{\MT DEUTERONOMY


\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}These
{\ADD{are}} the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on this side Jordan in the desert towards the
west near the Red Sea, between Pharan Tophol, and Lobon, and Aulon, and the gold works.

\VS{2}{\ADD{It is}} a journey of eleven days from Choreb to mount Seir as far as
Cades Barne.

\VS{3}And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first
{\ADD{day}} of the month, Moses spoke to all the children of Israel, according to all things which
the Lord commanded him for them:

\VS{4}after he had struck Seon king of the Amorites who lived in Esebon, and Og the
king of Basan who lived in Astaroth and in Edrain;

\VS{5}beyond Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,

\VS{6}The Lord your God spoke to us in Choreb, saying, Let it suffice you
\FTNT{*}{{\FR 1:6 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{to dwell.
}}} to have lived
{\ADD{so long}} in this mountain.

\VS{7}Turn you⌃ and depart and enter into the mountain of the Amorites, and
{\ADD{go}} to all that dwell near about Araba, to the mountain and the plain and to the south, and
the land of the Chananites near the sea, and Antilibanus, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.

\VS{8}Behold,
{\ADD{God}} has delivered the land before you; go in and inherit the land, which I swore to your fathers,
Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give it to them and to their seed after them.

\VS{9}And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I shall not be able by myself to bear
you.

\VS{10}The Lord your God has multiplied you, and, behold, you⌃ are today as the stars
of heaven for multitude.

\VS{11}The Lord God of your fathers
\FTNT{†}{{\FR 1:11 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{increase you.
}}} add to you a thousand-fold more than you are, and bless you as he has spoken to you.

\VS{12}How shall I alone be able to bear your labour, and your burden, and your gainsayings?

\VS{13}\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 1:13 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{give.
}}} Take to yourselves wise and understanding and prudent men for your tribes, and I will set your
leaders over you.

\VS{14}And you⌃ answered me and said, The thing which you have told us
{\ADD{is}} good to do.

\VS{15}So I took of you wise and understanding and prudent men, and I set them to
rule over you as rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, and rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens,
and
\FTNT{§}{{\FR 1:15 }{\FT{Perhaps, recorders:
}}{\FL{more lit.
}}{\FT{instructors in reading and writing.
}}} officers to your judges.

\VS{16}And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear
{\ADD{causes}} between your brethren, and judge rightly between a man and
{\ADD{his}} brother, and the
\FTNT{**}{{\FR 1:16 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{his stranger.
}}} stranger that is with him.

\VS{17}You shall not have respect to
\FTNT{††}{{\FR 1:17 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{a face.
}}} persons in judgement, you shall judge
\FTNT{‡‡}{{\FR 1:17 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{according to small and great.
}}} small and great equally; you shall not shrink from before the person of a man, for the judgement
is God's; and whatever matter shall be too hard for you, you⌃ shall bring it to me, and I will hear it.

\VS{18}And I charged upon you at that time all the commands which you⌃ shall perform.

\VS{19}And we departed from Choreb, and went through all that great wilderness and
terrible, which you⌃ saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite, as the Lord our God charged us, and
we came as far as Cades Barne.

\VS{20}And I said to you, You⌃ have come as far as the mountain of the Amorite, which
the Lord our God gives to you:

\VS{21}behold, the Lord your God has delivered to us the land before you: go up and
inherit it as the Lord God of your fathers said to you; fear not, neither be afraid.

\VS{22}And you⌃ all came to me, and said, Let us send men before us, and let them
go up to the land for us; and let them bring back to us a report of the way by which we shall go up, and
of the cities into which we shall enter.

\VS{23}And the saying pleased me: and I took of you twelve men, one man of a tribe.

\VS{24}And they turned and went up to the mountain, and they came as far as the valley
of the cluster, and surveyed it.

\VS{25}And they took in their hands of the fruit of the land, and brought it to you,
and said, The land is good which the Lord our God gives us.

\VS{26}Yet you⌃ would not go up, but rebelled against the words of the Lord our God.

\VS{27}And you⌃ murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he has
brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us.

\VS{28}Whither do we go up? and your brethren drew away your heart, saying,
{\ADD{It is a}} great nation and populous, and mightier than we; and
{\ADD{there are}} cities great and walled up to heaven: moreover we saw there the sons of the giants.

\VS{29}And I said to you, Fear not, neither be you⌃ afraid of them;

\VS{30}the Lord your God who goes before your face, he shall fight against them together
with you effectually, according to all that he wrought for you in the land of Egypt;

\VS{31}and in this wilderness which you⌃ saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite;
\FTNT{§§}{{\FR 1:31 }{\FT{See Acts 13. 18, and note in the margin of English Bible on ἐτροφόρησεν.
}}} how the Lord your God will bear you as a nursling, as if any man should nurse his child, through
all the way which you⌃ have gone until you⌃ came to this place.

\VS{32}And in this matter you⌃ believed not the Lord our God,

\VS{33}who goes before you in the way to choose you a place, guiding you in fire
by night, showing you the way by which you⌃ go, and a cloud by day.

\VS{34}And the Lord heard the voice of your words, and being greatly provoked he
swore, saying,

\VS{35}\FTNT{***}{{\FR 1:35 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{If one.
}}} Not one of these men shall see this good land, which I swore to their fathers,

\VS{36}except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, he shall see it; and to him I will give
the land on which he went up, and to his sons, because he
\FTNT{†††}{{\FR 1:36 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{followed closely after the Lord.
}}} attended to the things of the Lord.

\VS{37}And the Lord was angry with me for your sake, saying, Neither shall you by
any means enter therein.

\VS{38}Joshua the son of Naue, who stands by you, he shall enter in there; do you
strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

\VS{39}And every young child who this day knows not good or evil, —they shall enter
therein, and to them I will give it, and they shall inherit it.

\VS{40}And you⌃ turned and marched into the wilderness, in the way by the Red Sea.

\VS{41}And you⌃ answered and said, We have sinned before the Lord our God; we will
go up and fight according to all that the Lord our God has commanded us: and having taken every one his
weapons of war, and being gathered together, you⌃
\FTNT{‡‡‡}{{\FR 1:41 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{go up.
}}} went up to the mountain.

\VS{42}And the Lord said to me, Tell them, You⌃ shall not go up, neither shall you⌃
fight, for I am not with you; thus shall you⌃ not be destroyed before your enemies.

\VS{43}And I spoke to you, and you⌃ did not listen to me; and you⌃ transgressed the
commandment of the Lord; and you⌃ forced your way and went up into the mountain.

\VS{44}And the Amorite who lived in that mountain came out to meet you, and pursued
you as bees do, and wounded you from Seir to Herma.

\VS{45}And you⌃ sat down and wept before the Lord our God, and the Lord listened
not to your voice, neither did he take heed to you.

\VS{46}And you⌃ lived in Cades many days, as many days as you⌃ lived
{\ADD{there}}.



\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And we turned and departed into the wilderness, by the way of the
Red Sea, as the Lord spoke to me, and we compassed mount Seir many days.

\VS{2}And the Lord said to me,

\VS{3}\FTNT{*}{{\FR 2:3 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{Let it suffice you to compass.
}}} You⌃ have compassed this mount long enough; turn therefore towards the north.

\VS{4}And charge the people, saying, You⌃ are going through the borders of your brethren
the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they shall fear you, and dread you greatly.

\VS{5}Do not engage in war against them, for I will not give you of their land even
enough to set your foot upon, for I have given mount Seir to the children of Esau as an inheritance.

\VS{6}Buy food of them for money and eat, and you⌃ shall receive water of them by
measure for money, and drink.

\VS{7}For the Lord our God has blessed you in every work of your hands. Consider how
you went through that great and terrible wilderness: behold, the Lord your God
{\ADD{has been}} with you forty years; you did not lack any thing.

\VS{8}And we passed by our brethren the children of Esau, who lived in Seir, by the
way of Araba from Aelon and from Gesion Gaber; and we turned and passed by the way of the desert of Moab.

\VS{9}And the Lord said to me, Do not you⌃ quarrel with the Moabites, and do not engage
in war with them; for I will not give you of their land for an inheritance, for I have given Aroer to
the children of Lot to inherit.

\VS{10}Formerly the Ommin lived in it, a great and numerous nation and powerful,
like the Enakim.

\VS{11}These also shall be accounted
\FTNT{†}{{\FR 2:11 }{\FQA{Heb. giants.
}}} Raphain like the Enakim; and the Moabites call them Ommin.

\VS{12}And the Chorrhite lived in Seir before, and the sons of Esau destroyed them,
and utterly consumed them from before them; and they lived in their place, as Israel did to the land of
his inheritance, which the Lord gave to them.

\VS{13}Now then, arise you⌃,
{\ADD{said I}}, and depart, and cross the valley of Zaret.

\VS{14}And the days in which we travelled from Cades Barne till we crossed the valley
of Zaret,
{\ADD{were}} thirty and eight years, until the whole generation of the men of war failed, dying out
of the camp, as the Lord God swore to them.

\VS{15}And the hand of the Lord was upon them to destroy them out of the midst of
the camp, until they were consumed.

\VS{16}And it came to pass when all the men of war dying out of the midst of the
people had fallen,

\VS{17}that the Lord spoke to me, saying,

\VS{18}You shall pass over this day the borders of Moab
\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 2:18 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{even Aroer.
}}} to Aroer;

\VS{19}and you⌃ shall draw near to the children of Amman: do not quarrel with them,
nor wage war with them; for I will not give you of the land of the children of Amman for an inheritance,
because I have given it to the children of Lot for an inheritance.

\VS{20}It shall be accounted a land of Raphain, for the Raphain lived there before,
and the Ammanites call them Zochommin.

\VS{21}A great nation and populous, and mightier than you, as also the Enakim: yet
the Lord destroyed them from before them, and they inherited
{\ADD{their land}}, and they lived
{\ADD{there}} instead of them until this day.

\VS{22}As they did to the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, even as they destroyed
the Chorrhite from before them, and inherited
\FTNT{§}{{\FR 2:22 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{them.
}}} their country, and lived
{\ADD{therein}} instead of them until this day.

\VS{23}And the Evites who dwell in Asedoth to Gaza, and the Cappadocians who came
out of Cappadocia, destroyed them, and lived in their room.

\VS{24}Now then arise and depart, and pass over the valley of Arnon: behold, I have
delivered into your hands Seon the king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land: begin to inherit
{\ADD{it}}: engage in war with him this day.

\VS{25}Begin to put your terror and your fear on the face of all the nations under
heaven, who shall be troubled when they have heard your name, and shall be in anguish
\FTNT{**}{{\FR 2:25 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{for fear of you.
}}{\FL{Hebraism.
}}} before you.

\VS{26}And I sent ambassadors from the wilderness of Kedamoth to Seon king of Esebon
with peaceful words, saying,

\VS{27}I will pass through your land: I will go by the road, I will not turn aside
to the right hand or to the left.

\VS{28}You shall give me food for money, and I will eat; and you shall give me water
for money, and I will drink; I will only go through on my feet:

\VS{29}as the sons of Esau did to me, who lived in Seir, and the Moabites who lived
in Aroer, until I shall have passed Jordan into the land which the Lord our God gives us.

\VS{30}And Seon king of Esebon would not that we should pass by him, because the
Lord our God hardened his spirit, and made his heart stubborn, that he might be delivered into your hands,
as on this day.

\VS{31}And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have begun to deliver before you Seon the
king of Esebon the Amorite, and his land, and do you begin to inherit his land.

\VS{32}And Seon the king of Esebon came forth to meet us, he and all his people to
war at Jassa.

\VS{33}And the Lord our God delivered him before our face, and we struck him, and
his sons, and all his people.

\VS{34}And we took possession of all his cities at that time, and we utterly destroyed
every city in succession, and their wives, and their children; we left no living prey.

\VS{35}Only we took the cattle captive, and took the spoil of the cities.

\VS{36}From Aroer, which is by the brink of the brook of Arnon, and the city which
is in the valley, and as far as the mount of Galaad; there was not a city which escaped us: the Lord our
God delivered all of them into our hands.

\VS{37}Only we did not draw near to the children of Amman, even all the parts bordering
on the brook Jaboc, and the cities in the mountain country, as the Lord our God charged us.



\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And we turned and went by the way leading to Basan; and Og the
king of Basan came out to meet us, he and all his people, to battle at Edraim.

\VS{2}And the Lord said to me, Fear him not, for I have delivered him, and all his
people, and all his land, into your hands; and you shall do to him as you did to Seon king of the Amorites
who lived in Esebon.

\VS{3}And the Lord our God delivered him into our hands, even Og the king of Basan,
and all his people; and we struck him until we left none of his seed.

\VS{4}And we mastered all his cities at that time; there was not a city which we took
not from them; sixty cities, all the country round about Argob, belonging to king Og in Basan:

\VS{5}all strong cities, lofty walls, gates and bars; besides the very many cities
of the Pherezites.

\VS{6}We utterly destroyed
{\ADD{them}} as we dealt with Seon the king of Esebon, so we utterly destroyed every city in order,
and the women and the children,

\VS{7}and all the cattle; and we took for a prey to ourselves the spoil of the cities.

\VS{8}And we took at that time the land out of the hands of the two kings of the Amorites,
who were beyond Jordan,
{\ADD{extending}} from the brook of Arnon even to Aermon.

\VS{9}The Phoenicians call Aermon Sanior, but the Amorite has called it Sanir.

\VS{10}All the cities of Misor, and all Galaad, and all Basan as far as Elcha and
Edraim, cities of the kingdom of Og in Basan.

\VS{11}For only Og the king of Basan was left of the Raphain: behold, his bed
{\ADD{was}} a bed of iron; behold,
{\ADD{it is}} in the
\FTNT{*}{{\FR 3:11 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{acropolis, citadel: or extremity of the land of the Ammonites.
}}} chief city of the children of Ammon; the length of it
{\ADD{is}} nine cubits, and the breadth of it four cubits, according to the cubit of a man.

\VS{12}And we inherited that land at that time from Aroer, which is by the border
of the torrent Arnon, and half the mount of Galaad; and I gave his cities to Ruben and to Gad.

\VS{13}And the rest of Galaad, and all Basan the kingdom of Og I gave to the half-tribe
of Manasse, and all the country round about Argob, all that Basan; it shall be accounted the land of Raphain.

\VS{14}And Jair the son of Manasse took all the country round about Argob as far
as the borders of Gargasi and Machathi: he called them by his name Basan Thavoth Jair until this day.

\VS{15}And to Machir I gave Galaad.

\VS{16}And to Ruben and to Gad I gave
{\ADD{the land}} under Galaad as far as the brook of Arnon, the border between the brook and as far
as Jaboc; the brook
{\ADD{is}} the border to the children Amman.

\VS{17}And Araba and Jordan
{\ADD{are}} the boundary of Machanareth, even to the sea of Araba, the salt sea under Asedoth Phasga
eastward.

\VS{18}And I charged you at that time, saying, The Lord your God has given you this
land by lot; arm yourselves, every one
{\ADD{that is}} powerful, and go before your brethren the children of Israel.

\VS{19}Only your wives and your children and your cattle (I know that you⌃ have much
cattle), let them dwell in your cities which I have given you;

\VS{20}until the Lord your God give your brethren rest, as also he has given to you,
and they also shall inherit the land, which the Lord our God gives them on the other side of Jordan; then
you⌃ shall return, each one to his inheritance which I have given you.

\VS{21}And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Your eyes have seen all things,
which the Lord our God did to these two kings: so shall the Lord our God do to all the kingdoms against
which you cross over there.

\VS{22}You⌃ shall not be afraid of them, because the Lord our God himself shall fight
for you.

\VS{23}And I implored the Lord at that time, saying,

\VS{24}Lord God, you have begun to show to your servant your strength, and your power,
and your mighty hand, and your high arm: for what God is there in heaven or on the earth, who will do
as you have done, and according to your might?

\VS{25}I will therefore go over and see this good land that is beyond Jordan, this
good mountain and Antilibanus.

\VS{26}And the Lord because of you did not regard me, and listened not to me; and
the Lord said to me, Let it suffice you, speak not of this matter to me any more.

\VS{27}Go up to the top of the
\FTNT{†}{{\FR 3:27 }{\FL{i. e.
}}{\FT{Pisgah.
}}} quarried rock, and look with your eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward,
and behold
{\ADD{it}} with your eyes, for you shall not go over this Jordan.

\VS{28}And charge Joshua, and strengthen him, and encourage him; for he shall go
before the face of this people, and he shall give them the inheritance of all the land which you have
seen.

\VS{29}And we abode in the valley near the house of Phogor.



\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And now, Israel, hear the ordinances and judgements, all that I
teach you this day to do: that you⌃ may live, and be multiplied, and that you⌃ may go in and inherit the
land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives you.

\VS{2}You⌃ shall not add to the word which I command you, and you⌃ shall not take
from it: keep the commandments of the Lord our God, all that I command you this day.

\VS{3}Your eyes have seen all that the Lord our God did in
{\ADD{the case of}} Beel-phegor; for every man that went after Beel-phegor, the Lord your God has utterly
destroyed him from amongst you.

\VS{4}But you⌃ that kept close to the Lord your God are all alive today.

\VS{5}Behold, I have shown you ordinances and judgements as the Lord commanded me,
that you⌃ should do so in the land into which you⌃ go to inherit it.

\VS{6}And you⌃ shall keep and do them: for this is your wisdom and understanding before

{\ADD{is so}} great, which has God so near to them as the Lord our God
{\ADD{is}} in all things in whatever we may call upon him?

{\ADD{is so}} great, which has righteous ordinances and judgements according to all this law, which

depart from your heart all the days of your life; and you shall teach your sons and your sons' sons,

in the day of the assembly; for the Lord said to me, Gather the people to me, and let them hear my words,
that they may learn to fear me all the days which they live upon the earth, and they shall teach their
sons.

\VS{11}And you⌃ drew near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burnt with
fire up to heaven:
{\ADD{there was}} darkness, blackness,
{\ADD{and}} tempest.

\VS{12}And the Lord spoke to you out of the midst of the fire a voice of words, which
you⌃ heard: and you⌃ saw no likeness, only
{\ADD{you⌃ heard}} a voice.

\VS{13}And he announced to you his covenant, which he commanded you to keep, even
the ten
\FTNT{†}{{\FR 4:13 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{words or sayings.
}}} commandments; and he wrote them on two tables of stone.

\VS{14}And the Lord commanded me at that time, to teach you ordinances and judgements,
that you⌃ should do them on the land, into which you⌃ go to inherit it.

\VS{15}And take good heed to your hearts, for you⌃ saw no similitude in the day in
which the Lord spoke to you in Choreb in the mountain out of the midst of the fire:

\VS{16}lest you⌃ transgress, and make to yourselves a carved image, any kind of figure,
the likeness of male or female,

\VS{17}the likeness of any beast of those that are on the earth, the likeness of
any winged bird which flies under heaven,

\VS{18}the likeness of any reptile which creeps on the earth, the likeness of any
fish of those which are in the waters under the earth;

\VS{19}and lest having looked up to the sky, and having seen the sun and the moon
and the stars, and all the
\FTNT{‡}{{\FR 4:19 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{order of heaven.
}}} heavenly bodies, you should go astray and worship them, and serve them, which the Lord your
God has distributed to all the nations under heaven.

\VS{20}But God took you, and led you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron
furnace, out of Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as at this day.

\VS{21}And the Lord God was angry with me for the things said by you, and swore that
I should not go over this Jordan, and that I should not enter into the land, which the Lord your God gives
you for an inheritance.

concerning which the Lord your God commanded you.

\VS{24}For

thing, and shall have done wickedly before the Lord your God to provoke him;

\VS{26}I call heaven and earth this day to witness against you, that you⌃ shall surely
perish from off the land, into which you⌃ go across Jordan to inherit it there; you⌃ shall not prolong
your days upon it, but shall be utterly cut off.

\VS{27}And the Lord shall scatter you amongst all nations, and you⌃ shall be left
few in number amongst all the nations, amongst which the Lord shall bring you.

\VS{28}And you⌃ shall there serve other gods, the works of the hands of men, wood
and stones, which

}}{\FT{all these words shall find you.
}}{\FL{Hebraism.}}} all these things shall come upon you in the last days, and you shall turn
to the Lord your God, and shall listen to his voice.

of your fathers, which the Lord swore to them.

\VS{32}Ask of the former days which were before you, from the day when God created
man upon the earth, and

hand, and with a high arm, and with great sights, according to all the things which the Lord our God did
in Egypt
\FTNT{§§}{{\FR 4:34 }{\FL{Gr.
}}{\FT{before you seeing.
}}} in your sight.

\VS{35}So that you should know that the Lord your God he is God, and there is none
beside him.

\VS{36}His voice was made audible from heaven to instruct you, and he showed you
upon the earth his great fire, and you heard his words out of the midst of the fire.

\VS{37}Because he loved your fathers, he also chose you their seed after them, and
he brought you himself with his great strength out of Egypt,

\VS{38}to destroy nations
\FTNT{***}{{\FR 4:38 }{\FL{Or,
}}{\FT{greater.
}}} great and stronger than you before your face, to bring you in, to give you their land to inherit,
as you have it this day.

\VS{39}And you shall know this day, and shall consider in your heart, that the Lord
your God he
{\ADD{is}} God in heaven above, and on the earth beneath, and there is none else but he.

\VS{40}And keep you⌃ his commandments, and his ordinances, all that I command you
this day; that it may be well with you, and with your sons after you, that you⌃ may be long-lived upon
the earth, which the Lord your God gives you for ever.

\VS{41}Then Moses separated three cities beyond Jordan on the east,

\VS{22}And to Dan he said, Dan
{\ADD{is}} a lion's whelp, and shall leap out of Basan.

\VS{23}And to Nephthali he said, Nephthali
{\ADD{has}} the fulness of good things; and let him be filled with blessing from the Lord: he shall
inherit the west and the south.

\VS{24}And to Aser he said, Aser
{\ADD{is}} blessed with children; and he shall be acceptable to his brethren: he shall dip his foot
in oil.

\VS{25}His sandal shall be iron and brass; as your days, so
{\ADD{shall be}} your strength.

\VS{26}There is not
{\ADD{any such}} as the God of the beloved; he who rides upon the heaven
{\ADD{is}} your helper, and the magnificent One of the firmament.

\VS{27}And the rule of God shall protect you, and
{\ADD{that}} under the strength of the everlasting arms; and he shall cast forth the enemy from before
your face, saying, Perish.

\VS{28}And Israel shall dwell in confidence alone on the land of Jacob, with corn
and wine; and the sky
{\ADD{shall be}} misty with dew upon you.

\VS{29}Blessed
{\ADD{are}} you, O Israel; who
{\ADD{is}} like to you, O people saved by the Lord? your helper shall hold his shield over you, and
{\ADD{his}} sword
{\ADD{is}} your boast; and your enemies shall speak falsely to you, and you shall tread upon their
neck.

the top of Phasga, which is before Jericho; and the Lord showed him all the mount of Galaad to Dan, and
all the land of Nephthali,

\VS{2}and all the land of Ephraim and Manasse, and all the land of Juda to the farthest
sea;

\VS{3}and the wilderness, and the country round about Jericho, the city of palm-trees,
to Segor.

\VS{4}And the Lord said to Moses, This
{\ADD{is}} the land of which I swore to Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, saying, To your seed will I give
it: and I have showed it to your eyes, but you shall not go in there.

\VS{5}So Moses the servant of the Lord died in the land of Moab by the word of the
Lord.

\VS{6}And they buried him in Gai near the house of Phogor; and no one has seen his
sepulchre to this day.

\VS{7}And Moses was one hundred and twenty years old at his death; his eyes were
not dimmed, nor were his natural powers destroyed.

\VS{8}And the children of Israel wept for Moses in Araboth of Moab at Jordan near
Jericho thirty days; and the days of the sad mourning for Moses were completed.

\VS{9}And Joshua the son of Naue was filled with the spirit of knowledge, for Moses
had laid his hands upon him; and the children of Israel listened to him; and they did as the Lord commanded
Moses.

\VS{10}And there rose up no more a prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew
face to face,

\VS{11}in all the signs and wonders, which the Lord sent him to work in Egypt on
Pharao, and his servants, and all his land;

\VS{12}the great wonders, and the mighty hand which Moses displayed before all Israel.
