Deuteronomy 29:9-15 - The Present Covenant Setting

9 Therefore, keep the terms of this covenant, carrying them out so that you'll be wise in everything you do."

10 "All of you are standing today in the presence of the LORD your God the heads of your tribes, your elders, your magistrates, all the men of Israel, 11 along with your children, your wives, even the foreigner in your camp, including the woodchopper and the water drawer 12 to enter into a covenant with the LORD your God and into the oath that he is about to make with you today, 13 so that he will elevate you to be a people for him. And he will be God to you, just as he promised you and swore to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 14 Now, I'm not making this covenant and oath with you alone, 15 but with whoever is here with us standing in the presence of the LORD our God today, as well as with those who aren't here with us today."
