 |
| Deuteronomy 31:1 |
|
And Moses went and spake these words unto all
Israel. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:2 |
|
And he said unto them, I am a hundred and twenty
years old this day; I can no more go out and come in: and Jehovah hath said unto
me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:3 |
|
Jehovah thy God, he will go over before thee;
he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt dispossess them:
and Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as Jehovah hath spoken. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:4 |
|
And Jehovah will do unto them as he did to Sihon
and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and unto their land; whom he destroyed.
|
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:5 |
|
And Jehovah will deliver them up before you,
and ye shall do unto them according unto all the commandment which I have commanded
you. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:6 |
|
Be strong and of good courage, fear not, nor
be affrighted at them: for Jehovah thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he
will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:7 |
|
And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto
him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of good courage: for thou shalt
go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers
to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:8 |
|
And Jehovah, he it is that doth go before thee;
he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither
be dismayed. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:9 |
|
And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto
the priests the sons of Levi, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and
unto all the elders of Israel. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:10 |
|
And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end
of every seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the feast of
tabernacles, |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:11 |
|
when all Israel is come to appear before Jehovah
thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all
Israel in their hearing. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:12 |
|
Assemble the people, the men and the women and
the little ones, and thy sojourner that is within thy gates, that they may hear,
and that they may learn, and fear Jehovah your God, and observe to do all the
words of this law; |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:13 |
|
and that their children, who have not known,
may hear, and learn to fear Jehovah your God, as long as ye live in the land whither
ye go over the Jordan to possess it. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:14 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thy days
approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tent of
meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented
themselves in the tent of meeting. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:15 |
|
And Jehovah appeared in the Tent in a pillar
of cloud: and the pillar of cloud stood over the door of the Tent. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:16 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt
sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and play the harlot after
the strange gods of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake
me, and break my covenant which I have made with them. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:17 |
|
Then my anger shall be kindled against them
in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they
shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come upon them; so that they
will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us because our God is not
among us? |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:18 |
|
And I will surely hide my face in that day for
all the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other
gods. |
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:19 |
|
Now therefore write ye this song for you, and
teach thou it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may
be a witness for me against the children of Israel. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:20 |
|
For when I shall have brought them into the
land which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall
have eaten and filled themselves, and waxed fat; then will they turn unto other
gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant. |
| |
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:21 |
|
And it shall come to pass, when many evils and
troubles are come upon them, that this song shall testify before them as a witness;
for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their
imagination which they frame this day, before I have brought them into the land
which I sware. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:22 |
|
So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught
it the children of Israel. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:23 |
|
And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge,
and said, Be strong and of good courage; for thou shalt bring the children of
Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:24 |
|
And it came to pass, when Moses had made an
end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished, |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:25 |
|
that Moses commanded the Levites, that bare
the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:26 |
|
Take this book of the law, and put it by the
side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, that it may be there for
a witness against thee. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:27 |
|
For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck:
behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against
Jehovah; and how much more after my death? |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:28 |
|
Assemble unto me all the elders of your tribes,
and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven
and earth to witness against them. |
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:29 |
|
For I know that after my death ye will utterly
corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and
evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do that which is evil
in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
|
|
|
|
|
| Deuteronomy 31:30 |
|
And Moses spake in the ears of all the assembly
of Israel the words of this song, until they were finished. |
