Deuteronomy 29:9-15
1599 Geneva Bible
9 (A)Keep therefore the words of this covenant and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye shall do.
10 Ye stand this day everyone of you before the Lord your [a]God: your heads of your tribes, your Elders and your officers, even all the men of Israel:
11 Your children, your wives, and thy stranger that is in thy camp, from the hewer of thy wood, unto the drawer of thy water,
12 That thou shouldest [b]pass into the covenant of the Lord thy God, and into his oath which the Lord thy God maketh with thee this day,
13 For to establish thee this day a people unto himself, and that he may be unto thee a God, as he hath said unto thee, and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 Neither make I this covenant and this oath with you only,
15 But as well with him that standeth here with us this day before the Lord our God, as with him [c]that is not here with us this day.
