Deuteronomy 4

1

Now therefore hearkenh8085h8798, O Israelh3478, unto the statutesh2706 and unto the judgmentsh4941, which I teachh3925h8764 you, for to doh6213h8800 them , that ye may liveh2421h8799, and go inh935h8804 and possessh3423h8804 the landh776 which the LORDh3068 Godh430 of your fathersh1 givethh5414h8802 you.

2

Ye shall not addh3254h8686 unto the wordh1697 which I commandh6680h8764 you, neither shall ye diminishh1639h8799 ought from it, that ye may keeph8104h8800 the commandmentsh4687 of the LORDh3068 your Godh430 which I commandh6680h8764 you.

3

Your eyesh5869 have seenh7200h8802 what the LORDh3068 didh6213h8804 because of Baalpeorh1187: for all the menh376 that followedh310h1980h8804 Baalpeorh1187, the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 hath destroyedh8045h8689 them from amongh7130 you.

4

But ye that did cleaveh1695 unto the LORDh3068 your Godh430 are aliveh2416 every one of you this dayh3117.

5

Beholdh7200h8798, I have taughth3925h8765 you statutesh2706 and judgmentsh4941, even ash834 the LORDh3068 my Godh430 commandedh6680h8765 me, that ye should doh6213h8800 so inh7130 the landh776 whither ye goh935h8802 to possessh3423h8800 it.

6

Keeph8104h8804 therefore and doh6213h8804 them ; for this is your wisdomh2451 and your understandingh998 in the sighth5869 of the nationsh5971, which shall hearh8085h8799 all these statutesh2706, and sayh559h8804, Surely this greath1419 nationh1471 is a wiseh2450 and understandingh995h8737 peopleh5971.

7

For what nationh1471 is there so greath1419, who hath Godh430 so nighh7138 unto them, as the LORDh3068 our Godh430 is in all things that we callh7121h8800 upon him for ?

8

And what nationh1471 is there so greath1419, that hath statutesh2706 and judgmentsh4941 so righteoush6662 as all this lawh8451, which I seth5414h8802 beforeh6440 you this dayh3117?

9

Only take heedh8104h8734 to thyself, and keeph8104h8798 thy soulh5315 diligentlyh3966, lest thou forgeth7911h8799 the thingsh1697 which thine eyesh5869 have seenh7200h8804, and lest they departh5493h8799 from thy hearth3824 all the daysh3117 of thy lifeh2416: but teachh3045h8689 them thy sonsh1121, and thy sonsh1121' sonsh1121;

10

Specially the dayh3117 that thou stoodesth5975h8804 beforeh6440 the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 in Horebh2722, when the LORDh3068 saidh559h8800 unto me, Gatherh6950 me the peopleh5971 togetherh6950h8685, and I will make them hearh8085h8686 my wordsh1697, that they may learnh3925h8799 to fearh3372h8800 me all the daysh3117 that they shall liveh2416 upon the earthh127, and that they may teachh3925h8762 their childrenh1121.

11

And ye came nearh7126h8799 and stoodh5975h8799 under the mountainh2022; and the mountainh2022 burnedh1197h8802 with fireh784 unto the midsth3820 of heavenh8064, with darknessh6205, cloudsh6051, and thick darknessh2822. midst: Heb. heart

12

And the LORDh3068 spakeh1696h8762 unto you out of the midsth8432 of the fireh784: ye heardh8085h8802 the voiceh6963 of the wordsh1697, but sawh7200h8802 no similitudeh8544; onlyh2108 ye heard a voiceh6963. only...: Heb. save a voice

13

And he declaredh5046h8686 unto you his covenanth1285, which he commandedh6680h8765 you to performh6213h8800, even tenh6235 commandmentsh1697; and he wroteh3789h8799 them upon twoh8147 tablesh3871 of stoneh68.

14

And the LORDh3068 commandedh6680h8765 me at that timeh6256 to teachh3925h8763 you statutesh2706 and judgmentsh4941, that ye might doh6213h8800 them in the landh776 whither ye go overh5674h8802 to possessh3423h8800 it.

15

Take ye therefore goodh3966 heedh8104h8738 unto yourselvesh5315; for ye sawh7200h8804 no manner of similitudeh8544 on the dayh3117 that the LORDh3068 spakeh1696h8763 unto you in Horebh2722 out of the midsth8432 of the fireh784:

16

Lest ye corrupth7843h8686 yourselves , and makeh6213h8804 you a graven imageh6459, the similitudeh8544 of any figureh5566, the likenessh8403 of maleh2145 or femaleh5347,

17

The likenessh8403 of any beasth929 that is on the earthh776, the likenessh8403 of any wingedh3671 fowlh6833 that fliethh5774h8799 in the airh8064,

18

The likenessh8403 of any thing that creepethh7430h8802 on the groundh127, the likenessh8403 of any fishh1710 that is in the watersh4325 beneathh8478 the earthh776:

19

And lest thou lift uph5375h8799 thine eyesh5869 unto heavenh8064, and when thou seesth7200h8804 the sunh8121, and the moonh3394, and the starsh3556, even all the hosth6635 of heavenh8064, shouldest be drivenh5080h8738 to worshiph7812h8694 them, and serveh5647h8804 them, which the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 hath dividedh2505h8804 unto all nationsh5971 under the whole heavenh8064. divided: or, imparted

20

But the LORDh3068 hath takenh3947h8804 you, and brought you forthh3318h8686 out of the ironh1270 furnaceh3564, even out of Egypth4714, to be unto him a peopleh5971 of inheritanceh5159, as ye are this dayh3117.

21

Furthermore the LORDh3068 was angryh599h8694 with me for your sakesh1697, and swareh7650h8735 that I should not go overh5674h8800 Jordanh3383, and that I should not goh935h8800 in unto that goodh2896 landh776, which the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 givethh5414h8802 thee for an inheritanceh5159:

22

But I must dieh4191h8801 in this landh776, I must not go overh5674h8802 Jordanh3383: but ye shall go overh5674h8802, and possessh3423h8804 that goodh2896 landh776.

23

Take heedh8104h8734 unto yourselves, lest ye forgeth7911h8799 the covenanth1285 of the LORDh3068 your Godh430, which he madeh3772h8804 with you, and makeh6213h8804 you a graven imageh6459, or the likenessh8544 of anyh3605 thing , which the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 hath forbiddenh6680h8765 thee.

24

For the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 is a consumingh398h8802 fireh784, even a jealoush7067 Godh410.

25

When thou shalt begeth3205h8686 childrenh1121, and children'sh1121 childrenh1121, and ye shall have remained longh3462h8738 in the landh776, and shall corrupth7843h8689 yourselves , and makeh6213h8804 a graven imageh6459, or the likenessh8544 of any thing , and shall doh6213h8804 evilh7451 in the sighth5869 of the LORDh3068 thy Godh430, to provoke him to angerh3707h8687:

26

I callh5749 heavenh8064 and earthh776 to witnessh5749h8689 against you this dayh3117, that ye shall soonh4118 utterlyh6h8800 perishh6h8799 from off the landh776 whereunto ye go overh5674h8802 Jordanh3383 to possessh3423h8800 it; ye shall not prolongh748h8686 your daysh3117 upon it, but shall utterlyh8045h8736 be destroyedh8045h8735.

27

And the LORDh3068 shall scatterh6327h8689 you among the nationsh5971, and ye shall be lefth7604h8738 fewh4962 in numberh4557 among the heathenh1471, whither the LORDh3068 shall leadh5090h8762 you.

28

And there ye shall serveh5647h8804 godsh430, the workh4639 of men'sh120 handsh3027, woodh6086 and stoneh68, which neither seeh7200h8799, nor hearh8085h8799, nor eath398h8799, nor smellh7306h8686.

29

But if from thence thou shalt seekh1245h8765 the LORDh3068 thy Godh430, thou shalt findh4672h8804 him , if thou seekh1875h8799 him with all thy hearth3824 and with all thy soulh5315.

30

When thou art in tribulationh6862, and all these thingsh1697 are comeh4672h8804 upon thee, even in the latterh319 daysh3117, if thou turnh7725h8804 to the LORDh3068 thy Godh430, and shalt be obedienth8085h8804 unto his voiceh6963; are...: Heb. have found thee

31

(For the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 is a mercifulh7349 Godh410;) he will not forsakeh7503h8686 thee, neither destroyh7843h8686 thee, nor forgeth7911h8799 the covenanth1285 of thy fathersh1 which he swareh7650h8738 unto them.

32

For askh7592h8798 now of the daysh3117 that are pasth7223, which wereh1961h8738 beforeh6440 thee, since the dayh3117 that Godh430 createdh1254h8804 manh120 upon the earthh776, and ask from the one sideh7097 of heavenh8064 unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this greath1419 thingh1697 is , or hath been heardh8085h8738 like it?

33

Did ever peopleh5971 hearh8085h8804 the voiceh6963 of Godh430 speaking outh1696h8764 of the midsth8432 of the fireh784, as thou hast heardh8085h8804, and liveh2421h8799?

34

Or hath Godh430 assayedh5254h8765 to goh935h8800 and takeh3947h8800 him a nationh1471 from the midsth7130 of another nationh1471, by temptationsh4531, by signsh226, and by wondersh4159, and by warh4421, and by a mightyh2389 handh3027, and by a stretched outh5186h8803 armh2220, and by greath1419 terrorsh4172, according to all that the LORDh3068 your Godh430 didh6213h8804 for you in Egypth4714 before your eyesh5869?

35

Unto thee it was shewedh7200h8717, that thou mightest knowh3045h8800 that the LORDh3068 he is Godh430; there is none elseh5750 beside himh905.

36

Out of heavenh8064 he made thee to hearh8085h8689 his voiceh6963, that he might instructh3256h8763 thee: and upon earthh776 he shewedh7200h8689 thee his greath1419 fireh784; and thou heardesth8085h8804 his wordsh1697 out of the midsth8432 of the fireh784.

37

And because he lovedh157h8804 thy fathersh1, therefore he choseh977h8799 their seedh2233 afterh310 them, and brought thee outh3318h8686 in his sighth6440 with his mightyh1419 powerh3581 out of Egypth4714;

38

To drive outh3423h8687 nationsh1471 from beforeh6440 thee greaterh1419 and mightierh6099 than thou art , to bringh935h8687 thee in, to giveh5414h8800 thee their landh776 for an inheritanceh5159, as it is this dayh3117.

39

Knowh3045h8804 therefore this dayh3117, and considerh7725h8689 it in thine hearth3824, that the LORDh3068 he is Godh430 in heavenh8064 aboveh4605, and upon the earthh776 beneath: there is none else.

40

Thou shalt keeph8104h8804 therefore his statutesh2706, and his commandmentsh4687, which I commandh6680h8764 thee this dayh3117, that it may go wellh3190h8799 with thee, and with thy childrenh1121 afterh310 thee, and that thou mayest prolongh748h8686 thy daysh3117 upon the earthh127, which the LORDh3068 thy Godh430 givethh5414h8802 thee, for ever.

41

Then Mosesh4872 severedh914h8686 threeh7969 citiesh5892 on this sideh5676 Jordanh3383 toward the sunrisingh8121h4217;

42

That the slayerh7523h8802 might fleeh5127h8800 thither, which should killh7523h8799 his neighbourh7453 unawaresh1097h1847, and hatedh8130h8802 him not in timesh8543 pasth8032; and that fleeingh5127h8804 unto oneh259 of theseh411 citiesh5892 he might liveh2425h8804:

43

Namely , Bezerh1221 in the wildernessh4057, in the plainh4334 countryh776, of the Reubenitesh7206; and Ramothh7216 in Gileadh1568, of the Gaditesh1425; and Golanh1474 in Bashanh1316, of the Manassitesh4520.

44

And this is the lawh8451 which Mosesh4872 seth7760h8804 beforeh6440 the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478:

45

These are the testimoniesh5713, and the statutesh2706, and the judgmentsh4941, which Mosesh4872 spakeh1696h8765 unto the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478, after they came forthh3318h8800 out of Egypth4714,

46

On this sideh5676 Jordanh3383, in the valleyh1516 over againsth4136 Bethpeorh1047, in the landh776 of Sihonh5511 kingh4428 of the Amoritesh567, who dwelth3427h8802 at Heshbonh2809, whom Mosesh4872 and the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 smoteh5221h8689, after they were come forthh3318h8800 out of Egypth4714:

47

And they possessedh3423h8799 his landh776, and the landh776 of Ogh5747 kingh4428 of Bashanh1316, twoh8147 kingsh4428 of the Amoritesh567, which were on this sideh5676 Jordanh3383 toward the sunrisingh4217h8121;

48

From Aroerh6177, which is by the bankh8193 of the riverh5158 Arnonh769, even unto mounth2022 Sionh7865, which is Hermonh2768,

49

And all the plainh6160 on this sideh5676 Jordanh3383 eastwardh4217, even unto the seah3220 of the plainh6160, under the springsh794 of Pisgahh6449.
