00:01.660 --> 00:03.100
Deuteronomy chapter 1.

00:04.020 --> 00:07.720
These be the words which Moses spake unto
all Israel on this side Jordan,

00:08.020 --> 00:11.720
in the wilderness, in the plain over
against the Red Sea, between Paran,

00:11.880 --> 00:15.180
and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth,
and Dizahab.

00:15.420 --> 00:19.160
There are eleven days journey from Horeb
by the way of Mount Seir unto Kadesh

00:19.160 --> 00:19.560
Barnea.

00:20.500 --> 00:24.300
And it came to pass on the fortieth year,
in the eleventh month, on the first day of

00:24.300 --> 00:28.360
the month, that Moses spake unto the
children of Israel, according to all that

00:28.360 --> 00:30.660
the Lord had given him in commandment unto
them.

00:31.200 --> 00:35.000
After he had slain Sihon king of the
Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon,

00:35.520 --> 00:39.240
and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at
Ashteroth in Edrei.

00:39.980 --> 00:44.720
On this side of Jordan, in the land of
Moab, began Moses to declare this law,

00:44.860 --> 00:50.560
saying, The Lord our God spake unto us in
Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough

00:50.560 --> 00:51.260
in this mount.

00:51.980 --> 00:56.040
Turn you, and take your journey,
and go to the mount of the Amorites,

00:56.660 --> 01:02.100
and unto all the places nigh thereunto,
in the plain, in the hills, and in the

01:02.100 --> 01:07.160
vale, and in the south, and by the
seaside, to the land of the Canaanites,

01:07.360 --> 01:11.040
and unto Lebanon, unto the great river,
the river Euphrates.

01:12.180 --> 01:15.040
Behold, I have set the land before you.

01:15.600 --> 01:20.520
Go in, and possess the land, which the
Lord swear unto your fathers, Abraham,

01:21.100 --> 01:24.800
Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them,
and to their seed after them.

01:25.740 --> 01:30.480
And I spake unto you at that time,
saying, I am not able to bear you myself

01:30.480 --> 01:30.860
alone.

01:31.340 --> 01:33.880
The Lord your God hath multiplied you.

01:34.200 --> 01:38.460
And behold, ye are this day as the stars
of heaven for multitude.

01:39.440 --> 01:44.600
The Lord God of your fathers make you a
thousand times so many more as ye are,

01:44.760 --> 01:47.260
and bless you as he hath promised you.

01:48.060 --> 01:52.620
How can I myself alone bear your
cumbrance, and your burden, and your

01:52.620 --> 01:53.100
strife?

01:54.020 --> 01:59.080
Take ye wise men, and understanding,
and known among your tribes, and I will

01:59.080 --> 02:00.320
make them rulers over you.

02:01.260 --> 02:05.960
And ye answered me, and said, The thing
which thou hast spoken is good for us to

02:05.960 --> 02:06.200
do.

02:07.060 --> 02:12.100
So I took the chief of your tribes,
wise men, and known, and made them heads

02:12.100 --> 02:16.960
over you, captains over thousands,
and captains over hundreds, and captains

02:16.960 --> 02:21.040
over fifties, and captains over tens,
and officers among your tribes.

02:22.060 --> 02:26.700
And I charged your judges at that time,
saying, Hear the causes between your

02:26.700 --> 02:31.360
brethren, and judge righteously between
every man and his brother, and the

02:31.360 --> 02:32.520
stranger that is with him.

02:33.280 --> 02:38.660
Ye shall not respect persons in judgment,
but ye shall hear the small as well as the

02:38.660 --> 02:39.000
great.

02:39.300 --> 02:44.960
Ye shall not be afraid of the face of man,
for the judgment is God's, and the cause

02:44.960 --> 02:49.200
that is too hard for you, bring it unto
me, and I will hear it.

02:49.840 --> 02:54.020
And I commanded you at that time all the
things which ye should do.

02:54.980 --> 02:59.440
And when we departed from Horeb,
we went through all that great and

02:59.440 --> 03:03.760
terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the
way of the mountain of the Amorites,

03:04.140 --> 03:06.200
as the Lord our God commanded us.

03:06.200 --> 03:11.920
And we came to Cagisbarnia, and I said
unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of

03:11.920 --> 03:15.040
the Amorites, which the Lord our God doth
give unto us.

03:15.740 --> 03:19.140
Behold, the Lord thy God hath set the land
before thee.

03:19.620 --> 03:24.360
Go up, and possess it, as the Lord God of
thy fathers hath said unto thee.

03:24.840 --> 03:26.940
Fear not, neither be discouraged.

03:28.400 --> 03:33.860
And ye came near unto me, every one of
you, and said, We will send men before us,

03:34.160 --> 03:38.800
and they shall search us out the land,
and bring us word again, by what way we

03:38.800 --> 03:41.940
must go up, and into what cities we shall
come.

03:42.520 --> 03:44.260
And the saying pleased me well.

03:44.760 --> 03:49.360
And I took twelve men of you, one of a
tribe, and they turned and went up into

03:49.360 --> 03:53.880
the mountain, and came unto the valley of
Eshcol, and searched it out.

03:54.480 --> 03:58.700
And they took of the fruit of the land,
in their hands, and brought it down unto

03:58.700 --> 04:02.820
us, and brought us word again,
and said, It is a good land, which the

04:02.820 --> 04:04.400
Lord our God doth give us.

04:05.540 --> 04:09.900
Notwithstanding, ye would not go up,
but rebelled against the commandment of

04:09.900 --> 04:10.740
the Lord your God.

04:11.260 --> 04:15.140
And ye murmured in your tents,
and said, Because the Lord hated us,

04:15.840 --> 04:20.560
he hath brought us forth out of the land
of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of

04:20.560 --> 04:22.340
the Amorites, to destroy us.

04:23.120 --> 04:24.180
Whither shall we go up?

04:24.800 --> 04:29.200
Our brethren have discouraged our heart,
saying, The people is greater and taller

04:29.200 --> 04:29.660
than we.

04:30.100 --> 04:35.320
The cities are great and walled up to
heaven, and moreover we have seen the sons

04:35.320 --> 04:36.340
of the Anakims there.

04:37.280 --> 04:41.480
Then I said unto you, Dread not,
neither be afraid of them.

04:42.040 --> 04:46.840
The Lord your God which goeth before you,
he shall fight for you, according to all

04:46.840 --> 04:52.100
that he did for you in Egypt, before your
eyes, and in the wilderness, where thou

04:52.100 --> 04:56.560
hast seen how that the Lord thy God bare
thee, as a man doth bear his son,

04:57.120 --> 05:00.240
in all the way that ye went, until ye came
into this place.

05:01.240 --> 05:05.900
Yet in this thing ye did not believe the
Lord your God, who went in the way before

05:05.900 --> 05:10.640
you, to search you out a place to pitch
your tents in, in fire by night,

05:10.860 --> 05:15.220
to show you by what way ye should go,
and in a cloud by day.

05:16.320 --> 05:20.940
And the Lord heard the voice of your
words, and was wroth, and swear,

05:21.120 --> 05:26.840
saying, Surely thou shalt not one of these
men of this evil generation see that good

05:26.840 --> 05:32.640
land, which I swear to give unto your
fathers, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh.

05:32.980 --> 05:37.500
He shall see it, and to him will I give
the land that he hath trodden upon,

05:37.880 --> 05:41.260
and to his children, because he hath
wholly followed the Lord.

05:41.940 --> 05:47.480
Also the Lord was angry with me for your
sake, saying, Thou also shalt not go in

05:47.480 --> 05:47.740
thither.

05:48.340 --> 05:53.020
But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth
before thee, he shall go in thither.

05:53.460 --> 05:56.980
Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel
to inherit it.

05:57.720 --> 06:02.280
Moreover, your little ones, which he said
should be a prey, and your children,

06:02.740 --> 06:06.860
which in that day had no knowledge between
good and evil, they shall go in thither,

06:07.340 --> 06:10.720
and unto them will I give it, and they
shall possess it.

06:11.000 --> 06:15.580
But as for you, turn you, and take your
journey into the wilderness by the way of

06:15.580 --> 06:16.160
the Red Sea.

06:17.120 --> 06:21.660
Then ye answered and said unto me,
We have sinned against the Lord.

06:22.380 --> 06:26.900
We will go up and fight, according to all
that the Lord our God commanded us.

06:27.700 --> 06:32.960
And when ye had girded on every man his
weapons of war, ye were ready to go up

06:32.960 --> 06:33.580
into the hill.

06:34.320 --> 06:41.820
And the Lord said unto me, Say unto them,
Go not up, neither fight, for I am not

06:41.820 --> 06:44.740
among you, lest ye be smitten before your
enemies.

06:45.640 --> 06:50.080
So I spake unto you, and ye would not
hear, but rebelled against the commandment

06:50.080 --> 06:53.420
of the Lord, and went presumptuously up
into the hill.

06:54.040 --> 06:57.520
And the Amorites, which dwelt in that
mountain, came out against you,

06:57.980 --> 07:03.760
and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed
you in seer, even unto Horma.

07:04.200 --> 07:08.660
And ye returned and wept before the Lord,
but the Lord would not hearken to your

07:08.660 --> 07:10.660
voice, nor give ear unto you.

07:11.420 --> 07:17.220
So ye abode in Kadesh many days,
according unto the days that ye abode there.
