9:27 Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the
stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
9:28 Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the LORD
was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and
because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the
wilderness.
9:29 Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou
broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
10:1 At that 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.
10:2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first
tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
10:3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone
like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables
in mine hand.
10:4 And he wrote on 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.
10:5 And I turned myself 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.
10:6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the
children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was buried;
and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.
10:7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to
Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
10:8 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark
of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto
him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
10:9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the
LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God promised him.
10:10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days
and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also, and
the LORD would not destroy thee.
10:11 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the
people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto
their fathers to give unto them.
10:12 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 thy heart and with all thy soul,
10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I
command thee this day for thy good?
10:14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's thy
God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
10:15 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he
chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this
day.
10:16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more
stiffnecked.
