WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.960 Chapter 31, And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel, and he said unto 00:06.960 --> 00:11.800 them, I am an hundred and twenty years old this day. 00:12.640 --> 00:15.500 I can no more go out and come in. 00:16.580 --> 00:21.580 Also the Lord hath said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan. 00:23.060 --> 00:29.620 The Lord thy God, He will go over before thee, and He will destroy these nations 00:29.620 --> 00:32.560 from before thee, and thou shalt possess them. 00:33.400 --> 00:38.160 And Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as the Lord hath said. 00:38.760 --> 00:45.540 And the Lord shall do unto them as He did to Sihon, and to Og, kings of the 00:45.540 --> 00:48.840 Amorites, and unto the land of them whom He destroyed. 00:49.480 --> 00:54.600 And the Lord shall give them up before your face, that ye may do unto them 00:54.600 --> 00:58.520 according unto all the commandments which I have commanded you. 00:59.520 --> 01:02.040 Be strong, and of a good courage. 01:02.520 --> 01:05.080 Fear not, nor be afraid of them. 01:05.860 --> 01:09.680 For the Lord thy God, He it is that doth go with thee. 01:10.200 --> 01:13.840 He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. 01:14.220 --> 01:18.460 And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, 01:18.820 --> 01:21.660 Be strong, and of a good courage. 01:22.160 --> 01:27.160 For thou must go with this people unto the land which the Lord hath sworn unto their 01:27.160 --> 01:31.400 fathers to give them, and thou shalt cause them to inherit it. 01:32.060 --> 01:35.660 And the Lord, He it is that doth go before thee. 01:36.100 --> 01:37.320 He will be with thee. 01:37.940 --> 01:41.060 He will not fail thee, neither forsake thee. 01:42.120 --> 01:44.680 Fear not, neither be dismayed. 01:45.020 --> 01:49.200 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests, the sons of Levi, 01:49.440 --> 01:53.540 which bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and unto all the elders of Israel. 01:54.160 --> 01:58.780 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, 01:59.540 --> 02:05.700 in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles, when all 02:05.700 --> 02:10.120 Israel is come to appear before the Lord thy God in the place which He shall 02:10.120 --> 02:15.200 choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing. 02:16.000 --> 02:21.900 Gather the people together, men and women and children, and thy stranger that is 02:21.900 --> 02:28.100 within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the Lord 02:28.100 --> 02:34.000 your God, and observe to do all the words of this law, and that their children, 02:34.560 --> 02:40.240 which have not known anything, may hear and learn to fear the Lord your 02:40.240 --> 02:45.840 God, as long as ye live in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it. 02:46.040 --> 02:51.080 And the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die. 02:51.780 --> 02:55.580 Call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, 02:56.140 --> 02:57.740 that I may give him a charge. 02:58.200 --> 03:02.400 And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the tabernacle of the 03:02.400 --> 03:02.880 congregation. 03:03.680 --> 03:07.880 And the Lord appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of cloud, and the pillar of cloud 03:07.880 --> 03:09.660 stood over the door of the tabernacle. 03:10.200 --> 03:14.980 And the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, 03:15.480 --> 03:19.620 and this people will rise up, and go a-whoring after the gods of the strangers 03:19.620 --> 03:25.220 of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my 03:25.220 --> 03:26.940 covenant which I have made with them. 03:27.440 --> 03:32.740 Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, 03:33.340 --> 03:39.180 and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils 03:39.180 --> 03:43.000 and troubles shall befall them, so that they will say in that day, 03:43.000 --> 03:47.340 Are not these evils come upon us because our God is not among us? 03:48.380 --> 03:53.200 And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have 03:53.200 --> 03:56.460 wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods. 03:57.440 --> 04:02.940 Now therefore, write ye this song for you, and teach it to the children of Israel. 04:03.640 --> 04:07.780 Put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children 04:07.780 --> 04:08.400 of Israel. 04:09.080 --> 04:12.800 For when I shall have brought them into the land, which I swear unto their 04:12.800 --> 04:17.540 fathers, that floweth with milk and honey, and they shall have eaten and filled 04:17.540 --> 04:23.100 themselves in wax and fat, then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, 04:23.520 --> 04:25.940 and provoke me, and break my covenant. 04:26.720 --> 04:30.900 And it shall come to pass when many evils and troubles are befallen them, 04:31.400 --> 04:36.540 that this song shall testify against them as a witness, for it shall not be 04:36.540 --> 04:38.460 forgotten out of the mouths of their seed. 04:38.460 --> 04:43.740 For I know their imagination, which they go about, even now before I have brought 04:43.740 --> 04:45.520 them into the land, which I swear. 04:46.240 --> 04:50.560 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel. 04:50.940 --> 04:55.780 And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good 04:55.780 --> 05:00.500 courage, for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land, which I swear 05:00.500 --> 05:03.120 unto them, and I will be with thee. 05:03.440 --> 05:07.640 And it came to pass when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a 05:07.640 --> 05:11.260 book until they were finished, that Moses commanded the Levites, 05:11.360 --> 05:15.840 which bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying, Take this book of the law, 05:16.520 --> 05:20.560 and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, 05:21.520 --> 05:24.900 that it may be there for a witness against thee. 05:25.580 --> 05:28.560 For I know thy rebellion and thy stiff neck. 05:29.600 --> 05:35.700 Behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the 05:35.700 --> 05:38.720 Lord, and how much more after my death. 05:39.840 --> 05:44.740 Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may 05:44.740 --> 05:49.180 speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record 05:49.180 --> 05:49.840 against them. 05:50.900 --> 05:56.520 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside 05:56.520 --> 06:01.380 from the way which I have commanded you, and evil will befall you in the latter 06:01.380 --> 06:08.240 days, because ye will do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger 06:08.240 --> 06:10.140 through the work of your hands. 06:10.540 --> 06:14.660 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this 06:14.660 --> 06:16.300 song, until they were ended.
