

 207  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 .

 208  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 .

 209  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 .

 2010  When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it 
then proclaim peace unto it .

 2011  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 
.

 2012  And if it will make no peace with thee but will make war 
against thee then thou shalt besiege it .

 2013  And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine 
hands thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the 
sword .

 2014  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 .

 2015  Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far 
off from thee which are not of the cities of these nations .

 2016  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 .

 2017  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 .

 2018  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 .

 2019  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 ax 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 .

 2020  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 .

* 211  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 .

 212  Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth and they 
shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is 
slain .

 213  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 .

 214  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 .

 215  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 .

 216  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 .

 217  And they shall answer and say Our hands have not shed this 
blood neither have our eyes seen it .

 218  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 .

 219  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 .

 2110  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 .

 2111  And seest among the captives a beautiful woman and hast a 
desire unto her that thou wouldest have her to thy wife .

 2112  Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house and she 
shall shave her head and pare her nails .

 2113  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 .

 2114  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 .

 2115  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 .

 2116  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 .

 2117  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 .

 2118  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 .

 2119  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 .

 2120  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 .

 2121  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 .

 2122  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 .

 2123  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 .

* 221  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 .

 222  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 .

 223  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 .

 224  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 .

 225  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 .

 226  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 .

 227  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 .

 228  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 .

 229  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 .

 2210  Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together .

 2211  Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts as of 
woollen and linen together .

 2212  Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of 
thy vesture wherewith thou coverest thyself .

 2213  If any man take a wife and go in unto her and hate her .

 2214  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 .

 2215  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 .

 2216  And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders I gave 
my daughter unto this man to wife and he hateth her .

 2217  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 .

 2218  And the elders of that city shall take that man and 
chastise him .

 2219  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  .

 2220  But if this thing be true and the tokens of virginity be 
not found for the damsel .

 2221  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 .

 2222  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 .

 2223  If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband 
and a man find her in the city and lie with her .

 2224  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 .

 2225  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 .

 2226  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 .

 2227  For he found her in the field and the betrothed damsel 
cried and there was none to save her .

 2228  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 
.

 2229  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 .

 2230  A man shall not take his father's wife nor discover his 
father's skirt .

* 231  He that is wounded in the stones or hath his privy member 
cut off shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD .

 232  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 .

 233  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 .

 234  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 .

 235  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 .

 236  Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all 
thy days for ever .

 237  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 .

 238  The children that are begotten of them shall enter into 
the congregation of the LORD in their third generation .

 239  When the host goeth forth against thine enemies then keep 
thee from every wicked thing .

 2310  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 .

 2311  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 .

 2312  Thou shalt have a place also without the camp whither 
thou shalt go forth abroad .

 2313  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 .

 2314  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 .

 2315  Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which 
is escaped from his master unto thee .

 2316  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 .

 2317  There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel nor a 
sodomite of the sons of Israel .

 2318  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 .

 2319  Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother usury of 
money usury of victuals usury of any thing that is lent upon 
usury .

 2320  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 .

 2321  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 .

 2322  But if thou shalt forbear to vow it shall be no sin in 
thee .

 2323  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 .

 2324  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 .

 2325  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 .

* 241  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 .

 242  And when she is departed out of his house she may go and 
be another man's wife .

 243  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 
.

 244  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 .

 245  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 .

 246  No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to 
pledge for he taketh a man's life to pledge .

 247  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 .

 248  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 .

 249  Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way 
after that ye were come forth out of Egypt .

 2410  When thou dost lend thy brother any thing thou shalt not 
go into his house to fetch his pledge .

 2411  Thou shalt stand abroad and the man to whom thou dost 
lend shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee .

 2412  And if the man be poor thou shalt not sleep with his 
pledge .

 2413  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 .

 2414  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 .

 2415  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 .

 2416  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 .

 2417  Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger nor 
of the fatherless nor take a widow's raiment to pledge .

 2418  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 .

 2419  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 .

 2420  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 .

 2421  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 .

 2422  And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the 
land of Egypt therefore I command thee to do this thing .

* 251  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 .

 252  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 .

 253  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 .

 254  Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn 
.

 255  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 .

 256  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 .

 257  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 .

 258  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 .

 259  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 .

 2510  And his name shall be called in Israel The house of him 
that hath his shoe loosed .

 2511  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 .

 2512  Then thou shalt cut off her hand thine eye shall not pity 
her .

 2513  Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights a great and 
a small .

 2514  Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures a 
great and a small .

 2515  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 .

 2516  For all that do such things and all that do unrighteously 
are an abomination unto the LORD thy God .

 2517  Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way when ye 
were come forth out of Egypt .

 2518  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 .

 2519  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 .

* 261  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 .

 262  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 .

 263  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 .

 264  And the priest shall take the basket out of thine hand and 
set it down before the altar of the LORD thy God .

 265  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 .

 266  And the Egyptians evil entreated us and afflicted us and 
laid upon us hard bondage .

 267  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 .

 268  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 .

 269  And he hath brought us into this place and hath given us 
this land even a land that floweth with milk and honey .

 2610  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 .

 2611  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 .

 2612  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 .

 2613  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 .

 2614  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 .

 2615  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 
.

 2616  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 .

 2617  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 .

 2618  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 .

 2619  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 .

* 271  And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people 
saying Keep all the commandments which I command you this day .

 272  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 plaster them with plaster .

 273  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 .

 274  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 plaster them with plaster .

 275  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 .

 276  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 .

 277  And thou shalt offer peace offerings and shalt eat there 
and rejoice before the LORD thy God .

 278  And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this 
law very plainly .

 279  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 .

 2710  Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the LORD thy God 
and do his commandments and his statutes which I command thee 
this day .

 2711  And Moses charged the people the same day saying .

 2712  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 .

 2713  And these shall stand upon mount Ebal to curse Reuben Gad 
and Asher and Zebulun Dan and Naphtali .

 2714  And the Levites shall speak and say unto all the men of 
Israel with a loud voice .

 2715  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 .

 2716  Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his 
mother And all the people shall say Amen .

 2717  Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark And 
all the people shall say Amen .

 2718  Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the 
way And all the people shall say Amen .

 2719  Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger 
fatherless and widow And all the people shall say Amen .

 2720  Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife because he 
uncovereth his father's skirt And all the people shall say Amen .

 2721  Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast And all 
the people shall say Amen .

 2722  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 .

 2723  Cursed be he that lieth with his mother in law And all 
the people shall say Amen .

 2724  Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbour secretly And all 
the people shall say Amen .

 2725  Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent 
person And all the people shall say Amen .

 2726  Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this 
law to do them And all the people shall say Amen .

* 281  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 .

 282  And all these blessings shall come on thee and overtake 
thee if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God .

 283  Blessed shalt thou be in the city and blessed shalt thou 
be in the field .

 284  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 .

 285  Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store .

 286  Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in and blessed 
shalt thou be when thou goest out .

 287  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 .

 288  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 .

 289  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 .

 2810  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 .

 2811  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 .

 2812  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 .

 2813  And the LORD shall make thee the head and not the tail 
and thou shalt be above only and thou shalt not bebeneath if 
that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God 
which I command thee this day to observe and to do them .

 2814  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 .

 2815  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  .

 2816  Cursed shalt thou be in the city and cursed shalt thou be 
in the field .

 2817  Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store .

 2818  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 .

 2819  Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in and cursed shalt 
thou be when thou goest out .

 2820  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  .

 2821  The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee until 
he have consumed thee from off the land whither thou goest to 
possess it .

 2822  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 .

 2823  And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass and 
the earth that is under thee shall be iron .

 2824  The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust 
from heaven shall it come down upon thee until thou be destroyed 
.

 2825  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 .

 2826  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 
.

 2827  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 .

 2828  The LORD shall smite thee with madness and blindness and 
astonishment of heart .

 2829  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 .

 2830  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 .

 2831  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 .

 2832  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 .

 2833  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 .

 2834  So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes 
which thou shalt see .

 2835  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 .

 2836  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 .

 2837  And thou shalt become an astonishment a proverb and a 
byword among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee .

 2838  Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field and shalt 
gather but little in for the locust shall consume it  .

 2839  Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress them but shalt 
neither drink of the wine nor gather the grapes for the worms 
shall eat them .

 2840  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 .

 2841  Thou shalt beget sons and daughters but thou shalt not 
enjoy them for they shall go into captivity .

 2842  All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust 
consume .

 2843  The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee 
very high and thou shalt come down very low .

 2844  He shall lend to thee and thou shalt not lend to him he 
shall be the head and thou shalt be the tail .

 2845  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 .

 2846  And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder 
and upon thy seed for ever .

 2847  Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with 
joyfulness and with gladness of heart for the abundance of all 
things .

 2848  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 .

 2849  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 .

 2850  A nation of fierce countenance which shall not regard the 
person of the old nor show favour to the young .

 2851  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  .

 2852  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 .

 2853  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 .

 2854  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 .

 2855  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 .

 2856  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 .

 2857  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 .

 2858  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 .

 2859  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 .

 2860  Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of 
Egypt which thou wast afraid of and they shall cleave unto thee .

 2861  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 .

 2862  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 .

 2863  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 .

 2864  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 .

 2865  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 .

 2866  And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee and thou 
shalt fear day and night and shalt have none assurance of thy 
life .

 2867  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 .

 2868  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 .

* 291  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 .

292  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 .

 293  The great temptations which thine eyes have seen the signs 
and those great miracles .

 294  Yet the LORD hath not given you an heart to perceive and 
eyes to see and ears to hear unto this day .

 295  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 .

 296  Ye have not eaten bread neither have ye drunk wine or 
strong drink that ye might know that I am the LORD your God .

 297  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 .

 298  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 .

 299  Keep therefore the words of this covenant and do them that 
ye may prosper in all that ye do .

 2910  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 .

 2911  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 
.

 2912  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 .

 2913  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 .

 2914  Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this 
oath .

 2915  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 .

 2916  (For ye know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt and 
how we came through the nations which ye passed by .

 2917  And ye have seen their abominations and their idols wood 
and stone silver and gold which were among them .

 2918  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 .

 2919  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 .

 2920  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 .

 2921  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 .

 2922  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 .

 2923  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 .

 2924  Even all nations shall say Wherefore hath the LORD done 
thus unto this land what meaneth the heat of this great anger .

 2925  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 .

 2926  For they went and served other gods and worshipped them 
gods whom they knew not and whom he had not given unto them .

 2927  And the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land 
to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book .

 2928  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 .

 2929  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 .

* 301  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 .

 302  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 .

 303  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 .

 304  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 .

 305  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 .

 306  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 .

 307  And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine 
enemies and on them that hate thee which persecuted thee .

 308  And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD and 
do all his commandments which I command thee this day .

 309  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 .

 3010  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 .

 3011  For this commandment which I command thee this day it is 
not hidden from thee neither is it far off .

 3012  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 .

 3013  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 .

 3014  But the word is very nigh unto thee in thy mouth and in 
thy heart that thou mayest do it .

 3015  See I have set before thee this day life and good and 
death and evil .

 3016  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 .

 3017  But if thine heart turn away so that thou wilt not hear 
but shalt be drawn away and worship other gods and serve them .

 3018  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 .

 3019  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 .

 3020  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 .

* 311  And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel .

 312  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 .

 313  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 .

 314  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 .

 315  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 .

 316  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 .

 317  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 .

 318  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 .

 319  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 .

 3110  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 .

 3111  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 .

 3112  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 .

 3113  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 .

 3114  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 .

 3115  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 .

 3116  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 .

 3117  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 .

 3118  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 .

 3119  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 .

 3120  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 .

 3121  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 .

 3122  Moses therefore wrote this song the same day and taught 
it the children of Israel .

 3123  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 .

 3124  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 .

 3125  That Moses commanded the Levites which bare the ark of 
the covenant of the LORD saying .

 3126  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 .

 3127  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 .

 3128  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 .

 3129  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 .

 3130  And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of 
Israel the words of this song until they were ended .

* 321  Give ear O ye heavens and I will speak and hear O earth 
the words of my mouth .

 322  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 .

 323  Because I will publish the name of the LORD ascribe ye 
greatness unto our God .

 324  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 .

 325  They have corrupted themselves their spot is not the spot 
of his children they are a perverse and crooked generation .

 326  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 .

 327  Remember the days of old consider the years of many 
generations ask thy father and he will show thee thy elders and 
they will tell thee .

 328  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 .

 329  For the LORD'S portion is his people Jacob is the lot of 
his inheritance .

 3210  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 .

 3211  As an eagle stirreth up her nest fluttereth over her 
young spreadeth abroad her wings taketh them beareth them on her 
wings .

 3212  So the LORD alone did lead him and there was no strange 
god with him .

 3213  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 .

 3214  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 .

 3215  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 .

 3216  They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods with 
abominations provoked they him to anger .

 3217  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 .

 3218  Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful and hast 
forgotten God that formed thee .

 3219  And when the LORD saw it he abhorred them because of the 
provoking of his sons and of his daughters .

 3220  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 .

 3221  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 .

 3222  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 .

 3223  I will heap mischiefs upon them I will spend mine arrows 
upon them .

 3224  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 .

 3225  The sword without and terror within shall destroy both 
the young man and the virgin the suckling also with the man of 
gray hairs .

 3226  I said I would scatter them into corners I would make the 
remembrance of them to cease from among men .

 3227  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 .

 3228  For they are a nation void of counsel neither is there 
any understanding in them .

 3229  O that they were wise that they understood this that they 
would consider their latter end .

 3230  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 .

 3231  For their rock is not as our Rock even our enemies 
themselves being judges .

 3232  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 .

 3233  Their wine is the poison of dragons and the cruel venom 
of asps .

 3234  Is not this laid up in store with me and sealed up among 
my treasures .

 3235  To me belongeth vengeance and recompense 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 .

 3236  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 .

 3237  And he shall say Where are their gods their rock in whom 
they trusted .

 3238  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 .

 3239  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 .

 3240  For I lift up my hand to heaven and say I live for ever .

 3241  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 .

 3242  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 revengers upon the enemy .

 3243  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 
.

 3244  And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in 
the ears of the people he and Hoshea the son of Nun .

 3245  And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all 
Israel .

 3246  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 .

 3247  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 .

 3248  And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day saying .

 3249  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 .

 3250  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 .

 3251  Because ye trespassed against me among the children of 
Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin 
because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of 
Israel .

 3252  Yet thou shalt see the land before thee but thou shalt 
not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel 
.

* 331  And this is the blessing wherewith Moses the man of God 
blessed the children of Israel before his death .

 332  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 .

 333  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 .

 334  Moses commanded us a law even the inheritance of the 
congregation of Jacob .

 335  And he was king in Jeshurun when the heads of the people 
and the tribes of Israel were gathered together .

 336  Let Reuben live and not die and let not his men be few .

 337  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 .

 338  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 .

 339  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 .

 3310  They shall teach Jacob thy judgments and Israel thy law 
they shall put incense before thee and whole burnt sacrifice 
upon thine altar .

 3311  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 .

 3312  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 .

 3313  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 .

 3314  And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun and 
for the precious things put forth by the moon .

 3315  And for the chief things of the ancient mountains and for 
the precious things of the lasting hills .

 3316  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  .

 3317  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 .

 3318  And of Zebulun he said Rejoice Zebulun in thy going out 
and Issachar in thy tents .

 3319  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 .

 3320  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 .

 3321  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 .

 3322  And of Dan he said Dan is a lion's whelp he shall leap 
from Bashan .

 3323  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 .

 3324  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 .

 3325  Thy shoes shall be iron and brass and as thy days so 
shall thy strength be .

 3326  There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun who rideth 
upon the heaven in thy help and in his excellency on the sky .

 3327  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 .

 3328  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 .

 3329  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  .

* 341  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 showed him all the land of Gilead unto Dan .

 342  And all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh and 
all the land of Judah unto the utmost sea .

 343  And the south and the plain of the valley of Jericho the 
city of palm trees unto Zoar .

 344  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 .

 345  So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of 
Moab according to the word of the LORD .

 346  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 .

 347  And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died 
his eye was not dim nor his natural force abated .

 348  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 .

 349  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 .

 3410  And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto 
Moses whom the LORD knew face to face .

 3411  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 .

 3412  And in all that mighty hand and in all the great terror 
which Moses showed in the sight of all Israel .
