Deuteronomy 29 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

The Covenant in Moab

Deu 29:1These are the words of the covenant that Jehovah commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant that he made with them in Horeb.

Deu 29:2

Deu 29:2And Moses called to all Israel, and said unto them, Ye have seen all that Jehovah did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his bondmen, and to all his land:

Deu 29:3

Deu 29:3the great trials that thine eyes have seen, those great signs and wonders.

Deu 29:4

Deu 29:4But Jehovah hath not given you a heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.

Deu 29:5

Deu 29:5And I have led you forty years in the wilderness; your clothes are not grown old upon you, and thy sandal is not grown old upon thy foot;

Deu 29:6

Deu 29:6ye have not eaten bread, neither have ye drunk wine or strong drink, that ye might know that I am Jehovah your God.

Deu 29:7

Deu 29:7And ye came to this place; and Sihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out against us for battle, and we smote them.

Deu 29:8

Deu 29:8And we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half tribe of the Manassites.

Deu 29:9

Deu 29:9Ye shall keep then the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do.

Deu 29:10

Deu 29:10Ye stand this day all of you before Jehovah your God: your chiefs of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, all the men of Israel,

Deu 29:11

Deu 29:11your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger that is in thy camp, as well the hewer of thy wood as the drawer of thy water;

Deu 29:12

Deu 29:12that thou mayest enter into the covenant of Jehovah thy God, and into his oath, which Jehovah thy God maketh with thee this day;

Deu 29:13

Deu 29:13that he may establish thee this day for a people unto himself, and that he may be to thee a God, as he hath said unto thee, and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

Deu 29:14

Deu 29:14Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,

Deu 29:15

Deu 29:15but with him that standeth here with us this day before Jehovah our God, and with him that is not here with us this day

Deu 29:16

Deu 29:16(for ye know how we dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the nations which ye passed;

Deu 29:17

Deu 29:17and ye have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them);

Deu 29:18

Deu 29:18lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from Jehovah our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood,

Deu 29:19

Deu 29:19and it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to sweep away the drunken with the thirsty.

Deu 29:20

Deu 29:20Jehovah will not pardon him, but the anger of Jehovah and his jealousy will then smoke against that man, and all the curse shall be upon him that is written in this book; and Jehovah will blot out his name from under the heavens;

Deu 29:21

Deu 29:21and Jehovah will separate him for mischief out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.

Deu 29:22

Deu 29:22And the generation to come, your children who shall rise up after you, and the foreigner that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and its sicknesses wherewith Jehovah hath visited it,

Deu 29:23

Deu 29:23that the whole ground thereof is brimstone and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, and no grass groweth in it, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger and in his fury:

Deu 29:24

Deu 29:24even all nations shall say, Why has Jehovah done thus to this land? whence the heat of this great anger?

Deu 29:25

Deu 29:25And men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of Jehovah the God of their fathers, which he had made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt;

Deu 29:26

Deu 29:26and they went and served other gods, and bowed down to them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not assigned to them.

Deu 29:27

Deu 29:27And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curse that is written in this book;

Deu 29:28

Deu 29:28and Jehovah rooted them out of their land in anger, and in fury, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as it appears this day.

Deu 29:29

Deu 29:29The hidden things belong to Jehovah our God; but the revealed ones are ours and our children's for ever, to do all the words of this law.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
