These are the words which Moses spake unto all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.

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 Jehovah had given him in commandment unto them;

Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

Then Moses set apart three cities beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising;

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

these are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt,

beyond the Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, when they came forth out of Egypt.

And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and observe to do them.

And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep all the commandment which I command you this day.

And Moses and the priests the Levites spake unto all Israel, saying, Keep silence, and hearken, O Israel: this day thou art become the people of Jehovah thy God.

And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,

These are the words of the covenant which Jehovah commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.

And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Ye have seen all that Jehovah did before your eyes in the land of Egypt unto Pharaoh, and unto all his servants, and unto all his land;

And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel.

And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of good courage: for thou shalt go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and unto all the elders of Israel.

And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every'seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tent of meeting.

And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and play the harlot after the strange gods of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.

So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel.

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,

that Moses commanded the Levites, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying,

And Moses spake in the ears of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song, until they were finished.

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

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

And Jehovah spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,

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

Moses commanded us a law, An inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.

And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And Jehovah showed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan,

So Moses the servant of Jehovah died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of Jehovah.

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

And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days: so the days of weeping in the mourning for Moses were ended.

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 Jehovah commanded Moses.

And there hath not arisen a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom Jehovah knew face to face,

and in all the mighty hand, and in all the great terror, which Moses wrought in the sight of all Israel.
