DE-4:1 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and


unto the

judgments, which I teach you, for to do [them], that ye may live,
and go in

and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth
you.

DE-4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you,
neither shall ye

diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of
the LORD your

God which I command you.

DE-4:3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of
Baalpeor: for all the

men that followed Baalpeor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them
from among

you.

DE-4:4 But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God [are]
alive every one of

you this day.

DE-4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even
as the LORD my

God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go
to possess

it.

DE-4:6 Keep therefore and do [them]; for this [is] your wisdom
and your

understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all
these

statutes, and say, Surely this great nation [is] a wise and
understanding

people.

DE-4:7 For what nation [is there so] great, who [hath] God [so]
nigh unto

them, as the LORD our God [is] in all [things that] we call upon
him [for]?

DE-4:8 And what nation [is there so] great, that hath statutes
and judgments

[so] righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

DE-4:9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently,
lest thou

forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they
depart from thy

heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy
sons' sons;

DE-4:10 [Specially] the day that thou stoodest before the LORD
thy God in

Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together,
and I will

make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the
days that they

shall live upon the earth, and [that] they may teach their
children.

DE-4:11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the
mountain

burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds,
and thick

darkness.

DE-4:12 And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the
fire: ye heard

the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only [ye heard] a
voice.

DE-4:13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he
commanded you to

perform, [even] ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two
tables of stone.

DE-4:14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you
statutes and

judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over
to possess it.



DE-4:15 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw
no manner of

similitude on the day [that] the LORD spake unto you in Horeb
out of the midst

of the fire:

DE-4:16 Lest ye corrupt [yourselves], and make you a graven
image, the

similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

DE-4:17 The likeness of any beast that [is] on the earth, the
likeness of any

winged fowl that flieth in the air,

DE-4:18 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground,
the likeness

of any fish that [is] in the waters beneath the earth:

DE-4:19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when
thou seest the

sun, and the moon, and the stars, [even] all the host of heaven,
shouldest be

driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God
hath divided

unto all nations under the whole heaven.

DE-4:20 But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out
of the iron

furnace, [even] out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of
inheritance, as [ye

are] this day.

DE-4:21 Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes,
and sware that

I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not go in unto
that good land,

which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance:

DE-4:22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan:
but ye shall

go over, and possess that good land.

DE-4:23 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant
of the LORD

your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image,
[or] the

likeness of any [thing], which the LORD thy God hath forbidden
thee.

DE-4:24 For the LORD thy God [is] a consuming fire, [even] a
jealous God.

DE-4:25 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children,
and ye shall

have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt [yourselves],
and make a

graven image, [or] the likeness of any [thing], and shall do
evil in the sight

of the LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger:

DE-4:26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day,
that ye

shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over
Jordan to

possess it; ye shall not prolong [your] days upon it, but shall
utterly be

destroyed.

DE-4:27 And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and
ye shall be

left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall
lead you.

DE-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.

DE-4:29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God,
thou shalt find

[him], if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

DE-4:30 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are
come upon

thee, [even] in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy
God, and shalt

be obedient unto his voice;

DE-4:31 (For the LORD thy God [is] a merciful God;) he will not
forsake thee,

neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers
which he sware

unto them.

DE-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 [ask] from the
one side of

heaven unto the other, whether there hath been [any such thing]
as this great

thing [is], or hath been heard like it?

DE-4:33 Did [ever] people hear the voice of God speaking out of
the midst of

the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?

DE-4:34 Or hath God assayed to go [and] take him a nation from
the midst of

[another] nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and
by war, and by

a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors,
according to

all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

DE-4:35 Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know that
the LORD he

[is] God; [there is] none else beside him.

DE-4:36 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he
might instruct

thee: and upon earth he showed thee his great fire; and thou
heardest his

words out of the midst of the fire.

DE-4:37 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose
their seed after

them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power
out of Egypt;

DE-4:38 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.

DE-4:39 Know therefore this day, and consider [it] in thine
heart, that the

LORD he [is] God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath:
[there is] none

else.

DE-4:40 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

LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.

DE-4:41 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan
toward the sun

rising;

DE-4:42 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:

DE-4:43 [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.

DE-4:44 And this [is] the law which Moses set before the
children of Israel:

DE-4:45 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,

DE-4:46 On this side Jordan, in the valley over against
Bethpeor, 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:

DE-4:47 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 sun rising;



DE-4:48 From Aroer, which [is] by the bank of the river Arnon,
even unto

mount Sion, which [is] Hermon,

DE-4:49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even
unto the sea of

the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
