1	These are the wordes of the couenaunt which the Lorde commaunded Moyses to make with the children of Israel in the lande of Moab, besyde the appoyntment which he made with them in Horeb.

These are the terms of the covenant the LORD commanded Moses to make with the Israelites in Moab, in addition to the covenant he had made with them at Horeb.
2	And Moyses called all Israel, & sayde vnto them: Ye haue seene all that the Lorde did before your eyes in the lande of Egypt, vnto Pharao and vnto all his seruauntes, and vnto all his lande,	And Moses summoned all Israel and said to them: “You have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and to all his land,	Moses summoned all the Israelites and said to them: Your eyes have seen all that the LORD did in Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his officials and to all his land.
3	The great temptations which thine eyes haue seene, those great miracles and wonders:	the great trials that your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders.	With your own eyes you saw those great trials, those signs and great wonders.
4	And yet the Lorde hath not geuen you an heart to perceaue, and eyes to see, and eares to heare, vnto this day.	But to this day the LORD has not given you a heart to understand or eyes to see or ears to hear.	But to this day the LORD has not given you a mind that understands or eyes that see or ears that hear.
5	And I haue led you fourtie yeres in the wildernesse: and your clothes are not waxed olde vpon you, and thy shoe is not waxed olde vpon thy foote.	I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not worn out on you, and your sandals have not worn off your feet.	Yet the LORD says, “During the forty years that I led you through the wilderness, your clothes did not wear out, nor did the sandals on your feet.
6	Ye haue eaten no bread, nor drunke wine or strong drynke: that ye myght knowe howe that I am the Lorde your God.	You have not eaten bread, and you have not drunk wine or strong drink, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.	You ate no bread and drank no wine or other fermented drink. I did this so that you might know that I am the LORD your God.”
7	And ye came vnto this place, and Sehon the kyng of Hesbon, and Og the kyng of Basan came out agaynst vs vnto battayle, and we smote them,	And when you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out against us to battle, but we defeated them.	When you reached this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out to fight against us, but we defeated them.

10	Ye stande this day euery one of you before the Lorde your God: your captaynes, your tribes, your elders, your officers, and all the men of Israel:	“You are standing today, all of you, before the LORD your God: the heads of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, all the men of Israel,	All of you are standing today in the presence of the LORD your God—your leaders and chief men, your elders and officials, and all the other men of Israel,
11	Your childre also, your wiues, and the straunger that is in thine hoast, from the hewer of thy wood, vnto the drawer of thy water:	your little ones, your wives, and the sojourner who is in your camp, from the one who chops your wood to the one who draws your water,	together with your children and your wives, and the foreigners living in your camps who chop your wood and carry your water.
12	That thou shouldest go into the couenaunt of the Lorde thy God, and into his othe which the Lorde thy God maketh with thee this day:	so that you may enter into the sworn covenant of the LORD your God, which the LORD your God is making with you today,	You are standing here in order to enter into a covenant with the LORD your God, a covenant the LORD is making with you this day and sealing with an oath,
13	For to make thee a people vnto hym selfe, and that he may be vnto thee a God, as he hath sayde vnto thee, and as he hath sworne vnto thy fathers, Abraham, Isahac, and Iacob.	that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may be your God, as he promised you, and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.	to confirm you this day as his people, that he may be your God as he promised you and as he swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
14	I make not this bonde and this othe with you only:	It is not with you alone that I am making this sworn covenant,	I am making this covenant, with its oath, not only with you
15	But both with hym that standeth here with vs this day before the Lorde our God, and also with hym that is not here with vs this day.	but with whoever is standing here with us today before the LORD our God, and with whoever is not here with us today.	who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God but also with those who are not here today.
16	For ye knowe howe we haue dwelt in the lande of Egypt, and howe we came through the myddes of the nations which ye passed by:	“You know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which you passed.	You yourselves know how we lived in Egypt and how we passed through the countries on the way here.
17	And ye haue seene their abhominations, and their idols, wood and stone, siluer and golde, which were among them.

18	Lest there be among you man or woman, kinrede or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lorde our God, to go and serue the gods of these nations: and lest there be among you some roote that beareth gall and wormewood.	Beware lest there be among you a man or woman or clan or tribe whose heart is turning away today from the LORD our God to go and serve the gods of those nations. Beware lest there be among you a root bearing poisonous and bitter fruit,	Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations; make sure there is no root among you that produces such bitter poison.
19	So that when he heareth the wordes of this othe, he blesse hym selfe in his heart, saying: I shall haue peace, I wyll walke in the meanyng of myne owne heart: to put the drunken to the thirstie.	one who, when he hears the words of this sworn covenant, blesses himself in his heart, saying, ‘I shall be safe, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart.’ This will lead to the sweeping away of moist and dry alike.	When such a person hears the words of this oath and they invoke a blessing on themselves, thinking, “I will be safe, even though I persist in going my own way,” they will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry.
20	And so the Lorde wyll not consent to be mercifull vnto hym, but then the wrath of the Lorde and his gelousie shall smoke agaynst that man: and all the curses that are written in this booke shall lyght vpon hym, and the Lorde shal do out his name from vnder heaue.	The LORD will not be willing to forgive him, but rather the anger of the LORD and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and the curses written in this book will settle upon him, and the LORD will blot out his name from under heaven.	The LORD will never be willing to forgive them; his wrath and zeal will burn against them. All the curses written in this book will fall on them, and the LORD will blot out their names from under heaven.
21	And the Lorde shall seperate hym vnto euyll, out of all the tribes of Israel, accordyng vnto all the curses of the couenaunt that are written in the booke of this lawe.	And the LORD will single him out from all the tribes of Israel for calamity, in accordance with all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law.	The LORD will single them out from all the tribes of Israel for disaster, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law.
22	So that the generatio to come of your children that shall ryse vp after you, and the straunger that shall come from a farre lande, shall say, when they see the plagues of that lande, and the diseases wherwith the Lorde hath smitten it:	And the next generation, your children who rise up after you, and the foreigner who comes from a far land, will say, when they see the afflictions of that land and the sicknesses with which the LORD has made it sick—	Your children who follow you in later generations and foreigners who come from distant lands will see the calamities that have fallen on the land and the diseases with which the LORD has afflicted it.
23	Howe all the lande is burnt vp with brimstone and salt, and that it is neither sowen, nor beareth, nor any grasse groweth therin, lyke as in the place of ye ouerthrowyng of Sodome, Gomor, Adama, and Zeboim, which the Lorde ouerthrewe in his wrath and anger.	the whole land burned out with brimstone and salt, nothing sown and nothing growing, where no plant can sprout, an overthrow like that of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger and wrath—	The whole land will be a burning waste of salt and sulfur—nothing planted, nothing sprouting, no vegetation growing on it. It will be like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, which the LORD overthrew in fierce anger.
24	Euen then shal all nations say: Wherfore hath the Lord done on this fashion vnto this lande? O howe fierse is this great wrath?	all the nations will say, ‘Why has the LORD done thus to this land? What caused the heat of this great anger?’	All the nations will ask: “Why has the LORD done this to this land? Why this fierce, burning anger?”
25	And men shall say: Because they haue forsaken the couenaunt of the Lorde God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the lande of Egypt.	Then people will say, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt,	And the answer will be: “It is because this people abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their ancestors, the covenant he made with them when he brought them out of Egypt.
26	For they went and serued straunge gods, and worshipped them, gods which they knewe not, and which had geuen them nothyng.	and went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods whom they had not known and whom he had not allotted to them.	They went off and worshiped other gods and bowed down to them, gods they did not know, gods he had not given them.
27	And the wrath of the Lorde waxed hot agaynst this lande, to bryng vpon it all the curses that are written in this booke.	Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, bringing upon it all the curses written in this book,	Therefore the LORD’s anger burned against this land, so that he brought on it all the curses written in this book.
28	And the Lorde cast them out of their lande in anger, wrath, and great indignation, and cast them into a straunge lande, as this day beareth witnesse.	and the LORD uprooted them from their land in anger and fury and great wrath, and cast them into another land, as they are this day.’	In furious anger and in great wrath the LORD uprooted them from their land and thrust them into another land, as it is now.”
29	The secretes of the Lorde our God are opened vnto vs, and to our children for euer, that we may do all the wordes of this lawe.	“The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.	The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.
