These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 4

 1 Now, therefore, pay attention, O God Prevails (Israel), to the statutes and to the judgments, which I teach you, to do them, that you may live, and go in and possess the land which I AM LORD God (Yehovah-Elohyim) of your fathers gives you.

 

2 You shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall you take anything away from it, that you may keep the commandments of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) which I command you.

 

3 Your eyes have seen what I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) did because of Lord of the Gap (Baalpeor): all the men that followed Lord of the Gap (Baalpeor), I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) has destroyed them from among you.

 

4 But you that cleaved to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) are alive every one of you this day.

 

5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) my God ('Elohiym) commanded me, that you should do so in the land where you go to possess it.

 

6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and 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.

 

7 For what nation is there so great, who has God ('Elohiym) so close to them, as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) is in all things that we call on Him for?

 

8 And what nation is there so great, that has statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

 

9 Only take heed to yourself, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life: but teach them your sons, and your sons' sons.

 

10 Especially the day that you stood before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) in Desert (Horeb), when I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Gather 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.

 

11 You came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire to the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.

 

12 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to you out of the midst of the fire: you heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only you heard a voice.

 

13 He declared to you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and He wrote them on two tables of stone.

 

14 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that you might do them in the land when you go over to possess it.

 

15 Take therefore good heed to yourselves; for you saw no manner of similitude on the day that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to you in Desert (Horeb) out of the midst of the fire:

 

16 Lest you corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

 

17 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flies in the air,

 

18 The likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:

 

19 Lest you lift up your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, should be driven to worship them, and serve them, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) has divided to all nations under the whole heaven.

 

20 But I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Double Straights (Egypt), to be to Him a people of inheritance, as you are this day.

 

21 Furthermore I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that I would not go over The Descender (Jordan), and that I would not go into that good land, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) gives you for an inheritance:

 

22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over The Descender (Jordan): but you shall go over, and possess that good land.

 

23 Take heed to yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym), which He made with you, and make yourselves a graven image, or the likeness of anything, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) have forbidden.

 

24 For I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) is a consuming fire, even a jealous God ('Elohiym).

 

25 When you beget children, and children's children, and you have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of anything, and shall do evil in the sight of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym), to provoke Him to anger:

 

26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that you shall soon utterly perish from off the land where you go over The Descender (Jordan) to possess it; you shall not prolong your days there, but shall utterly be destroyed.

 

27 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall scatter you among the nations, and you shall be left few in number among the heathen, where I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) shall lead you.

 

28 There you shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

 

29 But if from there you shall seek I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym), you shall find Him, if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.

 

30 When you are in tribulation, and all these things have come upon you, even in the latter days, if you turn to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym), and shall be obedient to His voice;

 

31 For I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) is a merciful God ('Elohiym); He will not forsake you, neither destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which He swore to them.

 

32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that God ('Elohiym) created man upon the earth, and asked from the one side of heaven to the other, whether there has been any such thing as this great thing is, or has been heard like it?

 

33 Did people ever hear the voice of God ('Elohiym) speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and lived?

 

34 Or has God ('Elohiym) endeavored 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 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) did for you in Double Straights (Egypt) before your eyes?

 

35 To you it was shown, that you might know that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) He is God ('Elohiym); there is no-one else beside Him.

 

36 Out of heaven He made you hear His voice, that He might instruct you: and on earth, He showed you His great fire, and you heard His words out of the midst of the fire.

 

37 Because He loved your fathers, therefore He chose their seed after them, and brought you out in his sight with His mighty power out of Double Straights (Egypt);

 

38 To drive out nations from before you greater and mightier than you are, to bring you in, to give you their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.

 

39 Know therefore this day, and consider it in your heart, that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) He is God ('Elohiym) in heaven above, and on the earth beneath: there is none else.

 

40 You shall keep therefore His statutes, and His commandments, which I command you this day, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, and that You may prolong your days upon the earth, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) gives you, forever.

 

41 Then Drawn (Moses) severed three cities on this side The Descender (Jordan) toward the sun rising;

 

42 That the slayer might flee there, who killed his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing to one of these cities he might live:

 

43 Namely, Gold Ore (Bezer) in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Behold a Sons (Reubenites); and Heights (Ramoth) in Rocky Region (Gilead), of the Troops (Gadites); and Their Captivity: Their Rejoicing (Golan) in Fruitful (Bashan), of the Children of Causing to Forget (Manassites).

 

44 And this is the law which Drawn (Moses) set before the children of God Prevails (Israel):

 

45 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Drawn (Moses) spoke to the children of God Prevails (Israel), after they came forth out of Double Straights (Egypt).

 

46 On this side The Descender (Jordan), in the valley over against House of Cleft (Bethpeor), in the land of Warrior (Sihon) king of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), who dwelt at Stronghold (Heshbon), whom Drawn (Moses) and the children of God Prevails (Israel) smote, after they come out of Double Straights (Egypt):

 

47 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Fruitful (Bashan), two kings of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), which were on this side The Descender (Jordan) toward the sun rising;

 

48 From Ruins (Aroer), which is by the bank of the river Rushing Stream (Arnon), even to Mount Lofty (Sion), which is Sanctuary (Hermon),

 

49 And all the plain on this side The Descender (Jordan) eastward, even to the sea of the plain, under the springs of Cleft (Pisgah).

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 3

 1 Then we turned and went up the way to Fruitful (Bashan). Long-Necked (Og) the king of Fruitful (Bashan) came out against us, he and all his people, to battle at Goodly Pasture (Edrei).

 

2 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land, into your hand; and you shall do to him as you did to Warrior (Sihon) king of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), which dwelt at Stronghold (Heshbon).

 

3 So I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) delivered into our hands Long-Necked (Og) also, the king of Fruitful (Bashan), and all his people: and we smote him until no one was left of him.

 

4 We took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we didn’t take from them, thirty cities, all the region of Heap of Clods (Argob), the kingdom of Long-Necked (Og) in Fruitful (Bashan).

 

5 All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; in addition to those, unwalled towns a great many.

 

6 We utterly destroyed them, as we did to Warrior (Sihon) king of Stronghold (Heshbon), utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.

 

7 But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.

 

8 At that time, we took out of the hand of the two kings of The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites) the land that was on this side of the Descender (Jordan), from the river of Rushing Stream (Arnon) to Mount Sanctuary (Hermon);

 

9 (Which Sanctuary (Hermon) the Hunters/Fishers call Breastplate (Sirion); and The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites) call it Snow Mountain (Shenir);)

 

10 All the cities of the plain, and all Rocky Region (Gilead), and all Fruitful (Bashan), to Migration (Salchah) and Goodly Pasture (Edrei), cities of the kingdom of Long-Necked (Og) in Fruitful (Bashan).

 

11 For only Long-Necked (Og) king of Fruitful (Bashan) remained of the remnant of giants; behold his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Great (Rabbath) of the children of Tribal (Ammon)? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.

 

12 This land, which we possessed at that time, from Ruins (Aroer), which is by the river Rushing Stream (Arnon), and half mount Rocky Region (Gilead), and the cities thereof, I gave to the Behold a Sons (Reubenites) and to the Troops (Gadites).

 

13 The rest of Rocky Region (Gilead), and all Fruitful (Bashan), being the kingdom of Long-Necked (Og), I gave to the half-tribe of Causing to Forget (Manasseh); all the region of Heap of Clods (Argob), with all of Fruitful (Bashan), which was called the land of giants.

 

14 He Enlightens (Jair), the son of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), took all the country of Heap of Clods (Argob) to the coasts of From the Bridge (Geshuri) and Pressure (Maachasi); and called them after his own name Villages of He Enlightens (Havothjair) to this day.

 

15 And I gave Rocky Region (Gilead) to Sold (Machir).

 

16 T the Behold a Sons (Reubenites) and to the Troops (Gad) I gave from Rocky Region (Gilead) from the river Rushing Stream (Arnon) half the valley, and the border to the river Emptying (Jabbok), which is the border of the children of Tribal (Ammon);

 

17 The plain also, and the Descender (Jordan), and the coast thereof, from Harps (Chinnereth) even to the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, under Springs Pouring Out of the Mountain (Ashdothpisgah) eastward.

 

18 I commanded you at that time, saying, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) has given you this land to possess it: you shall pass over armed before your brethren the children of God Prevails (Israel), all that are able for the war.

 

19 But your wives, and your little ones, and your cattle, (for I know that you have much cattle,) shall stay in your cities which I have given you;

 

20 Until I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) has given rest to your brethren, as well as to you, and until they also possess the land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) has given them beyond the Descender (Jordan). Then you shall return every man to his possession, which I have given you.

 

21 I commanded Jehovah is Salvation (Joshua) at that time, saying: Your eyes have seen all that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) has done to these two kings: so shall I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) do to all the kingdoms wherever you go.

 

22 You shall not fear them: for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym), He shall fight for you.

 

23 I sought I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) at that time, saying:

 

24 O Lord (Adonay) I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness, and Your mighty hand: for what god ('elohiym) is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to Your works, and according to Your might?

 

25 Please, let me go over and see the good land that is beyond the Descender (Jordan), that goodly mountain, and Whiteness (Lebanon).

 

26 But I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was angry with me for your sakes, and would not hear me: and I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Let it be; speak no more to me of this matter.

 

27 Get up into the top of Cleft (Pisgah), and lift up your eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with your eyes: for you shall not go over the Descender (Jordan).

 

28 But charge Jehovah is Salvation (Joshua), and encourage him, and strengthen him: for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which you shall see.

 

29 So we stayed in the valley over against House of Cleft (Bethpeor).

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 2

 1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea, as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to me: and we circled Mount Shaggy (Seir) many days.

 

2 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to me, saying:

 

3 You have gone around this mountain long enough: turn northward.

 

4 Command the people, saying: You are to pass through the edge of your brethren the children of Hairy (Esau), which dwell in Shaggy (Seir); and they shall be afraid of you: take good heed to yourselves, therefore:

 

5 Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given Mount Shaggy (Seir) to Hairy (Esau) for a possession.

 

6 You shall buy food from them for money, that you may eat; and you shall also buy water of them for money, that you may drink.

 

7 For I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God has blessed you in all the works of your hand: He knows your walking through this great wilderness: these forty years I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.

 

8 When we passed by from our brethren the children of Hairy (Esau), who dwelt in Shaggy (Seir), through the way of the plain from the Grove of Lofty Trees (Elath), and from Backbone of a Man (Eziongaber), we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Of His Father (Moab).

 

9 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Distress not the Of His Fathers (Moabites), neither contend with them in battle: for I will not give you of their land for a possession; because I have given City (Ar) to the children of Covering (Lot) for a possession.

 

10 The Terrors (Emims) dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Long-Necks (Anakims);

 

11 Who also were accounted giants, as the Long-Necks (Anakims); but the Of His Fathers (Moabites) called them Terrors (Emims).

 

12 The Cave Dwellers (Horims) also dwelt in Shaggy (Seir) at one time; but the children of Hairy (Esau) succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as God Prevails (Israel) did to the land of his possession, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) gave to them.

 

13 Now rise up, said I, and get you over the brook Willow Brook (Zered). And we went over Willow Brook (Zered).

 

14 The space in which we came from Holy (Kadeshbarnea) until we came over the brook Willow Brook (Zered), was thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out from among the host, as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) swore to them.

 

15 For indeed the hand of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was against them, to destroy them from among the host until they were consumed.

 

16 So it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed and dead from among the people,

 

17 That I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to me, saying,

 

18 You are to pass over through City (Ar), the coast of Of His Father (Moab), this day:

 

19 And when you come near the children of Tribal (Ammon), distress them not, nor meddle with them: for I will not give you of the land of the children of Tribal (Ammon) any possession; because I have given it to the children of Covering (Lot) for a possession.

 

20 That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in old time, and the Tribals (Ammoites) call them Plotters (Zamzummims);

 

21 A people great, and many, and tall, as the Long-Necks (Anakims); but I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead:

 

22 As he did to the children of Hairy (Esau), which dwelt in Shaggy (Seir), when he destroyed the Cave Dwellers (Horims) from before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead even to this day:

 

23 From the Ruins (Avims) which dwelt in Villages (Hazerim) to The Strong (Azzah), and the Crowns (Caphtorims,) which came forth out of A Crown (Caphtor), they destroyed them and dwelt in their stead.

 

24 Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the river Rushing Stream (Arnon): behold, I have given into your hand Warrior (Sihon) the Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), king of Stronghold (Heshbon), and his land: begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle.

 

25 This day will I begin to put the dread of you and the fear of you upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear the report of you, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of you.

 

26 So I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Eastern (Kedemoth) to Warrior (Sihon) king of Stronghold (Heshbon) with words of peace, saying,

 

27 Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will neither turn to the right hand nor to the left.

 

28 You shall sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that I may drink: only I will pass through on my feet;

 

29 As the children of Hairy (Esau) which dwell in Shaggy (Seir), and the Of His Father’s (Moabites) which dwell in City (Ar), did to me;) until I shall pass over the Descender (Jordan) into the land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) gives us.

 

30 But Warrior (Sihon) king of Stronghold (Heshbon) would not let us pass by him: for I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that He might deliver him into your hand, as appears this day.

 

31 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Behold, I have begun to give Warrior (Sihon) and his land before you: begin to possess, that you may inherit his land.

 

32 Then Warrior (Sihon) came out against us, he and all his people, to fight at Trodden Down (Jahaz).

 

33 And I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) delivered him before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.

 

34 And we took all his cities at that time and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain:

 

35 Only the cattle we took for a prey to ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.

 

36 From Ruins (Aroer), which is by the brink of the river of Rushing Stream (Arnon), and from the city that is by the river, even to Rocky Region (Gilead), there was not one city too strong for us: I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) delivered all to us:

 

37 Only to the land of the children of Tribal (Ammon) you did not come, nor to any place of the river Emptying (Jabbok), nor to the cities in the mountains, nor to whatsoever I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) forbad us.

These Are the Words (Deuteronomy) 1

 1 These are the words which Drawn (Moses) spoke to all God Prevails (Israel) on this side of The Descender (Jordan) in the wilderness, on the plain over against the Red Sea, between The Place of the Caverns (Paran), and White Lime (Tophel), and White (Laban), and Settlement (Hazeroth), and Enough Gold (Dizahab).

 

2 (There are eleven days' journey from Desert (Horeb) by the way of Mount Shaggy (Seir) to Holy (Kadeshbarnea).)

 

3 It came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Drawn (Moses) spoke to the children of God Prevails (Israel), according to all that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) had given him in commandment to them;

 

4 After he had slain Warrior (Sihon) the king of the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), which dwelt in Stronghold (Heshbon), and Long-Necked (Og) the king of Fruitful (Bashan), which dwelt at Star (Astaroth) in Goodly Pasture (Edrei):

 

5 On this side The Descender (Jordan), in the land of Of His Father (Moab), Drawn (Moses) began to declare this law, saying:

 

6 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) spoke to us in Desert (Horeb), saying: You have dwelt long enough on this mount:

 

7 Turn and take your journey, and go to the mount of the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), and to all the places near there, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), and to Whiteness (Lebanon), to the great river, the river Fruitfulness (Euphrates).

 

8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) swore to your fathers, Father of a Multitude (Abraham), Laughter (Isaac), and Heel-Grabber (Jacob), to give to them and to their seed after them.

 

9 And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

 

10 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) hats multiplied you, and, behold, you are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

 

11 (I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym) of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as you are, and bless you, as He has promised you!)

 

12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

 

13 Take wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

 

14 You answered me and said: The thing which you have spoken is good for us to do.

 

15 So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

 

16 At that time, I charged your judges, saying: Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.

 

17 You shall not respect persons in judgment; but you shall hear the small as well as the great; you shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God’s ('Elohiym): and the case that is too hard for you, bring it to me, and I will hear it.

 

18 I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.

 

19 When we departed from Desert (Horeb), we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which you saw by the way of the mountain of the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) commanded us; and we came to Holy (Kadeshbarnea).

 

20 There, I said to you: You have come to the mountain of the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) gives to us.

 

21 Behold, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) Your God has set the land before you: go up and possess it, as I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym) of your fathers has said to you; fear not, neither be discouraged.

 

22 You came near to me every one of you, and said: We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

 

23 And the saying pleased me well: so, I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

 

24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.

 

25 They took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) gives us.

 

26 Notwithstanding you would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym):

 

27 You murmured in your tents, and said: Because I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) hated us, He has brought us forth out of the land of Double Straights (Egypt), to deliver us into the hand of the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), to destroy us.

 

28 Why should we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying: The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; moreover, we have seen the sons of the Long-Necks (Anakims) there.

 

29 Then I said to you: Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

 

30 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) who goes before you, He shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Double Straights (Egypt) before your eyes;

 

31 And in the wilderness, where you have seen how that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym) carries you, as a man bears his son, in all the way that you went, until you came into this place.

 

32 Yet in this thing you did not believe I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) your God ('Elohiym),

 

33 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by what way you should go, and in a cloud by day.

 

34 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) heard the voice of your words, and was angry, and swore, saying:

 

35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I swore to give to your fathers.

 

36 Save Dog (Caleb) the son of He Will Face (Jephunneh); he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he has trodden upon, and to his children, because he has wholly followed I AM (the LORD, Yehovah).

 

37 Also I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) was angry with me for your sakes, saying: You also shall not go in either.

 

38 But I AM is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity (Nun), who stands before you, he shall go in: encourage him: for he shall cause God Prevails (Israel) to inherit it.

 

39 Moreover your little ones, which you said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in, and to them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

 

40 But as for you, turn and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

 

41 Then you answered and said to me: We have sinned against I AM (the LORD, Yehovah, we will go up and fight, according to all that I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym) commanded us. And when you had girded on every man his weapons of war, you were ready to go up into the hill.

 

42 But I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said to me: Say to them. Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest you be smitten before your enemies.

 

43 So I spoke to you; and you would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), and went presumptuously up into the hill.

 

44 And the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorites), which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Shaggy (Seir), even to Devotion (Hormah)

 

45 And you returned and wept before I AM (the LORD, Yehovah); but I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear to you.

 

46 So you abode in Holy (Kadesh) many days, according to the days that you abode there.

Numbers 36

 1 The chief fathers of the families of the children of Rocky Region (Gilead), the son of Sold (Machir), the son of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), of the families of the sons of I AM Will Add (Joseph), came near and spoke before Drawn (Moses), and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of God Prevails (Israel):

 

2 They said, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of God Prevails (Israel): and my lord was commanded by I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) to give the inheritance of First-Born (Zelophehad) our brother to his daughters.

 

3 If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of God Prevails (Israel), then their inheritance shall be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereto they are received: so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.

 

4 When the jubilee of the children of God Prevails (Israel) shall be, then shall their inheritance be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereto they are received: so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.

 

5 So Drawn (Moses) commanded the children of God Prevails (Israel) according to the word of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), saying: The tribe of the sons of I AM Will Add (Joseph) has said well.

 

6 This is the thing which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commands concerning the daughters of First-Born (Zelophehad): Let them marry to whom they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.

 

7 So the inheritance of the children of God Prevails (Israel) shall not move from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of God Prevails (Israel) shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

 

8 Every daughter, that possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of God Prevails (Israel), shall be wife to one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of God Prevails (Israel) may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.

 

9 Neither shall the inheritance move from one tribe to another tribe, but every one of the tribes of the children of God Prevails (Israel) shall keep his own inheritance.

 

10 As I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded Drawn (Moses), so did the daughters of First-born (Zelophehad):

 

11 For Disease (Mahlah), Favorable (Tirzah), Partridge (Hoglah), Queen (Milcah), and Rest (Noah), the daughters of First-born (Zelophehad), were married to their father’s brothers' sons:

 

12 They were married into the families of the sons of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) the son of I AM Will Add (Joseph), and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.

 

13 These are the commandments and the judgments, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded by the hand of Drawn (Moses) to the children of God Prevails (Israel) in the plains of Of His Father (Moab) by the Descender (Jordan) near Its Moon (Jericho).

Numbers 35

 1 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to Drawn (Moses) in the plains of Of His Father (Moab) by The Descender (Jordan) near Its Moon (Jericho), saying:

 

2 Command the children of God Prevails (Israel), that they give to the Children of Joined To (Levites) of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in. You shall give also to the Children of Joined To (Levites) suburbs for the cities round about them.

 

3 The cities shall be for them to dwell in, and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.

 

4 The suburbs of the cities, which you shall give to the Children of Joined To (Levites), shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.

 

5 You shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in the midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.

 

6 Among the cities which you shall give to the Children of Joined To (Levites) there shall be six cities for refuge, which you shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee there: and to them, you shall add forty-two cities.

 

7 So all the cities which you shall give to the Children of Joined To (Levites) shall be forty-eight cities, with their suburbs.

 

8 The cities which you shall give shall be of the possession of the children of God Prevails (Israel): from them that have many you shall give many; but from them that have few, you shall give few: every one shall give of his cities to the Children of Joined To (Levites) according to his inheritance which he inherits.

 

9 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to Drawn (Moses), saying:

 

10 Speak to the children of God Prevails (Israel), and say to them: When you come over Descender (Jordan) into the land of Canaan;

 

11 Then you shall appoint cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee there, who kills any person unintentionally.

 

12 They shall be to you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer dies not until he stands before the congregation in judgment.

 

13 These six cities you give shall be for refuge.

 

14 You shall give three cities on this side Descender (Jordan), and three cities the land of Canaan, which shall be cities of refuge.

 

15 These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of God Prevails (Israel), and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that kills any person unintentionally may flee there.

 

16 If he hits him with an instrument of iron, so that he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

 

17 If he hits him by throwing a stone, and he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

 

18 Or if he hits him with a hand weapon of wood, wherewith he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

 

19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meets him, he shall slay him.

 

20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he dies;

 

21 Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he dies: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer when he meets him.

 

22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him anything without laying of wait,

 

23 Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, that he dies, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:

 

24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:

 

25 And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, where he fled: and he shall abide in it to the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.

 

26 But if the slayer shall at any time come outside the border of the city of his refuge, which he fled to;

 

27 And the revenger of blood finds him outside the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:

 

28 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return to the land of his possession.

 

29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

 

30 Whosoever kills any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.

 

31 Moreover you shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.

 

32 You shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.

 

33 So you shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood defiles the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.

 

34 Defile not the land which you shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) dwells among the children of God Prevails (Israel).

Numbers 34

 1 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to Drawn (Moses), saying:

 

2 Command the children of God Prevails (Israel) and say to them: When you come into the land of Humbled One (Canaan); (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, all of the land of Humbled One (Canaan) with the coasts thereof:)

 

3 Then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Flat (Zin) along by the coast of Red (Edom). Your south border shall be the outmost coast of the salt sea eastward:

 

4 Your border shall turn from the south to the ascent of Scorpion Pass (Akrabbim), and pass on to Flat (Zin); from there it shall be from the south to Holy (Kadeshbarnea), and shall go on to Enclosure of Glory (Hazaraddar), and pass on to Strong (Azmon):

 

5 And the border shall run from Strong (Azmon) to the river of Double Straights (Egypt), and continue to the sea.

 

6 As for the western border, you shall have the great sea for a border: this shall be your west border.

 

7 This shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall point to The Mountain (Hor):

 

8 From The Mountain (Hor) you shall point out your border to the entrance of Fortress (Hamath), and from there the border shall be to Mountain Side (Zedad):

 

9 Then the border shall go on to Fragrance (Ziphron), and the goings out of it shall be at Village of Fountains (Hazarenan): this shall be your north border.

 

10 You shall point out your east border from Village of Fountains (Hazarenan) to Bald (Shepham):

 

11 Then the border shall go down from Bald (Shepham) to Fertility (Riblah), on the east side of Spring (Ain); and the border shall descend, and shall reach to the side of the Sea of Harps (Chinnereth) eastward:

 

12 Then the border shall go down to Descender (Jordan), and back to the salt sea: this shall be your land with the borders thereof roundabout.

 

13 So Drawn (Moses) commanded the children of Israel, saying: This is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded to give to the nine tribes, and to the half-tribe:

 

14 For the tribe of the children of Behold a Son (Reuben) according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of the children of Troop (Gad) according to the house of their fathers, have received their inheritance; and half the tribe of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) have received their inheritance:

 

15 The two tribes and the half-tribe have received their inheritance on this side Descender (Jordan) near Its Moon (Jericho) eastward, toward the sun rising.

 

16 Then I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) spoke to Drawn (Moses), saying:

 

17 These are the names of the men who shall divide the land to you: God Has Helped (Eleazar)the priest, and Jehovah is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity (Nun).

 

18 You shall take one prince of every tribe to divide the land by inheritance.

 

19 And the names of the men are these: Of the tribe of Praised (Judah), Dog (Caleb) the son of He Will Face (Jephunneh).

 

20 Of the tribe of the children of Heard (Simeon), His Name is El (Shemuel) the son of My Kinsman is Majesty (Ammihud).

 

21 Of the tribe of Son of the Right Hand (Benjamin), My God Has Loved (Elidad) the son of Confidence (Chislon).

 

22 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Judge (Dan), Wasting (Bukki) the son of He is Exiled (Jogli).

 

23 The prince of the children of I AM Will Add (Joseph), for the tribe of the children of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), Favored of God (Hanniel) the son of Holy Garment (Ephod).

 

24 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Double Ash-Heap: Doubly Fruitful (Ephraim), Raised of God (Kemuel) the son of Judicial (Shiphtan).

 

25 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Exalted (Zebulun), My God Has Protected (Elizaphan) the son of Delicate (Parnach).

 

26 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Recompense (Issachar), God Delivers (Paltiel) the son of Very Strong (Azzan).

 

27 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Happy (Asher), Brother of Majesty (Ahihud) the son of Peaceful (Shelomi).

 

28 And the prince of the tribe of the children of Wrestling (Naphtali), Ransomed by God (Pedahel) the son of My Kinsman is Majesty (Ammihud).

 

29 These are they whom I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded to divide the inheritance to the children of God Prevails (Israel) in the land of Humbled One (Canaan).
