Deuteronomy 10

1 At that time the LORD said to me, "Cut two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.

At that time the Lord said to me, Hew for thyself two stone tables as the first, and come up to me into the mountain, and thou shalt make for thyself an ark of wood.

2 I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark."

And thou shalt write upon the tables the words which were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt put them into the ark.

3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.

So I made an ark of boards of incorruptible wood, and I hewed tables of stone like the first, and I went up to the mountain, and the two tables were in my hand.

4 He wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke to you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them to me.

And he wrote upon the tables according to the first writing the ten commandments, which the Lord spoke to you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire, and the Lord gave them to me.

5 I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are as the LORD commanded me.

And I turned and came down from the mountain, and I put the tables into the ark which I had made; and there they were, as the Lord commanded me.

6 (The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his place.

And the children of Israel departed from Beeroth of the sons of Jakim [to] Misadai: there Aaron died, and there he was buried, and Eleazar his son was priest in his stead.

7 From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.

Thence they departed to Gadgad; and from Gadgad to Etebatha, a land [wherein are] torrents of water.

8 At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.

At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand near before the Lord, to minister and bless in his name to this day.

9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD your God spoke to him.)

Therefore the Levites have no part nor inheritance among their brethren; the Lord himself [is] their inheritance, as he said to them.

10 I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights: and the LORD listened to me that time also, and the LORD would not destroy you.

And I remained in the mount forty days and forty nights: and the Lord heard me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy you.

11 The LORD said to me, "Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them."

And the Lord said to me, Go, set out before this people, and let them go in and inherit the land, which I sware to their fathers to give to them.

12 Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

And now, Israel, what does the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, and to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;

13 to keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?

to keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and his ordinances, all that I charge thee to-day, that it may be well with thee?

14 Look, to the LORD your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in it.

Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens belong to the Lord thy God, the earth and all things that are in it.

15 Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their descendants after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.

Only the Lord chose your fathers to love them, and he chose out their seed after them, [even] you, beyond all nations, as at this day.

16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.

Therefore ye shall circumcise the hardness of your heart, and ye shall not harden your neck.

17 For the LORD your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn't respect persons, nor takes reward.

For the Lord your God, he [is] God of gods, and the Lord of lords, the great, and strong, and terrible God, who does not accept persons, nor will he by any means accept a bribe:

18 He does execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the foreigner, in giving him food and clothing.

executing judgment for the stranger and orphan and widow, and he loves the stranger to give him food and raiment.

19 Therefore love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

And ye shall love the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

20 You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve him; and you shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.

Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and serve him, and shalt cleave to him, and shalt swear by his name.

21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which your eyes have seen.

He [is] thy boast, and he [is] thy God, who has wrought in the midst of thee these great and glorious things, which thine eyes have seen.

22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.

With seventy souls your fathers went down into Egypt; but the Lord thy God has made thee as the stars of heaven in multitude.
