his mighty power out of Egypt;
38
To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than
thou
art,
to bring thee in, to give thee their land
for
an inheritance, as
it is
this day.
39
Know therefore
this day, and consider
it
in thine heart, that the L
ORD
he
is
God in heaven above, and upon the earth
beneath:
there is
none else.
40
Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which
I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that
thou mayest prolong
thy
days upon the earth, which the L
ORD
thy God giveth thee, for ever.
41
Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;
42
That the slayer
might flee thither, which should kill his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and
that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
43
Namely,
Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain
country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the
Manassites.
44
And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:
45
These
are
the testimonies,
and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they came
forth out of Egypt,
46
On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon
king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after
they were come forth out of Egypt:
47
And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of
Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which
were
on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;
48
From
Aroer, which
is
by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which
is
Hermon,
49
And
all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
CHAPTER 5
And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which
I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.
2
The L
ORD
our God
made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3
The L
ORD
made not this covenant with our fathers, but with
us,
even
us, who
are
all of us here alive this day.
4
The L
ORD
talked with you face to face in the
mount out of the midst of the fire,
5
(I stood between the L
ORD
and you at that time, to shew you
the word of the L
ORD
: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount;)
saying,
6
I
am
the L
ORD
thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7
Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
8
Thou shalt not make thee
any
graven image,
or
any
likeness
of any thing
that
is
in heaven above, or that
is
in the earth beneath, or that
is
in the waters
beneath the earth:
9
Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the L
ORD
thy
God
am
a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth
generation
of them that hate me,
10
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and
keep my commandments.
11
Thou shalt not take the name of the L
ORD
thy God in vain: for the L
ORD
will not hold
him
guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12
Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as
