Deuteronomy Chapter 10

Deuteronomy Chapter 10
1 In the same time the Lord said unto me,
Hew thee two tables of stone like unto
the first, and come up unto me into the
mount, and make thee an ark of wood,
2 And I will write upon the tables the
words that were upon the first tables,
which thou breakest, and thou shalt put
them in the ark.
3 And I made an ark of shittim wood,
and hewed two tables of stone like unto
the first, and went up into the mountain,
and the two tables in mine hand. 4 Then
he wrote upon the tables according to the
first writing (the ten commandments,
which the Lord spake unto you in the
mount out of the midst of the fire, in the
day of the assembly) and the Lord gave
them unto me. 5 And I departed, and
came down from the mount, and put the
tables in the ark which I had made: and
there they be, as the Lord commanded
me. 6 And the children of Israel took
their journey from Beeroth of the
children of Jaakan to Mosera, where
Aaron died, and was buried, and Eleazar
his son became priest in his stead.
7 From thence they departed unto
Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to
Jotbath a land of running waters.
8 The same time the Lord separated the
tribe of Levi to bear the ark of the
covenant of the Lord, and to stand
before the Lord, to minister unto him,
and to bless in his name unto this day.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor
inheritance with his brethren: for the
Lord is his inheritance, as the Lord thy
God hath promised him.
10 And I tarried in the mount, as at the
first time, forty days and forty nights, and
the Lord heard me at that time also, and
the Lord would not destroy thee. 11 But
the Lord said unto me, Arise, go forth in
the journey before the people, that they
may go in and possess the land, which I
swear unto their fathers to give unto
them.
12 And now, Israel, what doth the Lord
thy God require of thee, but to fear the
Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways,
and to love him, and to serve the Lord
thy God, with all thine heart, and with
all thy soul?
13 That thou keep the commandments of
the Lord, and his ordinances, which I
command thee this day, for thy wealth?
14 Behold, heaven, and the heaven of
heavens is the Lord’s thy God, and the
earth, with all that therein is.
15 Notwithstanding, the Lord set his
delight in thy fathers to love them, and
did choose their seed after them, even
you above all people, as appeareth this
day.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of
your heart, and harden your necks no
more.
17 For the Lord your God is God of
gods, and Lord of lords, a great God,
mighty and terrible, which accepteth no
persons nor taketh reward: 18 Who
doeth right unto the fatherless and
widow, and loveth the stranger, giving
him food and raiment.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye
were strangers in the land of Egypt. 20
Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God: thou
shalt serve him, and thou shalt cleave
unto him, and shalt swear by his name.
21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God,
that hath done for thee these great and
terrible things, which thine eyes have
seen.
22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt
with seventy persons, and now the Lord
thy God hath made thee, as the stars of
the heaven in multitude.
