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.
Querverweise zu 5. Mose 4,26 5Mo 4,26
I denounceH5046 unto you this dayH3117, that ye shall surelyH6 perishH6, and that ye shall not prolongH748 your daysH3117 upon the landH127, whither thou passest overH5674 JordanH3383 to goH935 to possessH3423 it.
And the LORDH3068 rootedH5428 them out of their landH127 in angerH639, and in wrathH2534, and in greatH1419 indignationH7110, and castH7993 them into anotherH312 landH776, as it is this dayH3117.
I callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to recordH5749 this dayH3117 against you, that I have setH5414 beforeH6440 you lifeH2416 and deathH4194, blessingH1293 and cursingH7045: therefore chooseH977 lifeH2416, that both thou and thy seedH2233 may liveH2421:
That the landH776 spue not you outH6958 also, when ye defileH2930 it, as it spued outH6958 the nationsH1471 that were beforeH6440 you.
GatherH6950 unto me all the eldersH2205 of your tribesH7626, and your officersH7860, that I may speakH1696 these wordsH1697 in their earsH241, and callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to recordH5749 against them.
And I will makeH5414 your citiesH5892 wasteH2723, and bringH8074 your sanctuariesH4720 unto desolationH8074, and I will not smellH7306 the savourH7381 of your sweet odoursH5207.
And I will bringH8074 the landH776 into desolationH8074: and your enemiesH341 which dwellH3427 therein shall be astonishedH8074 at it.
And I will scatterH2219 you among the heathenH1471, and will draw outH7324 a swordH2719 afterH310 you: and your landH776 shall be desolateH8077, and your citiesH5892 wasteH2723.
Then shall the landH776 enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676, as longH3117 as it lieth desolateH8074, and ye be in your enemies'H341 landH776; even then shall the landH776 restH7673, and enjoyH7521 her sabbathsH7676.
As long asH3117 it lieth desolateH8074 it shall restH7673; because it did not restH7673 in your sabbathsH7676, when ye dweltH3427 upon it.
Give earH238, O ye heavensH8064, and I will speakH1696; and hearH8085, O earthH776, the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310.
When ye have transgressedH5674 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which he commandedH6680 you, and have goneH1980 and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and bowedH7812 yourselves to them; then shall the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 be kindledH2734 against you, and ye shall perishH6 quicklyH4120 from off the goodH2896 landH776 which he hath givenH5414 unto you.
HearH8085, O heavensH8064, and give earH238, O earthH776: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696, I have nourishedH1431 and brought upH7311 childrenH1121, and they have rebelledH6586 against me.
Then saidH559 I, LordH136, how long? And he answeredH559, Until the citiesH5892 be wastedH7582 without inhabitantH3427, and the housesH1004 without manH120, and the landH127 be utterlyH8077 desolateH7582, {utterly…: Heb. desolate with desolation}
Be astonishedH8074, O ye heavensH8064, at this, and be horribly afraidH8175, be ye veryH3966 desolateH2717, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Behold, the LORDH3068 maketh the earthH776 emptyH1238, and maketh it wasteH1110, and turnethH5753 it upside downH6440, and scattereth abroadH6327 the inhabitantsH3427 thereof. {turneth…: Heb. perverteth the face thereof}
And it shall be, as with the peopleH5971, so with the priestH3548; as with the servantH5650, so with his masterH113; as with the maidH8198, so with her mistressH1404; as with the buyerH7069, so with the sellerH4376; as with the lenderH3867, so with the borrowerH3867; as with the taker of usuryH5383, soH834 with the giver of usuryH5378 to him. {priest: or, prince}
The landH776 shall be utterlyH1238 emptiedH1238, and utterlyH962 spoiledH962: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 this wordH1697.
HearH8085, O earthH776: behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, even the fruitH6529 of their thoughtsH4284, because they have not hearkenedH7181 unto my wordsH1697, nor to my lawH8451, but rejectedH3988 it.
So that the LORDH3068 couldH3201 no longer bearH5375, becauseH6440 of the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611, and becauseH6440 of the abominationsH8441 which ye have committedH6213; therefore is your landH776 a desolationH2723, and an astonishmentH8047, and a curseH7045, without an inhabitantH3427, as at this dayH3117.
For I will layH5414 the landH776 mostH4923 desolateH8077, and the pompH1347 of her strengthH5797 shall ceaseH7673; and the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478 shall be desolateH8074, that none shall pass throughH5674. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
Therefore, ye mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GODH3069; Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 to the mountainsH2022, and to the hillsH1389, to the riversH650, and to the valleysH1516, to the desolateH8074 wastesH2723, and to the citiesH5892 that are forsakenH5800, which became a preyH957 and derisionH3933 to the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471 that are round aboutH5439; {rivers: or, bottoms, or, dales}
AndG2532 they shall fallG4098 by the edgeG4750 of the swordG3162, andG2532 shall be led away captiveG163 intoG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484: andG2532 JerusalemG2419 shall beG2071 trodden downG3961 ofG5259 the GentilesG1484, untilG891 the timesG2540 of the GentilesG1484 be fulfilledG4137.
