These be the wordsH1697 which MosesH4872 spakeH1696 unto all IsraelH3478 on this sideH5676 JordanH3383 in the wildernessH4057, in the plainH6160 over againstH4136 the RedH5489 sea, between ParanH6290, and TophelH8603, and LabanH3837, and HazerothH2698, and DizahabH1774. {the Red…: or, Zuph}
(There are elevenH259+H6240 days'H3117 journey from HorebH2722 by the wayH1870 of mountH2022 SeirH8165 unto KadeshbarneaH6947.)
And it came to pass in the fortiethH705 yearH8141, in the eleventhH6249+H6240 monthH2320, on the firstH259 day of the monthH2320, that MosesH4872 spakeH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, according unto all that the LORDH3068 had given him in commandmentH6680 unto them;
AfterH310 he had slainH5221 SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, which dweltH3427 in HeshbonH2809, and OgH5747 the kingH4428 of BashanH1316, which dweltH3427 at AstarothH6252 in EdreiH154:
On this sideH5676 JordanH3383, in the landH776 of MoabH4124, beganH2974 MosesH4872 to declareH874 this lawH8451, sayingH559,
The LORDH3068 our GodH430 spakeH1696 unto us in HorebH2722, sayingH559, Ye have dweltH3427 long enoughH7227 in this mountH2022:
TurnH6437 you, and take your journeyH5265, and goH935 to the mountH2022 of the AmoritesH567, and unto all the places nighH7934 thereunto, in the plainH6160, in the hillsH2022, and in the valeH8219, and in the southH5045, and by the seaH3220 sideH2348, to the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, and unto LebanonH3844, unto the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578. {all…: Heb. all his neighbours}
BeholdH7200, I have setH5414 the landH776 beforeH6440 you: goH935 in and possessH3423 the landH776 which the LORDH3068 swareH7650 unto your fathersH1, AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and JacobH3290, to giveH5414 unto them and to their seedH2233 afterH310 them. {set: Heb. given}
And I spakeH559 unto you at that timeH6256, sayingH559, I am not ableH3201 to bearH5375 you myself aloneH905:
The LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath multipliedH7235 you, and, behold, ye are this dayH3117 as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 for multitudeH7230.
(The LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 make you a thousandH505 timesH6471 so many more asH3254 ye are, and blessH1288 you, as he hath promisedH1696 you!)
HowH349 can I myself alone bearH5375 your cumbranceH2960, and your burdenH4853, and your strifeH7379?
TakeH3051 you wiseH2450 menH582, and understandingH995, and knownH3045 among your tribesH7626, and I will makeH7760 them rulersH7218 over you. {Take: Heb. Give}
And ye answeredH6030 me, and saidH559, The thingH1697 which thou hast spokenH1696 is goodH2896 for us to doH6213.
So I tookH3947 the chiefH7218 of your tribesH7626, wiseH2450 menH582, and knownH3045, and madeH5414 them headsH7218 over you, captainsH8269 over thousandsH505, and captainsH8269 over hundredsH3967, and captainsH8269 over fiftiesH2572, and captainsH8269 over tensH6235, and officersH7860 among your tribesH7626. {made: Heb. gave}
And I chargedH6680 your judgesH8199 at that timeH6256, sayingH559, HearH8085 the causes between your brethrenH251, and judgeH8199 righteouslyH6664 between every manH376 and his brotherH251, and the strangerH1616 that is with him.
Ye shall not respectH5234 personsH6440 in judgmentH4941; but ye shall hearH8085 the smallH6996 as well as the greatH1419; ye shall not be afraidH1481 of the faceH6440 of manH376; for the judgmentH4941 is God'sH430: and the causeH1697 that is too hardH7185 for you, bringH7126 it unto me, and I will hearH8085 it. {respect…: Heb. acknowledge faces}
And I commandedH6680 you at that timeH6256 all the thingsH1697 which ye should doH6213.
And when we departedH5265 from HorebH2722, we went throughH3212 all that greatH1419 and terribleH3372 wildernessH4057, which ye sawH7200 by the wayH1870 of the mountainH2022 of the AmoritesH567, as the LORDH3068 our GodH430 commandedH6680 us; and we cameH935 to KadeshbarneaH6947.
And I saidH559 unto you, Ye are comeH935 unto the mountainH2022 of the AmoritesH567, which the LORDH3068 our GodH430 doth giveH5414 unto us.
BeholdH7200, the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath setH5414 the landH776 beforeH6440 thee: go upH5927 and possessH3423 it, as the LORDH3068 GodH430 of thy fathersH1 hath saidH1696 unto thee; fearH3372 not, neither be discouragedH2865.
And ye came nearH7126 unto me every one of you, and saidH559, We will sendH7971 menH582 beforeH6440 us, and they shall search us outH2658 the landH776, and bringH7725 us wordH1697 againH7725 by what wayH1870 we must go upH5927, and into what citiesH5892 we shall comeH935.
And the sayingH1697 pleased me wellH3190+H5869: and I tookH3947 twelveH8147+H6240 menH582 of you, oneH259 of a tribeH376+H7626:
And they turnedH6437 and went upH5927 into the mountainH2022, and cameH935 unto the valleyH5158 of EshcolH812, and searched it outH7270.
And they tookH3947 of the fruitH6529 of the landH776 in their handsH3027, and brought it downH3381 unto us, and broughtH7725 us wordH1697 againH7725, and saidH559, It is a goodH2896 landH776 which the LORDH3068 our GodH430 doth giveH5414 us.
Notwithstanding ye wouldH14 not go upH5927, but rebelledH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430:
And ye murmuredH7279 in your tentsH168, and saidH559, Because the LORDH3068 hatedH8135 us, he hath brought us forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to deliverH5414 us into the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH8045 us.
Whither shall we go upH5927? our brethrenH251 have discouragedH4549 our heartH3824, sayingH559, The peopleH5971 is greaterH1419 and tallerH7311 than we; the citiesH5892 are greatH1419 and walled upH1219 to heavenH8064; and moreover we have seenH7200 the sonsH1121 of the AnakimsH6062 there. {discouraged: Heb. melted}
Then I saidH559 unto you, DreadH6206 not, neither be afraidH3372 of them.
The LORDH3068 your GodH430 which goethH1980 beforeH6440 you, he shall fightH3898 for you, according to all that he didH6213 for you in EgyptH4714 before your eyesH5869;
And in the wildernessH4057, where thou hast seenH7200 how that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 bareH5375 thee, as a manH376 doth bearH5375 his sonH1121, in all the wayH1870 that ye wentH1980, until ye cameH935 into this placeH4725.
Yet in this thingH1697 ye did not believeH539 the LORDH3068 your GodH430,
Who wentH1980 in the wayH1870 beforeH6440 you, to search you outH8446 a placeH4725 to pitch your tentsH2583 in, in fireH784 by nightH3915, to shewH7200 you by what wayH1870 ye should goH3212, and in a cloudH6051 by dayH3119.
And the LORDH3068 heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of your wordsH1697, and was wrothH7107, and swareH7650, sayingH559,
Surely there shall not oneH376 of these menH582 of this evilH7451 generationH1755 seeH7200 that goodH2896 landH776, which I swareH7650 to giveH5414 unto your fathersH1,
SaveH2108 CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312; he shall seeH7200 it, and to him will I giveH5414 the landH776 thatH834 he hath trodden uponH1869, and to his childrenH1121, because he hath whollyH4390 followedH310 the LORDH3068. {wholly…: Heb. fulfilled to go after}
Also the LORDH3068 was angryH599 with me for your sakesH1558, sayingH559, Thou also shalt not goH935 in thitherH8033.
But JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, which standethH5975 beforeH6440 thee, he shall go inH935 thither: encourageH2388 him: for he shall cause IsraelH3478 to inheritH5157 it.
Moreover your little onesH2945, which ye saidH559 should be a preyH957, and your childrenH1121, which in that dayH3117 had no knowledgeH3045 between goodH2896 and evilH7451, they shall go inH935 thither, and unto them will I giveH5414 it, and they shall possessH3423 it.
But as for you, turnH6437 you, and take your journeyH5265 into the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 of the RedH5488 seaH3220.
Then ye answeredH6030 and saidH559 unto me, We have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068, we will go upH5927 and fightH3898, according to all that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 commandedH6680 us. And when ye had girdedH2296 on every manH376 his weaponsH3627 of warH4421, ye were readyH1951 to go upH5927 into the hillH2022.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 unto them, Go not upH5927, neither fightH3898; for I am not amongH7130 you; lest ye be smittenH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341.
So I spakeH1696 unto you; and ye would not hearH8085, but rebelledH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and wentH5927 presumptuouslyH2102 upH5927 into the hillH2022. {went…: Heb. ye were presumptuous, and went up}
And the AmoritesH567, which dweltH3427 in that mountainH2022, came outH3318 againstH7125 you, and chasedH7291 you, as beesH1682 doH6213, and destroyedH3807 you in SeirH8165, even unto HormahH2767.
And ye returnedH7725 and weptH1058 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; but the LORDH3068 would not hearkenH8085 to your voiceH6963, nor give earH238 unto you.
So ye abodeH3427 in KadeshH6946 manyH7227 daysH3117, according unto the daysH3117 that ye abodeH3427 there.

And wherefore hath the LORDH3068 broughtH935 us unto this landH776, to fallH5307 by the swordH2719, that our wivesH802 and our childrenH2945 should be a preyH957? were it not betterH2896 for us to returnH7725 into EgyptH4714?
