Deuteronomy 1:1 These be the words1697 which Moses4872 spake1696 unto all Israel3478 on this side5676 Jordan3383 in the wilderness,4057 in the plain6160 over against4136 the Red5489sea,{Or, Zuph} between Paran,6290 and Tophel,8603 and Laban,3837 and Hazeroth,2698 and Dizahab.17742(Thereare eleven2596240 days'3117journey from Horeb2722 by the way1870 of mount2022 Seir8165 unto Kadeshbarnea.)69473 And it came to pass in the fortieth705 year,8141 in the eleventh62496240 month,2320 on the first259day of the month,2320that Moses4872 spake1696 unto the children1121 of Israel,3478 according unto all that the LORD3068 had given him in commandment6680 unto them;
4 After310 he had slain5221 Sihon5511 the king4428 of the Amorites,567 which dwelt3427 in Heshbon,2809 and Og5747 the king4428 of Bashan,1316 which dwelt3427 at Astaroth6252 in Edrei:1545 On this side5676 Jordan,3383 in the land776 of Moab,4124 began2974 Moses4872 to declare874 this law,8451 saying,5596 The LORD3068 our God430 spake1696 unto us in Horeb,2722 saying,559 Ye have dwelt3427 long enough7227 in this mount:20227 Turn6437 you, and take your journey,5265 and go935 to the mount2022 of the Amorites,567 and unto all theplaces{Heb. all his neighbours} nigh7934 thereunto, in the plain,6160 in the hills,2022 and in the vale,8219 and in the south,5045 and by the sea3220 side,2348 to the land776 of the Canaanites,3669 and unto Lebanon,3844 unto the great1419 river,5104 the river5104 Euphrates.65788 Behold,7200 I have set5414{Heb. given} the land776 before6440 you: go935 in and possess3423 the land776 which the LORD3068 sware7650 unto your fathers,1 Abraham,85 Isaac,3327 and Jacob,3290 to give5414 unto them and to their seed2233 after310 them.
Deuteronomy 1:9 And I spake559 unto you at that time,6256 saying,559 I am not able3201 to bear5375 you myself alone:90510 The LORD3068 your God430 hath multiplied7235 you, and, behold, ye are this day3117 as the stars3556 of heaven8064 for multitude.723011 (The LORD3068 God430 of your fathers1 make you a thousand505 times6471 so many more as3254 ye are, and bless1288 you, as he hath promised1696 you!)
12 How349 can I myself alone bear5375 your cumbrance,2960 and your burden,4853 and your strife?737913 Take3051{Heb. Give} you wise2450 men,582 and understanding,995 and known3045 among your tribes,7626 and I will make7760 them rulers7218 over you.
14 And ye answered6030 me, and said,559 The thing1697 which thou hast spoken1696is good2896forus to do.621315 So I took3947 the chief7218 of your tribes,7626 wise2450 men,582 and known,3045 and made5414{Heb. gave} them heads7218 over you, captains8269 over thousands,505 and captains8269 over hundreds,3967 and captains8269 over fifties,2572 and captains8269 over tens,6235 and officers7860 among your tribes.762616 And I charged6680 your judges8199 at that time,6256 saying,559 Hear8085thecauses between your brethren,251 and judge8199 righteously6664 between every man376 and his brother,251 and the stranger1616thatis with him.
17 Ye shall not respect5234 persons6440{Heb. acknowledge faces} in judgment;4941but ye shall hear8085 the small6996 as well as the great;1419 ye shall not be afraid1481 of the face6440 of man;376 for the judgment4941is God's:430 and the cause1697 that is too hard7185 for you, bring7126it unto me, and I will hear8085 it.
18 And I commanded6680 you at that time6256 all the things1697 which ye should do.6213
Deuteronomy 1:19 And when we departed5265 from Horeb,2722 we went through3212 all that great1419 and terrible3372 wilderness,4057 which ye saw7200 by the way1870 of the mountain2022 of the Amorites,567 as the LORD3068 our God430 commanded6680 us; and we came935 to Kadeshbarnea.694720 And I said559 unto you, Ye are come935 unto the mountain2022 of the Amorites,567 which the LORD3068 our God430 doth give5414 unto us.
21 Behold,7200 the LORD3068 thy God430 hath set5414 the land776 before6440 thee: go up5927and possess3423it, as the LORD3068 God430 of thy fathers1 hath said1696 unto thee; fear3372 not, neither be discouraged.2865
Deuteronomy 1:22 And ye came near7126 unto me every one of you, and said,559 We will send7971 men582 before6440 us, and they shall search us out2658 the land,776 and bring77252794 us word1697 again7725 by what way1870 we must go up,5927 and into what cities5892 we shall come.93523 And the saying1697 pleased me well:31905869 and I took3947 twelve81476240 men582 of you, one259 of a tribe:376762624 And they turned6437 and went up5927 into the mountain,2022 and came935 unto the valley5158 of Eshcol,812 and searched it out.727025 And they took3947 of the fruit6529 of the land776 in their hands,3027 and brought it down3381 unto us, and brought77252794 us word1697 again,7725 and said,559Itis a good2896 land776 which the LORD3068 our God430 doth give5414 us.
26 Notwithstanding ye would14 not go up,5927 but rebelled4784 against the commandment6310 of the LORD3068 your God:43027 And ye murmured7279 in your tents,168 and said,559 Because the LORD3068 hated8135 us, he hath brought us forth3318 out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 to deliver5414 us into the hand3027 of the Amorites,567 to destroy8045 us.
28 Whither shall we go up?5927 our brethren251 have discouraged4549{Heb. melted} our heart,3824 saying,559 The people5971is greater1419 and taller7311 than we; the cities5892are great1419 and walled up1219 to heaven;8064 and moreover we have seen7200 the sons1121 of the Anakims6062 there.
29 Then I said559 unto you, Dread6206 not, neither be afraid3372 of them.
30 The LORD3068 your God430 which goeth1980 before6440 you, he shall fight3898 for you, according to all that he did6213 for you in Egypt4714 before your eyes;586931 And in the wilderness,4057 where thou hast seen7200 how that the LORD3068 thy God430 bare5375 thee, as a man376 doth bear5375 his son,1121 in all the way1870 that ye went,1980 until ye came935 into this place.472532 Yet in this thing1697 ye did not believe539 the LORD3068 your God,43033 Who went1980 in the way1870 before6440 you, to search you out8446 a place4725 to pitch your tents2583in, in fire784 by night,3915 to shew7200 you by what way1870 ye should go,3212 and in a cloud6051 by day.3119
Deuteronomy 1:34 And the LORD3068 heard8085 the voice6963 of your words,1697 and was wroth,7107 and sware,7650 saying,55935 Surely there shall not one376 of these men582 of this evil7451 generation1755 see7200 that good2896 land,776 which I sware7650 to give5414 unto your fathers,136 Save2108 Caleb3612 the son1121 of Jephunneh;3312 he shall see7200 it, and to him will I give5414 the land776 that834 he hath trodden upon,1869 and to his children,1121 because he hath wholly4390 followed310{Heb. fulfilled to go after} the LORD.306837 Also the LORD3068 was angry599 with me for your sakes,1558 saying,559 Thou also shalt not go935 in thither.803338But Joshua3091 the son1121 of Nun,5126 which standeth5975 before6440 thee, he shall go in935 thither: encourage2388 him: for he shall cause Israel3478 to inherit5157 it.
39 Moreover your little ones,2945 which ye said559 should be a prey,957 and your children,1121 which in that day3117 had no knowledge3045 between good2896 and evil,7451 they shall go in935 thither, and unto them will I give5414 it, and they shall possess3423 it.
40 But asfor you, turn6437 you, and take your journey5265 into the wilderness4057 by the way1870 of the Red5488 sea.3220
Deuteronomy 1:41 Then ye answered6030 and said559 unto me, We have sinned2398 against the LORD,3068 we will go up5927 and fight,3898 according to all that the LORD3068 our God430 commanded6680 us. And when ye had girded2296 on every man376 his weapons3627 of war,4421 ye were ready1951 to go up5927 into the hill.202242 And the LORD3068 said559 unto me, Say559 unto them, Go not up,5927 neither fight;3898 for I am not among7130 you; lest ye be smitten5062 before6440 your enemies.34143 So I spake1696 unto you; and ye would not hear,8085 but rebelled4784 against the commandment6310 of the LORD,3068 and went59272794 presumptuously2102{Heb. you were presumptuous, and went up} up5927 into the hill.202244 And the Amorites,567 which dwelt3427 in that mountain,2022 came out3318 against7125 you, and chased7291 you, as bees1682 do,6213 and destroyed3807 you in Seir,8165even unto Hormah.276745 And ye returned7725 and wept1058 before6440 the LORD;3068 but the LORD3068 would not hearken8085 to your voice,6963 nor give ear238 unto you.
46 So ye abode3427 in Kadesh6946 many7227 days,3117 according unto the days3117 that ye abode3427there.
