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

Aslan International Ministry – `When Jehovah thy God doth cut off the nations, whose land Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and thou hast succeeded them, and dwelt in their cities, and in their houses,

²three cities thou dost separate for thee in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it.

^{3 Thou dost prepare for thee the way, and hast divided into three parts the border of thy land which Jehovah thy God doth cause thee to inherit, and it hath been for the fleeing thither of every man-slayer.}

⁴`And this [is] the matter of the man-slayer who fleeth thither, and hath lived: He who smiteth his neighbour unknowingly, and is not hating him heretofore,

^{5 even he who cometh in with his neighbour into a forest to hew wood, and his hand hath driven with an axe to cut the tree, and the iron hath slipped from the wood, and hath met his neighbour, and he hath died — he doth flee unto one of these cities, and hath lived,}

⁶lest the redeemer of blood pursue after the man-slayer when his heart is hot, and hath overtaken him (because the way is great), and hath smitten him — the life, and he hath no sentence of death, for he is not hating him heretofore;

^{7 therefore I am commanding thee, saying, Three cities thou dost separate to thee.}

^{8 `And if Jehovah thy God doth enlarge thy border, as He hath sworn to thy fathers, and hath given to thee all the land which He hath spoken to give to thy fathers —}

^{9 when thou keepest all this command to do it, which I am commanding thee to-day, to love Jehovah thy God, and to walk in His ways all the days — then thou hast added to thee yet three cities to these three;}

^{10 and innocent blood is not shed in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance, and there hath been upon thee blood.}

¹¹`And when a man is hating his neighbour, and hath lain in wait for him, and risen against him, and smitten him — the life, and he hath died, and he hath fled unto one of these cities,

¹²then the elders of his city have sent and taken him from thence, and given him into the hand of the redeemer of blood, and he hath died;

¹³thine eye hath no pity on him, and thou hast put away the innocent blood from Israel, and it is well with thee.

^{14 `Thou dost not remove a border of thy neighbour, which they of former times have made, in thine inheritance, which thou dost inherit in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it.}

¹⁵`One witness doth not rise against a man for any iniquity, and for any sin, in any sin which he sinneth; by the mouth of two witnesses, or by the mouth of three witnesses, is a thing established.

¹⁶`When a violent witness doth rise against a man, to testify against him apostacy,

^{17 then have both the men who have the strife stood before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges who are in those days,}

¹⁸and the judges have searched diligently, and lo, the witness [is] a false witness, a falsehood he hath testified against his brother:

^{19 `Then ye have done to him as he devised to do to his brother, and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst,}

²⁰and those who are left do hear and fear, and add not to do any more according to this evil thing in thy midst;

^{21 and thine eye doth not pity — life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. – Aslan International Ministry}
