6	The Lorde our God spake vnto vs in Horeb, saying: Ye haue dwelt long inough in this mount.	“The LORD our God said to us in Horeb, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain.	The LORD our God said to us at Horeb, “You have stayed long enough at this mountain.
7	Turne you and take your iourney, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and vnto all the places nye therevnto, both vnto the playne, and hilles, and dales, to the south, to the seas side, to the lande of Chanaan, and vnto Libanon, euen vnto the great riuer, the riuer Euphrates.	Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neighbors in the Arabah, in the hill country and in the lowland and in the Negeb and by the seacoast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.	Break camp and advance into the hill country of the Amorites; go to all the neighboring peoples in the Arabah, in the mountains, in the western foothills, in the Negev and along the coast, to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates.
8	Beholde, I haue set the lande before you: Go in and possesse the land which the Lord sware vnto your fathers, Abraham, Isahac, and Iacob, to geue vnto them, & to their seede after them.	See, I have set the land before you. Go in and take possession of the land that the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their offspring after them.’	See, I have given you this land. Go in and take possession of the land the LORD swore he would give to your fathers—to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—and to their descendants after them.”
9	And I spake vnto you in the same time, saying: I am not able to beare you my selfe alone.	“At that time I said to you, ‘I am not able to bear you by myself.	At that time I said to you, “You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone.
10	For the Lorde your God hath multiplied you: so that you be this day as the starres of heauen in number.	The LORD your God has multiplied you, and behold, you are today as numerous as the stars of heaven.	The LORD your God has increased your numbers so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky.
11	(The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many mo as ye are, and blesse you as he hath promised you.)	May the LORD, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are and bless you, as he has promised you!	May the LORD, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised!
12	Howe can I my selfe alone, beare your cumbraunce, your charge, & your stryfe that is among you?	How can I bear by myself the weight and burden of you and your strife?	But how can I bear your problems and your burdens and your disputes all by myself?
13	Bryng you men of wysdome, and of vnderstanding, and expert, accordyng to your tribes, and I wyll make them rulers ouer you.	Choose for your tribes wise, understanding, and experienced men, and I will appoint them as your heads.’	Choose some wise, understanding and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will set them over you.”
14	And ye aunswered me, & sayde: That which yu hast spoken, is good for vs to do.	And you answered me, ‘The thing that you have spoken is good for us to do.’	You answered me, “What you propose to do is good.”
15	And so out of your tribes I toke the chiefe men of wysdome, and that were expert, and made them rulers ouer you, captaynes ouer thousandes, & captaines ouer hundredes, captaines ouer fiftie, and captaines ouer ten, and officers among your tribes.	So I took the heads of your tribes, wise and experienced men, and set them as heads over you, commanders of thousands, commanders of hundreds, commanders of fifties, commanders of tens, and officers, throughout your tribes.	So I took the leading men of your tribes, wise and respected men, and appointed them to have authority over you—as commanders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens and as tribal officials.
16	And I charged your Iudges that same tyme, saying: Heare the cause of your brethren, and iudge righteously betweene euery man and his brother, and the straunger that is with hym.	And I charged your judges at that time, ‘Hear the cases between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother or the alien who is with him.	And I charged your judges at that time, “Hear the disputes between your people and judge fairly, whether the case is between two Israelites or between an Israelite and a foreigner residing among you.
17	Ye shall haue no respect of any person in iudgement, but you shall heare the small aswell as the great: You shall not feare the face of any man, for the iudgement is Gods. And the cause that is to harde for you, referre it vnto me, and I wyll heare it.	You shall not be partial in judgment. You shall hear the small and the great alike. You shall not be intimidated by anyone, for the judgment is God’s. And the case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.’	Do not show partiality in judging; hear both small and great alike. Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too hard for you, and I will hear it.”
18	And I comaunded you the same season, all the thinges which ye should do.	And I commanded you at that time all the things that you should do.	And at that time I told you everything you were to do.
19	And when we departed from Horeb, we went thorow all that great and terrible wyldernesse, as ye haue seene by the way of the mountayne of the Amorites, as the Lorde our God commaunded vs: and we came to Cades Barnea.	“Then we set out from Horeb and went through all that great and terrifying wilderness that you saw, on the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us. And we came to Kadesh-barnea.	Then, as the LORD our God commanded us, we set out from Horeb and went toward the hill country of the Amorites through all that vast and dreadful wilderness that you have seen, and so we reached Kadesh Barnea.
20	And I sayd vnto you: Ye are come vnto ye mountaine of ye Amorites, which the Lorde our God doth geue vnto vs.	And I said to you, ‘You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving us.	Then I said to you, “You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving us.
21	Beholde, the Lorde thy God hath set the lande before thee: go vp and possesse it, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath sayd vnto thee: feare not, neither be discouraged.	See, the LORD your God has set the land before you. Go up, take possession, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has told you. Do not fear or be dismayed.’	See, the LORD your God has given you the land. Go up and take possession of it as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, told you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
22	And ye came vnto me euery one, and sayde: we wyll sende men before vs, to searche vs out the land, and to bryng vs worde agayne what way we must go vp by, & vnto what cities we shall come.	Then all of you came near me and said, ‘Let us send men before us, that they may explore the land for us and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up and the cities into which we shall come.’	Then all of you came to me and said, “Let us send men ahead to spy out the land for us and bring back a report about the route we are to take and the towns we will come to.”
23	And the saying pleased me well: and I toke twelue men of you, of euery tribe one.	The thing seemed good to me, and I took twelve men from you, one man from each tribe.	The idea seemed good to me; so I selected twelve of you, one man from each tribe.
24	Whiche departed, & went vp into that mountayne, and came vnto the valley Eschol, and searched it out,	And they turned and went up into the hill country, and came to the Valley of Eshcol and spied it out.	They left and went up into the hill country, and came to the Valley of Eshkol and explored it.
25	And toke of the lande in their handes, and brought it vnto vs, and brought vs word agayne, and sayd: It is a good lande whiche the Lorde our God doth geue vs.	And they took in their hands some of the fruit of the land and brought it down to us, and brought us word again and said, ‘It is a good land that the LORD our God is giving us.’	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.”
26	Notwithstandyng, ye woulde not go vp, but were disobedient vnto the word of the Lorde your God,	“Yet you would not go up, but rebelled against the command of the LORD your God.	But you were unwilling to go up; you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God.
27	And murmured in your tentes, and said: Because ye Lord hateth vs, therfore hath he brought vs out of the lande of Egypt, to deliuer vs into the hande of the Amorites, and to destroy vs.	And you murmured in your tents and said, ‘Because the LORD hated us he has brought us out of the land of Egypt, to give us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.	You grumbled in your tents and said, “The LORD hates us; so he brought us out of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us.
28	Whyther shal we go vp? Our brethren haue discouraged our heart, saying: the people is greater and taller then we, the cities are great, and walled euen vp to heauen, and moreouer we haue seene the sonnes of the Anakims there.	Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our hearts melt, saying, “The people are greater and taller than we. The cities are great and fortified up to heaven. And besides, we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.”’	Where can we go? Our brothers have made our hearts melt in fear. They say, ‘The people are stronger and taller than we are; the cities are large, with walls up to the sky. We even saw the Anakites there.’”
29	Then I sayde vnto you: Dreade not, nor be afraide of them.	Then I said to you, ‘Do not be in dread or afraid of them.	Then I said to you, “Do not be terrified; do not be afraid of them.
30	The Lorde your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, accordyng to all that he dyd vnto you in Egypt before your eyes:	The LORD your God who goes before you will himself fight for you, just as he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,	The LORD your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes,
31	And in the wyldernesse, where thou hast seene howe that the Lord thy God bare thee, euen as a man doth beare his sonne, in al the way which ye haue gone by, vntill ye came vnto this place:	and in the wilderness, where you have seen how the LORD your God carried you, as a man carries his son, all the way that you went until you came to this place.’	and in the wilderness. There you saw how the LORD your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place.”
32	And yet in this thing ye did not beleue the Lorde your God.	Yet in spite of this word you did not believe the LORD your God,	In spite of this, you did not trust in the LORD your God,
33	He went in the way before you, to searche you out a place to pitche your tentes in, in fyre by nyght, yt ye myght see what way to go, & in a cloude by day.	who went before you in the way to seek you out a place to pitch your tents, in fire by night and in the cloud by day, to show you by what way you should go.	who went ahead of you on your journey, in fire by night and in a cloud by day, to search out places for you to camp and to show you the way you should go.
34	And the Lorde hearde the voyce of your wordes, & was wroth, and sware, saying:	“And the LORD heard your words and was angered, and he swore,	When the LORD heard what you said, he was angry and solemnly swore:
35	There shall not one of these men, and of this frowarde generation, see that good lande whiche I sware to geue vnto your fathers:	‘Not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land that I swore to give to your fathers,	“No one from this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your ancestors,
36	Saue Caleb the sonne of Iephune, he shall see it, and to him wyll I geue the lande that he hath troden vpon, and to his chyldren, because he hath folowed the Lorde.	except Caleb the son of Jephunneh. He shall see it, and to him and to his children I will give the land on which he has trodden, because he has wholly followed the LORD!’	except Caleb son of Jephunneh. He will see it, and I will give him and his descendants the land he set his feet on, because he followed the LORD wholeheartedly.”
37	Also the Lorde was angry with me for your sakes, saying: Thou also shalt not go in thyther.	Even with me the LORD was angry on your account and said, ‘You also shall not go in there.	Because of you the LORD became angry with me also and said, “You shall not enter it, either.
38	But Iosuah the sonne of Nun which standeth before thee, he shal go in thyther. Encourage hym therfore: for he shall cause Israel to inherite the lande.	Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, he shall enter. Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.	But your assistant, Joshua son of Nun, will enter it. Encourage him, because he will lead Israel to inherit it.
39	Moreouer, your chyldren, which ye sayde should be a pray, and your sonnes whiche in that day had no knowledge betweene good and euyll, they shall go in thyther, and vnto them wyll I geue it, and they shall enioy it.	And as for your little ones, who you said would become a prey, and your children, who today have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there. And to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.	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.
40	But as for you, turne your face, and take your iourney into the wildernesse, euen by the way of the red sea.	But as for you, turn, and journey into the wilderness in the direction of the Red Sea.’	But as for you, turn around and set out toward the desert along the route to the Red Sea.”
41	Then ye aunswered and sayde vnto me, We haue sinned agaynst the Lord: we wyll go vp and fight, according to all that the Lorde our God commaunded vs. And when ye had gyrde on euery man his weapons of warre, ye were redie to go vp into the hyll.	“Then you answered me, ‘We have sinned against the LORD. We ourselves will go up and fight, just as the LORD our God commanded us.’ And every one of you fastened on his weapons of war and thought it easy to go up into the hill country.	Then you replied, “We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up and fight, as the LORD our God commanded us.” So every one of you put on his weapons, thinking it easy to go up into the hill country.
42	And the Lord sayd vnto me: Say vnto them, go not vp, neither fight, for I am not among you: lest ye fall before your enemies.	And the LORD said to me, ‘Say to them, Do not go up or fight, for I am not in your midst, lest you be defeated before your enemies.’	But the LORD said to me, “Tell them, ‘Do not go up and fight, because I will not be with you. You will be defeated by your enemies.’”
43	And I tolde you these thynges, & you woulde not heare, but disobayed the worde of the Lord, and went presumptuously vp into the hyll.	So I spoke to you, and you would not listen; but you rebelled against the command of the LORD and presumptuously went up into the hill country.	So I told you, but you would not listen. You rebelled against the LORD’s command and in your arrogance you marched up into the hill country.
44	And the Amorites whiche dwelt in that mountayne, came out against you, and chased you as bees vse to do, and destroyed you in Seir, euen vnto Horma.	Then the Amorites who lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you as bees do and beat you down in Seir as far as Hormah.	The Amorites who lived in those hills came out against you; they chased you like a swarm of bees and beat you down from Seir all the way to Hormah.
45	And ye came agayne, and wept before the Lorde: but the Lorde would not heare your voyce, nor hearken vnto you.	And you returned and wept before the LORD, but the LORD did not listen to your voice or give ear to you.	You came back and wept before the LORD, but he paid no attention to your weeping and turned a deaf ear to you.
46	And so ye abode in Cades a long season, according vnto the tyme that ye remayned before. That whiche was done from the tyme they departed from Cades Barnea, vnto the battayle agaynst the kynges, Sehon and Og.	So you remained at Kadesh many days, the days that you remained there.	And so you stayed in Kadesh many days—all the time you spent there.
