Deuteronomy 31
New King James Version
Joshua the New Leader of Israel(A)
31 Then Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel. 2 And he said to them: “I (B)am one hundred and twenty years old today. I can no longer (C)go out and come in. Also the Lord has said to me, (D)‘You shall not cross over this Jordan.’ 3 The Lord your God (E)Himself crosses over before you; He will destroy these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess them. (F)Joshua himself crosses over before you, just (G)as the Lord has said. 4 (H)And the Lord will do to them (I)as He did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites and their land, when He destroyed them. 5 (J)The Lord will give them over to you, that you may do to them according to every commandment which I have commanded you. 6 (K)Be strong and of good courage, (L)do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, (M)He is the One who goes with you. (N)He will not leave you nor forsake you.”
7 Then Moses called Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, (O)“Be strong and of good courage, for you must go with this people to the land which the Lord has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you shall cause them to inherit it. 8 And the Lord, (P)He is the One who goes before you. (Q)He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.”
The Law to Be Read Every Seven Years
9 So Moses wrote this law (R)and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi, (S)who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel. 10 And Moses commanded them, saying: “At the end of every seven years, at the appointed time in the (T)year of release, (U)at the Feast of Tabernacles, 11 when all Israel comes to (V)appear before the Lord your God in the (W)place which He chooses, (X)you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing. 12 (Y)Gather the people together, men and women and little ones, and the stranger who is within your gates, that they may hear and that they may learn to fear the Lord your God and carefully observe all the words of this law, 13 and that their children, (Z)who have not known it, (AA)may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God as long as you live in the land which you cross the Jordan to possess.”
Prediction of Israel’s Rebellion
14 Then the Lord said to Moses, (AB)“Behold, the days approach when you must die; call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of meeting, that (AC)I may [a]inaugurate him.”
So Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tabernacle of meeting. 15 Now (AD)the Lord appeared at the tabernacle in a pillar of cloud, and the pillar of cloud stood above the door of the tabernacle.
16 And the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, you will [b]rest with your fathers; and this people will (AE)rise and (AF)play the harlot with the gods of the foreigners of the land, where they go to be among them, and they will (AG)forsake Me and (AH)break My covenant which I have made with them. 17 Then My anger shall be (AI)aroused against them in that day, and (AJ)I will forsake them, and I will (AK)hide My face from them, and they shall be [c]devoured. And many evils and troubles shall befall them, so that they will say in that day, (AL)‘Have not these evils come upon us because our God is (AM)not among us?’ 18 And (AN)I will surely hide My face in that day because of all the evil which they have done, in that they have turned to other gods.
19 “Now therefore, write down this song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be (AO)a witness for Me against the children of Israel. 20 When I have brought them to the land flowing with milk and honey, of which I swore to their fathers, and they have eaten and filled themselves (AP)and grown fat, (AQ)then they will turn to other gods and serve them; and they will provoke Me and break My covenant. 21 Then it shall be, (AR)when many evils and troubles have come upon them, that this song will testify against them as a witness; for it will not be forgotten in the mouths of their descendants, for (AS)I know the inclination (AT)of their behavior today, even before I have brought them to the land of which I swore to give them.”
22 Therefore Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel. 23 (AU)Then He inaugurated Joshua the son of Nun, and said, (AV)“Be strong and of good courage; for you shall bring the children of Israel into the land of which I swore to them, and I will be with you.”
24 So it was, when Moses had completed writing the words of this law in a book, when they were finished, 25 that Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying: 26 “Take this Book of the Law, (AW)and put it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there (AX)as a witness against you; 27 (AY)for I know your rebellion and your (AZ)stiff neck. If today, while I am yet alive with you, you have been rebellious against the Lord, then how much more after my death? 28 Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their hearing (BA)and call heaven and earth to witness against them. 29 For I know that after my death you will (BB)become utterly corrupt, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you. And (BC)evil will befall you (BD)in the latter days, because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger through the work of your hands.”
The Song of Moses
30 Then Moses spoke in the hearing of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song until they were ended:

Joshua to Succeed Moses
31 Then Moses went out and spoke these words to all Israel: 2 “I am now a hundred and twenty years old(A) and I am no longer able to lead you.(B) The Lord has said to me, ‘You shall not cross the Jordan.’(C) 3 The Lord your God himself will cross(D) over ahead of you.(E) He will destroy these nations(F) before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will cross(G) over ahead of you, as the Lord said. 4 And the Lord will do to them what he did to Sihon and Og,(H) the kings of the Amorites, whom he destroyed along with their land. 5 The Lord will deliver(I) them to you, and you must do to them all that I have commanded you. 6 Be strong and courageous.(J) Do not be afraid or terrified(K) because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you;(L) he will never leave you(M) nor forsake(N) you.”
7 Then Moses summoned Joshua and said(O) to him in the presence of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the Lord swore to their ancestors to give them,(P) and you must divide it among them as their inheritance. 8 The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you;(Q) he will never leave you nor forsake you.(R) Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
Public Reading of the Law
9 So Moses wrote(S) down this law and gave it to the Levitical priests, who carried(T) the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel. 10 Then Moses commanded them: “At the end of every seven years, in the year for canceling debts,(U) during the Festival of Tabernacles,(V) 11 when all Israel comes to appear(W) before the Lord your God at the place he will choose,(X) you shall read this law(Y) before them in their hearing. 12 Assemble the people—men, women and children, and the foreigners residing in your towns—so they can listen and learn(Z) to fear(AA) the Lord your God and follow carefully all the words of this law. 13 Their children,(AB) who do not know this law, must hear it and learn to fear the Lord your God as long as you live in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”
Israel’s Rebellion Predicted
14 The Lord said to Moses, “Now the day of your death(AC) is near. Call Joshua(AD) and present yourselves at the tent of meeting, where I will commission him.(AE)” So Moses and Joshua came and presented themselves at the tent of meeting.(AF)
15 Then the Lord appeared at the tent in a pillar of cloud, and the cloud stood over the entrance to the tent.(AG) 16 And the Lord said to Moses: “You are going to rest with your ancestors,(AH) and these people will soon prostitute(AI) themselves to the foreign gods of the land they are entering. They will forsake(AJ) me and break the covenant I made with them. 17 And in that day I will become angry(AK) with them and forsake(AL) them; I will hide(AM) my face(AN) from them, and they will be destroyed. Many disasters(AO) and calamities will come on them, and in that day they will ask, ‘Have not these disasters come on us because our God is not with us?’(AP) 18 And I will certainly hide my face in that day because of all their wickedness in turning to other gods.
19 “Now write(AQ) down this song and teach it to the Israelites and have them sing it, so that it may be a witness(AR) for me against them. 20 When I have brought them into the land flowing with milk and honey, the land I promised on oath to their ancestors,(AS) and when they eat their fill and thrive, they will turn to other gods(AT) and worship them,(AU) rejecting me and breaking my covenant.(AV) 21 And when many disasters and calamities come on them,(AW) this song will testify against them, because it will not be forgotten by their descendants. I know what they are disposed to do,(AX) even before I bring them into the land I promised them on oath.” 22 So Moses wrote(AY) down this song that day and taught it to the Israelites.
23 The Lord gave this command(AZ) to Joshua son of Nun: “Be strong and courageous,(BA) for you will bring the Israelites into the land I promised them on oath, and I myself will be with you.”
24 After Moses finished writing(BB) in a book the words of this law(BC) from beginning to end, 25 he gave this command to the Levites who carried(BD) the ark of the covenant of the Lord: 26 “Take this Book of the Law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God. There it will remain as a witness against you.(BE) 27 For I know how rebellious(BF) and stiff-necked(BG) you are. If you have been rebellious against the Lord while I am still alive and with you, how much more will you rebel after I die! 28 Assemble before me all the elders of your tribes and all your officials, so that I can speak these words in their hearing and call the heavens and the earth to testify against them.(BH) 29 For I know that after my death you are sure to become utterly corrupt(BI) and to turn from the way I have commanded you. In days to come, disaster(BJ) will fall on you because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord and arouse his anger by what your hands have made.”
The Song of Moses
30 And Moses recited the words of this song from beginning to end in the hearing of the whole assembly of Israel:
Isaiah 55:6-56:8
New King James Version
Isaiah 55:6-56:8
New King James Version
6 (A)Seek the Lord while He may be (B)found,
Call upon Him while He is near.
7 (C)Let the [a]wicked forsake his way,
And the unrighteous man (D)his thoughts;
Let him return to the Lord,
(E)And He will have mercy on him;
And to our God,
For He will abundantly pardon.
8 “For(F) My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.
9 “For(G) as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts.
10 “For (H)as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
And do not return there,
But water the earth,
And make it bring forth and bud,
That it may give seed to the sower
And bread to the eater,
11 (I)So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me [b]void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall (J)prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
12 “For(K) you shall go out with joy,
And be led out with peace;
The mountains and the hills
Shall (L)break forth into singing before you,
And (M)all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 (N)Instead of (O)the thorn shall come up the cypress tree,
And instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree;
And it shall be to the Lord (P)for a name,
For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”
Salvation for the Gentiles
56 Thus says the Lord:
“Keep justice, and do righteousness,
(Q)For My salvation is about to come,
And My righteousness to be revealed.
2 Blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who lays hold on it;
(R)Who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3 Do not let (S)the son of the foreigner
Who has joined himself to the Lord
Speak, saying,
“The Lord has utterly separated me from His people”;
Nor let the (T)eunuch say,
“Here I am, a dry tree.”
4 For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And hold fast My covenant,
5 Even to them I will give in (U)My house
And within My walls a place (V)and a name
Better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give [c]them an everlasting name
That shall not be cut off.
6 “Also the sons of the foreigner
Who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him,
And to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants—
Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And holds fast My covenant—
7 Even them I will (W)bring to My holy mountain,
And make them joyful in My (X)house of prayer.
(Y)Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
Will be (Z)accepted on My altar;
For (AA)My house shall be called a house of prayer (AB)for all nations.”
8 The Lord God, (AC)who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says,
(AD)“Yet I will gather to him
Others besides those who are gathered to him.”

Salvation for Others
56 This is what the Lord says:
“Maintain justice(AB)
and do what is right,(AC)
for my salvation(AD) is close at hand
and my righteousness(AE) will soon be revealed.
2 Blessed(AF) is the one who does this—
the person who holds it fast,
who keeps the Sabbath(AG) without desecrating it,
and keeps their hands from doing any evil.”
3 Let no foreigner(AH) who is bound to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”(AI)
And let no eunuch(AJ) complain,
“I am only a dry tree.”
4 For this is what the Lord says:
“To the eunuchs(AK) who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant(AL)—
5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls(AM)
a memorial(AN) and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name(AO)
that will endure forever.(AP)
6 And foreigners(AQ) who bind themselves to the Lord
to minister(AR) to him,
to love the name(AS) of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(AT) without desecrating it
and who hold fast to my covenant—
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain(AU)
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(AV)
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
a house of prayer for all nations.(AW)”(AX)

3 Assyria shall (B)not save us,
(C)We will not ride on horses,
Nor will we say anymore to the work of our hands, ‘You are our gods.’
(D)For in You the fatherless finds mercy.”
4 “I will heal their (E)backsliding,
I will (F)love them freely,
For My anger has turned away from him.
5 I will be like the (G)dew to Israel;
He shall [b]grow like the lily,
And [c]lengthen his roots like Lebanon.
6 His branches shall [d]spread;
(H)His beauty shall be like an olive tree,
And (I)his fragrance like Lebanon.
7 (J)Those who dwell under his shadow shall return;
They shall be revived like grain,
And [e]grow like a vine.
Their [f]scent shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 “Ephraim shall say, ‘What have I to do anymore with idols?’

Weep (E)between the porch and the altar;

(G)Why should they say among the peoples,

The Land Refreshed(H)
18 Then the Lord will (I)be zealous for His land,
And pity His people.
19 The Lord will answer and say to His people,
“Behold, I will send you (J)grain and new wine and oil,
And you will be satisfied by them;
I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.
20 “But (K)I will remove far from you (L)the northern army,
And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land,
With his face toward the eastern sea
And his back (M)toward the western sea;
His stench will come up,
And his foul odor will rise,
Because he has done [c]monstrous things.”
21 Fear not, O land;
Be glad and rejoice,
For the Lord has done [d]marvelous things!
22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field;
For (N)the open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And (O)rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the [e]former rain faithfully,
And He (P)will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
25 “So I will restore to you the years (Q)that the swarming [f]locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,

And praise the name of the Lord your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
And My people shall never be put to (S)shame.

And there is no other.

19 The Lord replied[a] to them:
“I am sending you grain, new wine(P) and olive oil,(Q)
enough to satisfy you fully;(R)
never again will I make you
an object of scorn(S) to the nations.
20 “I will drive the northern horde(T) far from you,
pushing it into a parched and barren land;
its eastern ranks will drown in the Dead Sea

And its stench(U) will go up;
its smell will rise.”
Surely he has done great things!
21 Do not be afraid,(V) land of Judah;
be glad and rejoice.(W)
Surely the Lord has done great things!(X)
22 Do not be afraid, you wild animals,

He sends you abundant showers,(AE)
both autumn(AF) and spring rains,(AG) as before.
24 The threshing floors will be filled with grain;

the great locust and the young locust,
the other locusts and the locust swarm[b]—
my great army(AL) that I sent among you.
26 You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,(AM)
and you will praise(AN) the name of the Lord your God,
who has worked wonders(AO) for you;
never again will my people be shamed.(AP)
27 Then you will know(AQ) that I am in Israel,
that I am the Lord(AR) your God,
and that there is no other;
never again will my people be shamed.(AS)

Israel Rejects the Gospel
14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear (A)without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
(B)“How beautiful are the feet of those who [a]preach the gospel of peace,
Who bring glad tidings of good things!”
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (C)“Lord, who has believed our report?” 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
(D)“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”
