Unchecked Copy BoxNum 1:19 - as the LORD commanded Moses. And so he counted them in the Desert of Sinai:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 1:48 - The LORD had said to Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 1:54 - The Israelites did all this just as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 2:1 - The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 2:33 - The Levites, however, were not counted along with the other Israelites, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 2:34 - So the Israelites did everything the LORD commanded Moses; that is the way they encamped under their standards, and that is the way they set out, each of them with their clan and family.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:1 - This is the account of the family of Aaron and Moses at the time the LORD spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:5 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:11 - The LORD also said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:13 - for all the firstborn are mine. When I struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, I set apart for myself every firstborn in Israel, whether human or animal. They are to be mine. I am the LORD.”

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:16 - So Moses counted them, as he was commanded by the word of the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:44 - The LORD also said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 3:45 - “Take the Levites in place of all the firstborn of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of their livestock. The Levites are to be mine. I am the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 4:21 - The LORD said to Moses,

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 5:4 - The Israelites did so; they sent them outside the camp. They did just as the LORD had instructed Moses.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:1 - The LORD said to Moses,

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:23 - “Tell Aaron and his sons, ‘This is how you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:25 - the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 6:26 - the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” '
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 7:4 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 7:11 - For the LORD had said to Moses, “Each day one leader is to bring his offering for the dedication of the altar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:3 - Aaron did so; he set up the lamps so that they faced forward on the lampstand, just as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:4 - This is how the lampstand was made: It was made of hammered gold—from its base to its blossoms. The lampstand was made exactly like the pattern the LORD had shown Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:5 - The LORD said to Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:20 - Moses, Aaron and the whole Israelite community did with the Levites just as the LORD commanded Moses.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 8:23 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:1 - The LORD spoke to Moses in the Desert of Sinai in the first month of the second year after they came out of Egypt. He said,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:5 - and they did so in the Desert of Sinai at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:8 - Moses answered them, “Wait until I find out what the LORD commands concerning you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:9 - Then the LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:1 - The LORD said to Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:10 - Also at your times of rejoicing—your appointed festivals and New Moon feasts—you are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, and they will be a memorial for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:29 - Now Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place about which the LORD said, ‘I will give it to you.' Come with us and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:32 - If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:1 - Now the people complained about their hardships in the hearing of the LORD, and when he heard them his anger was aroused. Then fire from the LORD burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:10 - Moses heard the people of every family wailing at the entrance to their tents. The LORD became exceedingly angry, and Moses was troubled.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:16 - The LORD said to Moses: “Bring me seventy of Israel's elders who are known to you as leaders and officials among the people. Have them come to the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:18 - “Tell the people: ‘Consecrate yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, when you will eat meat. The LORD heard you when you wailed, “If only we had meat to eat! We were better off in Egypt!” Now the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat it.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:23 - The LORD answered Moses, “Is the LORD's arm too short? Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:25 - Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke with him, and he took some of the power of the Spirit that was on him and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied—but did not do so again.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:29 - But Moses replied, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD's people were prophets and that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:33 - But while the meat was still between their teeth and before it could be consumed, the anger of the LORD burned against the people, and he struck them with a severe plague.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:2 - “Has the LORD spoken only through Moses?” they asked. “Hasn't he also spoken through us?” And the LORD heard this.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:4 - At once the LORD said to Moses, Aaron and Miriam, “Come out to the tent of meeting, all three of you.” So the three of them went out.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:5 - Then the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud; he stood at the entrance to the tent and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When the two of them stepped forward,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:14 - The LORD replied to Moses, “If her father had spit in her face, would she not have been in disgrace for seven days? Confine her outside the camp for seven days; after that she can be brought back.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 13:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:3 - Why is the LORD bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn't it be better for us to go back to Egypt?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:8 - If the LORD is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and will give it to us.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:9 - Only do not rebel against the LORD. And do not be afraid of the people of the land, because we will devour them. Their protection is gone, but the LORD is with us. Do not be afraid of them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:11 - The LORD said to Moses, “How long will these people treat me with contempt? How long will they refuse to believe in me, in spite of all the signs I have performed among them?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:14 - And they will tell the inhabitants of this land about it. They have already heard that you, LORD, are with these people and that you, LORD, have been seen face to face, that your cloud stays over them, and that you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:18 - ‘The LORD is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.'
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:20 - The LORD replied, “I have forgiven them, as you asked.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:26 - The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:28 - So tell them, ‘As surely as I live, declares the LORD, I will do to you the very thing I heard you say:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:35 - I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will surely do these things to this whole wicked community, which has banded together against me. They will meet their end in this wilderness; here they will die.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:40 - Early the next morning they set out for the highest point in the hill country, saying, “Now we are ready to go up to the land the LORD promised. Surely we have sinned!”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:42 - Do not go up, because the LORD is not with you. You will be defeated by your enemies,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:43 - for the Amalekites and the Canaanites will face you there. Because you have turned away from the LORD, he will not be with you and you will fall by the sword.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:17 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:22 - “ ‘Now if you as a community unintentionally fail to keep any of these commands the LORD gave Moses—
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:23 - any of the LORD's commands to you through him, from the day the LORD gave them and continuing through the generations to come—
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:35 - Then the LORD said to Moses, “The man must die. The whole assembly must stone him outside the camp.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:36 - So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:37 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:41 - I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God. I am the LORD your God.' ”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:3 - They came as a group to oppose Moses and Aaron and said to them, “You have gone too far! The whole community is holy, every one of them, and the LORD is with them. Why then do you set yourselves above the LORD's assembly?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:7 - and tomorrow put burning coals and incense in them before the LORD. The man the LORD chooses will be the one who is holy. You Levites have gone too far!”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:20 - The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:23 - Then the LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:28 - Then Moses said, “This is how you will know that the LORD has sent me to do all these things and that it was not my idea:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:29 - If these men die a natural death and suffer the fate of all mankind, then the LORD has not sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:30 - But if the LORD brings about something totally new, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them, with everything that belongs to them, and they go down alive into the realm of the dead, then you will know that these men have treated the LORD with contempt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:36 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:40 - as the LORD directed him through Moses. This was to remind the Israelites that no one except a descendant of Aaron should come to burn incense before the LORD, or he would become like Korah and his followers.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:44 - and the LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:10 - The LORD said to Moses, “Put back Aaron's staff in front of the ark of the covenant law, to be kept as a sign to the rebellious. This will put an end to their grumbling against me, so that they will not die.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:11 - Moses did just as the LORD commanded him.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 18:1 - The LORD said to Aaron, “You, your sons and your family are to bear the responsibility for offenses connected with the sanctuary, and you and your sons alone are to bear the responsibility for offenses connected with the priesthood.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 18:8 - Then the LORD said to Aaron, “I myself have put you in charge of the offerings presented to me; all the holy offerings the Israelites give me I give to you and your sons as your portion, your perpetual share.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 18:20 - The LORD said to Aaron, “You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any share among them; I am your share and your inheritance among the Israelites.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 18:25 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 19:1 - The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 19:2 - “This is a requirement of the law that the LORD has commanded: Tell the Israelites to bring you a red heifer without defect or blemish and that has never been under a yoke.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:7 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:9 - So Moses took the staff from the LORD's presence, just as he commanded him.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:12 - But the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:16 - but when we cried out to the LORD, he heard our cry and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt. “Now we are here at Kadesh, a town on the edge of your territory.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:23 - At Mount Hor, near the border of Edom, the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 20:27 - Moses did as the LORD commanded: They went up Mount Hor in the sight of the whole community.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 21:3 - The LORD listened to Israel's plea and gave the Canaanites over to them. They completely destroyed them and their towns; so the place was named Hormah.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 21:6 - Then the LORD sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 21:8 - The LORD said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 21:16 - From there they continued on to Beer, the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people together and I will give them water.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 21:34 - The LORD said to Moses, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 22:8 - “Spend the night here,” Balaam said to them, “and I will report back to you with the answer the LORD gives me.” So the Moabite officials stayed with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 22:19 - Now spend the night here so that I can find out what else the LORD will tell me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 23:8 - How can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce those whom the LORD has not denounced?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 23:17 - So he went to him and found him standing beside his offering, with the Moabite officials. Balak asked him, “What did the LORD say?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 23:21 - “No misfortune is seen in Jacob, no misery observed[fn] in Israel. The LORD their God is with them; the shout of the King is among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 24:6 - “Like valleys they spread out, like gardens beside a river, like aloes planted by the LORD, like cedars beside the waters.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 24:11 - Now leave at once and go home! I said I would reward you handsomely, but the LORD has kept you from being rewarded.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 25:3 - So Israel yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor. And the LORD's anger burned against them.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 25:4 - The LORD said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of these people, kill them and expose them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that the LORD's fierce anger may turn away from Israel.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 25:10 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 25:16 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 26:1 - After the plague the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron, the priest,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 26:4 - “Take a census of the men twenty years old or more, as the LORD commanded Moses.” These were the Israelites who came out of Egypt:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 26:52 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 26:65 - For the LORD had told those Israelites they would surely die in the wilderness, and not one of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:6 - and the LORD said to him,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:11 - If his father had no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan, that he may possess it. This is to have the force of law for the Israelites, as the LORD commanded Moses.' ”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:12 - Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go up this mountain in the Abarim Range and see the land I have given the Israelites.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:16 - “May the LORD, the God who gives breath to all living things, appoint someone over this community
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:18 - So the LORD said to Moses, “Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit of leadership,[fn] and lay your hand on him.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:22 - Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole assembly.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 27:23 - Then he laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD instructed through Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 28:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 29:40 - Moses told the Israelites all that the LORD commanded him.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 30:1 - Moses said to the heads of the tribes of Israel: “This is what the LORD commands:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 30:5 - But if her father forbids her when he hears about it, none of her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand; the LORD will release her because her father has forbidden her.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 30:8 - But if her husband forbids her when he hears about it, he nullifies the vow that obligates her or the rash promise by which she obligates herself, and the LORD will release her.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 30:12 - But if her husband nullifies them when he hears about them, then none of the vows or pledges that came from her lips will stand. Her husband has nullified them, and the LORD will release her.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 30:16 - These are the regulations the LORD gave Moses concerning relationships between a man and his wife, and between a father and his young daughter still living at home.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:1 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:7 - They fought against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses, and killed every man.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:21 - Then Eleazar the priest said to the soldiers who had gone into battle, “This is what is required by the law that the LORD gave Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:25 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:31 - So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:41 - Moses gave the tribute to Eleazar the priest as the LORD's part, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 31:47 - From the Israelites' half, Moses selected one out of every fifty people and animals, as the LORD commanded him, and gave them to the Levites, who were responsible for the care of the LORD's tabernacle.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:4 - the land the LORD subdued before the people of Israel—are suitable for livestock, and your servants have livestock.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:7 - Why do you discourage the Israelites from crossing over into the land the LORD has given them?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:9 - After they went up to the Valley of Eshkol and viewed the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land the LORD had given them.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:10 - The LORD's anger was aroused that day and he swore this oath:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:13 - The LORD's anger burned against Israel and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation of those who had done evil in his sight was gone.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:25 - The Gadites and Reubenites said to Moses, “We your servants will do as our lord commands.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:27 - But your servants, every man who is armed for battle, will cross over to fight before the LORD, just as our lord says.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 32:31 - The Gadites and Reubenites answered, “Your servants will do what the LORD has said.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 33:4 - who were burying all their firstborn, whom the LORD had struck down among them; for the LORD had brought judgment on their gods.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 33:50 - On the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho the LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 34:1 - The LORD said to Moses,

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 34:16 - The LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 34:29 - These are the men the LORD commanded to assign the inheritance to the Israelites in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 35:1 - On the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, the LORD said to Moses,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 35:9 - Then the LORD said to Moses:
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 35:34 - Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell, for I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.' ”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 36:2 - They said, “When the LORD commanded my lord to give the land as an inheritance to the Israelites by lot, he ordered you to give the inheritance of our brother Zelophehad to his daughters.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 36:6 - This is what the LORD commands for Zelophehad's daughters: They may marry anyone they please as long as they marry within their father's tribal clan.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 36:10 - So Zelophehad's daughters did as the LORD commanded Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 36:13 - These are the commands and regulations the LORD gave through Moses to the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:3 - In the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, Moses proclaimed to the Israelites all that the LORD had commanded him concerning them.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:6 - The LORD our God said to us at Horeb, “You have stayed long enough at this mountain.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:10 - The LORD your God has increased your numbers so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:11 - May the LORD, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised!
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:19 - Then, as the LORD our God commanded us, we set out from Horeb and went toward the hill country of the Amorites through all that vast and dreadful wilderness that you have seen, and so we reached Kadesh Barnea.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:20 - Then I said to you, “You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving us.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:21 - See, the LORD your God has given you the land. Go up and take possession of it as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, told you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:25 - Taking with them some of the fruit of the land, they brought it down to us and reported, “It is a good land that the LORD our God is giving us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:30 - The LORD your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:31 - and in the wilderness. There you saw how the LORD your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:34 - When the LORD heard what you said, he was angry and solemnly swore:
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:37 - Because of you the LORD became angry with me also and said, “You shall not enter it, either.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:41 - Then you replied, “We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up and fight, as the LORD our God commanded us.” So every one of you put on his weapons, thinking it easy to go up into the hill country.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:42 - But the LORD said to me, “Tell them, ‘Do not go up and fight, because I will not be with you. You will be defeated by your enemies.' ”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:45 - You came back and wept before the LORD, but he paid no attention to your weeping and turned a deaf ear to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:1 - Then we turned back and set out toward the wilderness along the route to the Red Sea,[fn] as the LORD had directed me. For a long time we made our way around the hill country of Seir.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:2 - Then the LORD said to me,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:7 - The LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has watched over your journey through this vast wilderness. These forty years the LORD your God has been with you, and you have not lacked anything.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:9 - Then the LORD said to me, “Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any part of their land. I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot as a possession.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:12 - Horites used to live in Seir, but the descendants of Esau drove them out. They destroyed the Horites from before them and settled in their place, just as Israel did in the land the LORD gave them as their possession.)
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:17 - the LORD said to me,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:21 - They were a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites. The LORD destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:29 - as the descendants of Esau, who live in Seir, and the Moabites, who live in Ar, did for us—until we cross the Jordan into the land the LORD our God is giving us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:30 - But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass through. For the LORD your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as he has now done.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:31 - The LORD said to me, “See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:33 - the LORD our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, together with his sons and his whole army.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:36 - From Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the gorge, even as far as Gilead, not one town was too strong for us. The LORD our God gave us all of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:37 - But in accordance with the command of the LORD our God, you did not encroach on any of the land of the Ammonites, neither the land along the course of the Jabbok nor that around the towns in the hills.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:2 - The LORD said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:3 - So the LORD our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:18 - I commanded you at that time: “The LORD your God has given you this land to take possession of it. But all your able-bodied men, armed for battle, must cross over ahead of the other Israelites.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:20 - until the LORD gives rest to your fellow Israelites as he has to you, and they too have taken over the land that the LORD your God is giving them across the Jordan. After that, each of you may go back to the possession I have given you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:21 - At that time I commanded Joshua: “You have seen with your own eyes all that the LORD your God has done to these two kings. The LORD will do the same to all the kingdoms over there where you are going.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:22 - Do not be afraid of them; the LORD your God himself will fight for you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:26 - But because of you the LORD was angry with me and would not listen to me. “That is enough,” the LORD said. “Do not speak to me anymore about this matter.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:1 - Now, Israel, hear the decrees and laws I am about to teach you. Follow them so that you may live and may go in and take possession of the land the LORD, the God of your ancestors, is giving you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:3 - You saw with your own eyes what the LORD did at Baal Peor. The LORD your God destroyed from among you everyone who followed the Baal of Peor,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:5 - See, I have taught you decrees and laws as the LORD my God commanded me, so that you may follow them in the land you are entering to take possession of it.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:7 - What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we pray to him?
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:10 - Remember the day you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, when he said to me, “Assemble the people before me to hear my words so that they may learn to revere me as long as they live in the land and may teach them to their children.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:12 - Then the LORD spoke to you out of the fire. You heard the sound of words but saw no form; there was only a voice.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:14 - And the LORD directed me at that time to teach you the decrees and laws you are to follow in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:15 - You saw no form of any kind the day the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the fire. Therefore watch yourselves very carefully,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:19 - And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:21 - The LORD was angry with me because of you, and he solemnly swore that I would not cross the Jordan and enter the good land the LORD your God is giving you as your inheritance.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:23 - Be careful not to forget the covenant of the LORD your God that he made with you; do not make for yourselves an idol in the form of anything the LORD your God has forbidden.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:24 - For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:27 - The LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and only a few of you will survive among the nations to which the LORD will drive you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:31 - For the LORD your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you or forget the covenant with your ancestors, which he confirmed to them by oath.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:34 - Has any god ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation, by testings, by signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, or by great and awesome deeds, like all the things the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your very eyes?
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:35 - You were shown these things so that you might know that the LORD is God; besides him there is no other.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:39 - Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:40 - Keep his decrees and commands, which I am giving you today, so that it may go well with you and your children after you and that you may live long in the land the LORD your God gives you for all time.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:2 - The LORD our God made a covenant with us at Horeb.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:3 - It was not with our ancestors[fn] that the LORD made this covenant, but with us, with all of us who are alive here today.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:4 - The LORD spoke to you face to face out of the fire on the mountain.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:6 - “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:9 - You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:11 - “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:12 - “Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the LORD your God has commanded you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:15 - Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the LORD your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:16 - “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:22 - These are the commandments the LORD proclaimed in a loud voice to your whole assembly there on the mountain from out of the fire, the cloud and the deep darkness; and he added nothing more. Then he wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:24 - And you said, “The LORD our God has shown us his glory and his majesty, and we have heard his voice from the fire. Today we have seen that a person can live even if God speaks with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:27 - Go near and listen to all that the LORD our God says. Then tell us whatever the LORD our God tells you. We will listen and obey.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:28 - The LORD heard you when you spoke to me, and the LORD said to me, “I have heard what this people said to you. Everything they said was good.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:32 - So be careful to do what the LORD your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:33 - Walk in obedience to all that the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:1 - These are the commands, decrees and laws the LORD your God directed me to teach you to observe in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:3 - Hear, Israel, and be careful to obey so that it may go well with you and that you may increase greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, promised you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:4 - Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:10 - When the LORD your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:15 - for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:18 - Do what is right and good in the LORD's sight, so that it may go well with you and you may go in and take over the good land the LORD promised on oath to your ancestors,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:20 - In the future, when your son asks you, “What is the meaning of the stipulations, decrees and laws the LORD our God has commanded you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:21 - tell him: “We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, but the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:22 - Before our eyes the LORD sent signs and wonders—great and terrible—on Egypt and Pharaoh and his whole household.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:24 - The LORD commanded us to obey all these decrees and to fear the LORD our God, so that we might always prosper and be kept alive, as is the case today.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:25 - And if we are careful to obey all this law before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us, that will be our righteousness.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:1 - When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you—
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:2 - and when the LORD your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally.[fn] Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:4 - for they will turn your children away from following me to serve other gods, and the LORD's anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:6 - For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:7 - The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:8 - But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:9 - Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:12 - If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the LORD your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your ancestors.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:13 - He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and olive oil—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:15 - The LORD will keep you free from every disease. He will not inflict on you the horrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but he will inflict them on all who hate you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:16 - You must destroy all the peoples the LORD your God gives over to you. Do not look on them with pity and do not serve their gods, for that will be a snare to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:18 - But do not be afraid of them; remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:19 - You saw with your own eyes the great trials, the signs and wonders, the mighty hand and outstretched arm, with which the LORD your God brought you out. The LORD your God will do the same to all the peoples you now fear.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:20 - Moreover, the LORD your God will send the hornet among them until even the survivors who hide from you have perished.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:21 - Do not be terrified by them, for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a great and awesome God.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:22 - The LORD your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. You will not be allowed to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals will multiply around you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:23 - But the LORD your God will deliver them over to you, throwing them into great confusion until they are destroyed.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:1 - Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the LORD promised on oath to your ancestors.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:2 - Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:5 - Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the LORD your God disciplines you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:7 - For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:18 - But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 8:20 - Like the nations the LORD destroyed before you, so you will be destroyed for not obeying the LORD your God.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:3 - But be assured today that the LORD your God is the one who goes across ahead of you like a devouring fire. He will destroy them; he will subdue them before you. And you will drive them out and annihilate them quickly, as the LORD has promised you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:4 - After the LORD your God has driven them out before you, do not say to yourself, “The LORD has brought me here to take possession of this land because of my righteousness.” No, it is on account of the wickedness of these nations that the LORD is going to drive them out before you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:5 - It is not because of your righteousness or your integrity that you are going in to take possession of their land; but on account of the wickedness of these nations, the LORD your God will drive them out before you, to accomplish what he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:6 - Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the LORD your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:8 - At Horeb you aroused the LORD's wrath so that he was angry enough to destroy you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:9 - When I went up on the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that the LORD had made with you, I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights; I ate no bread and drank no water.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:10 - The LORD gave me two stone tablets inscribed by the finger of God. On them were all the commandments the LORD proclaimed to you on the mountain out of the fire, on the day of the assembly.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:11 - At the end of the forty days and forty nights, the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, the tablets of the covenant.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:12 - Then the LORD told me, “Go down from here at once, because your people whom you brought out of Egypt have become corrupt. They have turned away quickly from what I commanded them and have made an idol for themselves.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:13 - And the LORD said to me, “I have seen this people, and they are a stiff-necked people indeed!
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:16 - When I looked, I saw that you had sinned against the LORD your God; you had made for yourselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf. You had turned aside quickly from the way that the LORD had commanded you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:19 - I feared the anger and wrath of the LORD, for he was angry enough with you to destroy you. But again the LORD listened to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:20 - And the LORD was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him, but at that time I prayed for Aaron too.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:23 - And when the LORD sent you out from Kadesh Barnea, he said, “Go up and take possession of the land I have given you.” But you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God. You did not trust him or obey him.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 9:25 - I lay prostrate before the LORD those forty days and forty nights because the LORD had said he would destroy you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:1 - At that time the LORD said to me, “Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones and come up to me on the mountain. Also make a wooden ark.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:4 - The LORD wrote on these tablets what he had written before, the Ten Commandments he had proclaimed to you on the mountain, out of the fire, on the day of the assembly. And the LORD gave them to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:5 - Then I came back down the mountain and put the tablets in the ark I had made, as the LORD commanded me, and they are there now.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:8 - At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister and to pronounce blessings in his name, as they still do today.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:9 - That is why the Levites have no share or inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the LORD is their inheritance, as the LORD your God told them.)
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:10 - Now I had stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights, as I did the first time, and the LORD listened to me at this time also. It was not his will to destroy you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:11 - “Go,” the LORD said to me, “and lead the people on their way, so that they may enter and possess the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:12 - And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:15 - Yet the LORD set his affection on your ancestors and loved them, and he chose you, their descendants, above all the nations—as it is today.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:17 - For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 10:22 - Your ancestors who went down into Egypt were seventy in all, and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:4 - what he did to the Egyptian army, to its horses and chariots, how he overwhelmed them with the waters of the Red Sea[fn] as they were pursuing you, and how the LORD brought lasting ruin on them.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:9 - and so that you may live long in the land the LORD swore to your ancestors to give to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:12 - It is a land the LORD your God cares for; the eyes of the LORD your God are continually on it from the beginning of the year to its end.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:17 - Then the LORD's anger will burn against you, and he will shut up the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce, and you will soon perish from the good land the LORD is giving you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:21 - so that your days and the days of your children may be many in the land the LORD swore to give your ancestors, as many as the days that the heavens are above the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:23 - then the LORD will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations larger and stronger than you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:25 - No one will be able to stand against you. The LORD your God, as he promised you, will put the terror and fear of you on the whole land, wherever you go.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:29 - When the LORD your God has brought you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim on Mount Gerizim the blessings, and on Mount Ebal the curses.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 11:31 - You are about to cross the Jordan to enter and take possession of the land the LORD your God is giving you. When you have taken it over and are living there,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:1 - These are the decrees and laws you must be careful to follow in the land that the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has given you to possess—as long as you live in the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:5 - But you are to seek the place the LORD your God will choose from among all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To that place you must go;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:7 - There, in the presence of the LORD your God, you and your families shall eat and shall rejoice in everything you have put your hand to, because the LORD your God has blessed you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:9 - since you have not yet reached the resting place and the inheritance the LORD your God is giving you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:10 - But you will cross the Jordan and settle in the land the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, and he will give you rest from all your enemies around you so that you will live in safety.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:11 - Then to the place the LORD your God will choose as a dwelling for his Name—there you are to bring everything I command you: your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and special gifts, and all the choice possessions you have vowed to the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:14 - Offer them only at the place the LORD will choose in one of your tribes, and there observe everything I command you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:18 - Instead, you are to eat them in the presence of the LORD your God at the place the LORD your God will choose—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, and the Levites from your towns—and you are to rejoice before the LORD your God in everything you put your hand to.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:20 - When the LORD your God has enlarged your territory as he promised you, and you crave meat and say, “I would like some meat,” then you may eat as much of it as you want.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:21 - If the place where the LORD your God chooses to put his Name is too far away from you, you may slaughter animals from the herds and flocks the LORD has given you, as I have commanded you, and in your own towns you may eat as much of them as you want.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:26 - But take your consecrated things and whatever you have vowed to give, and go to the place the LORD will choose.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:29 - The LORD your God will cut off before you the nations you are about to invade and dispossess. But when you have driven them out and settled in their land,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 12:31 - You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 13:3 - you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The LORD your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 13:5 - That prophet or dreamer must be put to death for inciting rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt and redeemed you from the land of slavery. That prophet or dreamer tried to turn you from the way the LORD your God commanded you to follow. You must purge the evil from among you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 13:12 - If you hear it said about one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you to live in
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 13:17 - and none of the condemned things[fn] are to be found in your hands. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger, will show you mercy, and will have compassion on you. He will increase your numbers, as he promised on oath to your ancestors—
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 14:2 - for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. Out of all the peoples on the face of the earth, the LORD has chosen you to be his treasured possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 14:23 - Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 14:24 - But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the LORD your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the LORD will choose to put his Name is so far away),
