Deuteronomy chapter .x.
¶ In the same season 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,
and I will write in the table, the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
And I made an ark of sethim wood and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mountain and the two tables in mine hand.
And he wrote in the tables, according to the first writing (the ten verses which the LORD spake unto you in the mount out of the fire in the day when the people were gathered) and gave them unto me.
And I departed and came down from the hill and put the tables in the ark which I had made: and there they remained, as the LORD commanded me.
And the children of Israel took their journey from Beroth Ben Iaken to Mosera, where Aaron died and where he was buried, and Eleazer his son became priest in his stead.
And from thence they departed unto Gudgod: and from Gudgod to Iathbath, a land of rivers of water.
And the same season the LORD separated the tribe of Levi to bear the ark of the appointment of the LORD and to stond before the LORD, and to minister unto him and to bless in his name unto this day.
Wherefore the Levites have no part nor inheritance with their brethren. The LORD he is their inheritance, as the LORD thy God hath promised them.
And I tarried in the mount, even as at the first time forty days and forty nights, and the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also, so that the LORD would not destroy thee.
And the LORD said unto me: up and go forth in the journey before the people and let them go in and conquer the land which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
¶ And now Israel what is it that the LORD thy God requireth of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God and 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,
that thou keep the commandments of the LORD and his ordinances which I command thee this day, for thy wealth.
Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD's thy God, and the earth with all that therein is:
only the LORD had a lust unto thy fathers to love them, and therefore chose you their seed after them of all nations, as it is come to pass this day
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your hearts, and be no longer stiffnecked.
For the LORD your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty and a terrible which regardeth no man's person nor taketh gifts:
but doeth right unto the fatherless and widow and loveth the stranger, to give him food and raiment.
Love therefore the stranger, for ye were strangers your selves in the land of Egypt.
Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God and serve him and cleave unto him and swear by his name,
for he is thy praise and he is thy God that hath done these great and terrible things for thee, which thine eyes have seen.
Thy fathers went down into Egypt with seventy souls, and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven in multitude.
Praise the Everlasting Lord for His Faithful Word.
