NOW therefore hearken, O Yashar'el, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which Yahuah Elohai of your fathers gives you.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may guard the commandments of Yahuah Elohaykem which I command you.
Your eyes have seen את what Yahuah did because of Ba`al Pe`or: for all the men that followed Ba`al Pe`or, Yahuah Elohayka has destroyed them from among you.
But ye that did cleave unto Yahuah Elohaykem are alive everyone of you this day.
Behold, I have taught you commandments and judgments, even as Yahuah Elohai commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.
Guard therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear את all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
For what nation is there so great, who has Elohiym so nigh unto them, as Yahuah Elohaynu is in all things that we call upon him for?
And what nation is there so great, that has commandments and judgments so righteous as all this Torah, which I set before you this day?
Only take heed to yourself, and guard your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life: but teach them your sons, and your sons' sons;
Specially the day that you stood before Yahuah Elohayka in Chorev, when Yahuah said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.
And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
And Yahuah spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.
And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even Ten Devariym; and he wrote them upon two caphire stones.
And Yahuah commanded me at that time to teach you commandments and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that Yahuah spoke unto you in Chorev out of the midst of the fire:
Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flies in the air,
The likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:
And lest you lift up your eyes unto the heavens, and when you see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, should be driven to worship them, and serve them, which Yahuah Elohayka has divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
But Yahuah has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Mitsrayim, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.
Furthermore Yahuah was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that I should not go over the Yardan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which Yahuah Elohayka gives you for an inheritance:
But I must die in this land, I must not go over the Yardan: but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.
Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of Yahuah Elohaykem, which he cut with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of anything, which Yahuah Elohayka has forbidden you.
For Yahuah Elohayka is a consuming fire, even a jealous El.
When you shall beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of anything, and shall do evil in the sight of Yahuah Elohayka, to provoke him to anger:
I call the heavens and the earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over the Yardan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
And Yahuah shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither Yahuah shall lead you.
And there ye shall serve elohiym, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
But if from thence you shall seek Yahuah Elohayka, you shall find him, if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.
When you are in tribulation, and all these things are come upon you, even in the latter days, if you turn to Yahuah Elohayka, and shall be obedient unto his voice;
(For Yahuah Elohayka is a merciful El;) he will not forsake you, neither destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which he swore unto them.
For ask now of the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that Elohiym created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there has been any such thing as this great thing is, or has been heard like it?
Did ever people hear the voice of Elohiym speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and live?
Or has Elohiym assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that Yahuah Elohaykem did for you in Mitsrayim before your eyes?
Unto you it was showed, that you might know that Yahuah he is Elohiym; there is none else beside him.
Out of heaven he made you to hear his voice, that he might instruct you: and upon earth he showed you his great fire; and you heard his words out of the midst of the fire.
And because he loved your fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought you out in his sight with his mighty power out of Mitsrayim;
To drive out nations from before you greater and mightier than you are, to bring you in, to give you their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.
Know therefore this day, and consider it in your heart, that Yahuah he is Elohiym in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.
You shall guard therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command you this day, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days upon the earth, which Yahuah Elohayka gives you, forever.
Then Mosheh severed three cities on this side of the Yardan toward the sunrising;
That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
Namely, Betser in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Re'uveniym; and Ra'moth in Gil'ad, of the Gadiym; and Golan in Bashan, of the Menashshiym.
And this is the Torah which Mosheh set before the children of Yashar'el:
These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Mosheh spoke unto the children of Yashar'el, after they came forth out of Mitsrayim,
On this side of the Yardan, in the valley over against Beyt Pe'or, in the land of Ciychon king of the Emoriym, who dwelt at Cheshbon, whom Mosheh and the children of Yashar'el smote, after they were come forth out of Mitsrayim:
And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Emoriym, which were on this side of the Yardan toward the sunrising;
From Aro'er, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto Mount Siy'on, which is Chermon,
And all the plain on this side of the Yardan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Picgah.
