TheseH428 are the wordsH1697 of the covenant,H1285 which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872 to makeH3772 with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in the landH776 of Moab,H4124 besideH905 the covenantH1285 whichH834 he madeH3772 with them in Horeb.H2722
2
And MosesH4872 calledH7121 to allH3605 Israel,H3478 and saidH559 to them, You have seenH7200 allH3605 that the LORDH3068 didH6213 before your eyesH5869 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 to Pharaoh,H6547 and to allH3605 his servants,H5650 and to allH3605 his land;H776
3
The greatH1419 temptationsH4531 whichH834 your eyesH5869 have seen,H7200 the signs,H226 and thoseH1992 greatH1419 miracles:H4159
4
Yet the LORDH3068 has not givenH5414 you an heartH3820 to perceive,H3045 and eyesH5869 to see,H7200 and earsH241 to hear,H8085 to thisH2088 day.H3117
5
And I have ledH3212 you fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wilderness:H4057 your clothesH8008 are not waxen oldH1086 on you, and your shoeH5275 is not waxen oldH1086 on your foot.H7272
6
You have not eatenH398 bread,H3899 neitherH3808 have you drunkH8354 wineH3196 or strong drink:H7941 that you might knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 your God.H430
7
And when you cameH935 to thisH2088 place,H4725 SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of Heshbon,H2809 and OgH5747 the kingH4428 of Bashan,H1316 cameH3318 out againstH7125 us to battle,H4421 and we smoteH5221 them:
8
And we tookH3947 their land,H776 and gaveH5414 it for an inheritanceH5159 to the Reubenites,H7206 and to the Gadites,H1425 and to the halfH2677 tribeH7626 of Manasseh.H4520
9
KeepH8104 therefore the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 covenant,H1285 and doH6213 them, that you may prosperH7919 in allH3605 that you do.H6213
10
You standH5324 this dayH3117 allH3605 of you beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your God;H430 your captainsH7218 of your tribes,H7626 your elders,H2205 and your officers,H7860 with allH3605 the menH376 of Israel,H3478
11
Your littleH2945 ones, your wives,H802 and your strangerH1616 that is in your camp,H4264 from the hewerH2404 of your woodH6086 to the drawerH7579 of your water:H4325
12
That you should enterH5674 into covenantH1285 with the LORDH3068 your God,H430 and into his oath,H423 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 makesH3772 with you this day:H3117
13
That he may establishH6965 you to dayH3117 for a peopleH5971 to himself, and that he may be to you a God,H430 as he has saidH1696 to you, and as he has swornH7650 to your fathers,H1 to Abraham,H85 to Isaac,H3327 and to Jacob.H3290
14
NeitherH3808 with you onlyH905 do I makeH3772 thisH2063 covenantH1285 and thisH2063 oath;H423
15
But with him that standsH5975 hereH6311 with us this dayH3117 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our God,H430 and also with him that is not hereH6311 with us this day:H3117
16
(For you knowH3045 howH834 we have dwelledH3427 in the landH776 of Egypt;H4714 and howH834 we cameH5674 throughH7130 the nationsH1471 whichH834 you passedH5674 by;
17
And you have seenH7200 their abominations,H8251 and their idols,H1544 woodH6086 and stone,H68 silverH3701 and gold,H2091 whichH834 were among them:)
18
LestH6435 there should be among you man,H376 orH176 woman,H802 orH176 family,H4940 orH176 tribe,H7626 whoseH834 heartH3824 turnsH6437 away this dayH3117 from the LORDH3068 our God,H430 to goH3212 and serveH5647 the godsH430 of theseH1992 nations;H1471 lestH6435 there should be among you a rootH8328 that bearsH6509 gallH7219 and wormwood;H3939
19
And it comeH1961 to pass, when he hearsH8085 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 curse,H423 that he blessH1288 himself in his heart,H3824 saying,H559 I shall have peace,H7965 thoughH3588 I walkH3212 in the imaginationH8307 of my heart,H3820 to addH5595 drunkennessH7302 to thirst:H6771
20
The LORDH3068 will not spareH5545 him, but thenH227 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 and his jealousyH7068 shall smokeH6225 against that man,H376 and allH3605 the cursesH423 that are writtenH3789 in thisH2088 bookH5612 shall lieH7257 on him, and the LORDH3068 shall blotH4229 out his nameH8034 from underH8478 heaven.H8064
21
And the LORDH3068 shall separateH914 him to evilH7451 out of allH3605 the tribesH7626 of Israel,H3478 according to allH3605 the cursesH423 of the covenantH1285 that are writtenH3789 in thisH2088 bookH5612 of the law:H8451
22
So that the generationH1755 to comeH314 of your childrenH1121 that shall riseH6965 up afterH310 you, and the strangerH5237 that shall comeH935 from a farH7350 land,H776 shall say,H559 when they seeH7200 the plaguesH4347 of that land,H776 and the sicknessesH8463 whichH834 the LORDH3068 has laidH2470 on it;
23
And that the wholeH3605 landH776 thereof is brimstone,H1614 and salt,H4417 and burning,H8316 that it is not sown,H2232 norH3808 bears,H6779 norH3808 anyH3605 grassH6212 growsH5927 therein, like the overthrowH4114 of Sodom,H5467 and Gomorrah,H6017 Admah,H126 and Zeboim,H6636 whichH834 the LORDH3068 overthrewH2015 in his anger,H639 and in his wrath:H2534
24
Even allH3605 nationsH1471 shall say,H559 WhyH5921 H4100 has the LORDH3068 doneH6213 thusH3660 to thisH2063 land?H776 whatH4100 means the heatH2750 of thisH2088 greatH1419 anger?H639
25
Then men shall say,H559 BecauseH5921 H834 they have forsakenH5800 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathers,H1 whichH834 he madeH3772 with them when he broughtH3318 them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of Egypt:H4714
26
For they wentH3212 and servedH5647 otherH312 gods,H430 and worshippedH7812 them, godsH430 whomH834 they knewH3045 not, and whomH834 he had not givenH2505 to them:
27
And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against thisH1931 land,H776 to bringH935 on it allH3605 the cursesH7045 that are writtenH3789 in thisH2088 book:H5612
28
And the LORDH3068 rootedH5428 them out of their landH127 in anger,H639 and in wrath,H2534 and in greatH1419 indignation,H7110 and castH7993 them intoH413 anotherH312 land,H776 as it is thisH2088 day.H3117
29
The secretH5641 things belong to the LORDH3068 our God:H430 but those things which are revealedH1540 belong to us and to our childrenH1121 for ever,H5769 that we may doH6213 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 law.H8451
