These [are] the words of the covenant which Jehovah hath commanded Moses – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – These [are] the words of the covenant which Jehovah hath commanded Moses to make with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, apart from the covenant which He made with them in Horeb.

^{2 And Moses calleth unto all Israel, and saith unto them, `Ye — ye have seen all that which Jehovah hath done before your eyes in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;}

³the great trials which thine eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders;

⁴and Jehovah hath not given to you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, till this day,

⁵and I cause you to go forty years in a wilderness; your garments have not been consumed from off you, and thy shoe hath not worn away from off thy foot;

⁶bread ye have not eaten, and wine and strong drink ye have not drunk, so that ye know that I [am] Jehovah your God.

⁷`And ye come in unto this place, and Sihon king of Heshbon — also Og king of Bashan — doth come out to meet us, to battle, and we smite them,

⁸and take their land, and give it for an inheritance to the Reubenite, and to the Gadite, and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh;

⁹and ye have kept the words of this covenant, and done them, so that ye cause all that ye do to prosper.

¹⁰`Ye are standing to-day, all of you, before Jehovah your God — your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your authorities — every man of Israel;

¹¹your infants, your wives, and thy sojourner who [is] in the midst of thy camps, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water —

^{12 for thy passing over into the covenant of Jehovah thy God, and into His oath which Jehovah thy God is making with thee to-day;}

¹³in order to establish thee to-day to Him for a people, and He Himself is thy God, as He hath spoken to thee, and as He hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

¹⁴`And not with you alone am I making this covenant and this oath;

^{15 but with him who is here with us, standing to-day before Jehovah our God, and with him who is not here with us to-day,}

¹⁶for ye have known how ye dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we passed by through the midst of the nations which ye have passed by;

¹⁷and ye see their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which [are] with them,

¹⁸lest there be among you a man or woman, or family or tribe, whose heart is turning to-day from Jehovah our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations, lest there be in you a root fruitful of gall and wormwood:

^{19 `And it hath been, in his hearing the words of this oath, and he hath blessed himself in his heart, saying, I have peace, though in the stubbornness of my heart I go on, in order to end the fulness with the thirst.}

^{20 Jehovah is not willing to be propitious to him, for then doth the anger of Jehovah smoke, also His zeal, against that man, and lain down on him hath all the oath which is written in this book, and Jehovah hath blotted out his name from under the heavens,}

²¹and Jehovah hath separated him for evil, out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the oaths of the covenant which is written in this book of the law.

^{22 `And the latter generation of your sons who rise after you, and the stranger who cometh in from a land afar off, have said when they have seen the strokes of that land, and its sicknesses which Jehovah hath sent into it, —}

²³([with] brimstone and salt is the whole land burnt, it is not sown, nor doth it shoot up, nor doth there go up on it any herb, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim, which Jehovah overturned in His anger, and in His fury,) —

^{24 yea, all the nations have said, Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus to this land? what the heat of this great anger?}

²⁵`And they have said, Because that they have forsaken the covenant of Jehovah, God of their fathers, which He made with them in His bringing them out of the land of Egypt,

²⁶and they go and serve other gods, and bow themselves to them — gods which they have not known, and which He hath not apportioned to them;

²⁷and the anger of Jehovah burneth against that land, to bring in on it all the reviling that is written in this book,

²⁸and Jehovah doth pluck them from off their ground in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath, and doth cast them unto another land, as [at] this day.

²⁹`The things hidden [are] to Jehovah our God, and the things revealed [are] to us and to our sons — to the age, to do all the words of this law. – Aslan International Ministry

`All the command which I am commanding thee to-day ye observe to do – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `All the command which I am commanding thee to-day ye observe to do, so that ye live, and have multiplied, and gone in, and possessed the land which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers;

²and thou hast remembered all the way which Jehovah thy God hath caused thee to go these forty years in the wilderness, in order to humble thee to try thee, to know that which [is] in thy heart, whether thou dost keep His commands or not.

³`And He doth humble thee, and cause thee to hunger and doth cause thee to eat the manna (which thou hast not known, even thy fathers have not known), in order to cause thee to know that not by bread alone doth man live, but by every produce of the mouth of Jehovah man doth live.

^{4 `Thy raiment hath not worn out from off thee, and thy foot hath not swelled these forty years,}

^{5 and thou hast known, with thy heart, that as a man chastiseth his son Jehovah thy God is chastising thee,}

^{6 and thou hast kept the commands of Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.}

⁷`For Jehovah thy God is bringing thee in unto a good land, a land of brooks of waters, of fountains, and of depths coming out in valley and in mountain:

⁸a land of wheat, and barley, and vine, and fig, and pomegranate; a land of oil olive and honey;

^{9 a land in which without scarcity thou dost eat bread, thou dost not lack anything in it; a land whose stones [are] iron, and out of its mountains thou dost dig brass;}

¹⁰and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied, and hast blessed Jehovah thy God, on the good land which he hath given to thee.

^{11 `Take heed to thyself, lest thou forget Jehovah thy God so as not to keep His commands, and His judgments, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day;}

^{12 lest thou eat, and hast been satisfied, and good houses dost build, and hast inhabited;}

¹³and thy herd and thy flock be multiplied, and silver and gold be multiplied to thee; and all that is thine be multiplied:

^{14 `And thy heart hath been high, and thou hast forgotten Jehovah thy God (who is bringing thee out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;}

¹⁵who is causing thee to go in the great and the terrible wilderness — burning serpent, and scorpion, and thirst — where there is no water; who is bringing out to thee waters from the flinty rock;

¹⁶who is causing thee to eat manna in the wilderness, which thy fathers have not known, in order to humble thee, and in order to try thee, to do thee good in thy latter end),

^{17 and thou hast said in thy heart, My power, and the might of my hand, hath made for me this wealth:}

^{18 `And thou hast remembered Jehovah thy God, for He it [is] who is giving to thee power to make wealth, in order to establish His covenant which He hath sworn to thy fathers as [at] this day.}

^{19 `And it hath been — if thou really forget Jehovah thy God, and hast gone after other gods, and served them, and bowed thyself to them, I have testified against you to-day that ye do utterly perish;}

^{20 as the nations whom Jehovah is destroying from your presence, so ye perish; because ye hearken not to the voice of Jehovah your God. – Aslan International Ministry}

And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 7 And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for he did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him,

²and the feast of the Jews was nigh — that of tabernacles —

^{3 his brethren, therefore, said unto him, `Remove hence, and go away to Judea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works that thou dost;}

⁴for no one in secret doth anything, and himself seeketh to be in public; if thou dost these things — manifest thyself to the world;’

⁵for not even were his brethren believing in him.

⁶Jesus, therefore, saith to them, `My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;

⁷the world is not able to hate you, but me it doth hate, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.

⁸Ye — go ye up to this feast; I do not yet go up to this feast, because my time hath not yet been fulfilled;’

^{9 and saying these things to them, he remained in Galilee.}

¹⁰And when his brethren went up, then also he himself went up to the feast, not manifestly, but as in secret;

¹¹the Jews, therefore, were seeking him, in the feast, and said, `Where is that one?’

¹²and there was much murmuring about him among the multitudes, some indeed said — `He is good;’ and others said, `No, but he leadeth astray the multitude;’

¹³no one, however, was speaking freely about him, through fear of the Jews.

¹⁴And it being now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple, and he was teaching,

¹⁵and the Jews were wondering, saying, `How hath this one known letters — not having learned?’

¹⁶Jesus answered them and said, `My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me;

¹⁷if any one may will to do His will, he shall know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or — I do speak from myself.

¹⁸`He who is speaking from himself his own glory doth seek, but he who is seeking the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him;

¹⁹hath not Moses given you the law? and none of you doth the law; why me do ye seek to kill?’

²⁰The multitude answered and said, `Thou hast a demon, who doth seek to kill thee?’

²¹Jesus answered and said to them, `One work I did, and ye all wonder,

²²because of this, Moses hath given you the circumcision — not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers — and on a sabbath ye circumcise a man;

²³if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?

²⁴judge not according to appearance, but the righteous judgment judge.’

²⁵Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, `Is not this he whom they are seeking to kill?

²⁶and, lo, he doth speak freely, and they say nothing to him; did the rulers at all know truly that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷but this one — we have known whence he is; and the Christ, when he doth come, no one doth know whence he is.’

²⁸Jesus cried, therefore, in the temple, teaching and saying, `Ye have both known me, and ye have known whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but He who sent me is true, whom ye have not known;

²⁹and I have known Him, because I am from Him, and He did send me.’

³⁰They were seeking, therefore, to seize him, and no one laid the hand on him, because his hour had not yet come,

³¹and many out of the multitude did believe in him, and said — `The Christ — when he may come — will he do more signs than these that this one did?’

³²The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take him;

³³Jesus, therefore, said to them, `Yet a little time I am with you, and I go away unto Him who sent me;

³⁴ye will seek me, and ye shall not find; and where I am, ye are not able to come.’

³⁵The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, `Whither is this one about to go that we shall not find him? — to the dispersion of the Greeks is he about to go? and to teach the Greeks;

³⁶what is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and ye shall not find? and, Where I am, ye are not able to come?’

³⁷And in the last, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, `If any one doth thirst, let him come unto me and drink;

³⁸he who is believing in me, according as the Writing said, Rivers out of his belly shall flow of living water;’

^{39 and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.}

⁴⁰Many, therefore out of the multitude, having heard the word, said, `This is truly the Prophet;’

⁴¹others said, `This is the Christ;’ and others said, `Why, out of Galilee doth the Christ come?

⁴²Did not the Writing say, that out of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem — the village where David was — the Christ doth come?’

⁴³A division, therefore, arose among the multitude because of him.

⁴⁴And certain of them were willing to seize him, but no one laid hands on him;

⁴⁵the officers came, therefore, unto the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, `Wherefore did ye not bring him?’

⁴⁶The officers answered, `Never so spake man — as this man.’

⁴⁷The Pharisees, therefore, answered them, `Have ye also been led astray?

⁴⁸did any one out of the rulers believe in him? or out of the Pharisees?

⁴⁹but this multitude, that is not knowing the law, is accursed.’

⁵⁰Nicodemus saith unto them — he who came by night unto him — being one of them,

⁵¹`Doth our law judge the man, if it may not hear from him first, and know what he doth?’

⁵²They answered and said to him, `Art thou also out of Galilee? search and see, that a prophet out of Galilee hath not risen;’

⁵³and each one went on to his house, but Jesus went on to the mount of the Olives. – Aslan International Ministry

When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry –4 When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees heard that Jesus more disciples doth make and baptize than John,

²(though indeed Jesus himself was not baptizing, but his disciples,)

³he left Judea and went away again to Galilee,

⁴and it was behoving him to go through Samaria.

⁵He cometh, therefore, to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the place that Jacob gave to Joseph his son;

⁶and there was there a well of Jacob. Jesus therefore having been weary from the journeying, was sitting thus on the well; it was as it were the sixth hour;

⁷there cometh a woman out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, `Give me to drink;’

⁸for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;

^{9 the Samaritan woman therefore saith to him, `How dost thou, being a Jew, ask drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?’ for Jews have no dealing with Samaritans.}

¹⁰Jesus answered and said to her, `If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.’

¹¹The woman saith to him, `Sir, thou hast not even a vessel to draw with, and the well is deep; whence, then, hast thou the living water?

¹²Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who did give us the well, and himself out of it did drink, and his sons, and his cattle?’

¹³Jesus answered and said to her, `Every one who is drinking of this water shall thirst again;

¹⁴but whoever may drink of the water that I will give him, may not thirst — to the age; and the water that I will give him shall become in him a well of water, springing up to life age-during.’

¹⁵The woman saith unto him, `Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.’

¹⁶Jesus saith to her, `Go, call thy husband, and come hither;’

^{17 the woman answered and said, `I have not a husband.’ Jesus saith to her, `Well didst thou say — A husband I have not;}

¹⁸for five husbands thou hast had, and, now, he whom thou hast is not thy husband; this hast thou said truly.’

¹⁹The woman saith to him, `Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet;

²⁰our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye — ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.’

²¹Jesus saith to her, `Woman, believe me, that there doth come an hour, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father;

²²ye worship what ye have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews;

²³but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;

²⁴God [is] a Spirit, and those worshipping Him, in spirit and truth it doth behove to worship.’

²⁵The woman saith to him, `I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;’

²⁶Jesus saith to her, `I am [he], who am speaking to thee.’

²⁷And upon this came his disciples, and were wondering that with a woman he was speaking, no one, however, said, `What seekest thou?’ or `Why speakest thou with her?’

²⁸The woman then left her water-jug, and went away to the city, and saith to the men,

²⁹`Come, see a man, who told me all things — as many as I did; is this the Christ?’

³⁰They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming unto him.

³¹And in the meanwhile his disciples were asking him, saying, `Rabbi, eat;’

³²and he said to them, `I have food to eat that ye have not known.’

³³The disciples then said one to another, `Did any one bring him anything to eat?’

³⁴Jesus saith to them, `My food is, that I may do the will of Him who sent me, and may finish His work;

³⁵do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh; lo, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white unto harvest already.

³⁶`And he who is reaping doth receive a reward, and doth gather fruit to life age-during, that both he who is sowing and he who is reaping may rejoice together;

^{37 for in this the saying is the true one, that one is the sower and another the reaper.}

³⁸I sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others laboured, and ye into their labour have entered.

³⁹And from that city many believed in him, of the Samaritans, because of the word of the woman testifying, — `He told me all things — as many as I did.’

⁴⁰When, then, the Samaritans came unto him, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained there two days;

⁴¹and many more did believe because of his word,

⁴²and said to the woman — `No more because of thy speaking do we believe; for we ourselves have heard and known that this is truly the Saviour of the world — the Christ.’

⁴³And after the two days he went forth thence, and went away to Galilee,

⁴⁴for Jesus himself testified that a prophet in his own country shall not have honour;

⁴⁵when then, he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all things that he did in Jerusalem in the feast — for they also went to the feast.

^{46 Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine, and there was a certain courtier, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,}

⁴⁷he, having heard that Jesus is come out of Judea to Galilee, went away unto him, and was asking him that he may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.

⁴⁸Jesus then said unto him, `If signs and wonders ye may not see, ye will not believe.’

⁴⁹The courtier saith unto him, `Sir, come down before my child die;’

^{50 Jesus saith to him, `Be going on; thy son doth live.’ And the man believed the word that Jesus said to him, and was going on,}

⁵¹and he now going down, his servants met him, and told, saying — `Thy child doth live;’

⁵²he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him — `Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him;’

⁵³then the father knew that [it was] in that hour in which Jesus said to him — `Thy son doth live,’ and he himself believed, and his whole house;

^{54 this again a second sign did Jesus, having come out of Judea to Galilee. – Aslan International Ministry}
