Chapter 1
1 Israel's History after the Exodus
These 428 are the words 1697 which 834 Moses 4872 spoke 1696 to all 3605 Israel 3478 across 5676 the Jordan 3383 in the wilderness 4057, in the Arabah 6160 opposite 4136 Suph 5489, between 996 Paran 6290 and Tophel 8603 and Laban 3837 and Hazeroth 2698 and Dizahab 1774.
2 It is eleven days' 3117 {journey} from Horeb 2722 by the way 1870 of Mount 2022 Seir 8165 to Kadesh-barnea 6947.
3 In the fortieth 705 year 8141, on the first 259 {day} of the eleventh month 2320, Moses 4872 spoke 1696 to the children 1121 of Israel 3478, according to all 3605 that the LORD 3068 had commanded 6680 him {to give} to them,
4 after 310 he had defeated 5221 Sihon 5511 the king 4428 of the Amorites 567, who 834 lived 3427 in Heshbon 2809, and Og 5747 the king 4428 of Bashan 1316, who 834 lived 3427 in Ashtaroth 6252 and Edrei 154.
5 Across 5676 the Jordan 3383 in the land 776 of Moab 4124, Moses 4872 undertook 2974 to expound 874 this 2088 law 8451, saying 559,
6 ¶ "The LORD 3068 our God 430 spoke 1696 to us at Horeb 2722, saying 559, 'You have stayed 3427 long 7227 enough 7227 at this 2088 mountain 2022.
7 'Turn 6437 and set 5265 your journey 5265, and go 935 to the hill 2022 country 2022 of the Amorites 567, and to all 3605 their neighbors 7934 in the Arabah 6160, in the hill 2022 country 2022 and in the lowland 8219 and in the Negev 5045 and by the seacoast, the land 776 of the Canaanites 3669, and Lebanon 3844, as far 5704 as the great 1419 river 5104, the river 5104 Euphrates 6578.
8 'See 7200, I have placed 5414 the land 776 before 6440 you; go 935 in and possess 3423 the land 776 which 834 the LORD 3068 swore 7650 to give 5414 to your fathers 1, to Abraham 85, to Isaac 3327, and to Jacob 3290, to them and their descendants 2233 after 310 them.'
9 ¶ "I spoke 559 to you at that time 6256, saying 559, 'I am not able 3201 to bear 5375 {the burden} of you alone 905.
10 'The LORD 3068 your God 430 has multiplied 7235 you, and behold 2009, you are this day 3117 like the stars 3556 of heaven 8064 in number 7230.
11 'May the LORD 3068, the God 430 of your fathers 1, increase 3254 you a thousand-fold more 3254 than you are and bless 1288 you, just 3512 as He has promised 1696 you!
12 'How 351 can I alone 905 bear 5375 the load 2960 and burden 4853 of you and your strife 7379?
13 'Choose 3051 wise 2450 and discerning 995 and experienced 3045 men 376 from your tribes 7626, and I will appoint 7760 them as your heads 7218.'
14 "You answered 6030 me and said 559, 'The thing 1697 which 834 you have said 1696 to do 6213 is good 2896.'
15 "So I took 3947 the heads 7218 of your tribes 7626, wise 2450 and experienced 3045 men 376, and appointed 5414 them heads 7218 over 5921 you, leaders 8269 of thousands 505 and of hundreds 3967, of fifties 2572 and of tens 6235, and officers 7860 for your tribes 7626.
16 ¶ "Then I charged 6680 your judges 8199 at that time 6256, saying 559, 'Hear 8085 {the cases} between 996 your fellow 251 countrymen 251, and judge 8199 righteously 6664 between 996 a man 376 and his fellow 251 countryman 251, or the alien 1616 who is with him.
17 'You shall not show 5234 partiality in judgment 4941; you shall hear 8085 the small 6996 and the great 1419 alike. You shall not fear 1481 man 376, for the judgment 4941 is God's 430. The case 1697 that is too 4480 hard 7185 for you, you shall bring 7126 to me, and I will hear 8085 it.'
18 "I commanded 6680 you at that time 6256 all 3605 the things 1697 that you should do 6213.
19 ¶ "Then we set 5265 out from Horeb 2722, and went 1980 through all 3605 that great 1419 and terrible 3372 wilderness 4057 which 834 you saw 7200 on the way 1870 to the hill 2022 country 2022 of the Amorites 567, just 3512 as the LORD 3068 our God 430 had commanded 6680 us; and we came 935 to Kadesh-barnea 6947.
20 "I said 559 to you, 'You have come 935 to the hill 2022 country 2022 of the Amorites 567 which 834 the LORD 3068 our God 430 is about to give 5414 us.
21 'See 7200, the LORD 3068 your God 430 has placed 5414 the land 776 before 6440 you; go 5927 up, take 3423 possession 3423, as the LORD 3068, the God 430 of your fathers 1, has spoken 1696 to you. Do not fear 3372 or be dismayed 2865.'
22 ¶ "Then all 3605 of you approached 7126 me and said 559, 'Let us send 7971 men 376 before 6440 us, that they may search 2658 out the land 776 for us, and bring 7725 back 7725 to us word 1697 of the way 1870 by which 834 we should go 5927 up and the cities 5892 which 834 we shall enter 935.'
23 "The thing 1697 pleased me and I took 3947 twelve of your men 376, one 259 man 376 for each tribe 7626.
24 "They turned 6437 and went 5927 up into the hill 2022 country 2022, and came 935 to the valley 5158 of Eshcol 812 and spied 7270 it out.
25 "Then they took 3947 {some} of the fruit 6529 of the land 776 in their hands 3027 and brought 3381 it down 3381 to us; and they brought 7725 us back 7725 a report 1697 and said 559, 'It is a good 2896 land 776 which 834 the LORD 3068 our God 430 is about to give 5414 us.'
26 ¶ "Yet you were not willing 14 to go 5927 up, but rebelled 4784 against 854 the command 6310 of the LORD 3068 your God 430;
27 and you grumbled 7279 in your tents 168 and said 559, 'Because the LORD 3068 hates 8135 us, He has brought 3318 us out of the land 776 of Egypt 4714 to deliver 5414 us into the hand 3027 of the Amorites 567 to destroy 8045 us.
28 'Where 575 can we go 5927 up? Our brethren 251 have made our hearts 3824 melt 4549, saying 559, "The people 5971 are bigger 1419 and taller 7311 than 4480 we; the cities 5892 are large 1419 and fortified 1219 to heaven 8064. And besides 1571, we saw 7200 the sons 1121 of the Anakim 6062 there 8033."'
29 "Then I said 559 to you, 'Do not be shocked 6206, nor 3808 fear 3372 them.
30 'The LORD 3068 your God 430 who goes 1980 before 6440 you will Himself 1931 fight 3898 on your behalf, just as He did 6213 for you in Egypt 4714 before your eyes 5869,
31 and in the wilderness 4057 where 834 you saw 7200 how 834 the LORD 3068 your God 430 carried 5375 you, just 3512 as a man 376 carries 5375 his son 1121, in all 3605 the way 1870 which 834 you have walked 1980 until 5704 you came 935 to this 2088 place 4725.'
32 "But for all this 2088, you did not trust 539 the LORD 3068 your God 430,
33 who goes 1980 before 6440 you on {your} way 1870, to seek 8446 out a place 4725 for you to encamp 2583, in fire 784 by night 3915 and cloud 6051 by day 3119, to show 7200 you the way 1870 in which 834 you should go 1980.
34 ¶ "Then the LORD 3068 heard 8085 the sound 6963 of your words 1697, and He was angry 7107 and took 7650 an oath 7650, saying 559,
35 'Not one 376 of these 428 men 376, this 2088 evil 7451 generation 1755, shall see 7200 the good 2896 land 776 which 834 I swore 7650 to give 5414 your fathers 1,
36 except 2108 Caleb 3612 the son 1121 of Jephunneh 3312; he shall see 7200 it, and to him and to his sons 1121 I will give 5414 the land 776 on which 834 he has set 1869 foot 1869, because he has followed 310 the LORD 3068 fully 4390.'
37 "The LORD 3068 was angry 599 with me also 1571 on your account 1558, saying 559, 'Not even 1571 you shall enter 935 there 8033.
38 'Joshua 3091 the son 1121 of Nun 5126, who stands 5975 before 6440 you, he shall enter 935 there 8033; encourage 2388 him, for he will cause Israel 3478 to inherit 5157 it.
39 'Moreover, your little 2945 ones 2945 who 834 you said 559 would become 1961 a prey 957, and your sons 1121, who 834 this day 3117 have 3045 no 3808 knowledge 3045 of good 2896 or evil 7451, shall enter 935 there 8033, and I will give 5414 it to them and they shall possess 3423 it.
40 'But as for you, turn 6437 around and set 5265 out for the wilderness 4057 by the way 1870 to the Red Sea 3220.'
41 ¶ "Then you said 559 to me, 'We have sinned 2398 against the LORD 3068; we will indeed go 5927 up and fight 3898, just as the LORD 3068 our God 430 commanded 6680 us.' And every 376 man 376 of you girded 2296 on his weapons 3627 of war 4421, and regarded 1951 it as easy 1951 to go 5927 up into the hill 2022 country 2022.
42 "And the LORD 3068 said 559 to me, 'Say 559 to them, "Do not go 5927 up nor 3808 fight 3898, for I am not among 7130 you; otherwise 3808 you will be defeated 5062 before 6440 your enemies 340."'
43 "So I spoke 1696 to you, but you would not listen 8085. Instead you rebelled 4784 against 854 the command 6310 of the LORD 3068, and acted 2102 presumptuously 2102 and went 5927 up into the hill 2022 country 2022.
44 "The Amorites 567 who lived 3427 in that hill 2022 country 2022 came 3318 out against 7122 you and chased 7291 you as bees 1682 do 6213, and crushed 3807 you from Seir 8165 to Hormah 2767.
45 "Then you returned 7725 and wept 1058 before 6440 the LORD 3068; but the LORD 3068 did not listen 8085 to your voice 6963 nor 3808 give 238 ear 238 to you.
46 "So you remained 3427 in Kadesh 6946 many 7227 days 3117, the days 3117 that you spent 3427 {there.}
Chapter 2
1 Wanderings in the Wilderness
"Then we turned 6437 and set 5265 out for the wilderness 4057 by the way 1870 to the Red Sea 3220, as the LORD 3068 spoke 1696 to me, and circled 5437 Mount 2022 Seir 8165 for many 7227 days 3117.
2 "And the LORD 3068 spoke 559 to me, saying 559,
3 'You have circled 5437 this 2088 mountain 2022 long 7227 enough 7227. {Now} turn 6437 north 6828,
4 and command 6680 the people 5971, saying 559, "You will pass 5674 through the territory 1366 of your brothers 251 the sons 1121 of Esau 6215 who live 3427 in Seir 8165; and they will be afraid 3372 of you. So be very 3966 careful 8104;
5 do not provoke 1624 them, for I will not give 5414 you any 4480 of their land 776, even 5704 {as little as} a footstep because 3588 I have given 5414 Mount 2022 Seir 8165 to Esau 6215 as a possession 3425.
6 "You shall buy 7666 food 400 from them with money 3701 so that you may eat 398, and you shall also 1571 purchase 3739 water 4325 from them with money 3701 so that you may drink 8354.
7 "For the LORD 3068 your God 430 has blessed 1288 you in all 3605 that you have done 3027; He has known 3045 your wanderings 1980 through this 2088 great 1419 wilderness 4057. These 2088 forty 705 years 8141 the LORD 3068 your God 430 has been with you; you have not lacked 2637 a thing 1697."'
8 ¶ "So we passed 5674 beyond our brothers 251 the sons 1121 of Esau 6215, who live 3427 in Seir 8165, away 4480 from the Arabah 6160 road 1870, away 4480 from Elath 365 and from Ezion-geber 6100. And we turned 6437 and passed 5674 through 5674 by the way 1870 of the wilderness 4057 of Moab 4124.
9 "Then the LORD 3068 said 559 to me, 'Do not harass 6696 Moab 4124, nor 408 provoke 1624 them to war 4421, for I will not give 5414 you any 4480 of their land 776 as a possession 3425, because 3588 I have given 5414 Ar 6144 to the sons 1121 of Lot 3876 as a possession 3425.'
10 (The Emim 368 lived 3427 there formerly 6440, a people 5971 as great 1419, numerous 7227, and tall 7311 as the Anakim 6062.
11 Like the Anakim 6062, they are also 637 regarded 2803 as Rephaim 7497, but the Moabites 4125 call 7121 them Emim 368.
12 The Horites 2752 formerly 6440 lived 3427 in Seir 8165, but the sons 1121 of Esau 6215 dispossessed 3423 them and destroyed 8045 them from before 6440 them and settled 3427 in their place 8478, just 3512 as Israel 3478 did 6213 to the land 776 of their possession 3425 which 834 the LORD 3068 gave 5414 to them.)
13 'Now 6258 arise 6965 and cross 5674 over 5674 the brook 5158 Zered 2218 yourselves.' So we crossed 5674 over 5674 the brook 5158 Zered 2218.
14 "Now the time 3117 that it took 1980 for us to come 1980 from Kadesh-barnea 6947 until we crossed 5674 over 5674 the brook 5158 Zered 2218 was thirty-eight years 8141, until 5704 all 3605 the generation 1755 of the men 376 of war 4421 perished 8552 from within 7130 the camp 4264, as the LORD 3068 had sworn 7650 to them.
15 "Moreover 1571 the hand 3027 of the LORD 3068 was against them, to destroy 2000 them from within 7130 the camp 4264 until 5704 they all perished 8552.
16 ¶ "So it came 1961 about when 3512 all 3605 the men 376 of war 4421 had finally 8552 perished from among 7130 the people 5971,
17 that the LORD 3068 spoke 1696 to me, saying 559,
18 'Today 3117 you shall cross 5674 over 5674 Ar 6144, the border 1366 of Moab 4124.
19 'When you come 7126 opposite 4136 the sons 1121 of Ammon 5983, do not harass 6696 them nor 408 provoke 1624 them, for I will not give 5414 you any 4480 of the land 776 of the sons 1121 of Ammon 5983 as a possession 3425, because 3588 I have given 5414 it to the sons 1121 of Lot 3876 as a possession 3425.'
20 (It is also 637 regarded 2803 as the land 776 of the Rephaim 7497, {for} Rephaim 7497 formerly 6440 lived 3427 in it, but the Ammonites 5984 call 7121 them Zamzummin 2157,
21 a people 5971 as great 1419, numerous 7227, and tall 7311 as the Anakim 6062, but the LORD 3068 destroyed 8045 them before 6440 them. And they dispossessed 3423 them and settled 3427 in their place 8478,
22 just 3512 as He did 6213 for the sons 1121 of Esau 6215, who live 3427 in Seir 8165, when 834 He destroyed 8045 the Horites 2752 from before 6440 them; they dispossessed 3423 them and settled 3427 in their place 8478 even 5704 to this 2088 day 3117.
23 And the Avvim 5761, who lived 3427 in villages 2691 as far 5704 as Gaza 5804, the Caphtorim 3732 who came 3318 from Caphtor 3731, destroyed 8045 them and lived 3427 in their place 8478.)
24 'Arise 6965, set 5265 out, and pass 5674 through 5674 the valley 5158 of Arnon 769. Look 7200! I have given 5414 Sihon 5511 the Amorite 567, king 4428 of Heshbon 2809, and his land 776 into your hand 3027; begin 2490 to take 3423 possession 3423 and contend 1624 with him in battle 4421.
25 'This 2088 day 3117 I will begin 2490 to put 5414 the dread 6343 and fear 3374 of you upon the peoples 5971 everywhere 3605 under 8478 the heavens 8064, who 834, when they hear 8085 the report 8088 of you, will tremble 7264 and be in anguish 2342 because of you.'
26 ¶ "So I sent 7971 messengers 4397 from the wilderness 4057 of Kedemoth 6932 to Sihon 5511 king 4428 of Heshbon 2809 with words 1697 of peace 7965, saying 559,
27 'Let me pass 5674 through your land 776, I will travel 1980 only on the highway 1870; I will not turn 5493 aside 5493 to the right 3225 or to the left 8040.
28 'You will sell 7666 me food 400 for money 3701 so that I may eat 398, and give 5414 me water 4325 for money 3701 so that I may drink 8354, only 7534 let me pass 5674 through 5674 on foot 7272,
29 just 3512 as the sons 1121 of Esau 6215 who live 3427 in Seir 8165 and the Moabites 4125 who live 3427 in Ar 6144 did 6213 for me, until I cross 5674 over 5674 the Jordan 3383 into the land 776 which 834 the LORD 3068 our God 430 is giving 5414 to us.'
30 "But Sihon 5511 king 4428 of Heshbon 2809 was not willing 14 for us to pass 5674 through his land; for the LORD 3068 your God 430 hardened 7185 his spirit 7307 and made 553 his heart 3824 obstinate 553, in order 4616 to deliver 5414 him into your hand 3027, as {he is} today 3117.
31 "The LORD 3068 said 559 to me, 'See 7200, I have begun 2490 to deliver 5414 Sihon 5511 and his land 776 over 6440 to you. Begin 2490 to occupy 3423, that you may possess 3423 his land 776.'
32 ¶ "Then Sihon 5511 with all 3605 his people 5971 came 3318 out to meet 7122 us in battle 4421 at Jahaz 3096.
33 "The LORD 3068 our God 430 delivered 5414 him over 6440 to us, and we defeated 5221 him with his sons 1121 and all 3605 his people 5971.
34 "So we captured 3920 all 3605 his cities 5892 at that time 6256 and utterly 2763 destroyed 2763 the men 4962, women 802 and children 2945 of every 3605 city 5892. We left 7604 no 3808 survivor 8300.
35 "We took 962 only 7534 the animals 929 as our booty 962 and the spoil 7998 of the cities 5892 which 834 we had captured 3920.
36 "From Aroer 6177 which 834 is on the edge 8193 of the valley 5158 of Arnon 769 and {from} the city 5892 which 834 is in the valley 5158, even to Gilead 1568, there was no 3808 city 7151 that was too 4480 high 7682 for us; the LORD 3068 our God 430 delivered 5414 all 3605 over 6440 to us.
37 "Only 7534 you did not go 7126 near 7126 to the land 776 of the sons 1121 of Ammon 5983, all 3605 along 3027 the river 5158 Jabbok 2999 and the cities 5892 of the hill 2022 country 2022, and wherever the LORD 3068 our God 430 had commanded 6680 us.
Chapter 3
1 Conquests Recounted
"Then we turned 6437 and went 5927 up the road 1870 to Bashan 1316, and Og 5747, king 4428 of Bashan 1316, with all 3605 his people 5971 came 3318 out to meet 7122 us in battle 4421 at Edrei 154.
2 "But the LORD 3068 said 559 to me, 'Do not fear 3372 him, for I have delivered 5414 him and all 3605 his people 5971 and his land 776 into your hand 3027; and you shall do 6213 to him just 3512 as you did 6213 to Sihon 5511 king 4428 of the Amorites 567, who 834 lived 3427 at Heshbon 2809.'
3 "So the LORD 3068 our God 430 delivered 5414 Og 5747 also 1571, king 4428 of Bashan 1316, with all 3605 his people 5971 into our hand 3027, and we smote 5221 them until 5704 no 1115 survivor 8300 was left 7604.
4 "We captured 3920 all 3605 his cities 5892 at that time 6256; there was not a city 7151 which 834 we did not take 3947 from them: sixty 8346 cities 5892, all 3605 the region 2256 of Argob 709, the kingdom 4467 of Og 5747 in Bashan 1316.
5 "All 3605 these 428 were cities 5892 fortified 1219 with high 1364 walls 2346, gates 1817 and bars 1280, besides a great 3966 many 7235 unwalled 6521 towns 5892.
6 "We utterly 2763 destroyed 2763 them, as we did 6213 to Sihon 5511 king 4428 of Heshbon 2809, utterly 2763 destroying 2763 the men 4962, women 802 and children 2945 of every 3605 city 5892.
7 "But all 3605 the animals 929 and the spoil 7998 of the cities 5892 we took 962 as our booty 962.
8 ¶ "Thus we took 3947 the land 776 at that time 6256 from the hand 3027 of the two 8147 kings 4428 of the Amorites 567 who 834 were beyond 5676 the Jordan 3383, from the valley 5158 of Arnon 769 to Mount 2022 Hermon 2768
9 (Sidonians 6722 call 7121 Hermon 2768 Sirion 8303, and the Amorites 567 call 7121 it Senir 8149):
10 all 3605 the cities 5892 of the plateau 4334 and all 3605 Gilead 1568 and all 3605 Bashan 1316, as far 5704 as Salecah 5548 and Edrei 154, cities 5892 of the kingdom 4467 of Og 5747 in Bashan 1316.
11 (For only 7534 Og 5747 king 4428 of Bashan 1316 was left 7604 of the remnant 3499 of the Rephaim 7497. Behold 2009, his bedstead 6210 was an iron 1270 bedstead 6210; it is in Rabbah 7237 of the sons 1121 of Ammon 5983. Its length 753 was nine 8672 cubits 520 and its width 7341 four 702 cubits 520 by ordinary 376 cubit 520.)
12 ¶ "So we took 3423 possession 3423 of this 2088 land 776 at that time 6256. From Aroer 6177, which 834 is by the valley 5158 of Arnon 769, and half 2677 the hill 2022 country 2022 of Gilead 1568 and its cities 5892 I gave 5414 to the Reubenites 7206 and to the Gadites 1425.
13 "The rest 3499 of Gilead 1568 and all 3605 Bashan 1316, the kingdom 4467 of Og 5747, I gave 5414 to the half-tribe of Manasseh 4519, all 3605 the region 2256 of Argob 709 (concerning all 3605 Bashan 1316, it is called 7121 the land 776 of Rephaim 7497.
14 Jair 2971 the son 1121 of Manasseh 4519 took 3947 all 3605 the region 2256 of Argob 709 as far 5704 as the border 1366 of the Geshurites 1651 and the Maacathites 4602, and called 7121 it, {that is,} Bashan 1316, after 5921 his own name 8034, Havvoth-jair 2334, {as it is} to this 2088 day 3117.)
15 "To Machir 4353 I gave 5414 Gilead 1568.
16 "To the Reubenites 7206 and to the Gadites 1425 I gave 5414 from Gilead 1568 even as far 5704 as the valley 5158 of Arnon 769, the middle 8432 of the valley 5158 as a border 1366 and as far 5704 as the river 5158 Jabbok 2999, the border 1366 of the sons 1121 of Ammon 5983;
17 the Arabah 6160 also, with the Jordan 3383 as {a} border 1366, from Chinnereth 3672 even as far 5704 as the sea 3220 of the Arabah 6160, the Salt 4417 Sea 3220, at the foot 8478 of the slopes 794 of Pisgah 6449 on the east 4217.
18 ¶ "Then I commanded 6680 you at that time 6256, saying 559, 'The LORD 3068 your God 430 has given 5414 you this 2088 land 776 to possess 3423 it; all 3605 you valiant 2428 men 1121 shall cross 5674 over 5674 armed 2502 before 6440 your brothers 251, the sons 1121 of Israel 3478.
19 'But your wives 802 and your little 2945 ones 2945 and your livestock 4735 (I know 3045 that you have much 7227 livestock 4735) shall remain 3427 in your cities 5892 which 834 I have given 5414 you,
20 until 5704 the LORD 3068 gives 5117 rest 5117 to your fellow 251 countrymen 251 as to you, and they also 1571 possess 3423 the land 776 which 834 the LORD 3068 your God 430 will give 5414 them beyond 5676 the Jordan 3383. Then you may return 7725 every 376 man 376 to his possession 3425 which 834 I have given 5414 you.'
21 "I commanded 6680 Joshua 3091 at that time 6256, saying 559, 'Your eyes 5869 have seen 7200 all 3605 that the LORD 3068 your God 430 has done 6213 to these 428 two 8147 kings 4428; so 3651 the LORD 3068 shall do 6213 to all 3605 the kingdoms 4467 into which 834 you are about to cross 5674.
22 'Do not fear 3372 them, for the LORD 3068 your God 430 is the one fighting 3898 for you.'
23 ¶ "I also pleaded 2603 with the LORD 3068 at that time 6256, saying 559,
24 'O Lord 136 GOD 3068, You have begun 2490 to show 7200 Your servant 5650 Your greatness 1433 and Your strong 2389 hand 3027; for what 4310 god 410 is there in heaven 8064 or on earth 776 who 834 can do 6213 such works 4639 and mighty 1369 acts 1369 as Yours?
25 'Let me, I pray 4994, cross 5674 over 5674 and see 7200 the fair 2896 land 776 that is beyond 5676 the Jordan 3383, that good 2896 hill 2022 country 2022 and Lebanon 3844.'
26 "But the LORD 3068 was angry 5674 with me on your account 4616, and would not listen 8085 to me; and the LORD 3068 said 559 to me, 'Enough 7227! Speak 1696 to Me no 408 more of this 2088 matter 1697.
27 'Go 5927 up to the top 7218 of Pisgah 6449 and lift 5375 up your eyes 5869 to the west 3220 and north 6828 and south 8486 and east 4217, and see 7200 {it} with your eyes 5869, for you shall not cross 5674 over 5674 this 2088 Jordan 3383.
28 'But charge 6680 Joshua 3091 and encourage 2388 him and strengthen 553 him, for he shall go 5674 across 5674 at the head 6440 of this 2088 people 5971, and he will give 5159 them as an inheritance 5157 the land 776 which 834 you will see 7200.'
29 "So we remained 3427 in the valley 1516 opposite 4136 Beth-peor 1047.
Chapter 4
1 Israel Urged to Obey God's Law
"Now 6258, O Israel 3478, listen 8085 to the statutes 2706 and the judgments 4941 which 834 I am teaching 3925 you to perform 6213, so 4616 that you may live 2421 and go 935 in and take 3423 possession 3423 of the land 776 which 834 the LORD 3068, the God 430 of your fathers 1, is giving 5414 you.
2 "You shall not add 3254 to the word 1697 which 834 I am commanding 6680 you, nor 3808 take 1639 away 1639 from it, that you may keep 8104 the commandments 4687 of the LORD 3068 your God 430 which 834 I command 6680 you.
3 "Your eyes 5869 have seen 7200 what the LORD 3068 has done 6213 in the case of Baal-peor 1187, for all 3605 the men 376 who 834 followed Baal-peor 1187, the LORD 3068 your God 430 has destroyed 8045 them from among 7130 you.
4 "But you who held 1695 fast 1695 to the LORD 3068 your God 430 are alive 2416 today 3117, every 3605 one 3605 of you.
5 ¶ "See 7200, I have taught 3925 you statutes 2706 and judgments 4941 just 3512 as the LORD 3068 my God 430 commanded 6680 me, that you should do 6213 thus 3651 in the land 776 where you are entering 935 to possess 3423 it.
6 "So keep 8104 and do 6213 {them,} for that is your wisdom 2451 and your understanding 998 in the sight 5869 of the peoples 5971 who 834 will hear 8085 all 3605 these 428 statutes 2706 and say 559, 'Surely 7534 this 2088 great 1419 nation 1471 is a wise 2450 and understanding 995 people 5971.'
