1Hear8085, O Israel3478: Thou art to pass over5674 Jordan3383 this day3117, to go in935 to possess3423 nations1471 greater1419 and mightier6099 than thyself, cities5892 great1419 and fenced up1219 to heaven8064,
2A people5971 great1419 and tall7311, the children1121 of the Anakims6062, whom thou knowest3045, and of whom thou hast heard8085 say, Who can stand3320 before6440 the children1121 of Anak6061!
3Understand3045 therefore this day3117, that the LORD3068 thy God430 is he which goeth over5674 before6440 thee; as a consuming398 fire784 he shall destroy8045 them, and he shall bring them down3665 before thy face6440: so shalt thou drive them out3423, and destroy6 them quickly4118, as the LORD3068 hath said1696 unto thee.
4Speak559 not thou in thine heart3824, after that the LORD3068 thy God430 hath cast them out1920 from before6440 thee, saying559, For my righteousness6666 the LORD3068 hath brought me in935 to possess3423 this land776: but for the wickedness7564 of these nations1471 the LORD3068 doth drive them out3423 from before6440 thee.
5Not for thy righteousness6666, or for the uprightness3476 of thine heart3824, dost thou go935 to possess3423 their land776: but for the wickedness7564 of these nations1471 the LORD3068 thy God430 doth drive them out3423 from before6440 thee, and that he may perform6965 the word1697 which the LORD3068 sware7650 unto thy fathers1, Abraham85, Isaac3327, and Jacob3290.
6Understand3045 therefore, that the LORD3068 thy God430 giveth5414 thee not this good2896 land776 to possess3423 it for thy righteousness6666; for thou art a stiffnecked6203 7186 people5971.
7Remember2142, and forget7911 not, how thou provokedst the LORD3068 thy God430 to wrath7107 in the wilderness4057: from4480 the day3117 that thou didst depart out3318 of the land776 of Egypt4714, until ye came935 unto this place4725, ye have been rebellious4784 against5973 the LORD3068.
8Also in Horeb2722 ye provoked7107 the LORD3068 to wrath7107, so that the LORD3068 was angry599 with you to have destroyed8045 you.
9When I was gone up5927 into the mount2022 to receive3947 the tables3871 of stone68, even the tables3871 of the covenant1285 which the LORD3068 made3772 with you, then I abode3427 in the mount2022 forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights3915, I neither did eat398 bread3899 nor drink8354 water4325:
10And the LORD3068 delivered5414 unto me two8147 tables3871 of stone68 written3789 with the finger676 of God430; and on them was written according to all the words1697, which the LORD3068 spake1696 with you in the mount2022 out of the midst8432 of the fire784 in the day3117 of the assembly6951.
11And it came to pass at the end7093 of forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights3915, that the LORD3068 gave5414 me the two8147 tables3871 of stone68, even the tables3871 of the covenant1285.
12And the LORD3068 said559 unto me, Arise6965, get thee down3381 quickly4118 from hence; for thy people5971 which thou hast brought forth3318 out of Egypt4714 have corrupted7843 themselves; they are quickly4118 turned aside5493 out of the way1870 which I commanded6680 them; they have made6213 them a molten image4541.
13Furthermore the LORD3068 spake559 unto me, saying559, I have seen7200 this people5971, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked6203 7186 people5971:
14Let me alone7503, that I may destroy8045 them, and blot out4229 their name8034 from under heaven8064: and I will make6213 of854 thee a nation1471 mightier6099 and greater7227 than they.
15So I turned6437 and came down3381 from the mount2022, and the mount2022 burned1197 with fire784: and the two8147 tables3871 of the covenant1285 were in my two8147 hands3027.
16And I looked7200, and, behold, ye had sinned2398 against the LORD3068 your God430, and had made6213 you a molten4541 calf5695: ye had turned aside5493 quickly4118 out of the way1870 which the LORD3068 had commanded6680 you.
17And I took8610 the two8147 tables3871, and cast7993 them out of5921 my two8147 hands3027, and brake7665 them before your eyes5869.
18And I fell down5307 before6440 the LORD3068, as at the first7223, forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights3915: I did neither eat398 bread3899, nor drink8354 water4325, because of all your sins2403 which ye sinned2398, in doing6213 wickedly7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068, to provoke him to anger3707.
19For I was afraid3025 of6440 the anger639 and hot displeasure2534, wherewith the LORD3068 was wroth7107 against you to destroy8045 you. But the LORD3068 hearkened8085 unto me at that time6471 also.
20And the LORD3068 was very3966 angry599 with Aaron175 to have destroyed8045 him: and I prayed6419 for Aaron175 also the same time6256.
21And I took3947 your sin2403, the calf5695 which ye had made6213, and burnt8313 it with fire784, and stamped3807 it, and ground2912 it very small3190, even until it was as small1854 as dust6083: and I cast7993 the dust6083 thereof into the brook5158 that descended out3381 of the mount2022.
22And at Taberah8404, and at Massah4532, and at Kibrothhattaavah6914, ye provoked the LORD3068 to wrath7107.
23Likewise when the LORD3068 sent7971 you from Kadeshbarnea6947, saying559, Go up5927 and possess3423 the land776 which I have given5414 you; then ye rebelled4784 against the commandment6310 of the LORD3068 your God430, and ye believed539 him not, nor hearkened8085 to his voice6963.
24Ye have been rebellious4784 against the LORD3068 from the day3117 that I knew3045 you.
25Thus I fell down5307 before6440 the LORD3068 forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights3915, as I fell down5307 at the first; because the LORD3068 had said559 he would destroy8045 you.
26I prayed6419 therefore unto the LORD3068, and said559, O Lord136 GOD3069, destroy7843 not thy people5971 and thine inheritance5159, which thou hast redeemed6299 through thy greatness1433, which thou hast brought forth3318 out of Egypt4714 with a mighty2389 hand3027.
27Remember2142 thy servants5650, Abraham85, Isaac3327, and Jacob3290; look6437 not unto the stubbornness7190 of this people5971, nor to their wickedness7562, nor to their sin2403:
28Lest the land776 whence thou broughtest us out3318 say559, Because the LORD3068 was not able3201 to bring935 them into the land776 which he promised1696 them, and because he hated8135 them, he hath brought them out3318 to slay4191 them in the wilderness4057.
29Yet they are thy people5971 and thine inheritance5159, which thou broughtest out3318 by thy mighty1419 power3581 and by thy stretched out5186 arm2220.
