-
You answered me, “What you propose to do is good.”
-
The idea seemed good to me; so I selected twelve of you, one man from each tribe.
-
Taking with them some of the fruit of the land, they brought it down to us and reported, “It is a good land that the Lord our God is giving us.”
-
“No one from this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your ancestors,
-
And the little ones that you said would be taken captive, your children who do not yet know good from bad—they will enter the land. I will give it to them and they will take possession of it.
-
Let me go over and see the good land beyond the Jordan—that fine hill country and Lebanon.”
-
The Lord was angry with me because of you, and he solemnly swore that I would not cross the Jordan and enter the good land the Lord your God is giving you as your inheritance.
-
I will die in this land; I will not cross the Jordan; but you are about to cross over and take possession of that good land.
-
The Lord heard you when you spoke to me, and the Lord said to me, “I have heard what this people said to you. Everything they said was good.
-
houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied,
-
Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight, so that it may go well with you and you may go in and take over the good land the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors,
-
For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills;
-
When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you.
-
Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the Lord your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.
-
and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?
-
Then the Lord’s anger will burn against you, and he will shut up the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce, and you will soon perish from the good land the Lord is giving you.
-
Be careful to obey all these regulations I am giving you, so that it may always go well with you and your children after you, because you will be doing what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord your God.
-
The Lord said to me: “What they say is good.
-
Then you and the Levites and the foreigners residing among you shall rejoice in all the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your household.
