1
At that time[H6256] the LORD[H3068]said[H559] unto me, Hew[H6458] thee two[H8147]tables[H3871] of stone[H68] like unto the first[H7223], and come up[H5927] unto me into the mount[H2022], and make[H6213] thee an ark[H727] of wood[H6086].
2
And I will write[H3789] on the tables[H3871] the words[H1697] that were in the first[H7223]tables[H3871] which thou brakest[H7665], and thou shalt put[H7760] them in the ark[H727].
3
And I made[H6213] an ark[H727] of shittim[H7848]wood[H6086], and hewed[H6458]two[H8147]tables[H3871] of stone[H68] like unto the first[H7223], and went up[H5927] into the mount[H2022], having the two[H8147]tables[H3871] in mine hand[H3027].
4
And he wrote[H3789] on the tables[H3871], according to the first[H7223]writing[H4385], the ten[H6235]commandments[H1697], which the LORD[H3068]spake[H1696] unto you in the mount[H2022] out of the midst[H8432] of the fire[H784] in the day[H3117] of the assembly[H6951]: and the LORD[H3068]gave[H5414] them unto me.
5
And I turned[H6437] myself and came down[H3381] from the mount[H2022], and put[H7760] the tables[H3871] in the ark[H727] which I had made[H6213]; and there they be, as the LORD[H3068]commanded[H6680] me.
6
And the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] took their journey[H5265] from Beeroth of the children[H1121] of Jaakan[H885] to Mosera[H4149]: there Aaron[H175]died[H4191], and there he was buried[H6912]; and Eleazar[H499] his son[H1121] ministered in the priest's office[H3547] in his stead.
7
From thence they journeyed[H5265] unto Gudgodah[H1412]; and from Gudgodah[H1412] to Jotbath[H3193], a land[H776] of rivers[H5158] of waters[H4325].
8
At that time[H6256] the LORD[H3068]separated[H914] the tribe[H7626] of Levi[H3878], to bear[H5375] the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of the LORD[H3068], to stand[H5975]before[H6440] the LORD[H3068] to minister[H8334] unto him, and to bless[H1288] in his name[H8034], unto this day[H3117].
9
Wherefore Levi[H3878] hath no part[H2506] nor inheritance[H5159] with his brethren[H251]; the LORD[H3068] is his inheritance[H5159], according as the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430]promised[H1696] him.
10
And I stayed[H5975] in the mount[H2022], according to the first[H7223]time[H3117], forty[H705]days[H3117] and forty[H705]nights[H3915]; and the LORD[H3068]hearkened[H8085] unto me at that time[H6471] also, and the LORD[H3068]would[H14] not destroy[H7843] thee.
11
And the LORD[H3068]said[H559] unto me, Arise[H6965], take[H3212] thy journey[H4550]before[H6440] the people[H5971], that they may go in[H935] and possess[H3423] the land[H776], which I sware[H7650] unto their fathers[H1] to give[H5414] unto them.
12
And now, Israel[H3478], what doth the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430]require[H7592] of thee, but to fear[H3372] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430], to walk[H3212] in all his ways[H1870], and to love[H157] him, and to serve[H5647] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] with all thy heart[H3824] and with all thy soul[H5315],
13
To keep[H8104] the commandments[H4687] of the LORD[H3068], and his statutes[H2708], which I command[H6680] thee this day[H3117] for thy good?[H2896]
14
Behold, the heaven[H8064] and the heaven[H8064] of heavens[H8064] is the LORD'S thy God[H430], the earth[H776] also, with all that therein is.
15
Only the LORD[H3068] had a delight[H2836] in thy fathers[H1] to love[H157] them, and he chose[H977] their seed[H2233]after[H310] them, even you above all people[H5971], as it is this day[H3117].
16Circumcise[H4135] therefore the foreskin[H6190] of your heart[H3824], and be no more stiffnecked[H6203].
17
For the LORD[H3068] your God[H430] is God[H410] of gods[H430], and Lord[H113] of lords[H113], a great[H1419]God[H410], a mighty[H1368], and a terrible[H3372], which regardeth[H5375] not persons[H6440], nor taketh[H3947]reward[H7810]:
18
He doth execute[H6213] the judgment[H4941] of the fatherless[H3490] and widow[H490], and loveth[H157] the stranger[H1616], in giving[H5414] him food[H3899] and raiment[H8071].
19Love[H157] ye therefore the stranger[H1616]: for ye were strangers[H1616] in the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714].
20
Thou shalt fear[H3372] the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430]; him shalt thou serve[H5647], and to him shalt thou cleave[H1692], and swear[H7650] by his name[H8034].
21
He is thy praise[H8416], and he is thy God[H430], that hath done[H6213] for thee these great[H1419] and terrible things[H3372], which thine eyes[H5869] have seen[H7200].
22
Thy fathers[H1] went down[H3381] into Egypt[H4714] with threescore and ten[H7657]persons[H5315]; and now the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] hath made[H7760] thee as the stars[H3556] of heaven[H8064] for multitude[H7230].
