Deuteronomy 29 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Deu 29:1These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moshe to make with the children of Yisra'el in the land of Mo'av, besides the covenant which he made with them in Horev.
Deu 29:2Moshe called to all Yisra'el, and said to them, You have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Mitzrayim to Par`oh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;
Deu 29:3the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders:
Deu 29:4but the LORD has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.
Deu 29:5I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes have not grown old on you, and your shoe has not grown old on your foot.
Deu 29:6You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink; that you may know that I am the LORD your God.
Deu 29:7When you came to this place, Sichon the king of Heshbon, and `Og the king of Bashan, came out against us to battle, and we struck them:
Deu 29:8and we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Re'uveni, and to the Gadi, and to the half-tribe of the Manashshi.
Deu 29:9Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.
Deu 29:10You stand this day all of you before the LORD your God; your heads, your tribes, your Zakenim, and your officers, even all the men of Yisra'el,
Deu 29:11your little ones, your wives, and your foreigner who is in the midst of your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water;
Deu 29:12that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, and into his oath, which the LORD your God makes with you this day;
Deu 29:13that he may establish you this day to himself for a people, and that he may be to you a God, as he spoke to you, and as he swore to your fathers, to Avraham, to Yitzchak, and to Ya`akov.
Deu 29:14Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,
Deu 29:15but with him who stands here with us this day before the LORD our God, and also with him who is not here with us this day
Deu 29:16(for you know how we lived in the land of Mitzrayim, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which you passed;
Deu 29:17and you have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them);
Deu 29:18lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turns away this day from the LORD our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that bears gall and wormwood;
Deu 29:19and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have shalom, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to destroy the moist with the dry.
Deu 29:20The LORD will not pardon him, but then the anger of the LORD and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and all the curse that is written in this book shall lie on him, and the LORD will blot out his name from under the sky.
Deu 29:21The LORD will set him apart to evil out of all the tribes of Yisra'el, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.
Deu 29:22The generation to come, your children who shall rise up after you, and the foreigner who shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses with which the LORD has made it sick;
Deu 29:23and that the whole land of it is sulfur, and salt, and a burning, that it is not sown, nor bears, nor any grass grows therein, like the overthrow of Sedom and `Amorah, Admah and Tzevoyim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:
Deu 29:24even all the nations shall say, Why has the LORD done thus to this land? what means the heat of this great anger?
Deu 29:25Then men shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Mitzrayim,
Deu 29:26and went and served other gods, and worshiped them, gods that they didn't know, and that he had not given to them:
Deu 29:27therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring on it all the curse that is written in this book;
Deu 29:28and the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as at this day.
Deu 29:29The 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.
