Deuteronomy 4:29-49

29But ifH3588 from thence ye shall seekH1245 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, thou shalt findH4672 him, ifH3588 thou searchH1245 afterH3588 him with allH3605 thy heartH3824 and with allH3605 thy soulH5315. 30When thou art in tribulation, and allH3605 theseH428 things are comeH7725 upon thee, in the latterH319 daysH3117 thou shalt returnH7725 to the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and hearken unto his voiceH6963: 31for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is a mercifulH7349 GodH430; he will notH3808 failH7503 thee, neitherH3808 destroyH7843 thee, norH3808 forgetH7911 the covenantH1285 of thy fathersH1 whichH834 he sware unto them. 32For askH7592 nowH4994 of the daysH3117 that are pastH7223, whichH834 were beforeH6440 thee, sinceH3588 the dayH3117 that GodH430 createdH1254 manH120 uponH5921 the earthH776, and from the one endH7097 of heavenH8064 unto the otherH2088, whetherH176 there hath been anyH4480 suchH2088 thingH1697 as this greatH1419 thingH1697 is, or hath been heardH8085 like it? 33DidH834 ever peopleH5971 hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of GodH430 speakingH1696 outH784 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784, as thou hast heardH8085, and liveH2421? 34Or hath GodH430 assayed to goH935 and takeH3947 him a nationH1471 from the midstH7130 of another nationH1471, by temptations, by signsH226, and by wondersH4159, and by warH4421, and by a mightyH2389 handH3027, and by a stretchedH5186 outH5186 armH2220, and by greatH1419 terrorsH4172, accordingH3027 to allH3605 that the LORDH3068 your GodH430 didH6213 for youH834 in EgyptH4714 beforeH5869 your eyesH5869? 35Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430; there is noneH369 elseH5750 beside him. 36OutH4480 of heavenH8064 he madeH8085 thee to hearH8085 his voiceH6963, that he might instruct thee: and uponH5921 earthH776 he madeH8085 thee to seeH7200 his greatH1419 fireH784; and thou heardest his wordsH1697 outH4480 of the midstH8432 of the fireH784. 37And becauseH3588 he lovedH157 thy fathersH1, therefore he choseH977 their seedH2233 afterH310 them, and broughtH3318 thee outH3318 with his presenceH6440, with his greatH1419 powerH3581, outH3318 of EgyptH4714; 38to driveH3423 outH4480 nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 thee greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 thanH4480 thou, to bringH935 thee in, to giveH5414 thee their landH776 for an inheritanceH5159, as at this dayH3117. 39KnowH3045 therefore this dayH3117, and lay it to thine heartH3824, that the LORDH3068 he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH5921 and uponH5921 the earthH776 beneathH8478: there is noneH369 elseH5750. 40And thou shalt keepH8104 his statutesH2706, and his commandmentsH4687, whichH834 I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, that it may goH3190 wellH3190 with thee, and with thy childrenH1121 afterH310 thee, and that thou mayest prolongH748 thy daysH3117 uponH5921 the landH127, whichH834 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 giveth thee, for ever. 41Then MosesH4872 separatedH914 threeH7969 citiesH5892 beyondH5676 JordanH3383 toward the sunrisingH4217; 42that the manslayerH7523 might fleeH5127 thither, whichH834 slayeth his neighbour unawares, and hatedH8130 him notH3808 in time pastH8543; and that fleeingH5127 unto one of theseH411 citiesH5892 he might live: 43namely, BezerH1221 in the wildernessH4057, in the plainH4334 countryH776, for the ReubenitesH7206; and RamothH7216 in GileadH1568, for the GaditesH1425; and GolanH1474 in BashanH1316, for the ManassitesH4520. 44And this is the lawH8451 whichH834 MosesH4872 setH7760 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: 45theseH428 are the testimonies, and the statutesH2706, and the judgmentsH4941, whichH834 MosesH4872 spake unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they cameH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of EgyptH4714; 46beyondH5676 JordanH3383, in the valleyH1516 over againstH4714 Beth-peorH1047, in the landH776 of SihonH5511 kingH4428 of the AmoritesH567, who dweltH3427 at HeshbonH2809, whomH834 MosesH4872 and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 smoteH5221, when they cameH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of EgyptH4714: 47and they tookH3423 his landH776 in possessionH3423, and the landH776 of OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316, the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, whichH834 were beyondH5676 JordanH3383 toward the sunrisingH4217; 48from AroerH6177, whichH834 is on the edgeH8193 of the valleyH5158 of ArnonH769, evenH5704 unto mountH2022 SionH7865 (the sameH1931 is HermonH2768), 49and allH3605 the ArabahH6160 beyondH5676 JordanH3383 eastwardH4217, evenH5704 unto the seaH3220 of the ArabahH6160, underH8478 the slopesH794 of PisgahH6449.
