4 DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4

Earnest Exhortations To Obedience, And Dissuasives From Idolatry

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:1

  1     ?  Now therefore hearken, O Yisrael, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that you may live, and go in and possess the land which YAHWEH the Sovereign Ruler of your fathers gives you.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:2

  2    You shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall you diminish ought from it, that you may keep the commandments of YAHWEH your ABBA which I command you.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:3

  3    Your eyes have seen what YAHWEH did because of Baalpeor: for all the men that followed Baalpeor, YAHWEH your ABBA has destroyed them from among you.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:4

  4    But you that did cleave unto YAHWEH your ABBA are alive every one of you this day.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:5

  5    Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as YAHWEH my ABBA commanded me, that you should do so in the land whither you go to possess it.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:6

  6    Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:7

  7    For what nation is there so great, who has Sovereign Ruler so nigh unto them, as YAHWEH our ABBA is in all things that we call upon him for?

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:8

  8    And what nation is there so great, that has statutes and judgments so righteous as all this torah, which I set before you this day?

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:9

  9    Only take heed to yourself, and keep 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;

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:10

  10    Specially the day that you stood before YAHWEH your ABBA in Horeb, when YAHWEH said to 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.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:11

  11    And you came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:12

  12    And YAHWEH spoke unto you out of the midst of the fire: you heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only you heard a voice.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:13

  13    And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:14

  14    And YAHWEH commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that you might do them in the land whither you go over to possess it.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:15

  15    Take you therefore good heed unto yourselves; for you saw no manner of similitude on the day that YAHWEH spoke unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:16

  16    Lest you corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:17

  17    The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flies in the air,

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:18

  18    The likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:19

  19    And lest you lift up your eyes unto heaven, 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 YAHWEH your ABBA has divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:20

  20    But YAHWEH has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as you are this day.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:21

  21    Furthermore YAHWEH was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that I should not go over Yardan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which YAHWEH your ABBA gives you for an inheritance:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:22

  22    But I must die in this land, I must not go over Yardan: but you shall go over, and possess that good land.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:23

  23    Take heed unto yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of YAHWEH your ABBA, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which YAHWEH your ABBA has forbidden you.

Warnings Against Disobedience, And Promises Of Mercy

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:24

  24    For YAHWEH your ABBA is a consuming fire, even a jealous YAHWEH.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:25

  25    When you shall beget children, and children's children, and you shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, and shall do evil in the sight of YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler, to provoke him to anger:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:26

  26    I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that you shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto you go over Yardan to possess it; you shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:27

  27    And YAHWEH shall scatter you among the nations, and you shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither YAHWEH shall lead you.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:28

  28    And there you shall serve gods, the work of adam's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:29

  29    But if from thence you shall seek YAHWEH your Sovereign Ruler, you shall find him, if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:30

  30    When you are in tribulation, and all these things are come upon you, even in the latter days, if you turn to YAHWEH your  Sovereign Ruler, and shall be obedient unto his voice;

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:31

  31    For YAHWEH your ABBA is a compassionate Sovereign Ruler; he will not forsake you, neither destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which he swore unto them.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:32

  32    For ask now of the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that YAHWEH created adam 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?

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:33

  33    Did ever people hear the voice of YAHWEH speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and live?

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:34

  34    Or has YAHWEH 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 YAHWEH your ABBA did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:35

  35    Unto you it was shown, that you might know that YAHWEH he is Sovereign Ruler; there is none else beside him.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:36

  36    Out of heaven he made you to hear his voice, that he might instruct you: and upon earth he shown you his great fire; and you heard his words out of the midst of the fire.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:37

  37    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 Egypt;

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:38

  38    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.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:39

  39    Know therefore this day, and consider it in your heart, that YAHWEH he is Sovereign Ruler in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:40

  40    You shall keep 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 YAHWEH your ABBA gives you, for ever.

Cities Of Refuge Appointed

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:41

  41     ?  Then Mosheh severed three cities on this side Yardan toward the sunrising;

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:42

  42    That the murderer might flee thither, which should murder his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:43

  43    Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:44

  44    And this is the torah which Mosheh set before the children of Yisrael:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:45

  45    These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Mosheh spoke unto the children of Yisrael, after they came forth out of Egypt,

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:46

  46    On this side Yardan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Mosheh and the children of Yisrael smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:47

  47    And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Yardan toward the sunrising;

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:48

  48    From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Zion, which is Hermon,

DEBARIM - DEUTERONOMY 4:49

  49    And all the plain on this side Yardan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
