Deuteronomy 10

CHAPTER 10 The Second Set of Tablets

1 In that time the lord said to me, You dress stone for yourself -- two tablets of stone as the first! And ascend to me into the mountain, and make for yourself [²ark ¹a wooden]! 2 And I will write upon the tablets the words which were on the [²tablets ¹first] which you broke, and you shall put them into the ark. 3 And I made the ark from out of [²wood ¹incorruptible]. And I dressed the two [²tablets ¹stone] as the first. And I ascended into the mountain, and the two tablets were upon [²two ³hands ¹my]. 4 And he wrote upon the tablets according to the [²writing ¹first], the ten words which the lord spoke to you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the gathering. And [²gave ³them ¹the lord] to me. 5 And turning, I went down from the mountain, and I put the tablets into the ark which I made; and they were there as [²gave charge ³to me ¹the lord]. 6 And the sons of Israel departed from Beeroth of the sons of Jaakin to Mosera; there Aaron died, and he was entombed there. And [³officiated as priest ¹Eleazar ²his son] instead of him. 7 From there they departed into Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jobath, a land of rushing streams of waters. 8 In that time the lord separated the tribe of Levi to lift the ark of the covenant of the lord, to stand before the lord to officiate, and to invoke upon his name until this day. 9 On account of this there is not to the Levites a portion or lot among their brethren. The lord himself is his lot, as [³told ⁴them ¹the lord ²your God]. 10 And I stayed in the mountain forty days and forty nights; and the lord listened to me, And in that time [²did not ³want ¹the lord] to utterly destroy you. 11 And the lord said to me, Proceed, depart before this people, and let them enter and inherit the land! which I swore by an oath to their fathers to give to them. 12 And now, Israel, what does the lord your God ask from you, but only to fear the lord your God, and to go in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the lord your God from [²entire ³heart ¹your], and from [²entire ³soul ¹your]; 13 to guard the commandments of the lord your God, and his ordinances, as many as I give charge to you today, that [²good ³to you ¹it might be]. 14 Behold, [³is of the lord ⁴your God ¹the ²heaven], and the heaven of the heaven, the earth and all as much as is in it. 15 Except concerning your fathers, the lord preferred to love them, and he chose their seed after them -- you, from all the nations according to this day. 16 And you shall circumcise the hardness of your heart, and [³your neck ¹you shall not ²harden] any longer. 17 For the lord your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the [⁶God ¹great ²and ³strong ⁴and ⁵fearful] who does not marvel over a person, nor should take a bribe; 18 the one executing judgment for a foreigner, and orphan, and widow; and he loves the foreigner so as to give to him bread and a garment. 19 And you shall love the foreigner; [³foreigners ¹for ²you were] in the land of Egypt. 20 The lord your God you shall fear, and to him you shall serve, and to him you shall cleave, and upon his name you shall swear by an oath. 21 He is your boasting, and he is your God, who did among you the great and the honorable things, these things which [²beheld ¹your eyes]. 22 With seventy souls [²went down ¹your fathers] into Egypt. But now [³made ⁴you ¹the lord ²your God] as the stars of the heaven in multitude.
