Deuteronomy 4:37-49 ▼

37 And because that he loved thy fathers he will choose in his seed after him, and he will bring thee out before him with his great strength from Egypt.

38 To drive out nations great and strong above thee, from thy face, to bring thee in to give to thee their land an inheritance as this day.

39 And know thou this day, and turn back to thy heart, that Jehovah he is God in the heavens from above and upon the earth underneath: and none yet.

40 And watch thou his laws and his commands which I am commanding thee this day, that it shall be good to thee and to thy sons after thee, and that thou shalt prolong the days upon the land that Jehovah thy God gave to thee, all the days.

41 Then Moses will separate three cities in the other side of Jordan from the rising of the sun;

42 For the slayer to flee there when he shall slay his friend without knowledge; and he hated him not yesterday the third day; and he fled to one of these cities and he lived:

43 Bezer in the desert, in the land of the plain to the Reubenites, and Ramoth in Gilead to the Gadites, and Golan in Bashan, to the Manassites.

44 And this the instruction which Moses set before the sons of Israel.

45 These the testimonies and the laws and the judgments which Moses spake to the sons of Israel in their going forth out of Egypt,

46 In the other side of Jordan, in the valley over against the House of Peor, in the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who will dwell in Heshbon, whom Moses smote, and the sons of Israel, in their going out of Egypt.

47 And they shall possess their land and the land of Og, king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, which in the other side of Jordan from the rising of the sun;

48 From Aroer, which is upon the lip of the torrent Arnon, and even to mount Sion (it is Hermon.)

49 And all the desert the other side of Jordan, from the sun-rising and even to the sea, the desert under the springs of Pisgah.
