Deuteronomy 30

 ¹And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt take them to heart among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee,

 ²and shalt return to Jehovah thy God, and shalt hearken to his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy sons, with all thy heart and with all thy soul;

 ³that then Jehovah thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will gather thee again from all the peoples whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.

 ⁴Though there were of you driven out unto the end of the heavens, from thence will Jehovah thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee;

 ⁵and Jehovah thy God will bring thee into the land that thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

 ⁶And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

 ⁷And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses on thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, who have persecuted thee.

 ⁸But thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.

 ⁹And Jehovah thy God will make thee abound in every work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good; for Jehovah will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers;

 ¹⁰if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn to Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

 ¹¹For this commandment which I command thee this day is not too wonderful for thee, neither is it far off.

 ¹²It is not in the heavens, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to the heavens, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?

 ¹³And it is not beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?

 ¹⁴For the word is very near to thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.

 ¹⁵See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil,

 ¹⁶in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

 ¹⁷But if thy heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and thou shalt bow down to other gods and serve them;

 ¹⁸I denounce unto you this day that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days upon the land whereunto thou passest over the Jordan to possess it.

 ¹⁹I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you: life and death have I set before you, blessing and cursing: choose then life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed,

 ²⁰in loving Jehovah thy God, in hearkening to his voice, and in cleaving to him -- for this is thy life and the length of thy days -- that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

Deuteronomy 31

 ¹And Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel;

 ²and he said unto them, I am a hundred and twenty years old this day, I can no more go out and come in; and Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

 ³Jehovah thy God, he will go over before thee, he will destroy these nations from before thee, that thou mayest take possession of them: Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as Jehovah hath said.

 ⁴And Jehovah will do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land; whom he destroyed.

 ⁵And when Jehovah giveth them up before you, ye shall do to them according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.

 ⁶Be strong and courageous, fear them not, neither be afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God, he it is that goeth with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee.

 ⁷And Moses called to Joshua, and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and courageous, for thou must go with this people into the land which Jehovah hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

 ⁸And Jehovah, he it is that goeth before thee: he will be with thee; he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.

 ⁹And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and to all the elders of Israel.

 ¹⁰And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, at the set time of the year of release, at the feast of tabernacles,

 ¹¹when all Israel cometh to appear before Jehovah thy God in the place which he will choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their ears.

 ¹²Gather the people together, the men, and the women, and the children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear Jehovah your God, and take heed to do all the words of this law;

 ¹³and that their children who do not know it may hear it and learn, that they may fear Jehovah your God, as long as ye live in the land, whereunto ye pass over the Jordan to possess it.

 ¹⁴And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, the days are near for thee to die; call Joshua, and present yourselves at the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves at the tent of meeting.

 ¹⁵And Jehovah appeared at the tent in the pillar of cloud; and the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance to the tent.

 ¹⁶And Jehovah said to Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the strange gods of the land into which they enter, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.

 ¹⁷And my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them, and they will say in that day, Have not these evils befallen me because my God is not in my midst?

 ¹⁸And I will entirely hide my face in that day for all the evils that they have wrought, because they turned unto other gods.

 ¹⁹And now, write ye this song, and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.

 ²⁰For I shall bring them into the land which I swore unto their fathers, which floweth with milk and honey; and they will eat and fill themselves, and wax fat, and will turn unto other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.

 ²¹And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles have befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed; for I know their imagination which they are forming already this day, before I bring them into the land which I have sworn [unto them].

 ²²And Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel.

 ²³And [Jehovah] commanded Joshua the son of Nun, and said, Be strong and courageous; for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I have sworn unto them; and I will be with thee.

 ²⁴And it came to pass, when Moses had ended writing the words of this law in a book, until their conclusion,

 ²⁵that Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, saying,

 ²⁶Take this book of the law, and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee;

 ²⁷for I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck. Lo, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah; and how much more after my death!

 ²⁸Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and take heaven and earth to witness against them.

 ²⁹For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and will turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and mischief will befall you at the end of days; because ye do evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.

 ³⁰And Moses spoke in the ears of the whole congregation of Israel the words of this song, until their conclusion.

Mark 15

 ¹And immediately in the morning the chief priests, having taken counsel with the elders and scribes and the whole sanhedrim, bound Jesus and carried [him] away, and delivered [him] up to Pilate.

 ²And Pilate asked him, Art *thou* the King of the Jews? And he answered and said to him, *Thou* sayest.

 ³And the chief priests accused him urgently.

 ⁴And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? See of how many things they bear witness against thee.

 ⁵But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marvelled.

 ⁶But at [the] feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they begged [of him].

 ⁷Now there was the [person] named Barabbas bound with those who had made insurrection with [him], [and] that had committed murder in the insurrection.

 ⁸And the crowd crying out began to beg [that he would do] to them as he had always done.

 ⁹But Pilate answered them saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?

 ¹⁰for he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up through envy.

 ¹¹But the chief priests stirred up the crowd that he might rather release Barabbas to them.

 ¹²And Pilate answering said to them again, What will ye then that I do [to him] whom ye call King of the Jews?

 ¹³And they cried out again, Crucify him.

 ¹⁴And Pilate said to them, What evil then has he done? But they cried out the more urgently, Crucify him.

 ¹⁵And Pilate, desirous of contenting the crowd, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, that he might be crucified.

 ¹⁶And the soldiers led him away into the court which is [called the] praetorium, and they call together the whole band.

 ¹⁷And they clothe him with purple, and bind round on him a crown of thorns which they had plaited.

 ¹⁸And they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

 ¹⁹And they struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and, bending the knee, did him homage.

 ²⁰And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him; and they lead him out that they may crucify him.

 ²¹And they compel to go [with them] a certain passer-by, Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus, that he might carry his cross.

 ²²And they bring him to the place [called] Golgotha, which, being interpreted, is Place of a skull.

 ²³And they offered him wine [to drink] medicated with myrrh; but he did not take [it].

 ²⁴And having crucified him, they part his clothes amongst [themselves], casting lots on them, what each one should take.

 ²⁵And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
