1. Now, Israel, listen to the laws and commands I will teach you. Obey them so that you will live and so that you will go over and take the land the Lord, the God of your ancestors, is giving to you.
1. Now H6258 therefore hearken H8085 , O Israel H3478 , unto H413 the statutes H2706 and unto H413 the judgments H4941 , which H834 I H595 teach H3925 you , for to do H6213 them , that H4616 ye may live H2421 , and go in H935 and possess H3423 H853 the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 God H430 of your fathers H1 giveth H5414 you.
2. Don't add to these commands, and don't leave anything out, but obey the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.
2. Ye shall not H3808 add H3254 unto H5921 the word H1697 which H834 I H595 command H6680 you, neither H3808 shall ye diminish H1639 aught from H4480 it , that ye may keep H8104 H853 the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 your God H430 which H834 I H595 command H6680 you.
3. You have seen for yourselves what the Lord did at Baal Peor, how the Lord your God destroyed everyone among you who followed Baal in Peor.
3. Your eyes H5869 have seen H7200 H853 what H834 the LORD H3068 did H6213 because of Baal H1187 -peor: for H3588 all H3605 the men H376 that H834 followed H1980 H310 Baal H1187 -peor , the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath destroyed H8045 them from among H4480 H7130 you.
4. But all of you who continued following the Lord your God are still alive today.
4. But ye H859 that did cleave H1695 unto the LORD H3068 your God H430 are alive H2416 every one H3605 of you this day H3117 .
5. Look,. I have taught you the laws and rules the Lord my God commanded me. Now you can obey the laws in the land you are entering, in the land you will take.
5. Behold H7200 , I have taught H3925 you statutes H2706 and judgments H4941 , even as H834 the LORD H3068 my God H430 commanded H6680 me , that ye should do H6213 so H3651 in H7130 the land H776 whither H834 H8033 ye H859 go H935 to possess H3423 it.
6. Obey these laws carefully, in order to show the other nations that you have wisdom and understanding. When they hear about these laws, they will say, "This great nation of Israel is wise and understanding."
6. Keep H8104 therefore and do H6213 them ; for H3588 this H1931 is your wisdom H2451 and your understanding H998 in the sight H5869 of the nations H5971 , which H834 shall hear H8085 H853 all H3605 these H428 statutes H2706 , and say H559 , Surely H7535 this H2088 great H1419 nation H1471 is a wise H2450 and understanding H995 people H5971 .
7. No other nation is as great as we are. Their gods do not come near them, but the Lord our God comes near when we pray to him.
7. For H3588 what H4310 nation H1471 is there so great H1419 , who H834 hath God H430 so nigh H7138 unto H413 them , as the LORD H3068 our God H430 is in all H3605 things that we call H7121 upon H413 him for ?
8. And no other nation has such good teachings and commands as those I am giving to you today.
8. And what H4310 nation H1471 is there so great H1419 , that H834 hath statutes H2706 and judgments H4941 so righteous H6662 as all H3605 this H2063 law H8451 , which H834 I H595 set H5414 before H6440 you this day H3117 ?
9. But be careful! Watch out and don't forget the things you have seen. Don't forget them as long as you live, but teach them to your children and grandchildren.
9. Only H7535 take heed H8104 to thyself , and keep H8104 thy soul H5315 diligently H3966 , lest H6435 thou forget H7911 H853 the things H1697 which H834 thine eyes H5869 have seen H7200 , and lest H6435 they depart H5493 from thy heart H4480 H3824 all H3605 the days H3117 of thy life H2416 : but teach H3045 them thy sons H1121 , and thy sons H1121 ' sons H1121 ;
10. Remember the day you stood before the Lord your God at Mount Sinai. He said to me, "Bring the people together so I can tell them what I have to say. Then they will respect me as long as they live in the land, and they will teach these things to their children."
10. Especially the day H3117 that H834 thou stoodest H5975 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in Horeb H2722 , when the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 me , Gather me the people together H6950 H853 H5971 , and I will make them hear H8085 H853 my words H1697 , that H834 they may learn H3925 to fear H3372 me all H3605 the days H3117 that H834 they H1992 shall live H2416 upon H5921 the earth H127 , and that they may teach H3925 their children H1121 .
11. When you came and stood at the bottom of the mountain, it blazed with fire that reached to the sky, and black clouds made it very dark.
11. And ye came near H7126 and stood H5975 under H8478 the mountain H2022 ; and the mountain H2022 burned H1197 with fire H784 unto H5704 the midst H3820 of heaven H8064 , with darkness H6205 , clouds H6051 , and thick darkness H6205 .
12. The Lord spoke to you from the fire. You heard the sound of words, but you did not see him; there was only a voice.
12. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 you out of the midst H4480 H8432 of the fire H784 : ye H859 heard H8085 the voice H6963 of the words H1697 , but saw H7200 no H369 similitude H8544 ; only H2108 ye heard a voice H6963 .
13. The Lord told you about his Agreement, the Ten Commandments. He told you to obey them, and he wrote them on two stone tablets.
13. And he declared H5046 unto you H853 his covenant H1285 , which H834 he commanded H6680 you to perform H6213 , even ten H6235 commandments H1697 ; and he wrote H3789 them upon H5921 two H8147 tables H3871 of stone H68 .
14. Then the Lord commanded me to teach you the laws and rules that you must obey in the land you will take when you cross the Jordan River.
14. And the LORD H3068 commanded H6680 me at that H1931 time H6256 to teach H3925 you statutes H2706 and judgments H4941 , that ye might do H6213 them in the land H776 whither H834 H8033 ye H859 go over H5674 to possess H3423 it.
15. Since the Lord spoke to you from the fire at Mount Sinai, but you did not see him, watch yourselves carefully!
15. Take ye therefore good heed H8104 H3966 unto yourselves H5315 ; for H3588 ye saw H7200 no H3808 manner H3605 of similitude H8544 on the day H3117 that the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 you in Horeb H2722 out of the midst H4480 H8432 of the fire H784 :
16. Don't sin by making idols of any kind, and don't make statues -- of men or women,
16. Lest H6435 ye corrupt H7843 yourselves , and make H6213 you a graven image H6459 , the similitude H8544 of any H3605 figure H5566 , the likeness H8403 of male H2145 or H176 female H5347 ,
17. of animals on earth or birds that fly in the air,
17. The likeness H8403 of any H3605 beast H929 that H834 is on the earth H776 , the likeness H8403 of any H3605 winged H3671 fowl H6833 that H834 flieth H5774 in the air H8064 ,
18. of anything that crawls on the ground, or of fish in the water below.
18. The likeness H8403 of any thing H3605 that creepeth H7430 on the ground H127 , the likeness H8403 of any H3605 fish H1710 that H834 is in the waters H4325 beneath H4480 H8478 the earth H776 :
19. When you look up at the sky, you see the sun, moon, and stars, and everything in the sky. But don't bow down and worship them, because the Lord your God has made these things for all people everywhere.
19. And lest H6435 thou lift up H5375 thine eyes H5869 unto heaven H8064 , and when thou seest H7200 H853 the sun H8121 , and the moon H3394 , and the stars H3556 , even all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064 , shouldest be driven H5080 to worship H7812 them , and serve H5647 them, which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath divided H2505 H853 unto all H3605 nations H5971 under H8478 the whole H3605 heaven H8064 .
20. But the Lord brought you out of Egypt, which tested you like a furnace for melting iron, and he made you his very own people, as you are now.
20. But the LORD H3068 hath taken H3947 you , and brought you forth H3318 H853 out of the iron H1270 furnace H4480 H3564 , even out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , to be H1961 unto him a people H5971 of inheritance H5159 , as ye are this H2088 day H3117 .
21. The Lord was angry with me because of you, and he swore that I would not cross the Jordan River to go into the good land the Lord your God is giving you as your own.
21. Furthermore the LORD H3068 was angry H599 with me for your sakes H5921 H1697 , and swore H7650 that I should not H1115 go over H5674 H853 Jordan H3383 , and that I should not H1115 go in H935 unto H413 that good H2896 land H776 , which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee for an inheritance H5159 :
22. I will die here in this land and not cross the Jordan, but you will soon go across and take that good land.
22. But H3588 I H595 must die H4191 in this H2063 land H776 , I must not H369 go over H5674 H853 Jordan H3383 : but ye H859 shall go over H5674 , and possess H3423 H853 that H2063 good H2896 land H776 .
23. Be careful. Don't forget the Agreement of the Lord your God that he made with you, and don't make any idols for yourselves, as the Lord your God has commanded you not to do.
23. Take heed H8104 unto yourselves, lest H6435 ye forget H7911 H853 the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 your God H430 , which H834 he made H3772 with H5973 you , and make H6213 you a graven image H6459 , or the likeness H8544 of any H3605 thing , which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath forbidden H6680 thee.
24. The Lord your God is a jealous God, like a fire that burns things up.
24. For H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 is a consuming H398 fire H784 , even a jealous H7067 God H410 .
25. Even after you have lived in the land a long time and have had children and grandchildren, don't do evil things. Don't make any kind of idol, and don't do what the Lord your God says is evil, because that will make him angry.
25. When H3588 thou shalt beget H3205 children H1121 , and children H1121 's children H1121 , and ye shall have remained long H3462 in the land H776 , and shall corrupt H7843 yourselves , and make H6213 a graven image H6459 , or the likeness H8544 of any H3605 thing , and shall do H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 , to provoke him to anger H3707 :
26. If you do, I ask heaven and earth to speak against you this day that you will quickly be removed from this land that you are crossing the Jordan River to take. You will not live there long after that, but you will be completely destroyed.
26. I call H5749 H853 heaven H8064 and earth H776 to witness H5749 against you this day H3117 , that H3588 ye shall soon H4118 utterly perish H6 H6 from off H4480 H5921 the land H776 whereunto H834 H8033 ye H859 go over H5674 H853 Jordan H3383 to possess H3423 it ; ye shall not H3808 prolong H748 your days H3117 upon H5921 it, but H3588 shall utterly be destroyed H8045 H8045 .
27. The Lord will scatter you among the other nations. Only a few of you will be left alive, and those few will be in other nations where the Lord will send you.
27. And the LORD H3068 shall scatter H6327 you among the nations H5971 , and ye shall be left H7604 few H4962 in number H4557 among the heathen H1471 , whither H834 H8033 the LORD H3068 shall lead H5090 you.
28. There you will worship gods made by people, gods made of wood and stone, that cannot see, hear, eat, or smell.
28. And there H8033 ye shall serve H5647 gods H430 , the work H4639 of men H120 's hands H3027 , wood H6086 and stone H68 , which H834 neither H3808 see H7200 , nor H3808 hear H8085 , nor H3808 eat H398 , nor H3808 smell H7306 .
29. But even there you can look for the Lord your God, and you will find him if you look for him with your whole being.
29. But if from thence H4480 H8033 thou shalt seek H1245 H853 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 , thou shalt find H4672 him , if H3588 thou seek H1875 him with all H3605 thy heart H3824 and with all H3605 thy soul H5315 .
30. It will be hard when all these things happen to you. But after that you will come back to the Lord your God and obey him,
30. When thou art in tribulation H6862 , and all H3605 these H428 things H1697 are come H4672 upon thee, even in the latter H319 days H3117 , if thou turn H7725 to H5704 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 , and shalt be obedient H8085 unto his voice H6963 ;
31. because the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you. He will not forget the Agreement with your ancestors, which he swore to them.
31. ( For H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 is a merciful H7349 God;) H410 he will not H3808 forsake H7503 thee, neither H3808 destroy H7843 thee, nor H3808 forget H7911 H853 the covenant H1285 of thy fathers H1 which H834 he swore H7650 unto them.
32. Nothing like this has ever happened before! Look at the past, long before you were even born. Go all the way back to when God made humans on the earth, and look from one end of heaven to the other. Nothing like this has ever been heard of!
32. For H3588 ask H7592 now H4994 of the days H3117 that are past H7223 , which H834 were H1961 before H6440 thee, since H4480 the day H3117 that H834 God H430 created H1254 man H120 upon H5921 the earth H776 , and ask from the one side H4480 H7097 of heaven H8064 unto H5704 the other H7097 H8064 , whether there hath been H1961 any such thing as this H2088 great H1419 thing H1697 is , or H176 hath been heard H8085 like it H3644 ?
33. No other people have ever heard God speak from a fire and have still lived. But you have.
33. Did ever people H5971 hear H8085 the voice H6963 of God H430 speaking H1696 out of the midst H4480 H8432 of the fire H784 , as H834 thou H859 hast heard H8085 , and live H2421 ?
34. No other god has ever taken for himself one nation out of another. But the Lord your God did this for you in Egypt, right before your own eyes. He did it with tests, signs, miracles, war, and great sights, by his great power and strength.
34. Or H176 hath God H430 attempted H5254 to go H935 and take H3947 him a nation H1471 from the midst H4480 H7130 of another nation H1471 , by temptations H4531 , by signs H226 , and by wonders H4159 , and by war H4421 , and by a mighty H2389 hand H3027 , and by a stretched out H5186 arm H2220 , and by great H1419 terrors H4172 , according to all H3605 that H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 did H6213 for you in Egypt H4714 before your eyes H5869 ?
35. He showed you things so you would know that the Lord is God, and there is no other God besides him.
35. Unto thee H859 it was showed H7200 , that thou mightest know H3045 that H3588 the LORD H3068 he H1931 is God H430 ; there is none H369 else H5750 beside H4480 H905 him.
36. He spoke to you from heaven to teach you. He showed you his great fire on earth, and you heard him speak from the fire.
36. Out of H4480 heaven H8064 he made thee to hear H8085 H853 his voice H6963 , that he might instruct H3256 thee : and upon H5921 earth H776 he showed H7200 thee H853 his great H1419 fire H784 ; and thou heardest H8085 his words H1697 out of the midst H4480 H8432 of the fire H784 .
37. Because the Lord loved your ancestors, he chose you, their descendants, and he brought you out of Egypt himself by his great strength.
37. And because H8478 H3588 he loved H157 H853 thy fathers H1 , therefore he chose H977 their seed H2233 after H310 them , and brought thee out H3318 in his sight H6440 with his mighty H1419 power H3581 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 ;
38. He forced nations out of their land ahead of you, nations that were bigger and stronger than you were. The Lord did this so he could bring you into their land and give it to you as your own, and this land is yours today.
38. To drive out H3423 nations H1471 from before H4480 H6440 thee greater H1419 and mightier H6099 than H4480 thou art , to bring thee in H935 , to give H5414 thee H853 their land H776 for an inheritance H5159 , as it is this H2088 day H3117 .
39. Know and believe today that the Lord is God. He is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other god!
39. Know H3045 therefore this day H3117 , and consider H7725 it in H413 thine heart H3824 , that H3588 the LORD H3068 he H1931 is God H430 in heaven H8064 above H4480 H4605 , and upon H5921 the earth H776 beneath H4480 H8478 : there is none H369 else H5750 .
40. Obey his laws and commands that I am giving you today so that things will go well for you and your children. Then you will live a long time in the land that the Lord your God is giving to you forever.
40. Thou shalt keep H8104 therefore H853 his statutes H2706 , and his commandments H4687 , which H834 I H595 command H6680 thee this day H3117 , that H834 it may go well H3190 with thee , and with thy children H1121 after H310 thee , and that H4616 thou mayest prolong H748 thy days H3117 upon H5921 the earth H127 , which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee, forever H3605 H3117 .
41. Moses chose three cities east of the Jordan River,
41. Then H227 Moses H4872 severed H914 three H7969 cities H5892 on this side H5676 Jordan H3383 toward the sunrising H4217 H8121 ;
42. where a person who accidentally killed someone could go. If the person was not killed because of hatred, the murderer's life could be saved by running to one of these cities.
42. That the slayer H7523 might flee H5127 thither H8033 , which H834 should kill H7523 H853 his neighbor H7453 unawares H1097 H1847 , and hated H8130 him not H3808 in times past H4480 H8543 H8032 ; and that fleeing H5127 unto H413 one H259 of H4480 these H411 cities H5892 he might live H2425 :
43. These were the cities: Bezer in the desert high plain was for the Reubenites; Ramoth in Gilead was for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan was for the Manassites.
43. Namely , H853 Bezer H1221 in the wilderness H4057 , in the plain H4334 country H776 , of the Reubenites H7206 ; and Ramoth H7216 in Gilead H1568 , of the Gadites H1425 ; and Golan H1474 in Bashan H1316 , of the Manassites H4520 .
44. These are the teachings Moses gave to the people of Israel.
44. And this H2063 is the law H8451 which H834 Moses H4872 set H7760 before H6440 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 :
45. They are the rules, commands, and laws he gave them when they came out of Egypt.
45. These H428 are the testimonies H5713 , and the statutes H2706 , and the judgments H4941 , which H834 Moses H4872 spoke H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , after they came forth H3318 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 ,
46. They were in the valley near Beth Peor, east of the Jordan River, in the land of Sihon. Sihon king of the Amorites ruled in Heshbon and was defeated by Moses and the Israelites as they came out of Egypt.
46. On this side H5676 Jordan H3383 , in the valley H1516 over against H4136 Beth H1047 -peor , in the land H776 of Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites H567 , who H834 dwelt H3427 at Heshbon H2809 , whom H834 Moses H4872 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 smote H5221 , after they were come forth H3318 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 :
47. The Israelites took his land and the land of Og king of Bashan, the two Amorite kings east of the Jordan River.
47. And they possessed H3423 H853 his land H776 , and the land H776 of Og H5747 king H4428 of Bashan H1316 , two H8147 kings H4428 of the Amorites H567 , which H834 were on this side H5676 Jordan H3383 toward the sunrising H4217 H8121 ;
48. This land went from Aroer, on the edge of the Arnon Ravine, to Mount Hermon.
48. From Aroer H4480 H6177 , which H834 is by H5921 the bank H8193 of the river H5158 Arnon H769 , even unto H5704 mount H2022 Zion H7865 , which H1931 is Hermon H2768 ,
49. It included all the Jordan Valley east of the Jordan River, and it went as far as the Dead Sea below Mount Pisgah.
49. And all H3605 the plain H6160 on this side H5676 Jordan H3383 eastward H4217 , even unto H5704 the sea H3220 of the plain H6160 , under H8478 the springs H794 of Pisgah H6449 .
