Deuteronomy 29:2-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

² Moses summoned all Israel and spoke to them as follows:

You have seen everything that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, to all his officials, and to his whole land: ³ the great trials that your eyes saw, those great signs and wonders. ⁴ Yet the Lord to this very day has not given you a heart to understand, or eyes to see, or ears to hear.

⁵ “I led you through the wilderness for forty years. Your clothing did not wear out on you, nor did the sandals on your feet. ⁶ You did not eat bread, and you did not drink wine and beer. I did all this so you would know that I am the Lord your God.”

⁷ When you came to this place, and Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out to meet us in battle, we struck them down. ⁸ We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and half of the tribe of Manasseh.
