05:004:030 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come
upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God,
and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
05:004:031 (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not
forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy
fathers which he sware unto them.
05:004:032 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before
thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from
the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such
thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
05:004:033 Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the
midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
05:004:034 Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the
midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and
by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great
terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt
before your eyes?
05:004:035 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the
LORD he is God; there is none else beside him.
05:004:036 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might
instruct thee: and upon earth he shewed thee his great fire; and thou
heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.
05:004:037 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their
seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty
power out of Egypt;
05:004:038 To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier
than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an
inheritance, as it is this day.
05:004:039 Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart,
that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath:
there is none else.
05:004:040 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his
commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with
thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong
thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
05:004:041 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward
the sunrising;
05:004:042 That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his
neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing
unto one of these cities he might live:
05:004:043 Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of
the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in
Bashan, of the Manassites.
05:004:044 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of
Israel:
05:004:045 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the
judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they
came forth out of Egypt.
05:004:046 On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in
the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom
Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out
of Egypt:
