Deuteronomy 29:1-15

Rotherham(i) 1 These, are the words of the covenant, which Yahweh commanded Moses to solemnise with the sons of Israel, in the land of Moab,––besides the covenant, which he solemnised with them in Horeb. 2 And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them,––Ye yourselves, saw all that Yahweh did before your eyes in the land of Egypt, unto Pharaoh and unto all his servants, and unto all his land: 3 the great provings which thine own eyes saw,––those great signs and wonders: 4 yet hath Yahweh, not given, onto you a heart to know, or eyes to see, or ears to hear,––until this day. 5 I led you, therefore, forty years in the desert,––your mantles, fell not with age, from off you, even, thy sandal, fell not with age from off thy foot: 6 Bread, ye did not eat, and, wine and strong drink, ye did not drink,––that ye might know that, I, Yahweh, was your God. 7 And, when ye entered into this place, then came forth Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan, to meet us in battle, and we smote them; 8 and we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance unto the Reubenites, and unto the Gadites,––and unto the half tribe of Manasseh. 9 Ye must, therefore, keep the words of this covenant, and do them,––that ye may prosper in all that ye do.
10 Ye are stationed, today, all of you, before Yahweh your God,––your heads, your tribes, and your elders, and your officers, every man of Israel; 11 your little ones, your wives, and thy sojourner that is in the midst of thy camps,––from him that heweth thy wood, unto him that draweth thy water: 12 that thou mayest pass through into the covenant of Yahweh thy God, and into his oath,––which Yahweh thy God is solemnising with thee, today: 13 that he may confirm thee today as his own people, while, he, becometh thine own God, as he spake unto thee,––and as he sware unto thy fathers, unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob. 14 And, not with you alone, am I solemnising this covenant and this oath; 15 but with him who is here, with us, standing today before Yahweh our God,––and with him who is not here, with us today.
