Now therefore hearkenH8085, O IsraelH3478, unto the statutesH2706 and unto the judgmentsH4941, which I teachH3925 you, for to doH6213 them, that ye may liveH2421, and go inH935 and possessH3423 the landH776 which the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 givethH5414 you.
Ye shall not addH3254 unto the wordH1697 which I commandH6680 you, neither shall ye diminishH1639 ought from it, that ye may keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 which I commandH6680 you.
Your eyesH5869 have seenH7200 what the LORDH3068 didH6213 because of BaalpeorH1187: for all the menH376 that followedH310+H1980 BaalpeorH1187, the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath destroyedH8045 them from amongH7130 you.
But ye that did cleaveH1695 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430 are aliveH2416 every one of you this dayH3117.
BeholdH7200, I have taughtH3925 you statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941, even asH834 the LORDH3068 my GodH430 commandedH6680 me, that ye should doH6213 so inH7130 the landH776 whither ye goH935 to possessH3423 it.
KeepH8104 therefore and doH6213 them; for this is your wisdomH2451 and your understandingH998 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH5971, which shall hearH8085 all these statutesH2706, and sayH559, Surely this greatH1419 nationH1471 is a wiseH2450 and understandingH995 peopleH5971.
For what nationH1471 is there so greatH1419, who hath GodH430 so nighH7138 unto them, as the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is in all things that we callH7121 upon him for?
And what nationH1471 is there so greatH1419, that hath statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941 so righteousH6662 as all this lawH8451, which I setH5414 beforeH6440 you this dayH3117?
Only take heedH8104 to thyself, and keepH8104 thy soulH5315 diligentlyH3966, lest thou forgetH7911 the thingsH1697 which thine eyesH5869 have seenH7200, and lest they departH5493 from thy heartH3824 all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH2416: but teachH3045 them thy sonsH1121, and thy sons'H1121 sonsH1121;
Specially the dayH3117 that thou stoodestH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, GatherH6950 me the peopleH5971 togetherH6950, and I will make them hearH8085 my wordsH1697, that they may learnH3925 to fearH3372 me all the daysH3117 that they shall liveH2416 upon the earthH127, and that they may teachH3925 their childrenH1121.
And ye came nearH7126 and stoodH5975 under the mountainH2022; and the mountainH2022 burnedH1197 with fireH784 unto the midstH3820 of heavenH8064, with darknessH6205, cloudsH6051, and thick darknessH2822. {midst: Heb. heart}
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto you out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784: ye heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697, but sawH7200 no similitudeH8544; onlyH2108 ye heard a voiceH6963. {only…: Heb. save a voice}
And he declaredH5046 unto you his covenantH1285, which he commandedH6680 you to performH6213, even tenH6235 commandmentsH1697; and he wroteH3789 them upon twoH8147 tablesH3871 of stoneH68.
And the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 me at that timeH6256 to teachH3925 you statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941, that ye might doH6213 them in the landH776 whither ye go overH5674 to possessH3423 it.
Take ye therefore goodH3966 heedH8104 unto yourselvesH5315; for ye sawH7200 no manner of similitudeH8544 on the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto you in HorebH2722 out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784:
Lest ye corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 you a graven imageH6459, the similitudeH8544 of any figureH5566, the likenessH8403 of maleH2145 or femaleH5347,
The likenessH8403 of any beastH929 that is on the earthH776, the likenessH8403 of any wingedH3671 fowlH6833 that fliethH5774 in the airH8064,
The likenessH8403 of any thing that creepethH7430 on the groundH127, the likenessH8403 of any fishH1710 that is in the watersH4325 beneathH8478 the earthH776:
And lest thou lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 unto heavenH8064, and when thou seestH7200 the sunH8121, and the moonH3394, and the starsH3556, even all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, shouldest be drivenH5080 to worshipH7812 them, and serveH5647 them, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath dividedH2505 unto all nationsH5971 under the whole heavenH8064. {divided: or, imparted}
But the LORDH3068 hath takenH3947 you, and brought you forthH3318 out of the ironH1270 furnaceH3564, even out of EgyptH4714, to be unto him a peopleH5971 of inheritanceH5159, as ye are this dayH3117.
Furthermore the LORDH3068 was angryH599 with me for your sakesH1697, and swareH7650 that I should not go overH5674 JordanH3383, and that I should not goH935 in unto that goodH2896 landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159:
But I must dieH4191 in this landH776, I must not go overH5674 JordanH3383: but ye shall go overH5674, and possessH3423 that goodH2896 landH776.
Take heedH8104 unto yourselves, lest ye forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which he madeH3772 with you, and makeH6213 you a graven imageH6459, or the likenessH8544 of anyH3605 thing, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath forbiddenH6680 thee.
For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a consumingH398 fireH784, even a jealousH7067 GodH410.
When thou shalt begetH3205 childrenH1121, and children'sH1121 childrenH1121, and ye shall have remained longH3462 in the landH776, and shall corruptH7843 yourselves, and makeH6213 a graven imageH6459, or the likenessH8544 of any thing, and shall doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to provoke him to angerH3707:
I callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to witnessH5749 against you this dayH3117, that ye shall soonH4118 utterlyH6 perishH6 from off the landH776 whereunto ye go overH5674 JordanH3383 to possessH3423 it; ye shall not prolongH748 your daysH3117 upon it, but shall utterlyH8045 be destroyedH8045.
And the LORDH3068 shall scatterH6327 you among the nationsH5971, and ye shall be leftH7604 fewH4962 in numberH4557 among the heathenH1471, whither the LORDH3068 shall leadH5090 you.
And there ye shall serveH5647 godsH430, the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027, woodH6086 and stoneH68, which neither seeH7200, nor hearH8085, nor eatH398, nor smellH7306.
But if from thence thou shalt seekH1245 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, thou shalt findH4672 him, if thou seekH1875 him with all thy heartH3824 and with all thy soulH5315.
When thou art in tribulationH6862, and all these thingsH1697 are comeH4672 upon thee, even in the latterH319 daysH3117, if thou turnH7725 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and shalt be obedientH8085 unto his voiceH6963; {are…: Heb. have found thee}
(For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a mercifulH7349 GodH410;) he will not forsakeH7503 thee, neither destroyH7843 thee, nor forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of thy fathersH1 which he swareH7650 unto them.
For askH7592 now of the daysH3117 that are pastH7223, which wereH1961 beforeH6440 thee, since the dayH3117 that GodH430 createdH1254 manH120 upon the earthH776, and ask from the one sideH7097 of heavenH8064 unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this greatH1419 thingH1697 is, or hath been heardH8085 like it?
Did ever peopleH5971 hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of GodH430 speaking outH1696 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784, as thou hast heardH8085, and liveH2421?
Or hath GodH430 assayedH5254 to goH935 and takeH3947 him a nationH1471 from the midstH7130 of another nationH1471, by temptationsH4531, by signsH226, and by wondersH4159, and by warH4421, and by a mightyH2389 handH3027, and by a stretched outH5186 armH2220, and by greatH1419 terrorsH4172, according to all that the LORDH3068 your GodH430 didH6213 for you in EgyptH4714 before your eyesH5869?
Unto thee it was shewedH7200, that thou mightest knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430; there is none elseH5750 beside himH905.
Out of heavenH8064 he made thee to hearH8085 his voiceH6963, that he might instructH3256 thee: and upon earthH776 he shewedH7200 thee his greatH1419 fireH784; and thou heardestH8085 his wordsH1697 out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784.
And because he lovedH157 thy fathersH1, therefore he choseH977 their seedH2233 afterH310 them, and brought thee outH3318 in his sightH6440 with his mightyH1419 powerH3581 out of EgyptH4714;
To drive outH3423 nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 thee greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 than thou art, to bringH935 thee in, to giveH5414 thee their landH776 for an inheritanceH5159, as it is this dayH3117.
KnowH3045 therefore this dayH3117, and considerH7725 it in thine heartH3824, that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, and upon the earthH776 beneath: there is none else.
Thou shalt keepH8104 therefore his statutesH2706, and his commandmentsH4687, which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, that it may go wellH3190 with thee, and with thy childrenH1121 afterH310 thee, and that thou mayest prolongH748 thy daysH3117 upon the earthH127, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, for ever.
Then MosesH4872 severedH914 threeH7969 citiesH5892 on this sideH5676 JordanH3383 toward the sunrisingH8121+H4217;
That the slayerH7523 might fleeH5127 thither, which should killH7523 his neighbourH7453 unawaresH1097+H1847, and hatedH8130 him not in timesH8543 pastH8032; and that fleeingH5127 unto oneH259 of theseH411 citiesH5892 he might liveH2425:
Namely, BezerH1221 in the wildernessH4057, in the plainH4334 countryH776, of the ReubenitesH7206; and RamothH7216 in GileadH1568, of the GaditesH1425; and GolanH1474 in BashanH1316, of the ManassitesH4520.
And this is the lawH8451 which MosesH4872 setH7760 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478:
These are the testimoniesH5713, and the statutesH2706, and the judgmentsH4941, which MosesH4872 spakeH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, after they came forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714,
On this sideH5676 JordanH3383, in the valleyH1516 over againstH4136 BethpeorH1047, in the landH776 of SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, who dweltH3427 at HeshbonH2809, whom MosesH4872 and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 smoteH5221, after they were come forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714:
And they possessedH3423 his landH776, and the landH776 of OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316, twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, which were on this sideH5676 JordanH3383 toward the sunrisingH4217+H8121;
From AroerH6177, which is by the bankH8193 of the riverH5158 ArnonH769, even unto mountH2022 SionH7865, which is HermonH2768,
And all the plainH6160 on this sideH5676 JordanH3383 eastwardH4217, even unto the seaH3220 of the plainH6160, under the springsH794 of PisgahH6449.

What thingH1697 soever I commandH6680 you, observeH8104 to doH6213 it: thou shalt not addH3254 thereto, nor diminishH1639 from it.
Only be thou strongH2388 and veryH3966 courageousH553, that thou mayest observeH8104 to doH6213 according to all the lawH8451, which MosesH4872 my servantH5650 commandedH6680 thee: turnH5493 not from it to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040, that thou mayest prosperH7919 whithersoever thou goestH3212. {prosper: or, do wisely}
Let us hearH8085 the conclusionH5490 of the whole matterH1697: FearH3372 GodH430, and keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687: for this is the whole duty of manH120. {Let…: or, The end of the matter, even all that hath been heard, is}
ForG1063 verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, TillG2193+G302 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093 passG3928, oneG1520 jotG2503 orG2228 oneG3391 tittleG2762 shall in no wiseG3364 passG3928 fromG575 the lawG3551, tillG2193+G302 allG3956 be fulfilledG1096.
Ye have heardG191 thatG3754 it hath been saidG4483, Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4675 neighbourG4139, andG2532 hateG3404 thineG4675 enemyG2190.
WhyG1302 do thyG4675 disciplesG3101 transgressG3845 the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245? forG1063 they washG3538 notG3756 theirG846 handsG5495 whenG3752 they eatG2068 breadG740.
ButG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, WhyG1302 do yeG5210 alsoG2532 transgressG3845 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316 byG1223 yourG5216 traditionG3862?
ForG1063 GodG2316 commandedG1781, sayingG3004, HonourG5091 thyG4675 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384: andG2532, He that cursethG2551 fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384, let him dieG5053 the deathG2288.
ButG1161 yeG5210 sayG3004, WhosoeverG3739+G302 shall sayG2036 to his fatherG3962 orG2228 his motherG3384, It is a giftG1435, byG1537 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 thou mightest be profitedG5623 by meG1700;
AndG2532 honourG5091 notG3364 hisG846 fatherG3962 orG2228 hisG846 motherG3384, he shall be free. ThusG2532 have ye madeG208 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316 of none effectG208 byG1223 yourG5216 traditionG3862.
Ye hypocritesG5273, wellG2573 didG4395 EsaiasG2268 prophesyG4395 ofG4012 youG5216, sayingG3004,
ThisG3778 peopleG2992 draweth nighG1448 unto meG3427 with theirG846 mouthG4750, andG2532 honourethG5091 meG3165 with their lipsG5491; butG1161 theirG846 heartG2588 isG568 farG4206 fromG575 meG1700.
ButG1161 in vainG3155 they do worshipG4576 meG3165, teachingG1321 for doctrinesG1319 the commandmentsG1778 of menG444.
ThenG2532 came togetherG4863 untoG4314 himG846 the PhariseesG5330, andG2532 certainG5100 of the scribesG1122, which cameG2064 fromG575 JerusalemG2414.
AndG2532 when they sawG1492 someG5100 of hisG846 disciplesG3101 eatG2068 breadG740 with defiledG2839, that is to sayG5123, with unwashenG449, handsG5495, they found faultG3201. {defiled: or, common}
ForG1063 the PhariseesG5330, andG2532 allG3956 the JewsG2453, exceptG3362 they washG3538 their handsG5495 oftG4435, eatG2068 notG3756, holdingG2902 the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245. {oft: or, diligently: in the original, with the fist: Theophylact, up to the elbow}
AndG2532 when they come fromG575 the marketG58, exceptG3362 they washG907, they eatG2068 notG3756. AndG2532 manyG4183 other thingsG243 there beG2076, whichG3739 they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, as the washingG909 of cupsG4221, andG2532 potsG3582+G2532, brasen vesselsG5473, andG2532 of tablesG2825. {pots: sextarius is about a pint and an half} {tables: or, beds}
ThenG1899 the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 scribesG1122 askedG1905 himG846, WhyG1302 walkG4043 notG3756 thyG4675 disciplesG3101 accordingG2596 to the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245, butG235 eatG2068 breadG740 with unwashenG449 handsG5495?
He answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036 unto themG846+G3754, WellG2573 hath EsaiasG2268 prophesiedG4395 ofG4012 youG5216 hypocritesG5273, asG5613 it is writtenG1125, ThisG3778 peopleG2992 honourethG5091 meG3165 with their lipsG5491, butG1161 theirG846 heartG2588 isG568 farG4206 fromG575 meG1700.
HowbeitG1161 in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 meG3165, teachingG1321 for doctrinesG1319 the commandmentsG1778 of menG444.
ForG1063 laying asideG863 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, ye holdG2902 the traditionG3862 of menG444, as the washingG909 of potsG3582 andG2532 cupsG4221: andG2532 manyG4183 otherG243 suchG5108 like thingsG3946 ye doG4160.
AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, Full wellG2573 ye rejectG114 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, thatG2443 ye may keepG5083 your ownG5216 traditionG3862. {reject: or, frustrate}
ForG1063 MosesG3475 saidG2036, HonourG5091 thyG4675 fatherG3962 andG2532 thyG4675 motherG3384; andG2532, Whoso cursethG2551 fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384, let him dieG5053 the deathG2288:
ButG1161 yeG5210 sayG3004, IfG1437 a manG444 shall sayG2036 to his fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384, It is CorbanG2878, that is to sayG3603, a giftG1435, byG1537 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 thou mightest be profited byG5623 meG1700; he shall be free.
AndG2532 ye sufferG863 himG846 no moreG3765 to doG4160 oughtG3762 for hisG846 fatherG3962 orG2228 hisG846 motherG3384;
MakingG208 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 of none effectG208 through yourG5216 traditionG3862, whichG3739 ye have deliveredG3860: andG2532 manyG4183 suchG5108 like thingsG3946 do yeG4160.
BrethrenG80, I speakG3004 after the manner ofG2596 menG444; Though it be butG3676 a man'sG444 covenantG1242, yet if it be confirmedG2964, no manG3762 disannullethG114, orG2228 addeth theretoG1928. {covenant: or, testament}
ForG1063 I testifyG4828 unto every manG3956 that hearethG191 the wordsG3056 of the prophecyG4394 of thisG5127 bookG975, IfG1437 any manG5100 shall addG2007 untoG4314 these thingsG5023, GodG2316 shall addG2007 untoG1909 himG846 the plaguesG4127 that are writtenG1125 inG1722 thisG5129 bookG975:
AndG2532 ifG1437 any manG5100 shall take awayG851 fromG575 the wordsG3056 of the bookG976 of thisG5129 prophecyG4394, GodG2316 shall take awayG851 hisG846 partG3313 out ofG575 the bookG976 of lifeG2222, andG2532 out ofG1537 the holyG40 cityG4172, andG2532 from the things which are writtenG1125 inG1722 thisG5026 bookG975. {out of the book…: or, from the tree of life}
