1: Hear,H8085 Israel!H3478 YouH0859 [are] to cross overH5674 today,H3117 -H0853 the JordanH3383 and go inH0935 to dispossessH3423 nationsH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 than yourselfH4480 citiesH5892 greatH1419 and fortified upH1219 to heaven,H8064

2: a peopleH5971 greatH1419 and tall,H7311 the descendantsH1121 of the Anakim,H6062 whomH0834 youH0859 know,H3045 and [of whom] youH0859 heard [it said]H8085 whoH4310 can standH3320 beforeH6440 the descendants ofH1121 Anak!H6061

3: therefore understandH3045 today,H3117 thatH3588 YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 [is] HeH1931 who goes overH5674 before youH6440 [as] a fireH0784 consumingH0398 HeH1931 will destroy themH8045 and HeH1931 bring them downH3665 before you-H6440 so you shall drive them out,H3423 and destroy themH0006 quickly,H4118 asH0834 has saidH1696 YahwehH3068

4: NotH0408 do thinkH0559 in your heart,H3824 after has cast outH1920 YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 themH0853 before youH6440 saying,H0559 because of my righteousnessH6666 has brought me inH0935 YahwehH3068 to possessH3423 -H0853 land-H0776 ThisH2063 but because of [it is] the wickednessH3423 of nationsH1471 theseH0428 YahwehH3068 is driving them outH7564 from before you.H6440

5: [it is] notH3808 because of your righteousness,H6666 or the uprightnessH3476 of your heart,H3824 [that] youH0859 go inH0935 to possessH3423 -H0853 their land,H0776 butH3588 because of the wickednessH3423 of nationsH1471 theseH0428 [that] YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 drives them outH7564 from before youH6440 thatH4616 He may fulfillH6965 -H0853 the wordH1697 whichH0834 sworeH7650 YahwehH3068 to your fathers,H0001 to Abraham,H0085 Isaac,H3327 and Jacob.H3290

6: Therefore understandH3045 thatH3588 notH3808 because of your righteousness-H6666 YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 is givingH5414 -H0853 landH0776 goodH2896 thisH2063 to possessH3423 forH3588 a people.H5971 StiffH7186 neckedH6203 you [are].H0859

7: Remember,H2142 not,H0408 do forgetH7911 -H0853 howH0834 you provoked to wrathH7107 -H0853 YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 in the wilderness-H4057 fromH4480 the dayH3117 thatH0834 you departedH3318 from the landH0776 of Egypt,H4714 untilH5704 you cameH0935 toH5704 place,H4725 thisH2088 rebelliousH4784 you have beenH1961 againstH5973 Yahweh.H3068

8: And in HorebH2722 you provoked to wrathH7107 -H0853 YahwehH3068 so that was angry [enough]H0599 YahwehH3068 to have destroyedH8045 you.H0853

9: When I went upH5927 into the mountainH2022 to receiveH3947 the tabletsH3871 of stone,H0068 the tabletsH3871 of the covenantH1285 whichH0834 madeH3772 YahwehH3068 with youH5973 then I stayedH3427 on the mountainH2022 fortyH0705 daysH3117 and fortyH0705 nights,H3915 breadH3899 neitherH3808 I ateH0398 and waterH4325 norH3808 drank.H8354

10: And deliveredH5414 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 -H0853 twoH8147 tabletsH3871 of stoneH0068 writtenH3789 with the fingerH0676 of God-H0430 and on themH5921 [were] allH3605 the words,H1697 whichH0834 had spokenH1696 YahwehH3068 to youH5973 on the mountainH2022 from the midstH8432 of the fireH0784 in the dayH3117 of the assembly.H6951

11: And it came to passH1961 at the endH7093 of fortyH0705 daysH3117 and fortyH0705 nights,H3915 gaveH5414 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 -H0853 twoH8147 tabletsH3871 of the stone,H0068 the tabletsH3871 of the covenant.H1285

12: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 Arise,H6965 go downH3381 quicklyH4118 from this [place]-H2088 forH3588 have acted corruptlyH7843 your peopleH5971 whomH0834 you broughtH3318 out of EgyptH4714 they have turned asideH5493 quicklyH4118 from-H4480 the wayH1870 whichH0834 I commanded themH6680 they have madeH6213 a molded image.H4541

13: And Furthermore spokeH0559 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 saying,H0559 I have seenH7200 -H0853 people,H5971 thisH2088 and indeed,H2009 a people.H5971 StiffH7186 neckedH6203 [they] are.H1931

14: Let aloneH7503 MeH4480 that I may destroy themH8045 and blot outH4229 -H0853 their nameH8034 from underH8478 heaven-H8064 and I will makeH6213 of youH0854 a nationH1471 mightierH6099 and greaterH7227 than they.H4480

15: So I turnedH6437 and came downH3381 fromH4480 the mountain,H2022 and the mountainH2022 burnedH1197 with fire,H0784 and twoH8147 the tabletsH3871 of the covenant [were]H1285 inH5921 twoH8147 my hands.H3027

16: And I looked,H7200 and behold,H2009 you had sinnedH2398 against YahwehH3068 your God,H0430 had madeH6213 a calf-H5695 moldedH4541 You had turned asideH5493 quicklyH4118 fromH4480 the wayH1870 whichH0834 had commandedH6680 YahwehH3068 you.H0853

17: And I tookH8610 twoH8147 the tablets,H3871 and threw themH7993 outH5921 of twoH8147 my hands,H3027 and broke themH7665 before your eyes.H5869

18: And I fell downH5307 beforeH6440 Yahweh,H3068 as at the first,H7223 fortyH0705 daysH3117 and fortyH0705 nights-H3915 bread,H3899 neitherH3808 I ateH0398 and water,H4325 norH3808 drankH8354 becauseH5921 of allH3605 your sinH2403 whichH0834 you committed,H2398 in doingH6213 wickedlyH7451 in the sightH5869 of Yahweh,H3068 to provoke Him to anger.H3707

19: ForH3588 I was afraidH3025 ofH6440 the angerH0639 and hot displeasure,H2534 with whichH0834 was angryH7107 YahwehH3068 with youH5921 to destroyH8045 youH0853 but listenedH8085 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 alsoH1571 at timeH6471 that.H1931

20: And with AaronH0175 was angryH0599 YahwehH3068 veryH3966 [and] would have destroyed himH8045 so I prayedH6419 alsoH1571 forH1157 AaronH0175 at timeH6256 that.H1931

21: AndH0853 your sin,H2403 whichH0834 you had made,H6213 -H0853 the calfH5695 I tookH3947 and burnedH8313 itH0853 with fire,H0784 and crushedH3807 itH0853 [and] ground [it]H2912 very small,H3190 untilH5704 thatH0834 it was as fineH1851 as dust-H6083 and I threwH7993 -H0853 its dustH6083 intoH0413 the brookH5158 that descendedH3381 fromH4480 the mountain.H2022

22: And at Taberah,H8404 and Massah,H4532 Kibroth Hattaavah,H6914 provoked to wrathH7107 youH1961 -H0853 Yahweh.H3068

23: And Likewise when sentH7971 YahwehH3068 youH0853 Kadesh BarneaH6947 saying,H0559 go upH5927 and possessH3423 -H0853 the landH0776 whichH0834 I have givenH5414 then you rebelled againstH4784 -H0853 the commandmentH6310 of YahwehH3068 your God,H0430 and not,H3808 you did believeH0539 norH3808 obeyH8085 His voice.H6963

24: RebelliousH4784 You have beenH1961 againstH5973 YahwehH3068 from the dayH3117 that I knewH3045 you.H0853

25: Thus I prostrated myselfH5307 beforeH6440 YahwehH3068 -H0853 fortyH0705 daysH3117 andH0853 fortyH0705 nights,H3915 whichH0834 I kept prostrating myselfH5307 becauseH3588 had saidH0559 YahwehH3068 He would destroyH8045 you.H0853

26: Therefore I prayedH6419 toH0413 Yahweh,H3068 and said,H0559 LordH0136 GODH3068 notH0408 do destroyH7843 Your peopleH5971 and Your inheritance,H5159 whomH0834 You have redeemedH6299 through Your greatness,H1433 whomH0834 You have broughtH3318 out of EgyptH4714 with a handH3027 mighty.H2389

27: RememberH2142 Your servants,H5650 Abraham,H0085 Isaac,H3327 and Jacob-H3290 notH0408 do lookH6437 onH0413 the stubbornnessH7190 of people,H5971 thisH2088 or onH0413 their wickedness,H7562 orH0413 their sin.H2403

28: LestH6435 should say,H0559 the landH0776 from whichH0834 You brought usH3318 in itH8033 because notH1097 was ableH3201 YahwehH3068 to bring themH0935 toH0413 the landH0776 whichH0834 He promisedH1696 and because He hatedH8135 themH0853 He has brought them outH3318 to kill themH4191 in the wilderness.H4057

29: And yet they [are]H1992 Your peopleH5971 and Your inheritance,H5159 whomH0834 You brought outH3318 by Your powerH3581 mightyH1419 and by Your armH2220 outstretched.H5186
