31 Then Moses went and spoke these words to all Israel,
2 and said to them, “I am a hundred and twenty years old this day. I cannot go out and in anymore. Also, the LORD has said to me, ‘You shall not go over this Jordan.’
3 “The LORD your God, He will go over before you. He will destroy these nations before you. And you shall possess them. Joshua, he shall go before you, as the LORD has said.
4 “And the LORD shall do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorites (whom He destroyed), and to their land.
5 “And the LORD shall give them before you, so that you may do to them according to every Commandment which I have commanded you.
6 “Have courage, therefore, and be strong. Do not fear or be afraid of them. For the LORD your God Himself goes with you. He will neither fail you nor forsake you.”
7 And Moses called Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, “Be of a good courage and strong. For you shall go with this people to the land which the LORD has sworn to their fathers, to give them. And you shall give it to them to inherit.
8 “And the LORD Himself goes before you. He will be with you. He will neither fail you nor forsake you. Do not fear or be discomforted.”
9 And Moses wrote this Law and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi (who bore the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD) and to all the elders of Israel.
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, “Every seventh year, the year of freedom in the Feast of the Tabernacles,
11 “when all Israel shall come to appear before the LORD your God and the place which He shall choose, you shall read this Law before all Israel so that they may hear it.
12 “Gather the people together — men, women, children, and the stranger who is within your gates — so that they may hear, and that they may learn and fear the LORD your God, and keep and observe all the words of this Law,
13 “and that their children who have not known it may hear it and learn to fear the LORD your God as long as you live in the land to which you go over Jordan to possess.”
14 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, the day has come that you must die. Call Joshua and stand in the Tabernacle of the Congregation so that I may give him a charge.” So, Moses and Joshua went and stood in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
15 And the LORD appeared in the Tabernacle, in the pillar of a cloud. And the pillar of the cloud stood over the door of the Tabernacle.
16 And the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, you shall sleep with your fathers. And this people will rise up and go a whoring after the gods of a strange land (wherever they go in) and will forsake Me and break My Covenant which I have made with them.
17 “Therefore, My wrath will grow hot against them on that day. And I will forsake them and will hide My Face from them. Then they shall be consumed. And many adversities and tribulations shall come upon them. “So, then, they will say, ‘Have not these troubles come upon me because God is not with me?’
18 “But I will surely hide My Face on that day because of all the evil which they shall commit on the day they are turned to other gods.
19 “Now, therefore, write this song for yourselves and teach it to the children of Israel. Put it in their mouths, so that this song may be My witness against the children of Israel.
20 “For I will bring them into the land which I swore to their fathers, that flows with milk and honey. And they shall eat, and fill themselves, and grow fat. Then they shall turn to other gods and serve them, and contemn Me and break My Covenant.
21 “And then, when many adversities and tribulations shall come upon them, this song shall answer them to their faces as a witness. For it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their descendants. For I know the intent of their imagination even now, before I have brought them into the land which I swore.”
22 Moses, therefore, wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel,
23 and gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a charge, and said, “Be strong and of a good courage. For you shall bring the children of Israel into the land which I swore to them. And I will be with you.”
24 And when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this Law in a Book — when he had finished them —
25 then Moses commanded the Levites who bore the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD, saying,
26 “Take the Book of this Law and put it inside of the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD your God, so that it may be there for a witness against you.
27 “For I know your rebellion and your stiff neck. Behold, I am still alive with you this day and you are rebellious against the LORD. How much more so, then, after my death?
28 “Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, so that I may speak these words in their audience and call Heaven and Earth to record against them.
29 “For I am sure that after my death, you will be utterly corrupt and turn from the way which I have commanded you. Therefore, evil will come upon you in the end, because you will commit evil in the sight of the LORD by provoking Him to anger through the work of your hands.”
30 Thus Moses spoke the words of this song in the audience of all the Congregation of Israel, until he had ended them.
MEM
97 Oh how love I Your Law! It is my meditation continually.
98 By Your Commandments You have made me wiser than my enemies, for they are ever with me.
99 I have had more understanding than all my teachers, for Your Testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understood more than the aged, because I kept Your Precepts.
101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep Your Word.
102 I have not turned away from Your Judgments, for You have taught me.
103 How sweet are Your promises to my mouth; yea, more than honey to my mouth!
104 By Your Precepts I have gotten understanding. Therefore, I hate all the ways of falsehood.
NUN
105 Your Word is a lantern to my feet, and a light to my paths.
106 I have sworn and will perform it, that I will keep Your righteous Judgments.
107 I am very afflicted, O LORD. Quicken me according to Your Word.
108 O LORD, I beg you, accept the free offering of my mouth and teach me Your Judgments.
109 My life is continually in my hand. Yet, I do not forget Your Law.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me, but I do not swerve from Your Precepts.
111 I have inherited Your Testimonies forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
112 I have extended my heart to fulfill Your Statutes always, even to the end.
SAMECH
113 I hate doublemindedness. But Your Law do I love.
114 You are my refuge and shield, and I trust in Your Word.
115 Away from me, you wicked, for I will keep the Commandments of my God.
116 Establish me according to Your Promise, that I may live. And do not disappoint my hope.
117 Hold me up, and I shall be safe; and I will delight continually in Your Statutes.
118 You have rejected all those who depart from Your Statutes, for their deceit is useless.
119 You have taken away all the wicked of the Earth like dross, therefore I love Your Testimonies.
120 My flesh trembles for the fear of You, and I am afraid of Your Judgments.
58 “Cry aloud! Do not hold back! Lift up your voice like a trumpet and show My people their transgression, and to the House of Jacob their sins.
2 “Still, they seek Me daily, and would know My ways, even as a nation that did righteously, and had not forsaken the Statutes of their God. They ask of Me the Ordinances of Justice. They will draw near to God, saying,
3 “‘Why do we fast and You do not see it? We punish ourselves and You do not regard it?’ Behold, on the day of your fast you will seek your will and require all your debts.
4 “Behold, you fast for strife and debate and to strike with the fist of wickedness. You shall not fast as you do today, to make your voice to be heard above.
5 “Is it such a fast that I have chosen, that a man should afflict his soul for a day, and to bow down his head, as a bull rush, and to lie down in sackcloth and ashes? Would you call this a fast, or an acceptable day to the LORD?
6 “Is not this the fast that I have chosen: to loosen the bands of wickedness, to take off the heavy burdens and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
7 “Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, and that you bring the poor, who wander, into your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him and do not hide yourself from your own flesh?
8 “Then shall your light break forth as the morning and your health shall grow speedily. Your righteousness shall go before you. The Glory of the LORD shall embrace you.
9 “Then shall you call, and the LORD shall answer. You shall cry, and He shall say, ‘Here I am.’ If you take away the yoke from the midst of you, the putting forth of the finger and wicked speaking,
10 “if you pour out your soul to the hungry and refresh the troubled soul, then shall your light spring out in the darkness. And your darkness shall be as the noon day.
11 “And the LORD shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and make your bones fat. And you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
12 “And those who shall build the old waste places shall be from you. You shall raise up the foundations for many generations. And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of the Paths to dwell in.
13 “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your will on My Holy Day, and call the Sabbath a delight to consecrate it, glorious to the LORD, and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways or seeking your own will or speaking a vain word,
14 “then shall you delight in the LORD. And I will cause you to mount upon the high places of the Earth, and feed yourselves with the heritage of Jacob, your father. For the Mouth of the LORD has spoken it.”
6 “Be careful that you do not give your alms before men to be seen by them. Or else you shall have no reward from your Father Who is in Heaven.
2 “Therefore, when you give your alms, you shall not make a trumpet to be blown before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, to be praised by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward.
3 “But when you do your alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand does.
4 “so that your alms may be in secret. And your Father, Who sees in secret, He will reward you openly.
5 “And when you pray, do not be as the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues, and in the corners of the streets, because they wish to be seen by man. Truly I say to you, they have their reward.
6 “But when you pray, enter into your chamber. And when you have shut your door, pray to your Father Who is in secret. And your Father, Who sees in secret, shall reward you openly.
7 “Also, when you pray, use no meaningless repetitions as the heathen. For they think they are heard for their many words.
8 “Therefore, do not be like them. For your Father knows your needs before you ask Him.
9 “After this manner therefore pray, ‘Our Father Who are in Heaven, hallowed be Your Name.
10 “Your Kingdom come. Your will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven.
11 “Give us this day our daily bread.
12 “And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
13 “And lead us not into trial. But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory forever. Amen.’
14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15 “But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, no more will your Father forgive you your trespasses.
16 “Moreover, when you fast, do not look sour as the hypocrites. For they disfigure their faces, to show men that they are fasting. Truly I say to you that they have their reward.
17 “But when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face,
18 “so that you do not fast for man to see, but your Father, Who is in secret. And your Father, Who sees in secret, will reward you openly.
19 “Do not lay up treasures for yourselves on the Earth, where the moth and rust corrupt, and where thieves dig through and steal.
20 “But lay up treasures for yourselves in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust corrupts, and where thieves neither dig through nor steal.
21 “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 “The light of the body is the eye. If then your eye is sound, your whole body shall be light.
23 “But if your eye is wicked, then all your body shall be dark. So, if the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness?
24 “No man can serve two masters. For either he shall hate the one, and love the other, or else he shall lean to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and riches.
25 “Therefore I say to you, do not be careful for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, what you shall put on. Has not life more worth than food? And the body than clothing?
26 “Behold the birds of the heaven. For they neither sow nor reap, nor carry into the barns. Yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much better than they?
27 “Which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his lifespan?
28 “And why do you care for clothes? Learn how the lilies of the field grow. They neither weary nor spin.
29 “Yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 “So, if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall He not do much more to you? O you of little faith.
31 “Therefore, take no thought saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘How shall we be clothed?’
32 “For the Gentiles seek after all these things. And your Heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.
33 “But seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
34 “Care not then for tomorrow. For tomorrow shall care for itself. The day has enough with its own grief.”
