1 These are the words of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Choreb.
2 And Moses called all the sons of Israel and said to them, Ye have seen all things that the Lord did in the land of Egypt before you to Pharao and his servants, and all his land;
3 the great temptations which thine eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders.
4 Yet the Lord God has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
5 And he led you forty years in the wilderness; your garments did not grow old, and your sandals were not worn away off your feet.
6 Ye did not eat bread, ye did not drink wine or strong drink, that ye might know that I am the Lord your God.
7 And ye came as far as this place; and there came forth Seon king of Esebon, and Og king of Basan, to meet us in war.
8 And we smote them and took their land, and I gave it for an inheritance to Ruben and Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasse.
9 And ye shall take heed to do all the words of this covenant, that ye may understand all things that ye shall do.
10 Ye all stand to-day before the Lord your God, the heads of your tribes, and your elders, and your judges, and your officers, every man of Israel,
11 your wives, and your children, and the stranger who is in the midst of your camp, from your hewer of wood even to your drawer of water,
12 that thou shouldest enter into the covenant of the Lord thy God and into his oaths, as many as the Lord thy God appoints thee this day;
13 that he may appoint thee to himself for a people, and he shall be thy God, as he said to thee, and as he sware to thy fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob.
14 And I do not appoint to you alone this covenant and this oath;
15 but to those also who are here with you to-day before the Lord your God, and to those who are not here with you to-day.
