Remembering the Exodus and Conquest

29Th05Dt 28:ese are the terms of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the Israelites in the land of Moab in addition to the covenant that he made with them in Horeb.H1697H1285H3068H6680H4872H3772H1121H3478H776H4124H1285H3772H2722 2Moses called all Israel together and addressed them: "You saw everything that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his servants, and to his whole country.H4872H7121H3478H559H7200H3068H6213H5869H776H4714H6547H5650H776 3Those great feats that you saw with your own eyes are signs and great wonders.H1419H4531H5869H7200H226H1419H4159 4Yet to this day, the Lord hasn't given you a heart that understands, eyes that perceive, and ears that discern.2H3068H5414H3820H3045H5869H7200H241H8085H3117 5"Though I've led you for 40 years in the desert, neither your clothes nor your shoes have worn out.H3212H705H8141H4057H8008H1086H5275H1086H7272 6You didn't have to eat bread or drink wine or an intoxicating drink, in order to know that I am the Lord your God.H398H3899H8354H3196H7941H3045H3068H430 7Then you reached this place, where King Sihon of Heshbon and King Og of Bashan had come out to meet and fight with us, but we defeated them.H935H4725H5511H4428H2809H5747H4428H1316H3318H7125H4421H5221 8We captured their land and handed it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh.H3947H776H5414H5159H7206H1425H2677H7626H4520 9Therefore, keep the terms of this covenant, carrying them out so that you'll be wise in everything you do."H8104H1697H1285H6213H7919H6213

Entering into a Covenant Relationship

10"All of you are standing today in the presence of the Lord your God - the heads of your tribes, your elders, your magistrates, all the men of Israel,H5324H3117H6440H3068H430H7218H7626H2205H7860H376H3478 11along with your children, your wives, even the foreigner in your camp, including the woodchopper and the water drawer -H2945H802H1616H7130H4264H2404H6086H7579H4325 12to enter into a covenant with the Lord your God and into the oath that he is about to make with you today,H5674H1285H3068H430H423H3068H430H3772H3117 13so that he will elevate you to be a people for him. And he will be God to you, just as he promised you and swore to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.H6965H3117H5971H430H1696H7650H1H85H3327H3290 14Now, I'm not making this covenant and oath with you alone,H3772H1285H423 15but with whoever is here with us standing in the presence of the Lord our God today, as well as with those who aren't here with us today."H5975H3426H3117H6440H3068H430H3117

Incurring the Judgment of God

16"Now, you know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we traveled through the territory of other nations.H3045H3427H776H4714H5674H7130H1471H5674 17You have seen their detestable practices, their idols of wood, stone, silver, and gold that they had with them.H7200H8251H1544H6086H68H3701H2091 18Be alert so there is no man, woman, family, or a tribe whose heart is turning away from the Lord your God to go and serve the gods of those nations. "Be alert so there will be no root among you that produces poisonous and bitter fruit,H3426H376H802H4940H7626H3824H6437H3117H3068H430H3212H5647H430H1471H3426H8328H6509H7219H3939 19because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he will bless himself and say: 'I will have a peaceful life, even though I'm determined to be stubborn.' By doing this he will be sweeping away both watered and parched ground alike.'H8085H1697H423H1288H3824H559H7965H3588H3212H8307H3820H5595H7302H6771 20The Lord won't forgive such a person. Instead, the zealous anger of the Lord will blaze against him. All the curses that were written in this book will fall on him. Then the Lord will wipe out his memory from under heaven.H3068H14H5545H639H3068H7068H6225H376H423H3789H5612H7257H3068H4229H8034H8064 21The Lord will set him apart from all the tribes of Israel for destruction, according to the curses of the covenant that were written in this book of the Law."H3068H914H7451H7626H3478H423H1285H3789H5612H8451

A Reminder of Sodom and Gomorrah

22"Then the generation to come - your descendants after you and the foreigners who come from afar - will see plagues and illnesses infecting the land that the Lord will inflict on it.H1755H314H1121H6965H310H5237H935H7350H776H559H7200H4347H776H8463H3068H2470 23The whole land will be covered with salt pits and burning sulfur, with nothing planted, nothing sprouting, and producing no vegetation - overthrown like Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, when the Lord had overthrown them in his raging fury.H776H1614H4417H8316H2232H6779H6212H5927H4114H5467H6017H126H6636H3068H2015H639H2534 24All the nations will ask, 'Why did the Lord do this to this land?What is the meaning of this fierce and great anger?'H1471H559H3068H6213H776H2750H1419H639 25Then they will answer themselves, 'Because they've abandoned the covenant of their Lord, the God of their ancestors that he had made with them when he brought them out of Egypt.H559H5800H1285H3068H430H1H3772H3318H776H4714 26They followed and worshipped other gods whom they had not known and whom he did not assign to them.H3212H5647H312H430H7812H430H3045H2505 27For this reason, the anger of the Lord raged against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that were written in this book.H639H3068H2734H776H935H7045H3789H5612 28The Lord uprooted them from the land in his anger, wrath, and great fury, deporting them to another land, and that's the way things are today.'29H3068H5428H127H639H2534H1419H7110H7993H312H776H3117 29The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but what has been revealed belongs to us and to our children forever, so that we might observe the words of this Law."29H5641H3068H430H1540H1121H5704H5769H6213H1697H8451
