And there I said unto you, 'Ye are come unto the hills of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us.

Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee. Go up and conquer it, as the LORD God of thy fathers sayeth unto thee: fear not, neither be discouraged.'

and 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.'

Notwithstanding, ye would not consent to go up, but were disobedient unto the mouth of the LORD your God,

The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did unto you in Egypt before your eyes

and in the wilderness: as thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee as a man should bear his son, throughout all the way which ye have gone, until ye came unto this place.'

And yet for all this saying ye did not believe the LORD your God,

'There shall not one of these men of this froward generation see that good land which I sware to give unto your fathers,

Moreover, your children, which ye said should be a prey; and your sons, which know neither good nor bad this day; they shall go in thither and unto them I will give it, and they shall enjoy it.

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 and were ready to go up into the hills,

And warn the people, saying: Ye shall go through the coasts of your brethren the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraid of you: But take good heed unto yourselves

For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thine hand, and knew thee as thou wentest through this great wilderness. Moreover, the LORD thy God hath been with thee this forty years, so that thou hast lacked nothing.'

'Now rise up,' said I, 'and get you over the river Zered.' And we went over the river Zered.

as the children of Esau did unto me, which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar - until I be come over Jordan, into the land which the LORD our God giveth us.'

But Sihon, the king of Heshbon, would not let us pass by him; for the LORD thy God had hardened his spirit and made his heart tough because he would deliver him into thy hands as it is come to pass this day.

from Aroer upon the brink of the river of Arnon, and the city in the river, unto Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us. The LORD our God delivered all unto us:

only, unto the land of the children of Ammon ye came not, nor unto all the coast of the river Jabbok nor unto the cities in the mountains, nor unto whatsoever the LORD our God forbade us.

And so the LORD our God delivered into our hands, Og also the king of Bashan and all his folk. And we smote him until nought was left him.

And unto Reuben and Gad, I gave from Gilead unto the river of Arnon and half the valley and the coast, even unto the river Jabbok which is the border of the children of Ammon,

And I commanded you the same time, ye Reuben and Gad, saying, 'The LORD your God hath given you this land to enjoy it: see that ye go harnessed before your brethren the children of Israel, all that are men of war among you.

until the LORD have given rest unto your brethren as well as unto you, and until they also have conquered the land which the LORD your God hath given them beyond Jordan: and then return again every man unto his possession which I have given you.'

And I warned Joshua the same time, saying, 'Thine eyes have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto these two kings; even so the LORD will do unto all kingdoms whither thou goest.

Fear them not, for the LORD your God, he it is that fighteth for you.'

'O Lord Jehovah, thou hast begun to show thy servant thy greatness and thy mighty hand, for there is no God in heaven nor in earth that can do after thy works and after thy power:

let me go over and see the good land that is beyond Jordan; that goodly high country, and Lebanon.'

Get thee up into the top of Pisgah and lift up thine eyes west, north, south and east, and behold it with thine eyes for thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

And now hearken, Israel, unto the ordinances and laws which I teach you, for to do them: that ye may live and go and conquer the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.

Ye shall put nothing unto the word which I command you, neither do ought therefrom, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

Your eyes have seen what the LORD did unto Baal-Peor: for all the men that followed Baal-Peor, the LORD your God hath destroyed from among you.

But ye that clave unto the LORD your God are alive, every one of you, this day.

Behold, I have taught you ordinances and laws, such as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do even so in the land whither ye go to possess it.

For what nation is so great that hath gods so nigh unto him as the LORD our God is nigh unto us, in all things, when we call unto him?

The day that I stood before the LORD your God in Horeb - when he said unto me, 'Gather me the people together, that I may make them hear my words that they may learn to fear me as long as they live upon the earth and that they may teach their children' -

Yea, and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars and whatsoever is contained in heaven, shouldest be deceived and shouldest bow thyself unto them and serve the things which the LORD thy God hath distributed unto all nations that are under all quarters of heaven.

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 unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inheritance.

For I must die in this land, and shall not go over Jordan: But ye shall go over and conquer that good land.

Take heed unto yourselves therefore, that ye forget not the covenant of the LORD your God which he made with you, and that ye make you no graven image of whatsoever it be that the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.

For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, and a jealous God.

If after thou hast gotten children and children's children and hast dwelt long in the land, ye shall mar yourselves and make graven images after the likeness of whatsoever it be, and shall work wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke him.

Neverthelater, ye shall seek the LORD your God even there, and shalt find him if thou seek him with all thine heart and with all thy soul.

In thy tribulation and when all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, thou shalt turn unto the LORD thy God, and shalt hearken unto his voice.

For the LORD thy God is a merciful God: he will not forsake thee neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant made with thy fathers which he sware unto them.

For ask, I pray thee, of the days that are past which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth and from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether anything hath been like unto this great thing or whether any such thing hath been heard as it is -

that a nation hath heard the voice of God speaking out of fire as thou hast heard, and yet lived?

Either, whether God assayed to go and take him a people from among nations, through temptations and signs and wonders and through war and with a mighty hand and a stretched-out arm and with mighty terrible sights, according unto all that the LORD your God did unto you in Egypt before your eyes.

Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know how that the LORD he is God and that there is none but he.

Understand, therefore, this day: and turn it to thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath, there is no more.

Keep therefore his ordinances, 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 forever."

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

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

Thou shalt neither bow thyself unto them nor serve them, for I the LORD thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the wickedness of the fathers upon the children, even in the third and the fourth generation, among them that hate me:

'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.

'Keep the Sabbath day that thou sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.

but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God; thou shalt do no manner work: neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy servant, nor thy maid, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor the stranger that is within thy city, that thy servant and thy maid may rest as well as thou.

And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and how that the LORD God brought thee out thence with a mighty hand and a stretched out arm. For which cause the LORD thy God commandeth thee to keep the Sabbath day.

'Honour thy father and thy mother, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee: that thou mayest prolong thy days, and that it may go well with thee on the land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

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 fire, and we have seen this day that God may talk with a man and he yet live.

And now wherefore should we die that this great fire should consume us: If we should hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, we should die.

For what is any flesh that he should hear the voice of the living God speaking out of the fire as we have done and should yet live:

Go thou and hear all that the LORD our God sayeth, and tell thou unto us all that the LORD our God sayeth unto thee, and we will hear it and do it.'

Go and say unto them: get you into your tents again.

Take heed therefore that ye do as the LORD your God hath commanded you, and turn not aside: either to the righthand or to the left:

but walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath commanded you, that ye may live and that it may go well with you and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.

These are the commandments, ordinances and laws which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:

that thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his ordinances and his commandments which I command thee; both thou and thy son and thy son's son all days of thy life, that thy days may be prolonged.

Hear therefore, Israel, and take heed that thou do thereafter, that it may go well with thee and that ye may increase mightily: even as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

Hear, O Israel, the LORD thy God is one LORD only.

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

And when the LORD thy God hath brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give thee with great and goodly cities which thou buildst not,

But fear the LORD thy God and serve him, and swear by his name,

For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you - lest the wrath of the LORD thy God wax hot upon thee and destroy thee from the earth.

Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God as ye did at Massah.

But see that ye keep the commandments of the LORD your God, his witnesses and his ordinances which he hath commanded thee,

and see thou do that which is right and good in the sight of the LORD: that thou mayest prosper and that thou mayest go and conquer that good land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers,

When thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, 'What meaneth the witnesses, ordinances and laws which the LORD our God hath commanded you?'

And therefore commanded us to do all these ordinances and for to fear the LORD our God, for our wealth always and that he might save us, as it is come to pass this day.

Moreover it shall be righteousness unto us before the LORD our God, if we take heed to keep all these commandments as he hath commanded us.'

When the LORD thy God hath brought thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee: the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perezites, the Hivites and the Jebusites; seven nations more in number and mightier than thou:

and when the LORD thy God hath set them before thee that thou shouldest smite them: see that thou utterly destroy them and make no covenant with them nor have compassion on them.

But thus ye shall deal with them: overthrow their altars, break down their pillars, cut down their groves and burn their images with fire.

For thou art a holy nation unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a several people unto himself of all nations that are upon the earth.

Understand, therefore, that the LORD thy God, he is God: and that a true God, which keepeth covenant and mercy unto them that love him and keep his commandments, even throughout a thousand generations;

If ye shall hearken unto these laws and shall observe and do them, then shall the LORD thy God keep covenant with thee, and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers,

Thou shalt bring to nought all nations which the LORD thy God delivereth thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them neither shalt thou serve their gods, for that shall be thy decay.

Fear them not, but remember what the LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh and unto all Egypt,

and the great temptations which thine eyes saw, and the signs and wonders and mighty hand and stretched-out arm wherewith the LORD thy God brought thee out: even so shall the LORD thy God do unto all the nations of which thou art afraid.

Thereto, the LORD thy God will send hornets among them until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be destroyed.

See thou fear them not, for the LORD thy God is among you: a mighty God and a terrible.

The LORD thy God will put out these nations before thee a little and a little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.

And the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee and stir up a mighty tempest among them, until they be brought to nought.

The images of their gods thou shalt burn with fire, and see that thou covet not the silver or gold that is on them nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therewith. For it is an abomination unto the LORD thy God.

And think on all the ways which the LORD thy God led thee this forty years in the wilderness, for to humble thee and to prove thee, to wete what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or no.

Understand, therefore, in thine heart, that as a man nurtureth his son, even so the LORD thy God nurtureth thee.

Keep, therefore, the commandments of the LORD thy God; that thou walk in his ways and that thou fear him.

For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of rivers of water, of fountains and of springs that spring out both in valleys and hills:

When thou hast eaten therefore and filled thyself, then bless the LORD for the good land which he hath given thee.

But beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, that thou wouldest not keep his commandments, laws and ordinances which I command thee this day:

and all that thou hast increased, then beware lest thine heart rise and thou forget the LORD thy God which brought thee out of the land of Egypt the house of bondage,

which fed thee in the wilderness with Manna whereof thy fathers knew not, for to humble thee and to prove thee, that he might do thee good at thy latter end.

But remember the LORD thy God, how that it is he which gave thee power to do manfully, for to make good the covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is come to pass this day.
