Beyond the Jordan, (A)in the land of Moab, Moses undertook to explain this law, saying, “The Lord our God said to us in Horeb, (B)‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Turn and take your journey, and go to (C)the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neighbors in (D)the Arabah, (E)in the hill country and in the lowland and in the Negeb and (F)by the seacoast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. See, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession of the land that the Lord swore to your fathers, (G)to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their offspring after them.’

East of the Jordan River, in the land of Moab, Moses began to expound this Law: “The Lord our God spoke to us in Horeb. He said, ‘You have been at this mountain long enough. Break camp,[a] get going, and proceed to the hill country of the Amorites and all the nearby places in the Arabah desert, the highlands, the foothills, the Negev,[b] the coastal plains, all of the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon as far as the great river, the Euphrates. Look! I’ve given you the land that lies ahead. Go in and possess the land that I, the Lord, promised to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as well as to their descendants.’”
