DE-1:1 These [be] the words which Moses spake unto all Israel
on this side
Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red
[sea], between
Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
DE-1:2 ([There are] eleven days' [journey] from Horeb by the
way of mount
Seir unto Kadeshbarnea.)
DE-1:3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the
eleventh month, on
the first [day] of the month, [that] Moses spake unto the
children of Israel,
according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment
unto them;
DE-1:4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which
dwelt in
Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in
Edrei:
DE-1:5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to
declare this
law, saying,
DE-1:6 The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have
dwelt long
enough in this mount:
DE-1:7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of
the Amorites,
and unto all [the places] nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the
hills, and in
the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of
the
Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river
Euphrates.
DE-1:8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and
possess the land
which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob, to give
unto them and to their seed after them.
DE-1:9 And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able
to bear you
myself alone:
DE-1:10 The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye
[are] this day
as the stars of heaven for multitude.
DE-1:11 (The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times
so many more
as ye [are], and bless you, as he hath promised you!)
DE-1:12 How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your
burden, and your
strife?
DE-1:13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among
your tribes,
and I will make them rulers over you.
DE-1:14 And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast
spoken [is]
good [for us] to do.
DE-1:15 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.
DE-1:16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear
[the causes]
between your brethren, and judge righteously between [every] man
and his
brother, and the stranger [that is] with him.
DE-1:17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; [but] ye
shall hear the
small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face
of man; for the
judgment [is] God's: and the cause that is too hard for you,
bring [it] unto
me, and I will hear it.
DE-1:18 And I commanded you at that time all the things which
ye should do.
DE-1:19 And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all
that great and
terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of
the Amorites,
as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadeshbarnea.
DE-1:20 And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of
the Amorites,
which the LORD our God doth give unto us.
DE-1:21 Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee:
go up [and]
possess [it], as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee;
fear not,
neither be discouraged.
DE-1:22 And ye came near unto 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.
DE-1:23 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men
of you, one of
a tribe:
DE-1:24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came
unto the
valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.
DE-1:25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands,
and brought
[it] down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, [It is]
a good land
which the LORD our God doth give us.
DE-1:26 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled
against the
commandment of the LORD your God:
DE-1:27 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the
LORD hated us,
he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us
into the hand
of the Amorites, to destroy us.
DE-1:28 Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged
our heart,
saying, The people [is] greater and taller than we; the cities
[are] great and
walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the
Anakims there.
DE-1:29 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of
them.
DE-1:30 The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall
fight for you,
according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;
DE-1:31 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that
