{And it was} in the fortieth year, on the eleventh month, on [the] first [day] of the month, Moses spoke to the {Israelites} according to all that Yahweh had instructed him [to speak] to them.

On the other side of the Jordan in the land of Moab Moses began to explain this law, {saying}:

Then Moses set apart three cities {on the other side of the Jordan}, {toward the east},

Now this [is] the law that Moses set {before} the {Israelites};

these are the legal provisions and the rules and the regulations that Moses spoke to the {Israelites} {when they left Egypt},

beyond the Jordan in the valley opposite Beth Peor in the land of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who [was] reigning in Heshbon [and] whom Moses and the {Israelites} defeated {when they came out of Egypt}.

And [then] Moses summoned all [of] Israel and said to them, "Hear, Israel, the rules and the regulations that I [am] speaking in your ears {today}, and you shall learn them, and {you must observe them diligently}.

Then Moses and the elders of Israel charged the people, {saying}, "Keep all of the commandment that I [am] commanding you {today}.

Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, spoke to all Israel, saying, "Be silent and hear, Israel, [for] this day you have become {a people} for Yahweh your God.

And Moses charged the people on that day, {saying},

These [are] the words of the covenant that Yahweh commanded Moses to make with the {Israelites} in the land of Moab {besides} the covenant that he made with them at Horeb.

And Moses summoned all of Israel and said to them, "You saw all that Yahweh did before your eyes in the land of Egypt and to Pharaoh and to all his servants and to all his land;

And Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel.

Then Moses summoned Joshua, and he said to him {in the presence of all Israel}, "Be strong and be courageous, for you will go with this people into the land that Yahweh swore to their ancestors to give to them, and you will give it to them as an inheritance.

So Moses wrote this law, and he gave it to the priests, the descendants of Levi, the [ones] carrying the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and to all the elders of Israel.

Then Moses commanded them, {saying}, "At the end of seven years, in the time of the year for canceling debts during the Feast of Booths,

Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Look, {you are about to die}; call Joshua and present yourselves in [the] tent of assembly, so that I may instruct him." So Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in [the] tent of assembly.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Look, you [are] about to lie [down] with your ancestors, and this people will arise and they will play the prostitute after {the foreign gods} of the land {to which they are going}.

And Moses wrote this song on that day and taught it [to] the {Israelites}.

{And then when Moses finished writing} the words of this law on the scroll {until they were complete},

then Moses commanded the Levites carrying the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, {saying},

So Moses spoke into the ears of the assembly of Israel the words of this song {until they were complete}.

And Moses came, and he spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people; [that is], he and Joshua the son of Nun.

{And when Moses finished speaking} all these words to all Israel,

And Yahweh said to Moses on exactly this day, {saying},

Now this [is] the blessing [with] which Moses, the man of God, blessed the {Israelites} {before} his death.

Then Moses went up from the desert plateau of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, {which is opposite} Jericho, and Yahweh showed him all of the land, Gilead [all the way] up to Dan,

Then Moses, the servant of Yahweh, died there in the land of Moab {according to the command of Yahweh}.

{Now Moses was a hundred and twenty years old} {when he died}; {his sight was not impaired and his vigor had not abated}.

And the {Israelites} wept [concerning] Moses thirty days; [finally] the days of weeping and mourning for Moses were completed.

Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom because Moses had placed his hands on him, and the {Israelites} listened to him, and they did as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

And not again has a prophet arisen in Israel like Moses, whom Yahweh knew face to face,

and as far as all of {the mighty deeds} and as far as {the great awesome wonders} Moses did before the eyes of all Israel.
