I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 9

It came to pass, when all the kings who were on this side of The Descender (Jordan), in the hills, and in the valleys, and in all the coasts of the great sea bordering Whiteness (Lebanon), the Terrors (Hittite), The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), the Village Dwellers (Perizzite), the Villagers (Hivites), and the Trodden Underfoot (Jebusite), heard thereof;

2 They gathered themselves together, to fight with I AM is Salvation (Joshua) and with God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), with one accord.

3 But when the inhabitants of Hill City (Gibeon) heard what I AM is Salvation (Joshua) had done to Its Moon (Jericho) and to Heap of Ruins (Ai),

4 They planned a deception and made it look like they were ambassadors, and took old sacks on their asses, and wine bottles that were old and torn, and bound up;

5 With old stained shoes on their feet, and old garments; and all the bread of their provision was dry and moldy.

6 They went to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), to the camp at Rolling Wheel (Gilgal) and said to him and to the men of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel): We come from a far country: now, therefore, make a league with us.

7 And the men of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel) said to the Villagers (Hivites): What if you dwell among us? How shall we make a league with you?

8 They answered I AM is Salvation (Joshua): We are your servants. Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to them: Who are you? and from where do you come?

9 They answered him: Your servants have come from a very far country because of the name of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym): for we have heard the fame of Him, and all that He did in Double Straights (Egypt),

10 And all that He did to the two kings of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), that were beyond The Descender (Jordan), to Warrior (Sihon) king of Stronghold (Heshbon), and to Long-Necked (Og) king of Fruitful (Bashan), which was at Star (Ashtaroth).

11 Therefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spoke to us, saying: Take food with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say to them: We are your servants: therefore, now make a league with us.

12 This is our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go to you; but now, look, it is dry, and it is moldy:

13 These bottles of wine, which we filled new; look, they are torn: these garments and our shoes are old because of the long journey.

14 And the men took of their food and did not ask counsel at the mouth of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

15 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation swore to them.

16 But it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a league with them, that they heard that they were their neighbors and that they dwelt among them.

17 So the children of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel) journeyed, and came to their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Hill City (Gibeon), and Lioness (Chephirah), Wells (Beeroth), and City of Forests (Kirjathjearim).

18 The children of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel) did not kill them, because the princes of the congregation had sworn to them by I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God (‘Elohiym) of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel) but all the congregation murmured against the princes.

19 But all the princes said to all the congregation: We have sworn to them by I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God (‘Elohiym) of God Prevails (Israel): now, therefore, we may not touch them.

20 This we will do to them; we will let them live, lest wrath comes on us, because of the oath which we swore to them.

21 And the princes said to them: Let them live, but let them be hewers of wood and drawers of water to all the congregation; as the princes had promised them.

22 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) called for them, and he spoke to them, saying: Why have you beguiled us, saying: We are very far from you; when you dwell among us?

23 Now, therefore, you are cursed, and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen, and hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God (‘Elohiym).

24 They answered I AM is Salvation (Joshua): Because it was certainly told to your servants, how that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) commanded his servant Drawn (Moses) to give you all the land and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore we were very afraid of our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

25 Now, look, we are in your hand: as it seems good and right to you to do to us, do.

26 So he did to them and delivered them out of the hand of the children of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), that they did not slay them.

27 This is how I AM is Salvation (Joshua) made them hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation that day, and for the altar of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) to this day, in the place which He should choose.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 8

 1 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): Fear not, neither be dismayed. Take all the people of war with you, and arise, go up to Heap of Ruins (Ai): see, I have given into your hand the king of Heap of Ruins (Ai), and his people, and his city, and his land:

2 You shall do to Heap of Ruins (Ai) and her king as you did to Its Moon (Jericho) and her king: only the spoil thereof, and the cattle thereof, you shall take for prey for yourselves. Lay an ambush for the city behind it.

3 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) arose with all the people of war, to go up against Heap of Ruins (Ai): and I AM is Salvation (Joshua) chose out thirty thousand mighty men of valor and sent them away by night.

4 He commanded them, saying: Behold, you shall lie in wait behind the city. Do go not very far from the city, but be ready:

5 And I, and all the people that are with me, will approach to the city: and it shall come to pass, when they come out against us, as at the first we will flee before them,

6 (For they will come out after us) till we have drawn them from the city; for they will say: They flee before us, as at the first: therefore we will flee before them.

7 Then you shall rise up from the ambush, and seize the city: for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God will deliver it into your hand.

8 And it shall be when you have taken the city, that you shall set the city on fire: according to the commandment of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) do it. See, I have commanded you.

9 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) therefore sent them forth: and they went to lie in ambush, and stayed between The House of God (Bethel) and Heap of Ruins (Ai), on the west side of Heap of Ruins (Ai): but I AM is Salvation (Joshua) lodged that night among the people.

10 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) rose up early in the morning, numbered the people, and went up, he and the elders of God Prevails (Israel), before the people to Heap of Ruins (Ai).

11 Then all the people, the people of war that were with him, went up, and drew nigh, and came before the city, and pitched on the north side of Heap of Ruins (Ai): now there was a valley between them and Heap of Ruins (Ai).

12 He took about five thousand men and set them to lie in ambush between The House of God (Bethel) and Heap of Ruins (Ai), on the city’s west side.

13 When they had set the ambush, all the troops that were on the north of the city, and those lying in wait on the west of the city, I AM is Salvation (Joshua) went that night into the midst of the valley.

14 It came to pass, when the king of Heap of Ruins (Ai) saw it, that they hurried and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against God Prevails (Israel) to battle, he and all his people, at a time appointed, before the plain; but he was not aware that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

15 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) and all God Prevails (Israel) made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.

16 And all the people that were in Heap of Ruins (Ai) were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after I AM is Salvation (Joshua), and were drawn away from the city.

 

17 There was not a man left in Heap of Ruins (Ai) or The House of God (Bethel), that did not go out after God Prevails (Israel): so they left the city open and pursued after God Prevails (Israel).

18 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): Stretch out the spear that is in your hand toward Heap of Ruins (Ai); for I will give it into your hand. So, I AM is Salvation (Joshua) stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city.

19 The ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand. They entered into the city, took it quickly, and set the city on fire.

20 When the men of Heap of Ruins (Ai) looked behind them, they saw, the smoke of the city ascending up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way: and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.

21 When I AM is Salvation (Joshua) and all God Prevails (Israel) saw that the ambush had taken the city and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and slew the men of Heap of Ruins (Ai).

22 The other issued out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of God Prevails (Israel), some on this side and some on that side: and they smote them, so that they let none of them remain or escape.

23 And the king of Heap of Ruins (Ai) they took alive and brought him to I AM is Salvation (Joshua).

 

24 So it came to pass when God Prevails (Israel) had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Heap of Ruins (Ai) in the field, in the wilderness wherein they chased them, and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sword until they were consumed, that all the God Prevails (Israel) returned to Heap of Ruins (Ai) and smote it with the edge of the sword.

25 So all that fell that day, both men and women, were twelve thousand, including all the men of Heap of Ruins (Ai).

26 For I AM is Salvation (Joshua) did not draw his hand back, wherewith he stretched out the spear until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Heap of Ruins (Ai).

27 But the cattle and the spoil of that city God Prevails (Israel) took for a prey to themselves, according to the word of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) which He commanded I AM is Salvation (Joshua).

28 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) burnt Heap of Ruins (Ai), and made it a heap forever. It is a desolation to this day.

29 And the king of Heap of Ruins (Ai) he hanged on a tree until evening: and as soon as the sun was down, I AM is Salvation (Joshua) commanded that they should take his carcass down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remains to this day.

30 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) built an altar to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God of God Prevails (Israel) in mount Bare Mountain (Ebal),

31 As Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded the children of God Prevails (Israel), as it is written in the book of the law of Drawn (Moses), an altar of whole stones, over which no man has lifted up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt offerings to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), and sacrificed peace offerings.

32 He wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of Drawn (Moses), which he wrote in the presence of the children of God Prevails (Israel).

33 Then all God Prevails (Israel), and their elders, and officers, and their judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the Children of Joined To (Levites), who bore the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), as well the stranger, as he that was born among them; half of them over against mount Cuttings Off (Gerizim), and half of them over against mount Bare Mountain (Ebal); as Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) had commanded before, that they should bless the people of God Prevails (Israel).

34 And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings, and the cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law.

35 There was not a word of all that Drawn (Moses) commanded, which I AM is Salvation (Joshua) read not before all the congregation of God Prevails (Israel), with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that were conversant among them.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 7

 1 But the children of God Prevails (Israel) committed a trespass in the accursed thing: for Troubler (Achan), the son of My Vineyard (Carmi), the son of Endowment (Zabdi), the son of Rising (Zerah), of the tribe of Praised (Judah), took of the accursed thing: and the anger of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was kindled against the children of God Prevails (Israel).

Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) sent men from Its Moon (Jericho) to Heap of Ruins (Ai), which is beside House of Vanity (Bethaven), on the east of The House of God (Bethel), and spoke to them, saying: Go up and view the country. So, the men went up and viewed Heap of Ruins (Ai).

They returned to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), and said to him: No need to have all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Heap of Ruins (Ai); don’t have all the people to fight there; for they are but few.

So there went up of the people about three thousand men: and they fled before the men of Heap of Ruins (Ai).

The men of Heap of Ruins (Ai) killed about thirty-six men. They chased them from before the gate all the way to The Breaches (Shebarim) and smote them as they went down. Therefore, the hearts of the people melted and became as water.

Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) tore his clothes, and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) until the evening, he and the elders of God Prevails (Israel), and put dust on their heads.

And I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said: Alas, O I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym), why have You brought these people over The Descender (Jordan), to deliver us into the hand of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), to destroy us? if only we had been content and dwelt on the other side of The Descender (Jordan)!

I AM (THE LORD, YEHOVAH), what shall I say, when God Prevails (Israel) turns their backs before their enemies!

For the Humbled Ones (Canaanites) and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear of it, and shall surround us, and cut off our name from the earth: and what will You do to Your great name?

10 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): Get up; why do you lay on your face?

11 God Prevails (Israel) has sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have taken of the accursed thing. They have stolen, dissembled, and put it among their own stuff.

12 That is why the children of God Prevails (Israel) could not stand before their enemies and turned their backs before their enemies - because they were accursed. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy the accursed from among you.

13 Up, prepare the people and say: Sanctify yourselves before tomorrow: for thus says I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God of God Prevails (Israel), There is an accursed thing in the midst of You, O God Prevails (Israel). You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the accursed thing from among you.

14 In the morning, therefore, you shall be brought according to your tribes: and it shall be, that the tribe which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) chooses shall come according to the families thereof; and the family which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) chooses shall come by households; and the household which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) chooses shall come man by man.

15 And it shall be, that he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he has: because he has transgressed the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) and because he has wrought folly in God Prevails (Israel).

16 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) rose early in the morning, and brought God Prevails (Israel) by their tribes, and the tribe of Praised (Judah) was chosen:

17 And he brought the family of Praised (Judah), and he took the family of the Rising (Zarahites): and he brought the family of Rising (Zarahites) man by man, and Endowment (Zabdi) was taken:

18 So he brought his household man by man; and Troubler (Achan), the son of My Vineyard (Carmi), the son of Endowment (Zabdi), the son of Rising (Zerah), of the tribe of Praised (Judah), was taken.

19 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to Troubler (Achan): My son, give glory to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God of God Prevails (Israel), and make confession to Him; and tell me now what you have done. Do not hide it from me.

20 Then Troubler (Achan) answered I AM is Salvation (Joshua), and said: Indeed, I have sinned against I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God of God Prevails (Israel), and this is what I have done:

21 When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonish garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels in weight, I coveted them, and took them. They are hidden in the earth in the middle of my tent, and the silver is under them.

22 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) sent messengers, and they ran to the tent; it was hidden in his tent with the silver under it.

23 They took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), and to all the children of God Prevails (Israel), and laid them out before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

24 I AM is Salvation (Joshua), and all God Prevails (Israel) with him, took Troubler (Achan) the son of Rising (Zerah), and the silver, the garment, and the wedge of gold, along with his sons, and his daughters, his oxen, his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them to the valley of Trouble (Achor).

25 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said: Why have you troubled us? I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall trouble you this day. And all God Prevails (Israel) stoned him with stones and burned them with fire after they had stoned them with stones.

26 And they raised over him a great heap of stones to this day. So, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore, the name of that place was called, The valley of Trouble (Achor), to this day.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 6

1 Now Its Moon (Jericho) was straightly shut up because of the children of God Prevails (Israel): none went out, and none came in.

2 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): See, I have given into your hand Its Moon (Jericho), and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valor.

3 You shall compass the city, all you men of war, and go round about the city once. This you shall do for six days.

4 Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark and on the seventh day you shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

5 Then it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

6 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Nun called the priests and said to them: Take up the ark of the covenant and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

7 He said to the people: Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

8 Then it came to pass, when I AM is Salvation (Joshua) had spoken to the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) followed them.

9 Then the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

10 And I AM is Salvation (Joshua) had commanded the people, saying: You shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall you shout.

11 So the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp 

12 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

13 The seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns went before the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), and blew continually with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rear guard came after the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

14 Again on the second day they compassed the city once and returned to the camp: they did so for six days.

15 It came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city in the same manner: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

16 On the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to the people: Shout; for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has given you the city.

17 This city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah): only Wide (Rahab) the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house because she hid the messengers that we sent.

18 And you, keep yourselves from the accursed thing in every way, lest you make yourselves accursed, when you take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of God Prevails (Israel) a curse, and trouble it.

19 But all the silver, gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) and shall come into the treasury of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: When the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, ox, sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword 

22 But I AM is Salvation (Joshua) had said to the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out the woman, and all that she has, as you swore to her.

23 So the young men that were spies went in and brought out Wide (Rahab), and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them outside the camp of God Prevails (Israel).

24 Then they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and iron, they put into the treasury of the house of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

25 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) saved Wide (Rahab) the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwells in God Prevails (Israel) to this day; because she hid the messengers, which I AM is Salvation (Joshua) sent to spy out Its Moon (Jericho).

26 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) adjured them at that time, saying: Cursed be the man before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), that rises up and builds this city Its Moon (Jericho): he shall lay the foundation thereof with his firstborn, and with his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

27 So I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was with I AM is Salvation (Joshua); and his fame was noised throughout all the country.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 5

 1 It came to pass, when all the kings of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), which were on the west side of The Descender (Jordan), and all the kings of the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), which were by the sea, heard that  I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) had dried up the waters of The Descender (Jordan) from before the children of God Prevails (Israel), until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them anymore, because of the children of God Prevails (Israel).

2 At that time, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), Make yourself sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of God Prevails (Israel) the second time.

3 So I AM is Salvation (Joshua) made sharp knives and circumcised the children of God Prevails (Israel) at the hill of the foreskins. 

4 The reason I AM is Salvation (Joshua) circumcised was this: All the males that came out of Double Straights (Egypt), that is, all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Double Straights (Egypt).

5 Now all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Double Straights (Egypt), had not been circumcised.

6 For the children of God Prevails (Israel) walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people that were men of war, which came out of Double Straights (Egypt), were consumed because they did not obey the voice of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah): to whom  I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) swore that He would not show them the land, which  I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) swore to their fathers that He would give us, a land that flows with milk and honey.

7 Their children, whom He raised up in their stead, these I AM is Salvation (Joshua) circumcised: for they were uncircumcised because they had not circumcised them by the way.

8 It came to pass when they had done circumcising all the people, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.

9 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), This day have I rolled away the reproach of Double Straights (Egypt) from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is called Rolling Wheel (Gilgal) to this day.

10 And the children of God Prevails (Israel) encamped in Rolling Wheel (Gilgal), and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Its Moon (Jericho).

11 They ate of the old corn of the land on the day after the Passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn that day.

12 Then the manna ceased the day after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of God Prevails (Israel) manna anymore, but they ate of the fruit of the land of Humbled One (Canaan) that year.

13 Then when I AM is Salvation (Joshua) was by Its Moon (Jericho), he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and I AM is Salvation (Joshua) went to him and said to him: Are you for us, or for our adversaries?

14 He answered, “Nay; but as captain of the host of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) I have come. I AM is Salvation (Joshua) fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and said to Him: What does my Lord (Adonay) want to say to his servant?

15 The captain of the I AM's (the LORD, Yehovah) host said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua): Take your shoe off your foot; for the place where you stand is holy. So, I AM is Salvation (Joshua) did so.

I AM is Salvation (I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 4

1 It came to pass when all the people had passed over The Descender (Jordan), that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), saying:

2 Take twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man,

3 And command them, saying: Go out to the middle of The Descender (Jordan), out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, carry twelve stones over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where you lodge tonight.

4 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) called the twelve men, whom he directed of the children of God Prevails (Israel), out of every tribe a man: 

5 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to them: Pass over before the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) into the middle of The Descender (Jordan), and let every man of you take a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of God Prevails (Israel):

6 That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying: What is meant by these stones?

7 You shall answer them: The waters of The Descender (Jordan) were cut off before the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) when it passed over The Descender (Jordan), and these stones shall be for a memorial to the children of God Prevails (Israel) forever.

8 So the children of God Prevails (Israel) did as I AM is Salvation (Joshua) commanded, and took up twelve stones from the middle of The Descender (Jordan), as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), according to the number of the tribes of the children of God Prevails (Israel), and carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

9 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) set up twelve stones in the midst of The Descender (Jordan), in the place where the feet of the priests which bore the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there to this day.

10 For the priests who bore the ark stood in the middle of The Descender (Jordan) until everything was finished that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded I AM is Salvation (Joshua) to speak to the people, according to all that Drawn (Moses) commanded I AM is Salvation (Joshua): and the people hurried and passed over.

11 Then when all the people had passed over, the ark of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) passed over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.

12 The children of Behold a Son (Reuben), the children of Behold a Son (Reuben), and half the tribe of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) passed over armed before the children of God Prevails (Israel), as Drawn (Moses) spoke to them: 

13 About forty thousand prepared for war passed over before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) to battle, to the plains of Its Moon (Jericho).

14 On that day I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) magnified I AM is Salvation (Joshua) in the sight of all God Prevails (Israel); and they feared him, as they feared Drawn (Moses), all the days of his life.

15 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), saying,

16 Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony to come up out of The Descender (Jordan).

17 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) therefore commanded the priests, saying: Come up out of The Descender (Jordan).

18 And when the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) came up out of the midst of The Descender (Jordan), and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up to the dry land, that the waters of The Descender (Jordan) returned to their place, and flowed over all its banks, as they did before.

19 And the people came up out of The Descender (Jordan) on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Its Moon (Jericho). 

20 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) pitched at Gilgal the twelve stones, which they took out of The Descender (Jordan).

21 There he spoke to the children of God Prevails (Israel), saying: When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying: What do these stones mean?

22 Then you shall let your children know, saying: God Prevails (Israel) came over this The Descender (Jordan) on dry land.

23 For I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) dried up the waters of The Descender (Jordan) from before you until you had passed over, as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) did to the Red (Reed) sea, which He dried up from before us until we had gone over:

24 That all the people of the earth might know the hand of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), that it is mighty: that you might fear I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) forever.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 3

 1 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) rose early in the morning and left from The Acacias (Shittim), and came to The Descender (Jordan), he and all the children of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), and lodged there before they passed over. 

2 After three days, the officers went through the host;

3 They commanded the people, saying: When you see the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym), and the priests the Children of Joined To (Levites) bearing it, then you shall leave your place, and go after it.

4 Leave a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure: do not come near it, but follow it, that you may know the way by which you must go: for you have not passed this way before.

5 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to the people: Sanctify yourselves: for tomorrow I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) will do wonders among you.

6 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) spoke to the priests, saying: Take up the ark of the covenant and pass over before the people. So they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people.

7 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), This day will I begin to magnify you in the sight of all God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), that they may know that, as I was with Drawn (Moses), so I will be with you.

8 Command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying: When you have come to the brink of the water of The Descender (Jordan), stand still in The Descender (Jordan).

9 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said to the children of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), Come and hear the words of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym). 

10 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) said: Hereby you shall know that the living God (‘Elohiym) is among you and that He will without fail drive out from before you the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), and the Terrors (Hittite), and the Villagers  (Hivites), and Those Belonging to a Village (Perizzites), and the Dwelling of Clayey Soil (Girgashites), and The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), and the Trodden Underfoot (Jebusites).

11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) of all the earth passes over before you into The Descender (Jordan).

12 Now, therefore, take twelve men out of the tribes of God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel), out of every tribe a man. 

13 And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the Lord, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of The Descender (Jordan), that the waters of The Descender (Jordan) shall be cut off from the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand in a heap.

14 So it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over The Descender (Jordan), and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;

15 And as they that bore the ark came to The Descender (Jordan), and the feet of the priests that bare the ark dipped in the brim of the water, (for The Descender (Jordan) overflows its banks all the time of harvest,)

16 That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up on a heap very far from the city Ruddy Man (Adam), that is beside Their Distress (Zaretan): and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Its Moon (Jericho).

17 And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) stood firm on dry ground in the middle of The Descender (Jordan), and all the God (‘Elohiym) Prevails (Israel) passed over on dry ground until all the people had passed over The Descender (Jordan).

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 2

 1 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity (Nun) sent out from The Acacias (Shittim) two men to spy secretly, saying: Go view the land, in and around Its Moon (Jericho). So, they went into a harlot's house, named Wide (Rahab), and lodged there.

2 The king of Its Moon (Jericho) was told: Men of the children of God Prevails (Israel) have come tonight to search out the country.

3 So the king of Its Moon (Jericho) sent to Wide (Rahab), saying: Bring forth the men that have come to you, who entered your house: for they have come to search out all the country.

4 But the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said this: Men came to me, but I do not know where they are:

5 About the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, the men went out: where the men went, I don’t know: pursue after them quickly; you will overtake them. 

6 But she had brought them up to the roof of the house and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order on the roof.

7 So the men pursued after them the way to The Descender (Jordan) to the fords: and as soon as they who pursued after them went out, they shut the gate.

8 Before they were laid down, she came up to them on the roof;

9 She said to the men: I know that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has given you the land and that your terror is fallen on us. All the inhabitants of the land faint because of you. 

10 We have heard how I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Double Straights (Egypt); and what you did to the two kings of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), that were on the other side The Descender (Jordan), Warrior (Sihon) and Long-Necked (Og), whom you utterly destroyed.

11 As soon as we had heard these things, our hearts melted, neither was there remain any more courage in any man, because of you: for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God, he is God in heaven above, and in the earth beneath.

12 Now, therefore, I pray you, swear to me by I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), since I have showed you kindness, that you will also show kindness to my father's house, and give me a true token:

13 That you will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.

14 The men answered her: Our life for yours if you keep quiet about our business. When I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has given us the land, we will deal kindly and truly with you.

15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was on the town wall, and she dwelt on the wall.

16 She said to them: Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days until the pursuers return: and afterward you may go your way.

17 The men said to her: We will be blameless of this your oath which you have made us swear.

18 When we come into the land, bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which you let us down by. Bring your father, and your mother, and your brothers, and all your father's household, home to you.

19 Whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be on his head, and we will be guiltless: and whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is laid on him.

20 If you speak about our business, then we will not be accountable to the oath which you have made us swear.

21 She agreed: According to your words, so be it. Then she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window 

22 So they went, and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but did not find them.

23 So the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun, and told him all things that befell them:

24 And they said to Joshua, Truly I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has delivered into our hands all the land; for all the inhabitants of the country faint because of us.

I AM is Salvation (Joshua) 1

 1 Now after the death of Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) it came to pass, that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to I AM is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity (Nun), Drawn (Moses)' minister, saying:

2 Drawn (Moses) My servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over The Descender (Jordan), you, and all these people, to the land which I have given to them, the children of God Prevails (Israel).

3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that I have given to you, as I said to Drawn (Moses).

4 From the wilderness over to Whiteness (Lebanon) to the great river, the river Fruitfulness (Euphrates), all the land of the Terrors (Hittite), and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your territory.

5 There will not be any man who can stand before you all the days of your life: as I was with Drawn (Moses), so I will be with you: I will not fail you, nor forsake you.

6 Be strong and of good courage: for you shall divide this land among the people - the inheritance which I swore to their fathers to give them 

7 Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law, which Drawn (Moses) My servant commanded you: Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.

8 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.

9 Have not I commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid, neither be dismayed: for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) is with you wherever you go.

10 Then I AM is Salvation (Joshua) commanded the officers of the people, saying:

11 Pass through the host, and command the people, saying: Prepare for yourselves victuals; for within three days you shall pass over The Descender (Jordan), to go in to possess the land, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) gives you to possess it.

12 To the Behold a Son’s (Reuben), and to the Troops (Gad), and to the half-tribe of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), I AM is Salvation (Joshua) spoke, saying:

13 Remember the word which Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded you, saying, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) has given you rest and has given you this land. 

14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Drawn (Moses) gave you on this side The Descender (Jordan); but you shall pass before your brethren armed, all the mighty men of valor, and help them;

15 Until I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has given your brethren rest, as He has given you, and they also have possessed the land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) gives them: then you shall return to the land of your possession, and enjoy it, which Drawn (Moses) I AM's (the LORD, Yehovah) servant gave you on this side The Descender (Jordan) toward the sun rising.

16 And they answered, saying: All that you command us we will do, and wherever you send us, we will go.

17 As we listened to Drawn (Moses) in all things, so will we listen to you: I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God (‘Elohiym) be with you, as He was with Drawn (Moses).

18 Whosoever rebels against your commandment, and will not listen to your words in all that you command, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of good courage.

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 34

 1 Then Drawn (Moses) went up from the plains of Of His Father (Moab) to Mount Prophet (Nebo), to the top of Cleft (Pisgah), that is over against Its Moon (Jericho). From there, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah showed him all the land of Rocky Region (Gilead), to Judge (Dan),

2 All Wrestling (Naphtali), the land of Double Ash-Heap: Doubly Fruitful (Ephraim), Causing to Forget (Manasseh), all the land of Praised (Judah), to the utmost sea,

3 Along with the south, and the plain of the valley of Its Moon (Jericho), the city of palm trees, to Insignificance (Zoar).

4 There, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to him: This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, I will give it to your seed: I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go there.

5 So Drawn (Moses) the servant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) died there in the land of Of His Father (Moab), according to the word of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

6 He buried him in a valley in the land of Of His Father (Moab), over against House of Cleft (Bethpeor): but no man knows where his sepulcher is to this day.

7 Drawn (Moses) was a hundred twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.

8 Then the children of God Prevails (Israel) wept for Drawn (Moses) in the plains of Of His Father (Moab) thirty days: then the days of weeping and mourning for Drawn (Moses) were ended.

9 Jehovah is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity (Nun) was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Drawn (Moses) had laid his hands upon him: and the children of God Prevails (Israel) listened to him, and did as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded Drawn (Moses).

10 There has not been a prophet since then in God Prevails (Israel) like to Drawn (Moses), whom I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) knew face to face,

11 In all the signs and the wonders, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) sent him to do in the land of Double Straights (Egypt) to Great House (Pharaoh), and to all His servants, and to all His land,

12 In all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Drawn (Moses) showed in the sight of all God Prevails (Israel).

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 33

  

1 This is the blessing, wherewith Drawn (Moses) the man of God ('Elohiym) blessed the children of God Prevails (Israel) before his death.

 

2 He said: I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) came from Thorny (Sinai), and rose up from Shaggy (Seir) to them; He shined forth from Mount The Place of the Caverns (Paran). He came with ten thousands of saints: from His right hand went a fiery law for them. 

3 Yes, He loved the people; all His saints are in Your hand: and they sat down at Your feet; each shall receive of Your words. 

4 Drawn (Moses) commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Heel-Grabber (Jacob).

5 He was king in Upright One (Jeshurun), when the heads of the people and the tribes of God Prevails (Israel) were gathered together.

6 Let Behold a Son (Reuben) live and not die, and let not his men be few.

7 This is the blessing of Praised (Judah): and he said: Hear, I AM (LORD, Yehovah), the voice of Praised (Judah), and bring him to his people: let his hands be sufficient for him, and be a help to him from his enemies.

8 And of Joined To (Levi) he said: Let your Thummim and your Urim be with your Holy One, whom you proved at Temptation (Massah), and with whom you strove at the waters of Place of Strife (Meribah);

9 Who said to his father and to his mother: I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed your word, and kept your covenant.

10 They shall teach Heel-Grabber (Jacob) Your judgments, and God Prevails (Israel) Your law: they shall put incense before You, and whole burnt sacrifice on Your altar.

11 Bless, I AM (LORD, Yehovah), his substance, and accept the work of his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.

12 Of Son of the Right Hand (Benjamin) he said: The beloved of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall dwell in safety by him; and I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between His shoulders.

13 Of I AM Will Add (Joseph) he said: Blessed of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that couches beneath,

14 For the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,

15 For the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,

16 For the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the goodwill of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come on the head of I AM Will Add (Joseph), and on the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.

17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them, he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.

18 Of Exalted (Zebulun) he said: Rejoice, Exalted (Zebulun), in your going out; and, Recompense (Issachar), in your tents.

19 They shall call the people to the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.

20 Of Troop (Gad) he said: Blessed be he that enlarges Troop (Gad): he dwelleth as a lion, and tears the arm with the crown of the head.

21 He provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, he was seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), and his judgments with God Prevails (Israel). 

22 Of Judge (Dan) he said: Judge (Dan) is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan.

23 Of Wrestling (Naphtali) he said: O Wrestling (Naphtali), satisfied with favor, and full with the blessing of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah): You possess the west and the south. 

24 Of Happy (Asher) he said: Let Happy (Asher) be blessed with children; let him be acceptable to his brethren and let him dip his foot in oil.

25 Your shoes shall be iron and brass; and as your days, so shall your strength be.

26 There is none like to the God ('Elohiym) of Upright One (Jeshurun), who rides on the heaven to help you, and in His excellency on the sky. 

27 The eternal God ('Elohiym) is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He shall thrust out the enemy from before you; and shall say; Destroy them.

28 God Prevails (Israel) then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Heel-Grabber (Jacob) shall be on a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.

29 Happy are you, O God Prevails (Israel): who is like you, O people saved by I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), the shield of your help, and who is the sword of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars by you; and you shall tread on their high places.

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 32

 1 Give ear, O you heavens, and I will speak. Hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.

 2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain. My speech shall distill as the dew, as the small rain on the tender herb, and as the showers on the grass:

 3 Because I will proclaim the name of The Existing One (the LORD, Yehovah): ascribe greatness to our God ('Elohim).

 4 He is the Rock, His work is perfect: for all His ways are judgment: a God ('Elohim). of truth and without iniquity, just and right is He.

 5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of Hxczis children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.

 6 Is this how you reward I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), O foolish people and unwise? is not He your Father that has bought you? has He not made you and established you?

 7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask your father, and he will show you; your elders and they will tell you.

 8 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of Ruddy Man (Adam), He set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of God Prevails (Israel).

 9 For I AM’s (the LORD, Yehovah) portion is His people; Heel-Grabber (Jacob) is the lot of His inheritance.

 10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; He led him about, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of his eye.

 11 As an eagle stirs up her nest, flutters over her young, spreads abroad her wings, takes them, and bears them on her wings:

 12 So I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) alone did lead him, and there was no strange god (el) with him.

 13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and He made him suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;

 14 Butter of cattle, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs, rams from Fruitful (Bashan) and goats, with the fat of kidneys fed grain; and you drank the pure blood of the grape.

 15 But Upright One (Jeshurun) became fat and kicked: you have become fat, you have grown thick, you are covered with fatness; then he forsook God (Eloha) who made him and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

 16 They provoked Him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they Him to anger.

 17 They sacrificed to devils, not to God (Eloha); to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

 18 Of the Rock that begat you, you are unmindful and have forgotten God (El) who formed you.

 19 When I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) saw it, He abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.

 20 And He said: I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.

 21 They have moved Me to jealousy with that which is not God (El); they have provoked Me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

 22 For a fire is kindled in My anger and shall burn to the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.

 23 I will heap mischiefs on them; I will spend My arrows on them.

 24They shall be burnt with hunger and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts on them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.

 25 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.

 26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:

 27 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say: Our hand is high, and I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has not done all this.

 28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.

 29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!

 30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) had shut them up?

 31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.

 32 For their vine is of the vine of Burning (Sodom), and of the fields of Tyrants (Gomorrah): their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:

 33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.

 34 Is not this laid up in store with Me, and sealed up among My treasures?

 35 To Me belongs vengeance and recompense; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come on them make haste.

 36 For I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall judge His people, and repent Himself for His servants, when He sees that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.

 37 He shall say: Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,

 38 Who ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.

 39 See now that I, even I, am He, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of My hand.

 40 For I lift up My hand to heaven, and say: I live for ever.

 41 If I whet My glittering sword, and My hand takes hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to My enemies and reward them that hate Me.

 42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, and My sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of acts of revenge on the enemy.

 43 Rejoice, O you nations, with His people: for He will avenge the blood of His servants, and will render vengeance to His adversaries, and will be merciful to His land, and to His people.

 44 All this Drawn (Moses) came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Salvation (Hoshea) the son of Posterity (Nun).

 45 Then Drawn (Moses) made an end of speaking all these words to all God Prevails (Israel):

 46 And he said to them: Set your hearts to all the words which I testify among you this day, which you shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.

 47 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing, you shall prolong your days in the land, when you go over The Descender (Jordan) to possess it.

 48 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to Drawn (Moses) that day, saying:

 49 Go up into the mountains of Regions Beyond (Abarim), to Mount Prophet (Nebo), which is in the land of Of His Father (Moab), that is over against Its Moon (Jericho); and behold the land of Humbled One (Canaan), which I give to the children of God Prevails (Israel) for a possession:

 50 There you shall die in the mount where you go up, and be gathered to your people; as Light Bringer (Aaron) your brother died in The Mountain (Hor) and was gathered to his people:

 51 Because you trespassed against Me among the children of God Prevails (Israel) at the waters of Place of Strife (Meribah) Holy (Kadesh), in the wilderness of Flat (Zin); because you did not sanctify Me in the midst of the children of God Prevails (Israel).

 52 Yet you shall see the land before you, but you shall not go into to the land which I give the children of God Prevails (Israel).
