1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1Hear, O Israel: Thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the children of Anak!
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God is he which goeth over before thee; as a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the LORD hath said unto thee.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12And the LORD said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, ye provoked the LORD to wrath.
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I knew you.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty nights, as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he would destroy you.
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26I prayed therefore unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
