To this very day Jehovah has not given you a heart to know, eyes to see, or ears to hear. I led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not worn out on you. Your sandal has not worn out on your foot. You have not eaten bread. You have not drunk wine or strong drink. This in order that you might know that I am Jehovah your God. When you reached this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out to meet us for battle. We defeated them! We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of the Manassites. Keep the words of this covenant to do them that you may prosper in all that you do. You stand today, all of you, before Jehovah your God: your leaders, your tribes, your elders and your officers, even all the men of Israel. Your little ones, your wives, and the alien who is within your camps, from the one who chops your wood to the one who draws your water, that you may enter into the covenant with Jehovah your God, and into His oath that Jehovah your God is making with you today. Jehovah will confirm today with this promise that you are his people and that he is your God. This is what he told you. This is what he promised your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob with an oath. You are not the only people to receive this promise and its conditions. It is for those of you who are standing here with us today in the presence of Jehovah our God and also for those who are not here today.
