Berean Standard Bible BSB Bible
When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
when all Israel comes before the LORD your God at the place He will choose, you are to read this law in the hearing of all Israel.
Gather the people together, men, and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the LORD your God, and observe to do all the words of this law:
Assemble the people—men, women, children, and
the foreigners within your gates—so that
they may
listen and learn to fear
the LORD your God and to follow carefully all
the words of this law.
And that
their children, which have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear
the LORD your God, as long as ye live in
the land
whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
Then their children who do not know
the law will
listen and learn to fear
the LORD your God, as long as you live in
the land that you are crossing
the Jordan to possess.”
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present
yourselves in
the tabernacle of
the congregation, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented
themselves in
the tabernacle of
the congregation.
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Behold,
the time of your death is near. Call Joshua and present
yourselves at
the Tent of Meeting, so that I may commission him.” So Moses and Joshua went and presented
themselves at
the Tent of Meeting.
And
the LORD appeared in
the tabernacle in a
pillar of a cloud: and
the pillar of
the cloud stood over
the door of
the tabernacle.
Then the LORD appeared at
the tent in a
pillar of cloud, and
the cloud stood over
the entrance to
the tent.
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a
whoring after
the gods of
the strangers of
the land,
whither they go to be among
them, and will
forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with
them.
And
the LORD said to Moses, “You will soon rest with your fathers, and
these people will rise up and
prostitute themselves with
the foreign gods of
the land
they are entering.
They will
forsake Me and break
the covenant I have made with
them.
Then my anger shall be
kindled against
them in that day, and I will
forsake them, and I will hide my face from
them, and
they shall be
devoured, and many evils and troubles shall
befall them; so that
they will say in that day, Are not
these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us?
On that day My anger will burn against
them, and I will
abandon them and hide My face from
them, so that
they will be consumed, and many troubles and afflictions will
befall them. On that day
they will say, ‘Have not
these disasters come upon us because our God is no longer with us?’
And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.
And on that day I will surely hide My face because of all the evil they have done by turning to other gods.
Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
Now
therefore, write down for
yourselves this song and teach it to
the Israelites; have
them recite it, so that it may be a witness for Me against
them.
For when I shall have brought
them into
the land which I
sware unto
their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and
they shall have eaten and filled
themselves, and
waxen fat;
then will
they turn unto other gods, and serve
them, and
provoke me, and break my covenant.
When I have brought
them into
the land that I
swore to give
their fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey,
they will eat
their fill and
prosper.
Then they will turn to other gods and worship
them, and
they will
reject Me and break My covenant.
And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are
befallen them, that this song shall
testify against
them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of
the mouths of
their seed: for I know
their imagination which
they go about, even now, before I have brought
them into
the land which I
sware.
And when many troubles and afflictions have come upon
them, this song will
testify against
them, because it will not be forgotten from
the lips of
their descendants. For I know
their inclination, even before I bring
them into
the land that I
swore to give
them.”
Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel.
So that very day Moses wrote down this song and taught it to the Israelites.
And he gave Joshua
the son of
Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring
the children of Israel into
the land which I
sware unto
them: and I will be with
thee.
Then the LORD commissioned Joshua son of
Nun and said, “Be strong and
courageous, for you will bring
the Israelites into
the land that I
swore to give
them, and I will be with you.”
And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
When Moses had finished writing in a book the words of this law from beginning to end,
That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying,
he gave this command to the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD:
Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.
“Take this Book of the Law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, so that it may remain there as a witness against you.
For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been
rebellious against
the LORD; and how much more after my death?
For I know how
rebellious and stiff-necked you are. If you are already rebelling against
the LORD while I am still alive, how much more will you
rebel after my death!
Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record against them.
Assemble before me all
the elders of your tribes and all your officers so that I may speak
these words in
their hearing and call heaven and earth to witness against
them.
For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt
yourselves, and turn aside from
the way which I have commanded you; and evil will
befall you in
the latter days; because ye will do evil in
the sight of
the LORD, to
provoke him to anger through
the work of your hands.
For I know that after my death you will become utterly corrupt and turn from
the path I have commanded you. And in
the days to come,
disaster will
befall you because you will do evil in
the sight of
the LORD to
provoke Him to anger by
the work of your hands.”
And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.
Then Moses recited
aloud to
the whole assembly of Israel
the words of this song from beginning to end:
Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak; hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
My doctrine shall drop as
the rain, my speech shall
distil as
the dew, as
the small rain upon
the tender
herb, and as
the showers upon
the grass:
Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like
dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.
Because I will
publish the name of
the LORD:
ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.
They have corrupted
themselves,
their spot is not
the spot of his children:
they are a
perverse and
crooked generation.
His people have acted corruptly toward Him;
the spot on
them is not that of His children, but of a
perverse and
crooked generation.
Do ye thus requite
the LORD, O
foolish people and unwise? is not he thy father that hath bought
thee? hath he not made
thee, and established
thee?
Is this how you repay
the LORD, O
foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and
Creator? Has He not made you and established you?
Remember
the days of old, consider
the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will
shew thee; thy elders, and
they will tell
thee.
Remember the days of old; consider the years long past. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will inform you.
When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He divided the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
For the LORD’S portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
But
the LORD’s portion is His people, Jacob His
allotted inheritance.
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.
He found him in a desert land, in a barren,
howling wilderness; He surrounded him, He
instructed him, He guarded him as
the apple of His eye.
As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
As an eagle stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings to catch them and carried them on His pinions.
So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
The LORD alone led him, and no foreign god was with him.
He made him
ride on
the high places of
the earth, that he might eat
the increase of
the fields; and he made him to
suck honey out of
the rock, and oil out of
the flinty rock;
He made him
ride on
the heights of
the land and fed him
the produce of
the field. He
nourished him with honey from
the rock and oil from
the flinty crag,
Butter of
kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of
the breed of
Bashan, and goats, with
the fat of
kidneys of wheat; and thou
didst drink
the pure blood of
the grape.
with curds from
the herd and milk from
the flock, with
the fat of lambs, with rams from
Bashan, and goats, with
the choicest grains of wheat. From
the juice of
the finest grapes you
drank the wine.
But
Jeshurun waxed fat, and
kicked: thou art
waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness;
then he
forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed
the Rock of his salvation.
They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations
provoked they him to anger.
They provoked His jealousy with foreign gods;
they enraged Him with abominations.
They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
They sacrificed to demons, not to God, to gods they had not known, to newly arrived gods, which your fathers did not fear.
Of
the Rock that
begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed
thee.
You
ignored the Rock who brought you forth; you
forgot the God who gave you birth.
And when
the LORD saw it, he
abhorred them, because of
the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
When
the LORD saw this, He rejected
them,
provoked to anger by His sons and daughters.
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.
He said: “I will hide My face from
them; I will see what will be
their end. For
they are a
perverse generation— children of unfaithfulness.
They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God;
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.
They have
provoked My jealousy by that which is not God;
they have
enraged Me with
their worthless idols. So I will make
them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make
them angry by a nation without understanding.
For a fire is
kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto
the lowest
hell, and shall
consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire
the foundations of
the mountains.
For a fire has been
kindled by My anger, and it burns to
the depths of
Sheol; it consumes
the earth and its produce, and scorches
the foundations of
the mountains.
I will
heap mischiefs upon
them; I will
spend mine arrows upon
them.
I will
heap disasters upon
them; I will
spend My arrows against
them.
They shall be burnt with hunger, and
devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send
the teeth of beasts upon
them, with
the poison of serpents of
the dust.
They will be wasted from hunger and
ravaged by
pestilence and bitter plague; I will send
the fangs of wild beasts against
them, with
the venom of vipers that
slither in
the dust.
The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both
the young man and
the virgin,
the suckling also with
the man of gray hairs.
Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
I said, I would
scatter them into corners, I would make
the remembrance of
them to cease from among men:
I would have said that I would cut
them to pieces and
blot out
their memory from mankind,
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
the LORD hath not done all this.
if I had not
dreaded the taunt of
the enemy, lest
their adversaries misunderstand and say: ‘Our own hand has prevailed; it was not
the LORD who did all this.’”
For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
Israel is a nation devoid of counsel, with no understanding among them.
O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
If only
they were wise,
they would understand it;
they would
comprehend their fate.
How should one
chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except
their Rock had sold
them, and
the LORD had shut
them up?
How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?
For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
For
their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies
concede.
For
their vine is of
the vine of
Sodom, and of
the fields of
Gomorrah:
their grapes are grapes of gall,
their clusters are bitter:
But
their vine is from
the vine of
Sodom and from
the fields of
Gomorrah.
Their grapes are poisonous;
their clusters are bitter.
Their wine is
the poison of
dragons, and
the cruel
venom of asps.
Their wine is
the venom of serpents,
the deadly poison of cobras.
Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures?
“Have I not stored up these things, sealed up within My vaults?
To me belongeth
vengeance, and recompence;
their foot shall slide in due time: for
the day of
their calamity is at hand, and
the things that shall come upon
them make
haste.
Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due time
their foot will slip; for
their day of
disaster is near, and
their doom is coming quickly.”
For
the LORD shall judge his people, and
repent himself for his servants, when he
seeth that
their power is gone, and
there is none shut up, or left.
For
the LORD will
vindicate His people and have
compassion on His servants when He sees that
their strength is gone and no one remains, slave or free.
And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
He will say: “Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
Which did eat
the fat of
their sacrifices, and
drank the wine of
their drink offerings? let
them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
which
ate the fat of
their sacrifices and
drank the wine of
their drink offerings? Let
them rise up and help you; let
them give you shelter!
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.
See now that I am He;
there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I
heal, and
there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
If I
whet my
glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render
vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward
them that
hate me.
I will make mine 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 revenges upon
the enemy.
I will make My arrows
drunk with blood, while My sword devours flesh—
the blood of
the slain and
captives,
the heads of
the enemy leaders.”
Rejoice, O heavens, with Him, and let all God’s angels worship Him.
Rejoice, O nations, with His people; for He will
avenge the blood of His children. He will take
vengeance on His
adversaries and repay those who
hate Him; He will
cleanse His land and His people.
And Moses came and spake all
the words of this song in
the ears of
the people, he, and Hoshea
the son of
Nun.
Then Moses came with Joshua son of
Nun and recited all
the words of this song in
the hearing of
the people.
And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
When Moses had finished
reciting all
these words to all Israel,
And he said unto
them, Set your hearts unto all
the words which I
testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all
the words of this law.
he said to
them, “Take to heart all
these words I
testify among you
today, so that you may command your children to carefully follow all
the words of this law.
For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall
prolong your days in
the land,
whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
For they are not idle words to you, because they are your life, and by them you will live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
And
the LORD spake unto Moses that
selfsame day, saying,
On that same day the LORD said to Moses,
Get
thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount
Nebo, which is in
the land of Moab, that is over against
Jericho; and behold
the land of
Canaan, which I give unto
the children of Israel for a possession:
“Go up into
the Abarim Range to Mount
Nebo, in
the land of Moab across from
Jericho, and view
the land of
Canaan, which I am giving to
the Israelites as
their own possession.
And die in
the mount
whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount
Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
And
there on
the mountain that you
climb, you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount
Hor and was gathered to his people.
Because ye
trespassed against me among
the children of Israel at
the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in
the wilderness of Zin; because ye
sanctified me not in
the midst of
the children of Israel.
For at the waters of Meribah-kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin, both of you broke faith with Me among the Israelites by failing to treat Me as holy in their presence.
Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
Although you shall see from a distance the land that I am giving the Israelites, you shall not enter it.”
And this is
the blessing,
wherewith Moses
the man of God blessed
the children of Israel before his death.
This is the blessing that Moses the man of God pronounced upon the Israelites before his death.
And he said,
The LORD came from
Sinai, and rose up from
Seir unto
them; he
shined forth from mount
Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a
fiery law for
them.
He said: “
The LORD came from
Sinai and
dawned upon us from
Seir; He
shone forth from Mount
Paran and came with myriads of holy ones, with flaming fire at His right hand.
Yea, he loved
the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and
they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words.
Surely You love the people; all the holy ones are in Your hand, and they sit down at Your feet; each receives Your words—
Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.
the law that Moses gave us, the possession of the assembly of Jacob.
And he was king in
Jeshurun, when
the heads of
the people and
the tribes of Israel were gathered together.
So
the LORD became King in
Jeshurun when
the leaders of
the people gathered, when
the tribes of Israel came together.
And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.
And concerning Judah he said: “O LORD, hear the cry of Judah and bring him to his people. With his own hands he defends his cause, but may You be a help against his foes.”
And of Levi he said, Let thy
Thummim and thy
Urim be with thy holy one, whom thou
didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou
didst strive at
the waters of Meribah;
Concerning Levi he said: “Give Your
Thummim to Levi and Your
Urim to Your godly one, whom You tested at Massah and contested at
the waters of Meribah.
Who said unto 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 thy word, and kept thy covenant.
He said of his father and mother, ‘I do not consider them.’ He disregarded his brothers and did not know his own sons, for he kept Your word and maintained Your covenant.
They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
He will teach Your ordinances to Jacob and Your law to Israel; he will set incense before You and whole burnt offerings on Your altar.
Bless, LORD, 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.
Bless his substance, O LORD, and accept
the work of his hands.
Smash the loins of those who rise against him, and of his foes so
they can rise no more.”
And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by him; and the LORD shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.
Concerning Benjamin he said: “May the beloved of the LORD rest secure in Him; God shields him all day long, and upon His shoulders he rests.”
And of Joseph he said, Blessed of
the LORD be his land, for
the precious things of heaven, for
the dew, and for
the deep that coucheth beneath,
Concerning Joseph he said: “May his land be blessed by
the LORD with
the precious
dew from heaven above and
the deep waters that lie beneath,
And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
with
the bountiful harvest from
the sun and
the abundant yield of
the seasons,
And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,
And for
the precious things of
the earth and
fulness thereof, and for
the good will of him that dwelt in
the bush: let
the blessing come upon
the head of Joseph, and upon
the top of
the head of him that was separated from his brethren.
with
the choice gifts of
the land and everything in it, and with
the favor of Him who dwelt in
the burning
bush. May
these rest on
the head of Joseph and crown
the brow of
the prince of his brothers.
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.
His majesty is like a
firstborn bull, and his horns are like those of a wild ox. With
them he will
gore the nations, even to
the ends of
the earth. Such are
the myriads of Ephraim, and such are
the thousands of
Manasseh.”
They shall call
the people unto
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.
They will call the peoples to a mountain; there they will offer sacrifices of righteousness. For they will feast on the abundance of the seas and the hidden treasures of the sand.”
And of
Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth
Gad: he dwelleth as a lion, and teareth
the arm with
the crown of
the head.
Concerning
Gad he said: “Blessed is he who enlarges
the domain of
Gad! He lies down like a lion and tears off an arm or a head.
And he provided
the first part for himself, because
there, in a portion of
the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with
the heads of
the people, he executed
the justice of
the LORD, and his judgments with Israel.
He chose the best land for himself, because a ruler’s portion was reserved for him there. He came with the leaders of the people; he administered the LORD’s justice and His ordinances for Israel.”
And of
Naphtali he said, O
Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with
the blessing of
the LORD: possess thou
the west and
the south.
Concerning
Naphtali he said: “
Naphtali is abounding with favor, full of
the blessing of
the LORD; he shall take possession of
the sea and
the south.”
And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children; let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil.
And concerning Asher he said: “May Asher be the most blessed of sons; may he be the most favored among his brothers and dip his foot in oil.
Thy
shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
May
the bolts of your gate be iron and bronze, and may your strength
match your days.”
There is none like unto
the God of
Jeshurun, who rideth upon
the heaven in thy help, and in his
excellency on
the sky.
“
There is none like
the God of
Jeshurun, who rides
the heavens to your aid, and
the clouds in His majesty.
The eternal God is thy refuge, and
underneath are
the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out
the enemy from before
thee; and shall say, Destroy
them.
The eternal God is your dwelling place, and
underneath are
the everlasting arms. He drives out
the enemy before you, giving
the command, ‘Destroy him!’
Israel
then shall dwell in safety alone:
the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down
dew.
So Israel dwells securely;
the fountain of Jacob lives untroubled in a land of grain and new wine, where even
the heavens
drip with
dew.
Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto
thee, O people saved by
the LORD,
the shield of thy help, and who is
the sword of thy
excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto
thee; and thou shalt
tread upon
their high places.
Blessed are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by
the LORD? He is
the shield that protects you,
the sword in which you
boast. Your enemies will cower before you, and you shall
trample their high places.”
And Moses went up from
the plains of Moab unto
the mountain of
Nebo, to
the top of
Pisgah, that is over against
Jericho. And
the LORD shewed him all
the land of
Gilead, unto
Dan,
Then Moses went up from
the plains of Moab to Mount
Nebo, to
the top of
Pisgah, which faces
Jericho. And
the LORD showed him
the whole land—from
Gilead as far as
Dan,
And all
Naphtali, and
the land of Ephraim, and
Manasseh, and all
the land of Judah, unto
the utmost sea,
all of
Naphtali,
the land of Ephraim and
Manasseh, all
the land of Judah as far as
the Western Sea,
And
the south, and
the plain of
the valley of
Jericho,
the city of palm trees, unto Zoar.
the Negev, and
the region from
the Valley of
Jericho (
the City of Palms) all
the way to Zoar.
