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

LORD our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough at this mountain.

LORD your God has multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

and in the wilderness, where thou have seen how that LORD thy God bore thee, as a man bears his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came to this place.

Yet in this thing ye did not believe LORD your God,

Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see the good land, which I swore to give to your fathers,

Moreover your little ones, who ye said would be a prey, and your sons, who this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there, and I will give it to them, and they shall possess it.

Ye have encompassed this mountain long enough, turn northward.

For LORD thy God has blessed thee in all the work of thy hand. He has known thy walking through this great wilderness. These forty years LORD thy God has been with thee; thou have lacked nothing.

Thou are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab.

as he did for the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them. And they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even to this day.

This day I will begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples who are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.

But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.

And we took this land in possession at that time. From Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead, and the cities of it, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.

(Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth-jair, to this day.)

And I commanded you at that time, saying, LORD your God has given you this land to possess it. Ye shall pass over armed before your brothers the sons of Israel, all the men of valor.

But LORD was angry with me because of you, and did not hearken to me. And LORD said to me, It shall be enough for thee. Speak no more to me of this matter.

Get thee up to the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold with thine eyes, for thou shall not go over this Jordan.

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 shall see.

But ye who clung to LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.

Keep therefore and do them, for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

And what great nation is there that has statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

But LORD has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as at this day.

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

I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land to which ye go over the Jordan to possess it. Ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall be utterly destroyed.

For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven to the other, whether there has been [anything] as this great thing is, or has been he

to drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as at this day.

Know therefore this day, and lay it to thy heart, that LORD he is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath. There is none else.

And thou shall keep his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy sons after thee, and that thou may prolong thy days in the land, which LORD thy God gives thee, fore

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

And Moses called to all Israel, and said to 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.

LORD did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.

And ye said, Behold, LORD our God has shown 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 speaks with man, and he lives.

Now therefore why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of LORD our God any more, then we shall die.

And LORD heard the voice of your words, when ye spoke to me. And LORD said to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken to thee. They have well said all that they have spoken.

Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances, which LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land where ye go over to possess it,

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be upon thy heart.

And LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear LORD our God for our good always, that he might preserve us alive as at this day.

And it shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this commandment before LORD our God as he has commanded us.

Thou shall therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command thee this day, to do them.

All the commandment which I command thee this day ye shall observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which LORD swore to your fathers.

Beware lest thou forget LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day.

And [lest] thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.

But thou shall remember LORD thy God, for it is he who gives thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore to thy fathers, as at this day.

And it shall be, if thou shall forget 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.

Hear, O Israel: Thou are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,

Know therefore this day, that LORD thy God is he who goes over before thee as a devouring fire. He will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee. So thou shall drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as LORD h

Do not speak thou in thy heart, after LORD thy God has thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness LORD has brought me in to possess this land. Whereas for the wickedness of these nations LORD drives them out fro

Know therefore, that LORD thy God does not give thee this good land to possess it for thy righteousness, for thou are a stiff-necked people.

Remember, do not thou forget how thou provoked LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that thou went forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came to this place, ye have been rebellious against LORD.

Furthermore LORD spoke to me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people.

Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Look not to the stubbornness of this people, nor to their profaneness, nor to their sin,

At that time LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of LORD, to stand before LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.

to keep the commandments of LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?

Only LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples as at this day.

And ye know this day, for [it is] not with your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,

and what he did to the army of Egypt, to 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 LORD has destroyed them to this day,

and what he did to you in the wilderness, until ye came to this place,

Therefore ye shall keep all the commandment which I command thee this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where ye go over to possess it,

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him,

Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:

the blessing, if ye shall hearken to the commandments of LORD your God, which I command you this day,

and the curse, if ye shall not hearken to the commandments of 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.

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

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

And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall no more do any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.

when thou shall hearken to the voice of LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of LORD thy God.

And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor shall release that which he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not exact it from his neighbor and his brother, because LORD's release has been proclaimed.

if only thou diligently hearken to the voice of LORD thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.

Thou shall surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou give to him, because for this thing LORD thy God will bless thee in all thy work, and in all that thou put thy hand to.

And thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in the land of Egypt, and LORD thy God redeemed thee. Therefore I command thee this thing today.

then thou shall bring forth that man or that woman, who has done this evil thing, to thy gates, even the man or the woman, and thou shall stone them to death with stones.

And it shall be, when he sits upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for him a copy of this law in a book, out of [it] before the priests the Levites,

and it shall be with him. And he shall read in it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them,

And this shall be the priests' due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep: that they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.

according to all that thou desired of LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die.

And this is the case of the manslayer, who shall flee there and live: Whoever kills his neighbor unawares, and did not hate him in time past,

if thou shall keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love LORD thy God, and to walk ever in his ways, then shall thou add three more cities for thee, besides these three,

and shall say to them, Hear, O Israel, ye draw near this day to battle against your enemies. Let not your heart faint. Fear not, nor tremble, neither be ye frightened at them.

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

And they shall say to 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.

and charges her with shameful things, and brings up an evil name upon her, and says, I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I did not find in her the tokens of virginity,

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

But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the damsel,

but to the damsel thou shall do nothing. There is in the damsel no sin worthy of death. For as when a man rises against his neighbor, and kills him, even so is this matter,

but thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt, and LORD thy God redeemed thee from there. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.

And thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.

And thou shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and say to him, I profess this day to LORD thy God, that I have come to the land which LORD swore to our fathers to give us.

And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

This day LORD thy God commands thee to do these statutes and ordinances. Thou shall therefore keep and do them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.

Thou have avouched LORD this day to be thy God, and that thou would walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and hearken to his voice.

And LORD has avouched thee this day to be a people for his own possession, as he has promised thee, and that thou should keep all his commandments,

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

And thou shall write upon them all the words of this law when thou have passed over, that thou may go in to the land which LORD thy God gives thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as LORD, the God of thy fathers, has promised t

And it shall be, when ye have passed over the Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shall plaster them with plaster.

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

And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Keep silence, and hearken, O Israel. This day thou have become the people of LORD thy God.
