1TheseH428 be the wordsH1697 whichH834 MosesH4872 spake unto allH3605 IsraelH3478 beyondH5676 JordanH3383 in the wildernessH4057, in the ArabahH6160 over againstH413 SuphH5489, betweenH996 ParanH6290, and TophelH8603, and LabanH3837, and HazerothH2698, and Di-zahab. 2It is elevenH6240 days’H3117 journeyH1870 from HorebH2722 by the wayH1870 of mountH2022 SeirH8165 unto Kadesh-barneaH6947. 3And it cameH1961 to passH1961 in the fortiethH705 yearH8141, in the eleventhH6240 monthH2320, on the firstH259 dayH2320 of the monthH2320, that MosesH4872 spake unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, accordingH413 unto allH3605 that the LORDH3068 had givenH6680 him in commandmentH6680 unto them; 4afterH310 he had smittenH5221 SihonH5511 the kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, whichH834 dweltH3427 in HeshbonH2809, and OgH5747 the kingH4428 of BashanH1316, whichH834 dweltH3427 in AshtarothH6252, at EdreiH154: 5beyondH5676 JordanH3383, in the landH776 of MoabH4124, beganH2974 MosesH4872 to declare this lawH8451, sayingH559, 6The LORDH3068 our GodH430 spake unto usH413 in HorebH2722, sayingH559, Ye have dweltH3427 longH413 enoughH7227 in this mountainH2022: 7turnH6437 youH3605, and takeH935 your journeyH5265, and goH935 to the hillH2022 countryH2022 of the AmoritesH567, and unto allH3605 the placesH3605 nigh thereunto, in the ArabahH6160, in the hillH2022 countryH2022, and in the lowlandH8219, and in the SouthH5045, and by the seaH3220 shore, the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, and LebanonH3844, as farH5704 as the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578. 8BeholdH7200, I have setH5414 the landH776 beforeH6440 youH834: goH935 in and possessH3423 the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 sware unto your fathersH1, to AbrahamH85, to IsaacH3327, and to JacobH3290, to giveH5414 unto them and to their seedH2233 afterH310 them. 9And I spake unto youH3808 at that time, sayingH559, I am notH3808 ableH3201 to bearH5375 youH3808 myselfH905 aloneH905: 10The LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath multipliedH7235 youH3117, and, beholdH2009, ye are this dayH3117 as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 for multitudeH7230. 11The LORDH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, makeH3254 youH834 a thousandH505 timesH6471 soH834 many moreH3254 as ye are, and blessH1288 youH834, as he hath promisedH1696 youH834! 12HowH349 canH349 I myselfH905 aloneH905 bearH5375 your cumbrance, and your burdenH4853, and your strifeH7379? 13TakeH7760 youH7760 wiseH2450 menH376, and understandingH995, and knownH3045, accordingH376 to your tribesH7626, and I will makeH7760 them headsH7218 over youH7760. 14And ye answeredH559 meH1696, and saidH559, The thingH1697 whichH834 thou hast spokenH1696 is goodH2896 for usH559 to doH6213. 15SoH3947 I tookH3947 the headsH7218 of your tribesH7626, wiseH2450 menH376, and knownH3045, and madeH5414 them headsH7218 over youH5414, captainsH8269 of thousandsH505, and captainsH8269 of hundredsH3967, and captainsH8269 of fiftiesH2572, and captainsH8269 of tensH6235, and officersH8269, accordingH5921 to your tribesH7626. 16And I chargedH6680 your judgesH8199 at that time, sayingH559, HearH8085 the causes betweenH996 your brethrenH251, and judgeH8199 righteouslyH6664 betweenH996 a manH376 and his brotherH251, and the strangerH1616 that is with him. 17Ye shall notH3808 respectH6440 personsH376 in judgmentH4941; ye shall hearH8085 the smallH6996 and the greatH1419 alikeH6440; ye shall notH3808 be afraidH1481 of the faceH6440 of manH376; for the judgmentH4941 is God’sH430: and the causeH4941 that is tooH4480 hardH7185 for youH834 ye shall bringH7126 unto meH413, and I will hearH8085 it. 18And I commandedH6680 youH834 at that time allH3605 the things whichH834 ye should doH6213. 19And weH834 journeyedH5265 from HorebH2722, and wentH935 throughH935 allH3605 that greatH1419 and terrible wildernessH4057 whichH834 ye sawH7200, by the wayH1870 to the hillH2022 countryH2022 of the AmoritesH567, as the LORDH3068 our GodH430 commandedH6680 usH935; and weH834 cameH935 to Kadesh-barneaH6947. 20And I saidH559 unto youH834, Ye are comeH935 unto the hillH2022 countryH2022 of the AmoritesH567, whichH834 the LORDH3068 our GodH430 giveth unto usH5414. 21BeholdH7200, the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath setH5414 the landH776 beforeH6440 thee: goH5927 upH5927, takeH3423 possessionH3423, as the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of thy fathersH1, hath spokenH1696 unto thee; fearH3372 notH408, neitherH408 be dismayedH2865. 22And ye cameH935 nearH7126 unto meH413 everyH3605 one of youH834, and saidH559, LetH7971 usH413 sendH7971 menH376 beforeH6440 usH413, that they may searchH2658 the landH776 for usH413, and bringH935 usH413 wordH1697 againH7725 of the wayH1870 by whichH834 weH834 mustH853 goH935 upH5927, and the citiesH5892 unto whichH834 weH834 shall comeH935. 23And the thingH1697 pleasedH3190 meH4480 wellH3190: and I tookH3947 twelveH6240 menH376 of youH4480, one manH376 for everyH376 tribeH7626: 24and they turnedH6437 and wentH935 upH5927 intoH935 the mountainH2022, and cameH935 unto the valleyH5158 of EshcolH812, and spiedH7270 it outH7270. 25And they tookH3947 of the fruitH6529 of the landH776 in their handsH3027, and broughtH7725 it downH3381 unto usH5414, and broughtH7725 usH5414 wordH1697 againH7725, and saidH559, It is a goodH2896 landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 our GodH430 giveth unto usH5414. 26Yet ye would notH3808 goH5927 upH5927, but rebelledH4784 againstH5927 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430: 27and ye murmured in your tentsH168, and saidH559, BecauseH559 the LORDH3068 hatedH8135 usH5414, he hath broughtH3318 usH5414 forthH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to deliverH5414 usH5414 intoH776 the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH8045 usH5414. 28Whither are weH587 goingH5927 upH5927? our brethrenH251 have madeH1571 our heartH3824 to meltH4549, sayingH559, The peopleH5971 is greaterH1419 and tallerH7311 thanH4480 weH587; the citiesH5892 are greatH1419 and fenced upH5927 to heavenH8064; and moreoverH1571 weH587 have seenH7200 the sonsH1121 of the AnakimH6062 there. 29Then I saidH559 unto youH3808, DreadH6206 notH3808, neitherH3808 be afraidH3372 of them. 30The LORDH3068 your GodH430 who goeth beforeH6440 youH834, he shall fightH3898 for youH834, according to allH3605 that he didH6213 for youH834 in EgyptH4714 beforeH6440 your eyesH5869; 31and in the wildernessH4057, whereH834 thou hast seenH7200 howH834 that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 bare thee, as a manH376 doth bearH5375 his sonH1121, in allH3605 the wayH1870 that ye wentH1980, untilH5704 ye cameH935 unto this placeH4725. 32Yet in this thingH1697 ye did notH369 believeH539 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, 33who wentH1980 beforeH6440 youH834 in the wayH1870, to seekH8446 youH834 outH6440 a placeH4725 to pitch your tents in, in fireH784 by nightH3915, to shew youH834 by whatH834 wayH1870 ye should goH1980, and in the cloudH6051 by dayH3119. 34And the LORDH3068 heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of your wordsH1697, and was wroth, and sware, sayingH559, 35SurelyH518 there shall notH2088 one of theseH428 menH376 of this evilH7451 generationH1755 seeH7200 the goodH2896 landH776, whichH834 I sware to giveH5414 unto your fathersH1, 36save CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312, he shall seeH7200 it; and to him will I giveH5414 the landH776 that he hath troddenH1869 uponH7200, and to his childrenH1121: becauseH3282 he hath whollyH5414 followedH310 the LORDH3068. 37Also the LORDH3068 was angryH599 with meH935 for your sakes, sayingH559, Thou also shalt notH3808 goH935 in thither: 38JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, whichH1931 standeth beforeH6440 thee, he shall goH935 in thither: encourageH2388 thou him; for he shall cause IsraelH3478 to inheritH5157 it. 39MoreoverH1961 your littleH2945 onesH2945, whichH834 ye saidH559 should be a preyH957, and your childrenH1121, whichH834 this dayH3117 have noH3808 knowledgeH3045 of goodH2896 or evilH7451, they shall goH935 in thither, and unto them will I giveH5414 it, and they shall possessH3423 it. 40But as for youH859, turnH6437 youH859, and takeH5265 your journeyH1870 intoH3220 the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 to the Red SeaH3220. 41Then ye answeredH559 and saidH559 unto meH413, WeH587 have sinnedH2398 againstH413 the LORDH3068, weH587 will goH5927 upH5927 and fightH3898, accordingH413 to allH3605 that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 commandedH6680 usH413. And ye girdedH2296 on everyH3605 manH376 his weaponsH3627 of warH4421, and were forward to goH5927 upH5927 intoH413 the mountainH2022. 42And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto meH413, SayH559 unto them, GoH5927 notH3808 upH5927, neitherH3808 fightH3898; for I am notH3808 among youH3588; lest ye be smitten beforeH6440 your enemiesH341. 43SoH3808 I spake unto youH3808, and ye hearkened notH3808; but ye rebelledH4784 againstH413 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and were presumptuous, and wentH5927 upH5927 intoH413 the mountainH2022. 44And the AmoritesH567, whichH834 dweltH3427 in that mountainH2022, cameH3318 outH3318 againstH7125 youH834, and chasedH7291 youH834, as beesH1682 doH6213, and beatH3807 youH834 downH3427 in SeirH8165, evenH5704 unto HormahH2767. 45And ye returnedH7725 and weptH1058 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; but the LORDH3068 hearkened notH3808 to your voiceH6963, norH3808 gaveH7725 earH238 unto youH6440. 46SoH834 ye abodeH3427 in KadeshH6946 manyH7227 daysH3117, according unto the daysH3117 that ye abodeH3427 there.
