A Conservative Version

Deu 1:1 ¶ These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah opposite Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.
Deu 1:2 It is eleven days [journey] from Horeb by the way of mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea.
Deu 1:3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the sons of Israel, according to all that LORD had given him in commandment to them,
Deu 1:4 after he had smitten Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt in Ashtaroth, at Edrei.
Deu 1:5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,
Deu 1:6 LORD our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough at this mountain.
Deu 1:7 Turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill-country of the Amorites, and to all [the places] near thereto, in the Arabah, in the hill-country, and in the lowland, and in the South, and by the sea-shore, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
Deu 1:8 Behold, I have set the land before you. Go in and possess the land which LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their seed after them.
Deu 1:9 ¶ And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone.
Deu 1:10 LORD your God has multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Deu 1:11 LORD, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as ye are, and bless you, as he has promised you!
Deu 1:12 How can I myself alone bear your encumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
Deu 1:13 Take for you wise men, and understanding, and known, according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.
Deu 1:14 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou have spoken is good to do.
Deu 1:15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.
Deu 1:16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the sojourner who is with him.
Deu 1:17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment. Ye shall hear the small and the great alike. Ye shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God’s. And the case that is too hard for you ye shall bring to me, and I will hear it.
Deu 1:18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.
Deu 1:19 ¶ And we journeyed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which ye saw, by the way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as LORD our God commanded us, and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
Deu 1:20 And I said to you, Ye have come to the hill-country of the Amorites, which LORD our God gives to us.
Deu 1:21 Behold, LORD thy God has set the land before thee. Go up, take possession, as LORD, the God of thy fathers, has spoken to thee. Fear not, neither be dismayed.
Deu 1:22 And ye came near to me, all of you, and said, Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come.
Deu 1:23 And the thing pleased me well. And I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe.
Deu 1:24 And they turned and went up into the hill-country, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
Deu 1:25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which LORD our God gives to us.
Deu 1:26 Yet ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of LORD your God.
Deu 1:27 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because LORD hated us, he has brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
Deu 1:28 Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our heart to melt, saying, The people are greater and taller than we. The cities are great and fortified up to heaven, and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.
Deu 1:29 Then I said to you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.
Deu 1:30 LORD your God who goes before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
Deu 1:31 and in the wilderness, where thou have seen how that LORD thy God bore thee, as a man bears his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came to this place.
Deu 1:32 Yet in this thing ye did not believe LORD your God,
Deu 1:33 who went before you in the way, to seek out a place for you to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in the cloud by day.
Deu 1:34 And LORD heard the voice of your words, and was angry, and swore, saying,
Deu 1:35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see the good land, which I swore to give to your fathers,
Deu 1:36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh. He shall see it, and I will give to him the land that he has trodden upon, and to his sons, because he has wholly followed LORD.
Deu 1:37 Also LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shall not go in there.
Deu 1:38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before thee, he shall go in there. Encourage thou him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
Deu 1:39 Moreover your little ones, who ye said would be a prey, and your sons, who this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there, and I will give it to them, and they shall possess it.
Deu 1:40 But as for you, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.
Deu 1:41 Then ye answered and said to me, We have sinned against LORD, we will go up and fight according to all that LORD our God commanded us. And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and were forward to go up into the hill-country.
Deu 1:42 And LORD said to me, Say to them, Do not go up, neither fight, for I am not among you, lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
Deu 1:43 So I spoke to you, and ye did not hearken, but ye rebelled against the commandment of LORD, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill-country.
Deu 1:44 And the Amorites, who dwelt in that hill-country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to Hormah.
Deu 1:45 And ye returned and wept before LORD, but LORD did not hearken to your voice, nor gave ear to you.
Deu 1:46 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according to the days that ye abode [there].
Deu 2:1 ¶ Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea, as LORD spoke to me. And we encompassed mount Seir many days.
Deu 2:2 And LORD spoke to me, saying,
Deu 2:3 Ye have encompassed this mountain long enough, turn northward.
Deu 2:4 And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the border of your brothers the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, and they will be afraid of you. Take ye good heed to yourselves therefore.
Deu 2:5 Do not contend with them, for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on, because I have given mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
Deu 2:6 Ye shall purchase food from them for money, that ye may eat, and ye shall also buy water from them for money, that ye may drink.
Deu 2:7 For LORD thy God has blessed thee in all the work of thy hand. He has known thy walking through this great wilderness. These forty years LORD thy God has been with thee; thou have lacked nothing.
Deu 2:8 ¶ So we passed by from our brothers the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, from the way of the Arabah from Elath and from Ezion-geber. And we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
Deu 2:9 And LORD said to me, Do not vex Moab, neither contend with them in battle, for I will not give thee of his land for a possession, because I have given Ar to the sons of Lot for a possession.
Deu 2:10 (The Emim dwelt in it formerly, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim.
Deu 2:11 These also are accounted Rephaim, as the Anakim, but the Moabites call them Emim.
Deu 2:12 The Horites also dwelt in Seir formerly, but the sons of Esau succeeded them. And they destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which LORD gave to them.)
Deu 2:13 Now rise up, and get you over the brook Zered. And we went over the brook Zered.
Deu 2:14 And the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we came over the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the midst of the camp, as LORD swore to them.
Deu 2:15 Moreover the hand of LORD was against them, to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
Deu 2:16 So it came to pass, when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,
Deu 2:17 that LORD spoke to me, saying,
Deu 2:18 Thou are this day to pass over Ar, the border of Moab.
Deu 2:19 And when thou come near opposite the sons of Ammon, do not vex them, nor contend with them, for I will not give thee of the land of the sons of Ammon for a possession, because I have given it to the sons of Lot for a possession.
Deu 2:20 (That also is accounted a land of Rephaim. Rephaim dwelt in it formerly, but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,
Deu 2:21 a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakim. But LORD destroyed them before them, and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead,
Deu 2:22 as he did for the sons of Esau, who dwell in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them. And they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even to this day.
Deu 2:23 And the Avvim, who dwelt in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorim, who came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.)
Deu 2:24 ¶ Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the valley of the Arnon. Behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.
Deu 2:25 This day I will begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples who are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.
Deu 2:26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth to Sihon king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
Deu 2:27 Let me pass through thy land. I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.
Deu 2:28 Thou shall sell me food for money, that I may eat, and give me water for money, that I may drink. Only let me pass through on my feet,
Deu 2:29 as the sons of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me, until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which LORD our God gives us.
Deu 2:30 But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him, for LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.
Deu 2:31 And LORD said to me, Behold, I have begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before thee. Begin to possess, that thou may inherit his land.
Deu 2:32 Then Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Jahaz.
Deu 2:33 And LORD our God delivered him up before us. And we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
Deu 2:34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining.
Deu 2:35 We only took the cattle for a prey to ourselves, with the spoil of the cities which we had taken.
Deu 2:36 From Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and [from] the city that is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was not a city too high for us. LORD our God delivered up all before us.
Deu 2:37 Only to the land of the sons of Ammon thou did not come near, all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the hill-country, and wherever LORD our God forbad us.
Deu 3:1 ¶ Then we turned, and went up the way to Bashan. And Og the king of Bashan came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.
Deu 3:2 And LORD said to me, Fear him not, for I have delivered him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand. And thou shall do to him as thou did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.
Deu 3:3 So LORD our God delivered into our hand Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people, and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
Deu 3:4 And we took all his cities at that time. There was not a city which we did not take from them, sixty cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Deu 3:5 All these were cities fortified with high walls, gates, and bars; besides the un-walled towns a great many.
Deu 3:6 And we utterly destroyed them, as we did to Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every inhabited city, with the women and the little ones.
Deu 3:7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.
Deu 3:8 And we took the land at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, from the valley of the Arnon to mount Hermon
Deu 3:9 (the Sidonians call Hermon, Sirion, and the Amorites call it Senir),
Deu 3:10 all the cities of the plain, and all Gilead, and all Bashan, to Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Deu 3:11 (For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron. Is it not in Rabbah of the sons of Ammon? Nine cubits was the length of it, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.)
Deu 3:12 ¶ And we took this land in possession at that time. From Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill-country of Gilead, and the cities of it, I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites.
Deu 3:13 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, all the region of Argob, even all Bashan. The same is called the land of Rephaim.
Deu 3:14 (Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, to the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth-jair, to this day.)
Deu 3:15 And I gave Gilead to Machir.
Deu 3:16 And I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites from Gilead even to the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and the border [of it], even to the river Jabbok, which is the border of the sons of Ammon,
Deu 3:17 also the Arabah, and the Jordan and the border [of it], from Chinnereth even to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah eastward.
Deu 3:18 And I commanded you at that time, saying, LORD your God has given you this land to possess it. Ye shall pass over armed before your brothers the sons of Israel, all the men of valor.
Deu 3:19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (I know that ye have much cattle,) shall abide in your cities which I have given you
Deu 3:20 until LORD gives rest to your brothers, as to you, and they also possess the land which LORD your God gives them beyond the Jordan, then ye shall return every man to his possession, which I have given you.
Deu 3:21 ¶ And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that LORD your God has done to these two kings. So shall LORD do to all the kingdoms where thou go over.
Deu 3:22 Ye shall not fear them, for LORD your God, he it is who fights for you.
Deu 3:23 And I besought LORD at that time, saying,
Deu 3:24 O lord LORD, thou have begun to show thy servant thy greatness, and thy strong hand, for what god is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy mighty acts?
Deu 3:25 Let me go over, I pray thee, and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
Deu 3:26 But LORD was angry with me because of you, and did not hearken to me. And LORD said to me, It shall be enough for thee. Speak no more to me of this matter.
Deu 3:27 Get thee up to the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold with thine eyes, for thou shall not go over this Jordan.
Deu 3:28 But charge Joshua, and encourage him, and strengthen him, for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shall see.
Deu 3:29 So we abode in the valley opposite Beth-peor.
Deu 4:1 ¶ And now, O Israel, hearken to the statutes and to the ordinances, which I teach you, to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which LORD, the God of your fathers, gives you.
Deu 4:2 Ye shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of LORD your God which I command you.
Deu 4:3 Your eyes have seen what LORD did because of Baal-peor. For all the men who followed Baal-peor, LORD thy God has destroyed them from the midst of thee.
Deu 4:4 But ye who clung to LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
Deu 4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, even as LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the midst of the land where ye go in to possess it.
Deu 4:6 Keep therefore and do them, for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
Deu 4:7 For what great nation is there that has a god so near to them, as LORD our God is whenever we call upon him?
Deu 4:8 And what great nation is there that has statutes and ordinances so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
Deu 4:9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes saw, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life, but make them known to thy sons and thy son’s sons—
Deu 4:10 the day that thou stood before LORD thy God in Horeb, when LORD said to me, Assemble the people to me, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their sons.
Deu 4:11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain, and the mountain burned with fire to the heart of heaven, with darkness, cloud, and thick darkness.
Deu 4:12 And LORD spoke to you out of the midst of the fire. Ye heard the voice of words, but ye saw no form, only a voice.
Deu 4:13 And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even the ten commandments. And he wrote them upon two tablets of stone.
Deu 4:14 And LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land where ye go over to possess it.
Deu 4:15 Take ye therefore good heed to yourselves, for ye saw no manner of form on the day that LORD spoke to you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire.
Deu 4:16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make for you a graven image in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
Deu 4:17 the likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the sky,
Deu 4:18 the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth.
Deu 4:19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes to heaven, and when thou see the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which LORD thy God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.
Deu 4:20 But LORD has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as at this day.
Deu 4:21 Furthermore LORD was angry with me because of you, and swore that I would not go over the Jordan, and that I would not go in to that good land, which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance,
Deu 4:22 but I must die in this land. I must not go over the Jordan, but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.
Deu 4:23 Take heed to yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image in the form of anything which LORD thy God has forbidden thee.
Deu 4:24 For LORD thy God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
Deu 4:25 When thou shall beget sons, and son’s sons, and ye shall have been long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image in the form of anything, and shall do that which is evil in the sight of LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger,
Deu 4:26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land to which ye go over the Jordan to possess it. Ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall be utterly destroyed.
Deu 4:27 And LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and ye shall be left few in number among the nations where LORD shall lead you away.
Deu 4:28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
Deu 4:29 But from there ye shall seek LORD thy God. And thou shall find him when thou search after him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
Deu 4:30 When thou are in tribulation, and all these things have come upon thee, in the latter days thou shall return to LORD thy God, and hearken to his voice.
Deu 4:31 For LORD thy God is a merciful God. He will not fail thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he swore to them.
Deu 4:32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and from the one end of heaven to the other, whether there has been [anything] as this great thing is, or has been heard like it?
Deu 4:33 Did a people ever hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou have heard, and live?
Deu 4:34 Or has God assayed to go and take for him a nation from the midst of [another] nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Deu 4:35 It was shown to thee, that thou might know that LORD he is God. There is none else besides him.
Deu 4:36 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee. And upon earth he made thee to see his great fire, and thou heard his words out of the midst of the fire.
Deu 4:37 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out with his presence, with his great power, out of Egypt,
Deu 4:38 to drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as at this day.
Deu 4:39 Know therefore this day, and lay it to thy heart, that LORD he is God in heaven above and upon the earth beneath. There is none else.
Deu 4:40 And thou shall keep his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy sons after thee, and that thou may prolong thy days in the land, which LORD thy God gives thee, forever.
Deu 4:41 ¶ Then Moses set apart three cities beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise,
Deu 4:42 that the manslayer might flee there, who kills his neighbor unawares, and did not hate him in time past, and that fleeing to one of these cities he might live:
Deu 4:43 [namely], Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, for the Manassites.
Deu 4:44 And this is the law which Moses set before the sons of Israel.
Deu 4:45 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which Moses spoke to the sons of Israel, when they came forth out of Egypt,
Deu 4:46 beyond the Jordan, in the valley opposite Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the sons of Israel smote when they came forth out of Egypt.
Deu 4:47 And they took his land in possession, and the land of Og king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise,
Deu 4:48 from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, even to mount Sion (the same is Hermon),
Deu 4:49 and all the Arabah beyond the Jordan eastward, even to the sea of the Arabah, under the slopes of Pisgah.
Deu 5:1 ¶ And Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and observe to do them.
Deu 5:2 LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Deu 5:3 LORD did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
Deu 5:4 LORD spoke with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire
Deu 5:5 (I stood between LORD and you at that time, to show you the word of LORD, for ye were afraid because of the fire, and did not go up onto the mount), saying,
Deu 5:6 ¶ I am LORD thy God who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Deu 5:7 Thou shall have no other gods before me.
Deu 5:8 Thou shall not make to thee a graven image: any likeness that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Deu 5:9 Thou shall not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them, for I, LORD thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of those who hate me,
Deu 5:10 and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
Deu 5:11 Thou shall not take the name of LORD thy God in vain, for LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
Deu 5:12 Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as LORD thy God commanded thee.
Deu 5:13 Six days thou shall labor, and do all thy work,
Deu 5:14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to LORD thy God: thou shall not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thy donkey, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates, that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou.
Deu 5:15 And thou shall remember that thou were a servant in the land of Egypt, and LORD thy God brought thee out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm, therefore LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day.
Deu 5:16 Honor thy father and thy mother, as LORD thy God commanded thee, that thy days may be long, and that it may go well with thee in the land which LORD thy God gives thee.
Deu 5:17 Thou shall not murder.
Deu 5:18 Neither shall thou commit adultery.
Deu 5:19 Neither shall thou steal.
Deu 5:20 Neither shall thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
Deu 5:21 Neither shall thou covet thy neighbor’s wife. Neither shall thou desire thy neighbor’s house, his field, or his man-servant, or his maid-servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is thy neighbor’s.
Deu 5:22 These words LORD spoke to all your assembly on the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice, and he added no more. And he wrote them upon two tablets of stone, and gave them to me.
Deu 5:23 ¶ And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that ye came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders.
Deu 5:24 And ye said, Behold, LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man, and he lives.
Deu 5:25 Now therefore why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of LORD our God any more, then we shall die.
Deu 5:26 For who is there of all flesh, who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
Deu 5:27 Go thou near, and hear all that LORD our God shall say. And speak thou to us all that LORD our God shall speak to thee, and we will hear it, and do it.
Deu 5:28 And LORD heard the voice of your words, when ye spoke to me. And LORD said to me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken to thee. They have well said all that they have spoken.
Deu 5:29 Oh that there were such a heart in them that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their sons forever!
Deu 5:30 Go say to them, Return ye to your tents.
Deu 5:31 But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak to thee all the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
Deu 5:32 Ye shall observe to do therefore as LORD your God has commanded you. Ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
Deu 5:33 Ye shall walk in all the way which LORD your God has commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
Deu 6:1 ¶ Now this is the commandment, the statutes and the ordinances, which LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land where ye go over to possess it,
Deu 6:2 that thou might fear LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life, and that thy days may be prolonged.
Deu 6:3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it, that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as LORD, the God of thy fathers, has promised to thee, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 6:4 ¶ Hear, O Israel: LORD our God is one LORD.
Deu 6:5 And thou shall love LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Deu 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be upon thy heart.
Deu 6:7 And thou shall teach them diligently to thy sons, and shall talk of them when thou sit in thy house, and when thou walk by the way, and when thou lie down, and when thou rise up.
Deu 6:8 And thou shall bind them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be for frontlets between thine eyes.
Deu 6:9 And thou shall write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates.
Deu 6:10 And it shall be, when LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land which he swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee, great and goodly cities, which thou did not build,
Deu 6:11 and houses full of all good things, which thou did not fill, and cisterns hewn out, which thou did not hew, vineyards and olive trees, which thou did not plant, and thou shall eat and be full,
Deu 6:12 then beware lest thou forget LORD, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Deu 6:13 Thou shall fear LORD thy God, and him thou shall serve, and shall swear by his name.
Deu 6:14 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples that are round about you,
Deu 6:15 for LORD thy God in the midst of thee is a jealous God, lest the anger of LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and he destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
Deu 6:16 Ye shall not challenge LORD your God, as ye challenged him in Massah.
Deu 6:17 ¶ Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of LORD your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded thee.
Deu 6:18 And thou shall do that which is right and good in the sight of LORD, that it may be well with thee, and that thou may go in and possess the good land which LORD swore to thy fathers,
Deu 6:19 to thrust out all thine enemies from before thee, as LORD has spoken.
Deu 6:20 When thy son asks thee in time to come, saying, What is the meaning of the testimonies, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which LORD our God has commanded you?
Deu 6:21 Then thou shall say to thy son, We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt, and LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
Deu 6:22 And LORD showed signs and wonders, great and grievous, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his house, before our eyes.
Deu 6:23 And he brought us out from there that he might bring us in to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.
Deu 6:24 And LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear LORD our God for our good always, that he might preserve us alive as at this day.
Deu 6:25 And it shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this commandment before LORD our God as he has commanded us.
Deu 7:1 ¶ When LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land where thou go to possess it, and shall cast out many nations before thee, the Hittite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, seven nations greater and mightier than thou,
Deu 7:2 and when LORD thy God shall deliver them up before thee, and thou shall smite them, then thou shall utterly destroy them. Thou shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them.
Deu 7:3 Neither shall thou make marriages with them. Thy daughter thou shall not give to his son, nor his daughter shall thou take to thy son.
Deu 7:4 For he will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods, so the anger of LORD will be kindled against you, and he will destroy thee quickly.
Deu 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them: Ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and hew down their Asherim, and burn their graven images with fire.
Deu 7:6 For thou are a holy people to LORD thy God. LORD thy God has chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
Deu 7:7 LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people, for ye were the fewest of all peoples,
Deu 7:8 but because LORD loves you. And because he would keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Deu 7:9 Know therefore that LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with those who love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
Deu 7:10 and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
Deu 7:11 Thou shall therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command thee this day, to do them.
Deu 7:12 ¶ And it shall come to pass, because ye hearken to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that LORD thy God will keep with thee the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to thy fathers.
Deu 7:13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee. He will also bless the fruit of thy body and the fruit of thy ground, thy grain and thy new wine and thine oil, the increase of thy cattle and the young of thy flock, in the land which he swore to thy fathers to give thee.
Deu 7:14 Thou shall be blessed above all peoples. There shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
Deu 7:15 And LORD will take away from thee all sickness. And none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou know, will he put upon thee, but will lay them upon all those who hate thee.
Deu 7:16 And thou shall consume all the peoples that LORD thy God shall deliver to thee. Thine eye shall not pity them. Neither shall thou serve their gods, for that will be a snare to thee.
Deu 7:17 If thou shall say in thy heart, These nations are more than I. How can I dispossess them?
Deu 7:18 Thou shall not be afraid of them. Thou shall remember well what LORD thy God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt:
Deu 7:19 the great trials which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm by which LORD thy God brought thee out. So shall LORD thy God do to all the peoples of whom thou are afraid.
Deu 7:20 Moreover LORD thy God will send the hornet among them until those who are left and hide themselves perish from before thee.
Deu 7:21 Thou shall not be frightened at them, for LORD thy God is in the midst of thee, a great God and awesome.
Deu 7:22 And LORD thy God will cast out those nations before thee little by little. Thou may not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.
Deu 7:23 But LORD thy God will deliver them up before thee, and will discomfit them with a great confusion until they be destroyed.
Deu 7:24 And he will deliver their kings into thy hand, and thou shall make their name to perish from under heaven. There shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou have destroyed them.
Deu 7:25 Ye shall burn the graven images of their gods with fire. Thou shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it to thee, lest thou be snared by it, for it is an abomination to LORD thy God.
Deu 7:26 And thou shall not bring an abomination into thy house, and become a devoted thing like it. Thou shall utterly detest it, and thou shall utterly abhor it, for it is a cursed thing.
Deu 8:1 ¶ All the commandment which I command thee this day ye shall observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which LORD swore to your fathers.
Deu 8:2 And thou shall remember all the way which LORD thy God has led thee these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble thee, to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou would keep his commandments, or not.
Deu 8:3 And he humbled thee, and allowed thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knew not, neither did thy fathers know, that he might make thee know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of LORD.
Deu 8:4 Thy raiment did not grow old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
Deu 8:5 And thou shall consider in thy heart, that, as a man chastens his son, so LORD thy God chastens thee.
Deu 8:6 And thou shall keep the commandments of LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
Deu 8:7 For LORD thy God brings thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills;
Deu 8:8 a land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey,
Deu 8:9 a land in which thou shall eat bread without scarceness. Thou shall not lack anything in it, a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou may dig copper.
Deu 8:10 ¶ And thou shall eat and be full, and thou shall bless LORD thy God for the good land which he has given thee.
Deu 8:11 Beware lest thou forget LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
Deu 8:12 Lest, when thou have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses, and dwelt in it,
Deu 8:13 and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou have is multiplied,
Deu 8:14 then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget LORD thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage,
Deu 8:15 who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness—fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty ground where was no water—who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint,
Deu 8:16 who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers did not know, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end.
Deu 8:17 And [lest] thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.
Deu 8:18 But thou shall remember LORD thy God, for it is he who gives thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore to thy fathers, as at this day.
Deu 8:19 And it shall be, if thou shall forget LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
Deu 8:20 As the nations that LORD makes to perish before you, so shall ye perish, because ye would not hearken to the voice of LORD your God.
Deu 9:1 ¶ Hear, O Israel: Thou are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,
Deu 9:2 a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom thou know, and of whom thou have heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
Deu 9:3 Know therefore this day, that LORD thy God is he who goes over before thee as a devouring fire. He will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee. So thou shall drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as LORD has spoken to thee.
Deu 9:4 Do not speak thou in thy heart, after LORD thy God has thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness LORD has brought me in to possess this land. Whereas for the wickedness of these nations LORD drives them out from before thee.
Deu 9:5 Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, do thou go in to possess their land, but for the wickedness of these nations LORD thy God drives them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which LORD swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Deu 9:6 Know therefore, that LORD thy God does not give thee this good land to possess it for thy righteousness, for thou are a stiff-necked people.
Deu 9:7 ¶ Remember, do not thou forget how thou provoked LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that thou went forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came to this place, ye have been rebellious against LORD.
Deu 9:8 Also in Horeb ye provoked LORD to wrath, and LORD was angry with you to destroy you.
Deu 9:9 When I was gone up onto the mount to receive the tablets of stone, even the tablets of the covenant which LORD made with you, then I abode on the mount forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water.
Deu 9:10 And LORD delivered to me the two tablets of stone written with the finger of God. And on them [was] according to all the words, which LORD spoke with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
Deu 9:11 And it came to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, that LORD gave me the two tablets of stone, even the tablets of the covenant.
Deu 9:12 And LORD said to me, Arise, get thee down quickly from here, for thy people that thou have brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves. They have quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them. They have made them a molten image.
Deu 9:13 Furthermore LORD spoke to me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people.
Deu 9:14 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven, and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
Deu 9:15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount was burning with fire. And the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands.
Deu 9:16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against LORD your God. Ye had made you a molten calf. Ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which LORD had commanded you.
Deu 9:17 And I took hold of the two tablets, and cast them out of my two hands, and broke them before your eyes.
Deu 9:18 And I fell down before LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin which ye sinned, in doing that which was evil in the sight of LORD, to provoke him to anger.
Deu 9:19 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which LORD was angry against you to destroy you. But LORD hearkened to me that time also.
Deu 9:20 And LORD was very angry with Aaron to destroy him. And I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
Deu 9:21 And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust. And I cast the dust of it into the brook that descended out of the mount.
Deu 9:22 And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked LORD to wrath.
Deu 9:23 And when LORD sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you, then ye rebelled against the commandment of LORD your God, and ye did not believe him, nor hearken to his voice.
Deu 9:24 Ye have been rebellious against LORD from the day that I knew you.
Deu 9:25 So I fell down before LORD the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because LORD had said he would destroy you.
Deu 9:26 And I prayed to LORD, and said, O lord LORD, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, that thou have redeemed through thy greatness, that thou have brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
Deu 9:27 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Look not to the stubbornness of this people, nor to their profaneness, nor to their sin,
Deu 9:28 lest the land from where thou brought us out say, Because LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.
Deu 9:29 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou brought out by thy great power and by thine outstretched arm.
Deu 10:1 ¶ At that time LORD said to me, Hew thee two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mount, and make thee an ark of wood.
Deu 10:2 And I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which thou broke, and thou shall put them in the ark.
Deu 10:3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and hewed two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mount, having the two tablets in my hand.
Deu 10:4 And he wrote on the tablets according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which LORD spoke to you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly, and LORD gave them to me.
Deu 10:5 And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made. And they are there as LORD commanded me.
Deu 10:6 (And the sons of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried, and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his stead.
Deu 10:7 From there they journeyed to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
Deu 10:8 At that time LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of LORD, to stand before LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
Deu 10:9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers. LORD is his inheritance, according as LORD thy God spoke to him.)
Deu 10:10 And I stayed on the mount as at the first time, forty days and forty nights, and LORD hearkened to me that time also: LORD would not destroy thee.
Deu 10:11 And LORD said to me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them.
Deu 10:12 ¶ And now, Israel, what does LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
Deu 10:13 to keep the commandments of LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
Deu 10:14 Behold, to LORD thy God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in it.
Deu 10:15 Only LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples as at this day.
Deu 10:16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
Deu 10:17 For LORD your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who regards not persons, nor takes reward.
Deu 10:18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the sojourner in giving him food and raiment.
Deu 10:19 Love ye therefore the sojourner, for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt.
Deu 10:20 Thou shall fear LORD thy God. Him thou shall serve, and to him thou shall cling, and by his name thou shall swear.
Deu 10:21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, who has done for thee these great and awesome things, which thine eyes have seen.
Deu 10:22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt, in souls, seventy. And now LORD thy God has made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Deu 11:1 ¶ Therefore thou shall love LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
Deu 11:2 And ye know this day, for [it is] not with your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
Deu 11:3 and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land,
Deu 11:4 and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots, how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how LORD has destroyed them to this day,
Deu 11:5 and what he did to you in the wilderness, until ye came to this place,
Deu 11:6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel,
Deu 11:7 but your eyes have seen all the great work of LORD which he did.
Deu 11:8 ¶ Therefore ye shall keep all the commandment which I command thee this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where ye go over to possess it,
Deu 11:9 and that ye may prolong your days in the land, which LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 11:10 For the land, where thou go in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from where ye came out, where thou sowed thy seed, and watered it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs,
Deu 11:11 but the land, where ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, [and] drinks water from the rain of heaven,
Deu 11:12 a land which LORD thy God cares for. The eyes of LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
Deu 11:13 And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Deu 11:14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou may gather in thy grain, and thy new wine, and thine oil.
Deu 11:15 And I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, and thou shall eat and be full.
Deu 11:16 Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them,
Deu 11:17 and the anger of LORD be kindled against you, and he shut up the heavens, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit, and ye perish quickly from off the good land which LORD gives you.
Deu 11:18 ¶ Therefore ye shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul. And ye shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
Deu 11:19 And ye shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when thou sit in thy house, and when thou walk by the way, and when thou lie down, and when thou rise up.
Deu 11:20 And thou shall write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates,
Deu 11:21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your sons, in the land which LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
Deu 11:22 For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him,
Deu 11:23 then will LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
Deu 11:24 Every place on which the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours, from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the hinder sea shall be your border.
Deu 11:25 There shall no man be able to stand before you. LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he has spoken to you.
Deu 11:26 ¶ Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
Deu 11:27 the blessing, if ye shall hearken to the commandments of LORD your God, which I command you this day,
Deu 11:28 and the curse, if ye shall not hearken to the commandments of LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
Deu 11:29 And it shall come to pass, when LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land where thou go to possess it, that thou shall set the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
Deu 11:30 Are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
Deu 11:31 For ye are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which LORD your God gives you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell in it.
Deu 11:32 And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
Deu 12:1 ¶ These are the statutes and the ordinances which ye shall observe to do in the land which LORD, the God of thy fathers, has given thee to possess it all the days that ye live upon the earth.
Deu 12:2 Ye shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that ye shall dispossess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree.
Deu 12:3 And ye shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and burn their Asherim with fire. And ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and ye shall destroy their name out of that place.
Deu 12:4 Ye shall not do so to LORD your God.
Deu 12:5 ¶ But to the place which LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation ye shall seek, and there thou shall come.
Deu 12:6 And there ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock.
Deu 12:7 And there ye shall eat before LORD your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand to, ye and your households, in which LORD thy God has blessed thee.
Deu 12:8 Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatever is right in his own eyes.
Deu 12:9 For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which LORD thy God gives thee.
Deu 12:10 But when ye go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which LORD your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety,
Deu 12:11 then it shall come to pass that to the place which LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there, there ye shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow to LORD.
Deu 12:12 And ye shall rejoice before LORD your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your men-servants, and your maid-servants, and the Levite who is within your gates—inasmuch as he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
Deu 12:13 Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in every place that thou see,
Deu 12:14 but in the place which LORD shall choose in one of thy tribes. There thou shall offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shall do all that I command thee.
Deu 12:15 Notwithstanding, thou may kill and eat flesh within all thy gates, after all the desire of thy soul, according to the blessing of LORD thy God which he has given thee, the unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the hart.
Deu 12:16 Only ye shall not eat the blood. Thou shall pour it out upon the ground as water.
Deu 12:17 Thou may not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy grain, or of thy new wine, or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy herd or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vow, nor thy freewill offerings, nor the heave offering of thy hand.
Deu 12:18 But thou shall eat them before LORD thy God in the place which LORD thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite who is within thy gates. And thou shall rejoice before LORD thy God in all that thou put thy hand to.
Deu 12:19 Take heed to thyself that thou not forsake the Levite as long as thou live in thy land.
Deu 12:20 When LORD thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he has promised thee, and thou shall say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul desires to eat flesh, thou may eat flesh, after all the desire of thy soul.
Deu 12:21 If the place which LORD thy God shall choose, to put his name there, be too far from thee, then thou shall kill of thy herd and of thy flock, which LORD has given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou may eat within thy gates, according to all the desire of thy soul.
Deu 12:22 Even as the gazelle and as the hart is eaten, so thou shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
Deu 12:23 Only be sure that thou not eat the blood. For the blood is the life, and thou shall not eat the life with the flesh.
Deu 12:24 Thou shall not eat it. Thou shall pour it out upon the ground as water.
Deu 12:25 Thou shall not eat it, that it may go well with thee, and with thy sons after thee, when thou shall do that which is right in the eyes of LORD.
Deu 12:26 Only thy holy things which thou have, and thy vows, thou shall take, and go to the place which LORD shall choose.
Deu 12:27 And thou shall offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of LORD thy God, and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of LORD thy God, and thou shall eat the flesh.
Deu 12:28 Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may go well with thee, and with thy sons after thee forever, when thou do that which is good and right in the eyes of LORD thy God.
Deu 12:29 When LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, where thou go in to dispossess them, and thou dispossess them, and dwell in their land,
Deu 12:30 take heed to thyself that thou be not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed from before thee, and that thou not inquire after their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods? Even so I will do likewise.
Deu 12:31 Thou shall not do so to LORD thy God. For every abomination to LORD, which he hates, they have done to their gods, for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods.
Deu 12:32 Whatever thing I command you, that shall ye observe to do. Thou shall not add to it, nor diminish from it.
Deu 13:1 ¶ If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and he gives thee a sign or a wonder,
Deu 13:2 and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of which he spoke to thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou have not known, and let us serve them,
Deu 13:3 thou shall not hearken to the words of that prophet, or to that dreamer of dreams, for LORD your God proves you, to know whether ye love LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
Deu 13:4 Ye shall walk after LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cling to him.
Deu 13:5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death, because he has spoken rebellion against LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bondage, to draw thee aside out of the way which LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shall thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 13:6 ¶ If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, who is as thine own soul, entices thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou have not known, thou, nor thy fathers,
Deu 13:7 of the gods of the peoples that are round about you, near to thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth,
Deu 13:8 thou shall not consent to him, nor hearken to him. Neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shall thou spare, neither shall thou conceal him,
Deu 13:9 but thou shall surely kill him. Thy hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
Deu 13:10 And thou shall stone him to death with stones, because he has sought to draw thee away from LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Deu 13:11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall no more do any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.
Deu 13:12 ¶ If thou shall hear tell concerning one of thy cities, which LORD thy God gives thee to dwell there, saying,
Deu 13:13 Certain base fellows have gone out from the midst of thee, and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known,
Deu 13:14 then thou shall inquire, and make search, and ask diligently. And, behold, if it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in the midst of thee,
Deu 13:15 thou shall surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is in it, and the cattle in it, with the edge of the sword.
Deu 13:16 And thou shall gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street of it, and shall burn the city with fire, and all the spoil of it, every whit, to LORD thy God, and it shall be a heap forever. It shall not be built again.
Deu 13:17 And nothing of the devoted thing shall cling to thy hand, that LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and show thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he has sworn to thy fathers,
Deu 13:18 when thou shall hearken to the voice of LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of LORD thy God.
Deu 14:1 ¶ Ye are the sons of LORD your God. Ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
Deu 14:2 For thou are a holy people to LORD thy God, and LORD has chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
Deu 14:3 Thou shall not eat any abominable thing.
Deu 14:4 These are the beasts which ye may eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
Deu 14:5 the hart, and the gazelle, and the roebuck, and the wild goat, and the ibex, and the antelope, and the chamois.
Deu 14:6 And every beast that parts the hoof, and has the hoof cloven in two, [and] chews the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat.
Deu 14:7 Nevertheless of those that chew the cud, or of those that have the hoof cloven, these ye shall not eat: the camel, and the hare, and the coney, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, they are unclean to you,
Deu 14:8 and the swine, because he parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, he is unclean to you. Of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcasses ye shall not touch.
Deu 14:9 These ye may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales ye may eat.
Deu 14:10 And whatever does not have fins and scales ye shall not eat; it is unclean to you.
Deu 14:11 Of all clean birds ye may eat,
Deu 14:12 but these are those of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey,
Deu 14:13 and the glede, and the falcon, and the kite according to its kind,
Deu 14:14 and every raven after its kind,
Deu 14:15 and the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the sea-gull, and the hawk according to its kind,
Deu 14:16 the little owl, and the great owl, and the horned owl,
Deu 14:17 and the pelican, and the vulture, and the cormorant,
Deu 14:18 and the stork, and the heron according to its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
Deu 14:19 And all winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.
Deu 14:20 Of all clean birds ye may eat.
Deu 14:21 Ye shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. Thou may give it to the sojourner who is within thy gates, that he may eat it, or thou may sell it to a foreigner, for thou are a holy people to LORD thy God. Thou shall not boil a kid in its mother’s milk.
Deu 14:22 ¶ Thou shall surely tithe all the increase of thy seed; that which comes forth from the field year by year.
Deu 14:23 And thou shall eat before LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy grain, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd and of thy flock, that thou may learn to fear LORD thy God always.
Deu 14:24 And if the way is too long for thee, so that thou are not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there when LORD thy God shall bless thee,
Deu 14:25 then thou shall turn it into money, and bind up the money in thy hand, and shall go to the place which LORD thy God shall choose.
Deu 14:26 And thou shall bestow the money for whatever thy soul desires, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever thy soul asks of thee. And thou shall eat there before LORD thy God, and thou shall rejoice, thou and thy household.
Deu 14:27 And the Levite who is within thy gates, thou shall not forsake him, for he has no portion nor inheritance with thee.
Deu 14:28 At the end of every three years thou shall bring forth all the tithe of thine increase in the same year, and shall lay it up within thy gates.
Deu 14:29 And the Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied, that LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou do.
Deu 15:1 ¶ At the end of every seven years thou shall make a release.
Deu 15:2 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor shall release that which he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not exact it from his neighbor and his brother, because LORD’s release has been proclaimed.
Deu 15:3 From a foreigner thou may exact it, but whatever of thine is with thy brother, thy hand shall release.
Deu 15:4 However there shall be no poor with thee (for LORD will surely bless thee in the land which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance to possess it),
Deu 15:5 if only thou diligently hearken to the voice of LORD thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
Deu 15:6 For LORD thy God will bless thee as he promised thee, and thou shall lend to many nations, but thou shall not borrow, and thou shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over thee.
Deu 15:7 If there be with thee a poor man, one of thy brothers, within any of thy gates in thy land which LORD thy God gives thee, thou shall not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy poor brother,
Deu 15:8 but thou shall surely open thy hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need which he wants.
Deu 15:9 Beware that there not be a base thought in thy heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand, and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou give him nothing, and he cry to LORD against thee, and it be sin to thee.
Deu 15:10 Thou shall surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou give to him, because for this thing LORD thy God will bless thee in all thy work, and in all that thou put thy hand to.
Deu 15:11 For the poor will never cease out of the land. Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shall surely open thy hand to thy brother, to thy needy, and to thy poor, in thy land.
Deu 15:12 ¶ If thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to thee, and serves thee six years, then in the seventh year thou shall let him go free from thee.
Deu 15:13 And when thou let him go free from thee, thou shall not let him go empty.
Deu 15:14 Thou shall furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy winepress. As LORD thy God has blessed thee thou shall give to him.
Deu 15:15 And thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in the land of Egypt, and LORD thy God redeemed thee. Therefore I command thee this thing today.
Deu 15:16 And it shall be, if he says to thee, I will not go out from thee, because he loves thee and thy house, because he is well with thee,
Deu 15:17 then thou shall take an awl, and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall be thy servant forever. And also to thy maid-servant thou shall do likewise.
Deu 15:18 It shall not seem hard to thee when thou let him go free from thee, for he has been worth a double hired servant to thee, in serving thee six years. And LORD thy God will bless thee in all that thou do.
Deu 15:19 ¶ All the firstling males that are born of thy herd and of thy flock thou shall sanctify to LORD thy God. Thou shall do no work with the firstling of thy herd, nor shear the firstling of thy flock.
Deu 15:20 Thou shall eat it before LORD thy God year by year in the place which LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
Deu 15:21 And if it has any blemish, [as] lame or blind, any ill blemish whatever, thou shall not sacrifice it to LORD thy God.
Deu 15:22 Thou shall eat it within thy gates. The unclean [man] and the clean [man] alike, as the gazelle, and as the hart.
Deu 15:23 Only thou shall not eat the blood of it. Thou shall pour it out upon the ground as water.
Deu 16:1 ¶ Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to LORD thy God, for in the month of Abib LORD thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.
Deu 16:2 And thou shall sacrifice the Passover to LORD thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which LORD shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.
Deu 16:3 Thou shall eat no leavened bread with it. Seven days thou shall eat unleavened bread with it, even the bread of affliction, for thou came forth out of the land of Egypt in haste, that thou may remember the day when thou came forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
Deu 16:4 And there shall be no leaven seen with thee in all thy borders seven days. Neither shall any of the flesh, which thou sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.
Deu 16:5 Thou may not sacrifice the Passover within any of thy gates, which LORD thy God gives thee,
Deu 16:6 but at the place which LORD thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell in, there thou shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou came forth out of Egypt.
Deu 16:7 And thou shall roast and eat it in the place which LORD thy God shall choose, and thou shall turn in the morning, and go to thy tents.
Deu 16:8 Six days thou shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to LORD thy God. Thou shall do no work.
Deu 16:9 Thou shall number to thee seven weeks. From the time thou begin to put the sickle to the standing grain thou shall begin to number seven weeks.
Deu 16:10 And thou shall keep the feast of weeks to LORD thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering from thy hand, which thou shall give, according as LORD thy God blesses thee.
Deu 16:11 And thou shall rejoice before LORD thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in the midst of thee, in the place which LORD thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there,
Deu 16:12 and thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt. And thou shall observe and do these statutes.
Deu 16:13 Thou shall keep the feast of tabernacles seven days after thou have gathered in from thy threshing-floor and from thy winepress.
Deu 16:14 And thou shall rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates.
Deu 16:15 Seven days thou shall keep a feast to LORD thy God in the place which LORD shall choose, because LORD thy God will bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shall be altogether joyful.
Deu 16:16 Three times in a year all thy males shall appear before LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. And they shall not appear before LORD empty.
Deu 16:17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of LORD thy God which he has given thee.
Deu 16:18 ¶ Thou shall make judges and officers for thee in all thy gates, which LORD thy God gives thee, according to thy tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.
Deu 16:19 Thou shall not distort justice. Thou shall not respect persons, neither shall thou take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous.
Deu 16:20 Thou shall follow that which is altogether just, that thou may live, and inherit the land which LORD thy God gives thee.
Deu 16:21 Thou shall not plant for thee an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of LORD thy God, which thou shall make for thee.
Deu 16:22 Neither shall thou set up a pillar for thee, which LORD thy God hates.
Deu 17:1 ¶ Thou shall not sacrifice to LORD thy God an ox, or a sheep, in which is a blemish [or] anything bad, for that is an abomination to LORD thy God.
Deu 17:2 If there be found in the midst of thee, within any of thy gates which LORD thy God gives thee, man or woman, who does that which is evil in the sight of LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
Deu 17:3 and has gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, or the sun, or the moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded,
Deu 17:4 and it be told thee, and thou have heard of it, then shall thou inquire diligently. And, behold, if it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel,
Deu 17:5 then thou shall bring forth that man or that woman, who has done this evil thing, to thy gates, even the man or the woman, and thou shall stone them to death with stones.
Deu 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he who is to die be put to death. He shall not be put to death at the mouth of one witness.
Deu 17:7 The hand of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. So thou shall put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 17:8 ¶ If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates, then thou shall arise, and get thee up to the place which LORD thy God shall choose.
Deu 17:9 And thou shall come to the priests the Levites, and to the judge who shall be in those days, and thou shall inquire. And they shall show thee the sentence of judgment.
Deu 17:10 And thou shall do according to the tenor of the sentence which they shall show thee from that place which LORD shall choose. And thou shall observe to do according to all that they shall teach thee,
Deu 17:11 according to the tenor of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shall do. Thou shall not turn aside from the sentence, which they shall show thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.
Deu 17:12 And the man who does presumptuously, in not hearkening to the priest who stands to minister there before LORD thy God, or to the judge, even that man shall die, and thou shall put away the evil from Israel.
Deu 17:13 And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.
Deu 17:14 ¶ When thou have come to the land which LORD thy God gives thee, and shall possess it, and shall dwell in it, and shall say, I will set a king over me like all the nations that are round about me,
Deu 17:15 thou shall surely set him king over thee whom LORD thy God shall choose. Thou shall set a king over thee from among thy brothers. Thou may not put a foreigner over thee who is not thy brother.
Deu 17:16 Only he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he may multiply horses, inasmuch as LORD has said to you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
Deu 17:17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away. Neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
Deu 17:18 And it shall be, when he sits upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for him a copy of this law in a book, out of [it] before the priests the Levites,
Deu 17:19 and it shall be with him. And he shall read in it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them,
Deu 17:20 that his heart not be lifted up above his brothers, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left, to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his sons, in the midst of Israel.
Deu 18:1 ¶ The priests the Levites, [even] all the tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel. They shall eat the offerings of LORD made by fire, and his inheritance.
Deu 18:2 And they shall have no inheritance among their brothers. LORD is their inheritance as he has spoken to them.
Deu 18:3 And this shall be the priests’ due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep: that they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
Deu 18:4 The first-fruits of thy grain, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy sheep, thou shall give him.
Deu 18:5 For LORD thy God has chosen him out of all thy tribes to stand to minister in the name of LORD, him and his sons forever.
Deu 18:6 And if a Levite comes from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourns, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which LORD shall choose,
Deu 18:7 then he shall minister in the name of LORD his God, as all his brothers the Levites do who stand there before LORD.
Deu 18:8 They shall have like portions to eat, besides that which comes of the sale of his patrimony.
Deu 18:9 ¶ When thou have come into the land, which LORD thy God gives thee, thou shall not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations.
Deu 18:10 There shall not be found with thee anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, a psychic, he who practices augury, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer,
Deu 18:11 or a charmer, or a medium, or a spiritist, or a necromancer.
Deu 18:12 For whoever does these things is an abomination to LORD. And because of these abominations LORD thy God drives them out from before thee.
Deu 18:13 Thou shall be perfect with LORD thy God.
Deu 18:14 For these nations, that thou shall dispossess, hearken to those who practice augury, and to psychics. But as for thee, LORD thy God has not allowed thee to do so.
Deu 18:15 ¶ LORD thy God will raise up for thee a prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brothers, like me. Ye shall hearken to him
Deu 18:16 according to all that thou desired of LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die.
Deu 18:17 And LORD said to me, They have well said that which they have spoken.
Deu 18:18 I will raise up a prophet for them from among their brothers, like thee. And I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
Deu 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whoever will not hearken to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
Deu 18:20 But the prophet, who shall speak a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who shall speak in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.
Deu 18:21 And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word which LORD has not spoken?
Deu 18:22 When a prophet speaks in the name of LORD, if the thing does not follow, nor come to pass, that is the thing which LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. Thou shall not be afraid of him.
Deu 19:1 ¶ When LORD thy God shall cut off the nations, whose land LORD thy God gives thee, and thou succeed them, and dwell in their cities, and in their houses,
Deu 19:2 thou shall set apart three cities for thee in the midst of thy land, which LORD thy God gives thee to possess it.
Deu 19:3 Thou shall prepare for thee the way, and divide the borders of thy land, which LORD thy God causes thee to inherit, into three parts, that every manslayer may flee there.
Deu 19:4 And this is the case of the manslayer, who shall flee there and live: Whoever kills his neighbor unawares, and did not hate him in time past,
Deu 19:5 as when a man goes into the forest with his neighbor to hew wood, and his hand fetches a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slips from the helve, and lands upon his neighbor, so that he dies, he shall flee to one of these cities and live.
Deu 19:6 Lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally, whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he did not hate him in time past.
Deu 19:7 Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shall set apart three cities for thee.
Deu 19:8 And if LORD thy God enlarge thy border, as he has sworn to thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give to thy fathers,
Deu 19:9 if thou shall keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love LORD thy God, and to walk ever in his ways, then shall thou add three more cities for thee, besides these three,
Deu 19:10 that innocent blood not be shed in the midst of thy land, which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance, and so blood be upon thee.
Deu 19:11 But if any man hates his neighbor, and lies in wait for him, and rises up against him, and smites him mortally so that he dies, and he flees into one of these cities,
Deu 19:12 then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him from there, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
Deu 19:13 Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shall put away the innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with thee.
Deu 19:14 ¶ Thou shall not remove thy neighbor’s landmark, which they of old time have set, in thine inheritance which thou shall inherit, in the land that LORD thy God gives thee to possess it.
Deu 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins. At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.
Deu 19:16 If an unrighteous witness rises up against any man to testify against him of wrong-doing,
Deu 19:17 then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before LORD, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days,
Deu 19:18 and the judges shall make diligent inquiry. And, behold, if the witness is a false witness, and has testified falsely against his brother,
Deu 19:19 then ye shall do to him, as he had thought to do to his brother. So shall thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 19:20 And those who remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in the midst of thee.
Deu 19:21 And thine eyes shall not pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
Deu 20:1 ¶ When thou go forth to battle against thine enemies, and see horses, and chariots, [and] a people more than thou, thou shall not be afraid of them, for LORD thy God is with thee, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
Deu 20:2 And it shall be, when ye draw near to the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak to the people,
Deu 20:3 and shall say to them, Hear, O Israel, ye draw near this day to battle against your enemies. Let not your heart faint. Fear not, nor tremble, neither be ye frightened at them.
Deu 20:4 For LORD your God is he who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
Deu 20:5 And the officers shall speak to the people, saying, What man is there who has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it.
Deu 20:6 And what man is there who has planted a vineyard, and has not used the fruit of it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man use the fruit of it.
Deu 20:7 And what man is there who has betrothed a wife, and has not taken her? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man take her.
Deu 20:8 And the officers shall speak further to the people, and they shall say, What man is there who is fearful and faint-hearted? Let him go and return to his house, lest his brother’s heart melt as his heart.
Deu 20:9 And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking to the people, that they shall appoint captains of armies at the head of the people.
Deu 20:10 ¶ When thou draw near to a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace to it.
Deu 20:11 And it shall be, if it makes to thee an answer of peace, and opens to thee, then it shall be, that all the people that are found in it shall become tributary to thee, and shall serve thee.
Deu 20:12 And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shall besiege it.
Deu 20:13 And when LORD thy God delivers it into thy hand, thou shall smite every male of it with the edge of the sword,
Deu 20:14 but the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil of it, thou shall take for a prey to thyself. And thou shall eat the spoil of thine enemies, which LORD thy God has given thee.
Deu 20:15 Thus thou shall do to all the cities which are very far off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
Deu 20:16 But of the cities of these peoples, that LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance, thou shall save alive nothing that breathes,
Deu 20:17 but thou shall utterly destroy them—the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—as LORD thy God has commanded thee,
Deu 20:18 that they not teach you to do after all their abominations, which they have done to their gods, so ye would sin against LORD your God.
Deu 20:19 When thou shall besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, thou shall not destroy the trees of it by wielding an axe against them, for thou may eat of them. And thou shall not cut them down, for is the tree of the field a man, that it should be besieged by thee?
Deu 20:20 Only the trees of which thou know that they are not trees for food, thou shall destroy and cut them down. And thou shall build bulwarks against the city that makes war with thee, until it falls.
Deu 21:1 ¶ If a man is found slain in the land which LORD thy God gives thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it not be known who has smitten him,
Deu 21:2 then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth. And they shall measure to the cities which are round about him who is slain,
Deu 21:3 and it shall be, that the city which is nearest to the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which has not been worked with, and which has not drawn in the yoke,
Deu 21:4 and the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer to a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer’s neck there in the valley.
Deu 21:5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near, for LORD thy God has chosen them to minister to him, and to bless in the name of LORD, and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be.
Deu 21:6 And all the elders of that city, who are nearest to the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley,
Deu 21:7 and they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
Deu 21:8 Forgive, O LORD, thy people Israel whom thou have redeemed, and allow no innocent blood [to remain] in the midst of thy people Israel. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
Deu 21:9 So shall thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee when thou shall do that which is right in the eyes of LORD.
Deu 21:10 ¶ When thou go forth to battle against thine enemies, and LORD thy God delivers them into thy hands, and thou carry them away captive,
Deu 21:11 and see among the captives a beautiful woman, and thou have a desire for her, and would take her to thee to wife,
Deu 21:12 then thou shall bring her home to thy house. And she shall shave her head, and pare her nails,
Deu 21:13 and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month. And after that thou shall go in to her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
Deu 21:14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shall let her go where she will, but thou shall not sell her at all for money. Thou shall not deal with her as a slave, because thou have humbled her.
Deu 21:15 ¶ If a man has two wives, the one beloved, and the other regarded inferior, and they have borne him sons, both the beloved and the one regarded inferior, and if the firstborn son be hers who was regarded inferior,
Deu 21:16 then it shall be, in the day that he causes his sons to inherit that which he has, that he may not make the son of the beloved the firstborn before the son of the one regarded inferior, who is the firstborn.
Deu 21:17 But he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the one regarded inferior, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength. The right of the firstborn is his.
Deu 21:18 ¶ If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not hearken to them,
Deu 21:19 then his father and his mother shall lay hold on him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place.
Deu 21:20 And they shall say to the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice. He is a glutton, and a drunkard.
Deu 21:21 And all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones. So thou shall put away the evil from the midst of thee, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
Deu 21:22 And if a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree,
Deu 21:23 his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shall surely bury him the same day, for he who is hanged is accursed of God, that thou not defile thy land which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance.
Deu 22:1 ¶ Thou shall not see thy brother’s ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them. Thou shall surely bring them again to thy brother.
Deu 22:2 And if thy brother be not near to thee, or if thou do not know him, then thou shall bring it home to thy house, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seeks after it, and thou shall restore it to him.
Deu 22:3 And so shall thou do with his donkey, and so shall thou do with his garment, and so shall thou do with every lost thing of thy brother’s, which he has lost, and thou have found. Thou may not hide thyself.
Deu 22:4 Thou shall not see thy brother’s donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide thyself from them. Thou shall surely help him to lift them up again.
Deu 22:5 ¶ A woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for whoever does these things is an abomination to LORD thy God.
Deu 22:6 If a bird’s nest chance to be before thee in the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs, thou shall not take the dam with the young.
Deu 22:7 Thou shall surely let the dam go, but the young thou may take to thyself, that it may be well with thee, and that thou may prolong thy days.
Deu 22:8 When thou build a new house, then thou shall make a guard rail for thy roof, that thou not bring blood upon thy house, if any man falls from there.
Deu 22:9 Thou shall not sow thy vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited: the seed which thou have sown, and the increase of the vineyard.
Deu 22:10 Thou shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
Deu 22:11 Thou shall not wear a mingled stuff, wool and linen together.
Deu 22:12 Thou shall make for thee fringes upon the four borders of thy clothing, with which thou cover thyself.
Deu 22:13 ¶ If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, and dislikes her,
Deu 22:14 and charges her with shameful things, and brings up an evil name upon her, and says, I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I did not find in her the tokens of virginity,
Deu 22:15 then the father of the damsel, and her mother, shall take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel’s virginity to the elders of the city in the gate.
Deu 22:16 And the damsel’s father shall say to the elders, I gave my daughter to this man to wife, and he dislikes her.
Deu 22:17 And, lo, he has charged her with shameful things, saying, I did not find in thy daughter the tokens of virginity, and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the garment before the elders of the city.
Deu 22:18 And the elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him,
Deu 22:19 and they shall fine him a hundred [shekels] of silver, and give them to the father of the damsel, because he has brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel, and she shall be his wife. He may not put her away all his days.
Deu 22:20 But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the damsel,
Deu 22:21 then they shall bring the damsel out to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has wrought folly in Israel, to play the harlot in her father’s house. So shall thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 22:22 If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman. So shall thou put away the evil from Israel.
Deu 22:23 If there be a damsel who is a virgin betrothed to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her,
Deu 22:24 then ye shall bring them both out to the gate of that city. And ye shall stone them to death with stones, the damsel, because she did not cry out, being in the city, and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor’s wife. So thou shall put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 22:25 But if the man finds the damsel who is betrothed in the field, and the man forces her, and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die,
Deu 22:26 but to the damsel thou shall do nothing. There is in the damsel no sin worthy of death. For as when a man rises against his neighbor, and kills him, even so is this matter,
Deu 22:27 for he found her in the field, the betrothed damsel cried out, and there was none to save her.
Deu 22:28 If a man finds a damsel who is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and lays hold on her, and lies with her, and they be found,
Deu 22:29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the damsel’s father fifty [shekels] of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has humbled her. He may not put her away all his days.
Deu 22:30 A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.
Deu 23:1 ¶ He who is wounded in the testicles, or has his private part cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of LORD.
Deu 23:2 A bastard shall not enter into the assembly of LORD, even to the tenth generation none of his shall enter into the assembly of LORD.
Deu 23:3 An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of LORD, even to the tenth generation none belonging to them shall enter into the assembly of LORD forever,
Deu 23:4 because they met you not with bread and with water on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
Deu 23:5 Nevertheless LORD thy God would not hearken to Balaam, but LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing to thee, because LORD thy God loved thee.
Deu 23:6 Thou shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days forever.
Deu 23:7 Thou shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is thy brother. Thou shall not abhor an Egyptian, because thou were a sojourner in his land.
Deu 23:8 The sons of the third generation who are born to them shall enter into the assembly of LORD.
Deu 23:9 ¶ When the army goes forth against thine enemies, then thou shall keep thee from every evil thing.
Deu 23:10 If there be among you any man, who is not clean by reason of an accident by night, then he shall go abroad out of the camp. He shall not come inside the camp.
Deu 23:11 But it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall bathe himself in water, and when the sun is down, he shall come inside the camp.
Deu 23:12 Thou shall have a place also outside the camp, where thou shall go forth abroad.
Deu 23:13 And thou shall have a paddle among thy weapons, and it shall be, when thou sit down abroad, thou shall dig with it, and shall turn back and cover that which comes from thee.
Deu 23:14 For LORD thy God walks in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee. Therefore thy camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.
Deu 23:15 ¶ Thou shall not deliver to his master a servant who is escaped from his master to thee.
Deu 23:16 He shall dwell with thee, in the midst of thee, in the place which he shall choose within one of thy gates, where it pleases him best. Thou shall not oppress him.
Deu 23:17 There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
Deu 23:18 Thou shall not bring the hire of a harlot, or the wages of a dog, into the house of LORD thy God for any vow, for even both these are an abomination to LORD thy God.
Deu 23:19 Thou shall not lend upon interest to thy brother: interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent upon interest.
Deu 23:20 To a foreigner thou may lend upon interest, but to thy brother thou shall not lend upon interest, that LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou put thy hand to, in the land where thou go in to possess it.
Deu 23:21 When thou shall vow a vow to LORD thy God, thou shall not be slack to pay it. For LORD thy God will surely require it of thee, and it would be sin in thee.
Deu 23:22 But if thou shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
Deu 23:23 That which has gone out of thy lips thou shall observe and do, according as thou have vowed to LORD thy God, a freewill offering, which thou have promised with thy mouth.
Deu 23:24 When thou come into thy neighbor’s vineyard, then thou may eat thy fill of grapes at thine own pleasure, but thou shall not put any in thy vessel.
Deu 23:25 When thou come into thy neighbor’s standing grain, then thou may pluck the ears with thy hand, but thou shall not move a sickle to thy neighbor’s standing grain.
Deu 24:1 ¶ When a man takes a wife, and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favor in his eyes, because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
Deu 24:2 And when she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s.
Deu 24:3 And if the latter husband dislikes her, and writes her a bill of divorcement, and gives it in her hand, and sends her out of his house, or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife,
Deu 24:4 her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled. For that is abomination before LORD, and thou shall not cause the land to sin, which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance.
Deu 24:5 ¶ When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be charged with any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
Deu 24:6 No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone to pledge, for he takes life to pledge.
Deu 24:7 If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the sons of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So shall thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
Deu 24:8 Take heed in the disease of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you. As I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.
Deu 24:9 Remember what LORD thy God did to Miriam by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt.
Deu 24:10 When thou do lend thy neighbor any manner of loan, thou shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge.
Deu 24:11 Thou shall stand outside, and the man to whom thou lend shall bring forth the pledge outside to thee.
Deu 24:12 And if he is a poor man, thou shall not sleep with his pledge.
Deu 24:13 Thou shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment, and bless thee. And it shall be righteousness to thee before LORD thy God.
Deu 24:14 ¶ Thou shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brothers, or of thy sojourners that are in thy land within thy gates.
Deu 24:15 Thou shall give him his hire in his day, neither shall the sun go down upon it, for he is poor, and sets his heart upon it, lest he cry against thee to LORD, and it be sin to thee.
Deu 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the sons, neither shall the sons be put to death for the fathers. Every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
Deu 24:17 Thou shall not distort the justice [due] to the sojourner, [or] to the fatherless, nor take the widow’s raiment to pledge,
Deu 24:18 but thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in Egypt, and LORD thy God redeemed thee from there. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Deu 24:19 When thou reap thy harvest in thy field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, thou shall not go again to fetch it. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
Deu 24:20 When thou beat thine olive tree, thou shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Deu 24:21 When thou gather of thy vineyard, thou shall not glean it behind thee. It shall be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Deu 24:22 And thou shall remember that thou were a bondman in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Deu 25:1 ¶ If there be a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, and [they] judge them, then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the iniquitous.
Deu 25:2 And it shall be, if the iniquitous man is deserving to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his iniquity, by number.
Deu 25:3 He may give him forty stripes. He shall not exceed, lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem debased to thee.
Deu 25:4 Thou shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out [the grain].
Deu 25:5 ¶ If brothers dwell together, and one of them dies, and has no son, the wife of the dead man shall not be married outside to a stranger. Her husband’s brother shall go in to her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
Deu 25:6 And it shall be, that the firstborn who she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
Deu 25:7 And if the man does not want to take his brother’s wife, then his brother’s wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel. He will not perform the duty of a husband’s brother to me.
Deu 25:8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him. And if he stands, and says, I do not want to take her,
Deu 25:9 then his brother’s wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face. And she shall answer and say, So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother’s house.
Deu 25:10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him who has his shoe loosed.
Deu 25:11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who smites him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the privates,
Deu 25:12 then thou shall cut off her hand. Thine eye shall have no pity.
Deu 25:13 ¶ Thou shall not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
Deu 25:14 Thou shall not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small.
Deu 25:15 A perfect and just weight thou shall have, a perfect and just measure thou shall have, that thy days may be long in the land which LORD thy God gives thee.
Deu 25:16 For all who do such things, [even] all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to LORD thy God.
Deu 25:17 Remember what Amalek did to thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt,
Deu 25:18 how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all who were feeble behind thee, when thou were faint and weary, and he feared not God.
Deu 25:19 Therefore it shall be, when LORD thy God has given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. Thou shall not forget.
Deu 26:1 ¶ And it shall be, when thou have come in to the land which LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell in it,
Deu 26:2 that thou shall take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which thou shall bring in from thy land that LORD thy God gives thee, and thou shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which LORD thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.
Deu 26:3 And thou shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and say to him, I profess this day to LORD thy God, that I have come to the land which LORD swore to our fathers to give us.
Deu 26:4 And the priest shall take the basket out of thy hand, and set it down before the altar of LORD thy God.
Deu 26:5 And thou shall answer and say before LORD thy God, My father was a Syrian ready to perish, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number. And he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.
Deu 26:6 And the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage.
Deu 26:7 And we cried to LORD, the God of our fathers, and LORD heard our voice, and saw our affliction, and our toil, and our oppression.
Deu 26:8 And LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders.
Deu 26:9 And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 26:10 And now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which thou, O LORD, have given me. And thou shall set it down before LORD thy God, and worship before LORD thy God.
Deu 26:11 And thou shall rejoice in all the good which LORD thy God has given to thee, and to thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the sojourner who is in the midst of thee.
Deu 26:12 ¶ When thou have made an end of tithing all the tithe of thine increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then thou shall give it to the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled.
Deu 26:13 And thou shall say before LORD thy God, I have put away the hallowed things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandment which thou have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
Deu 26:14 I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put away from it, being unclean, nor given of it for the dead. I have hearkened to the voice of LORD my God. I have done according to all that thou have commanded me.
Deu 26:15 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy people Israel, and the ground which thou have given us, as thou swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 26:16 ¶ This day LORD thy God commands thee to do these statutes and ordinances. Thou shall therefore keep and do them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
Deu 26:17 Thou have avouched LORD this day to be thy God, and that thou would walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and hearken to his voice.
Deu 26:18 And LORD has avouched thee this day to be a people for his own possession, as he has promised thee, and that thou should keep all his commandments,
Deu 26:19 and to make thee high above all nations that he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor, and that thou may be a holy people to LORD thy God, as he has spoken.
Deu 27:1 ¶ And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep all the commandment which I command you this day.
Deu 27:2 And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over the Jordan to the land which LORD thy God gives thee, that thou shall set up for thee great stones, and plaster them with plaster.
Deu 27:3 And thou shall write upon them all the words of this law when thou have passed over, that thou may go in to the land which LORD thy God gives thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as LORD, the God of thy fathers, has promised thee.
Deu 27:4 And it shall be, when ye have passed over the Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shall plaster them with plaster.
Deu 27:5 And there thou shall build an altar to LORD thy God, an altar of stones. Thou shall lift up no iron upon them.
Deu 27:6 Thou shall build the altar of LORD thy God of unhewn stones. And thou shall offer burnt offerings on it to LORD thy God.
Deu 27:7 And thou shall sacrifice peace offerings, and shall eat there, and thou shall rejoice before LORD thy God.
Deu 27:8 And thou shall write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.
Deu 27:9 And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Keep silence, and hearken, O Israel. This day thou have become the people of LORD thy God.
Deu 27:10 Thou shall therefore obey the voice of LORD thy God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
Deu 27:11 ¶ And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,
Deu 27:12 These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye have passed over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.
Deu 27:13 And these shall stand upon mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
Deu 27:14 And the Levites shall answer, and say to all the men of Israel with a loud voice,
Deu 27:15 Cursed be the man who makes
