05_DEU_04_01 now therefore hearken , O Israel , unto the statutes And unto the judgments , which I teach you , for to do [ them ] , that ye may live , And go in And possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you .
05_DEU_04_02 ye shall not add unto the word which I command you , neither shall ye diminish [ ought ] from it , that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you .
05_DEU_04_03 your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baalpeor : for all the men that followed Baalpeor , the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from among you .
05_DEU_04_04 but ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God [ are ] alive every one of you this day .
05_DEU_04_05 behold , I have taught you statutes And judgments , even as the LORD my God commanded me , that ye should do So in the land whither ye go to possess it .
05_DEU_04_06 keep therefore And do [ them ] ; for this [ Is ] your wisdom And your understanding in the sight of the nations , which shall hear all These statutes , And say , surely this great nation [ Is ] A wise And understanding people .
05_DEU_04_07 for what nation [ Is there So ] great , who [ hath ] God [ So ] nigh unto them , as the LORD our God [ Is ] in all [ things that ] we call upon him [ for ] ?
05_DEU_04_08 And what nation [ Is there So ] great , that hath statutes And judgments [ So ] righteous as all this law , which I set before you this day ?
05_DEU_04_09 only take heed to thyself , And keep thy soul diligently , lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen , And lest they Depart from thy heart all the days of thy life : but teach them thy sons , And thy sons' sons ;
05_DEU_04_10 [ specially ] the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb , when the LORD said unto me , gather me the people together , And I will make them hear my words , that they may learn to Fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth , And [ that ] they may teach their children .
05_DEU_04_11 And ye came near And stood under the mountain ; And the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven , with darkness , clouds , And thick darkness .
05_DEU_04_12 And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the fire : ye heard the voice of the words , but saw no similitude ; only [ ye heard ] A voice .
05_DEU_04_13 And he declared unto you his covenant , which he commanded you to perform , [ even ] ten commandments ; And he wrote them upon two tables of stone .
05_DEU_04_14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes And judgments , that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it .
05_DEU_04_15 take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves ; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day [ that ] the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire :
05_DEU_04_16 lest ye corrupt [ yourselves ] , And make you A graven image , the similitude of any figure , the likeness of male or female ,
05_DEU_04_17 the likeness of any beast that [ Is ] on the earth , the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air ,
05_DEU_04_18 the likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground , the likeness of any fish that [ Is ] in the waters beneath the earth :
05_DEU_04_19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven , And when thou seest the sun , And the moon , And the stars , [ even ] all the host of heaven , shouldest be driven to worship them , And serve them , which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven .
05_DEU_04_20 but the LORD hath taken you , And brought you forth out of the iron furnace , [ even ] out of Egypt , to be unto him A people of inheritance , as [ ye are ] this day .
05_DEU_04_21 furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes , And sware that I should not go over Jordan , And that I should not go in unto that good land , which the LORD thy God giveth thee [ for ] an inheritance :
05_DEU_04_22 but I must die in this land , I must not go over Jordan : but ye shall go over , And possess that good land .
05_DEU_04_23 take heed unto yourselves , lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God , which he made with you , And make you A graven image , [ or ] the likeness of any [ thing ] , which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee .
05_DEU_04_24 for the LORD thy God [ Is ] A consuming fire , [ even ] A jealous God .
05_DEU_04_25 when thou shalt beget children , And children's children , And ye shall have remained long in the land , And shall corrupt [ yourselves ] , And make A graven image , [ or ] the likeness of any [ thing ] , And shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God , to provoke him to anger :
05_DEU_04_26 I call heaven And earth to witness against you this day , that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it ; ye shall not prolong [ your ] days upon it , but shall utterly be destroyed .
05_DEU_04_27 And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations , And ye shall be left few in number among the heathen , whither the LORD shall lead you .
05_DEU_04_28 And there ye shall serve gods , the work of men's hands , wood And stone , which neither see , nor hear , nor eat , nor smell .
05_DEU_04_29 but if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God , thou shalt find [ him ] , if thou seek him with all thy heart And with all thy soul .
05_DEU_04_30 when thou art in tribulation , And all These things are come upon thee , [ even ] in the latter days , if thou turn to the LORD thy God , And shalt be obedient unto his voice ;
05_DEU_04_31 [ for the LORD thy God [ Is ] A merciful God ; ] he will not forsake thee , neither destroy thee , nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them .
05_DEU_04_32 for ask now of the days that are past , which were before thee , since the day that God created man upon the earth , And [ ask ] from the one side of heaven unto the other , whether there hath been [ any such thing ] as this great thing [ Is ] , or hath been heard like it ?
05_DEU_04_33 did [ ever ] people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire , as thou hast heard , And live ?
05_DEU_04_34 or hath God assayed to go [ And ] take him A nation from the midst of [ another ] nation , by temptations , by signs , And by wonders , And by war , And by A mighty hand , And by A stretched out arm , And by great terrors , according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes ?
05_DEU_04_35 unto thee it was showed , that thou mightest know that the LORD he [ Is ] God ; [ there Is ] none else beside him .
05_DEU_04_36 out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice , that he might instruct thee : And upon earth he showed thee his great fire ; And thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire .
05_DEU_04_37 And because he loved thy fathers , therefore he chose their seed after them , And brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt ;
05_DEU_04_38 to drive out nations from before thee greater And mightier than thou [ art ] , to bring thee in , to give thee their land [ for ] an inheritance , as [ it Is ] this day .
05_DEU_04_39 know therefore this day , And consider [ it ] in thine heart , that the LORD he [ Is ] God in heaven above , And upon the earth beneath : [ there Is ] none else .
05_DEU_04_40 thou shalt keep therefore his statutes , And his commandments , which I command thee this day , that it may go Well with thee , And with thy children after thee , And that thou mayest prolong [ thy ] days upon the earth , which the LORD thy God giveth thee , for ever .
05_DEU_04_41 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sun rising ;
05_DEU_04_42 that the slayer might flee thither , which should kill his neighbour unawares , And hated him not in times past ; And that fleeing unto one of These cities he might live :
05_DEU_04_43 [ namely ] , Bezer in the wilderness , in the plain country , of the Reubenites ; And Ramoth in Gilead , of the Gadites ; And Golan in Bashan , of the Manassites .
05_DEU_04_44 And this [ Is ] the law which Moses set before the children of Israel :
05_DEU_04_45 These [ are ] the testimonies , And the statutes , And the judgments , which Moses spake unto the children of Israel , after they came forth out of Egypt ,
05_DEU_04_46 on this side Jordan , in the valley over against Bethpeor , in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites , who dwelt at Heshbon , whom Moses And the children of Israel smote , after they were come forth out of Egypt :
05_DEU_04_47 And they possessed his land , And the land of Og king of Bashan , two kings of the Amorites , which [ were ] on this side Jordan toward the sun rising ;
05_DEU_04_48 from Aroer , which [ Is ] by the bank of the river Arnon , even unto mount Sion , which [ Is ] Hermon ,
05_DEU_04_49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward , even unto the sea of the plain , under the springs of Pisgah .
