1 And Moses * h4872 went * h3212 h8799 and spake * h1696 h8762 these words * h1697 unto all Israel * h3478.
2 And he said * h559 h8799 unto them, I am an hundred * h3967 and twenty * h6242 years * h8141 old * h1121 this day * h3117; I can * h3201 h8799 no more go out * h3318 h8800 and come in * h935 h8800: also the LORD * h3068 hath said * h559 h8804 unto me, Thou shalt not go over * h5674 h8799 this Jordan * h3383.
3 The LORD * h3068 thy God * h430, he will go over * h5674 h8802 before * h6440 thee, and he will destroy * h8045 h8686 these nations * h1471 from before * h6440 thee, and thou shalt possess * h3423 h8804 them: and Joshua * h3091, he shall go over * h5674 h8802 before * h6440 thee, as the LORD * h3068 hath said * h1696 h8765.
4 And the LORD * h3068 shall do * h6213 h8804 unto them as he did * h6213 h8804 to Sihon * h5511 and to Og * h5747, kings * h4428 of the Amorites * h567, and unto the land * h776 of them, whom he destroyed * h8045 h8689.
5 And the LORD * h3068 shall give them up * h5414 h8804 before your face * h6440, that ye may do * h6213 h8804 unto them according unto all the commandments * h4687 which I have commanded * h6680 h8765 you.
6 Be strong * h2388 h8798 and of a good courage * h553 h8798, fear * h3372 h8799 not, nor be afraid * h6206 h8799 of them * h6440: for the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430, he it is that doth go * h1980 h8802 with thee; he will not fail * h7503 h8686 thee, nor forsake * h5800 h8799 thee.
7 And Moses * h4872 called * h7121 h8799 unto Joshua * h3091, and said * h559 h8799 unto him in the sight * h5869 of all Israel * h3478, Be strong * h2388 h8798 and of a good courage * h553 h8798: for thou must go * h935 h8799 with this people * h5971 unto the land * h776 which the LORD * h3068 hath sworn * h7650 h8738 unto their fathers * h1 to give * h5414 h8800 them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit * h5157 h8686 it.
8 And the LORD * h3068, he it is that doth go * h1980 h8802 before * h6440 thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail * h7503 h8686 thee, neither forsake * h5800 h8799 thee: fear * h3372 h8799 not, neither be dismayed * h2865 h8735.
9 And Moses * h4872 wrote * h3789 h8799 this law * h8451, and delivered * h5414 h8799 it unto the priests * h3548 the sons * h1121 of Levi * h3878, which bare * h5375 h8802 the ark * h727 of the covenant * h1285 of the LORD * h3068, and unto all the elders * h2205 of Israel * h3478.
10 And Moses * h4872 commanded * h6680 h8762 them, saying * h559 h8800, At the end * h7093 of every seven * h7651 years * h8141, in the solemnity * h4150 of the year * h8141 of release * h8059, in the feast * h2282 of tabernacles * h5521,
11 When all Israel * h3478 is come * h935 h8800 to appear * h7200 h8736 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 in the place * h4725 which he shall choose * h977 h8799, thou shalt read * h7121 h8799 this law * h8451 before all Israel * h3478 in their hearing * h241.
12 Gather * h6950 the people * h5971 together * h6950 h8685, men * h582, and women * h802, and children * h2945, and thy stranger * h1616 that is within thy gates * h8179, that they may hear * h8085 h8799, and that they may learn * h3925 h8799, and fear * h3372 h8804 the LORD * h3068 your God * h430, and observe * h8104 h8804 to do * h6213 h8800 all the words * h1697 of this law * h8451:
13 And that their children * h1121, which have not known * h3045 h8804 any thing , may hear * h8085 h8799, and learn * h3925 h8804 to fear * h3372 h8800 the LORD * h3068 your God * h430, as long as * h3117 ye live * h2416 in the land * h127 whither ye go over * h5674 h8802 Jordan * h3383 to possess * h3423 h8800 it.
14 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Behold, thy days * h3117 approach * h7126 h8804 that thou must die * h4191 h8800: call * h7121 h8798 Joshua * h3091, and present * h3320 h8690 yourselves in the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150, that I may give him a charge * h6680 h8762. And Moses * h4872 and Joshua * h3091 went * h3212 h8799, and presented * h3320 h8691 themselves in the tabernacle * h168 of the congregation * h4150.
15 And the LORD * h3068 appeared * h7200 h8735 in the tabernacle * h168 in a pillar * h5982 of a cloud * h6051: and the pillar * h5982 of the cloud * h6051 stood * h5975 h8799 over the door * h6607 of the tabernacle * h168.
16 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Behold, thou shalt sleep * h7901 h8802 with thy fathers * h1; and this people * h5971 will rise up * h6965 h8804, and go a whoring * h2181 h8804 after * h310 the gods * h430 of the strangers * h5236 of the land * h776, whither they go * h935 h8802 to be among * h7130 them, and will forsake * h5800 h8804 me, and break * h6565 h8689 my covenant * h1285 which I have made * h3772 h8804 with them. sleep: Heb. lie down
17 Then my anger * h639 shall be kindled * h2734 h8804 against them in that day * h3117, and I will forsake * h5800 h8804 them, and I will hide * h5641 h8689 my face * h6440 from them, and they shall be devoured * h398 h8800, and many * h7227 evils * h7451 and troubles * h6869 shall befall * h4672 h8804 them; so that they will say * h559 h8804 in that day * h3117, Are not these evils * h7451 come * h4672 h8804 upon us, because our God * h430 is not among * h7130 us? befall: Heb. find
18 And I will surely * h5641 h8687 hide * h5641 h8686 my face * h6440 in that day * h3117 for all the evils * h7451 which they shall have wrought * h6213 h8804, in that * h3588 they are turned * h6437 h8804 unto other * h312 gods * h430.
19 Now therefore write * h3789 h8798 ye this song * h7892 for you, and teach * h3925 h8761 it the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478: put * h7760 h8798 it in their mouths * h6310, that this song * h7892 may be a witness * h5707 for me against the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478.
20 For when I shall have brought * h935 h8686 them into the land * h127 which I sware * h7650 h8738 unto their fathers * h1, that floweth * h2100 h8802 with milk * h2461 and honey * h1706; and they shall have eaten * h398 h8804 and filled * h7646 h8804 themselves, and waxen fat * h1878 h8804; then will they turn * h6437 h8804 unto other * h312 gods * h430, and serve * h5647 h8804 them, and provoke * h5006 h8765 me, and break * h6565 h8689 my covenant * h1285.
21 And it shall come to pass, when many * h7227 evils * h7451 and troubles * h6869 are befallen * h4672 h8799 them, that this song * h7892 shall testify * h6030 h8804 against * h6440 them as a witness * h5707; for it shall not be forgotten * h7911 h8735 out of the mouths * h6310 of their seed * h2233: for I know * h3045 h8804 their imagination * h3336 which they go about * h6213 h8802, even now * h3117, before I have brought * h935 h8686 them into the land * h776 which I sware * h7650 h8738. against: Heb. before go...: Heb. do
22 Moses * h4872 therefore wrote * h3789 h8799 this song * h7892 the same day * h3117, and taught * h3925 h8762 it the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478.
23 And he gave Joshua * h3091 the son * h1121 of Nun * h5126 a charge * h6680 h8762, and said * h559 h8799, Be strong * h2388 h8798 and of a good courage * h553 h8798: for thou shalt bring * h935 h8686 the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 into the land * h776 which I sware * h7650 h8738 unto them: and I will be with thee.
24 And it came to pass, when Moses * h4872 had made an end * h3615 h8763 of writing * h3789 h8800 the words * h1697 of this law * h8451 in a book * h5612, until they were finished * h8552 h8800,
25 That Moses * h4872 commanded * h6680 h8762 the Levites * h3881, which bare * h5375 h8802 the ark * h727 of the covenant * h1285 of the LORD * h3068, saying * h559 h8800,
26 Take * h3947 h8800 this book * h5612 of the law * h8451, and put * h7760 h8804 it in the side * h6654 of the ark * h727 of the covenant * h1285 of the LORD * h3068 your God * h430, that it may be there for a witness * h5707 against thee.
27 For I know * h3045 h8804 thy rebellion * h4805, and thy stiff * h7186 neck * h6203: behold, while I am yet alive * h2416 with you this day * h3117, ye have been rebellious * h4784 h8688 against the LORD * h3068; and how much more after * h310 my death * h4194?
28 Gather * h6950 h8685 unto me all the elders * h2205 of your tribes * h7626, and your officers * h7860 h8802, that I may speak * h1696 h8762 these words * h1697 in their ears * h241, and call * h5749 heaven * h8064 and earth * h776 to record * h5749 h8686 against them.
29 For I know * h3045 h8804 that after * h310 my death * h4194 ye will utterly * h7843 h8687 corrupt * h7843 h8686 yourselves , and turn aside * h5493 h8804 from the way * h1870 which I have commanded * h6680 h8765 you; and evil * h7451 will befall * h7122 h8804 you in the latter * h319 days * h3117; because ye will do * h6213 h8799 evil * h7451 in the sight * h5869 of the LORD * h3068, to provoke him to anger * h3707 h8687 through the work * h4639 of your hands * h3027.
30 And Moses * h4872 spake * h1696 h8762 in the ears * h241 of all the congregation * h6951 of Israel * h3478 the words * h1697 of this song * h7892, until they were ended * h8552 h8800.
