Deuteronomy 10

1 At that time the LORD said unto me: 'Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto Me into the mount; and make thee an ark of wood.

At that time the Lord said to me, Hew for yourself two stone tables as the first, and come up to me into the mountain, and you shall make for yourself an ark of wood.

2 And I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt put them in the ark.'

And you shall write upon the tables the words which were on the first tables which you did break, and you shall put them into the ark.

3 So I made an ark of acacia-wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand.

So I made an ark of boards of incorruptible wood, and I hewed tables of stone like the first, and I went up to the mountain, and the two tables were in my hand.

4 And He wrote on the tables according to the first writing, the ten words, which the LORD spoke unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them unto me.

And he wrote upon the tables according to the first writing the ten commandments, which the Lord spoke to you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire, and the Lord gave them to me.

5 And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are, as the LORD commanded me. —

And I turned and came down from the mountain, and I put the tables into the ark which I had made; and there they were, as the Lord commanded me.

6 And the children of Israel journeyed from Beeroth-benejaakan to Moserah; there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.

And the children of Israel departed from Beeroth of the sons of Jakim [to] Misadai: there Aaron died, and there he was buried, and Eleazar his son was priest in his stead.

7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgod; and from Gudgod to Jotbah, a land of brooks of water. —

Thence they departed to Gadgad; and from Gadgad to Etebatha, a land [wherein are] torrents of water.

8 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day.

At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand near before the Lord, to minister and bless in his name to this day.

9 Wherefore Levi hath no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God spoke unto him. —

Therefore the Levites have no part nor inheritance amongst their brethren; the Lord himself [is] their inheritance, as he said to them.

10 Now I stayed in the mount, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me that time also; the LORD would not destroy thee.

And I remained in the mount forty days and forty nights: and the Lord heard me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy you.

11 And the LORD said unto me: 'Arise, go before the people, causing them to set forward, that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.'

And the Lord said to me, Go, set out before this people, and let them go in and inherit the land, which I sware to their fathers to give to them.

12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul;

And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul;

13 to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day?

to keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his ordinances, all that I charge you today, that it may be well with you?

14 Behold, unto the LORD thy God belongeth the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that therein is.

Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens belong to the Lord your God, the earth and all things that are in it.

15 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day.

Only the Lord chose your fathers to love them, and he chose out their seed after them, [even] you, beyond all nations, as at this day.

16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.

Therefore you shall circumcise the hardness of your heart, and you shall not harden your neck.

17 For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward.

For the Lord your God, he [is] God of gods, and the Lord of lords, the great, and strong, and terrible God, who does not accept persons, nor will he by any means accept a bribe:

18 He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

executing judgement for the stranger and orphan and widow, and he loves the stranger to give him food and raiment.

19 Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

And you shall love the stranger; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

20 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear.

You shall fear the Lord your God, and serve him, and shall cleave to him, and shall swear by his name.

21 He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen.

He [is] your boast, and he [is] your God, who has wrought in the midst of you these great and glorious things, which your eyes have seen.

22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.

With seventy souls your fathers went down into Egypt; but the Lord your God has made you as the stars of heaven in multitude.
