44This is the law that Moses set before the people of Israel.

45These are the testimonies, the statutes, and the rules, which Moses spoke to the people of Israel when they came out of Egypt,

46beyond the Jordan in the valley opposite Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon, whom Moses and the people of Israel defeated when they came out of Egypt.

47And they took possession of his land and the land of Og, the king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, who lived to the east beyond the Jordan;

48from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, as far as Mount Sirion (that is, Hermon),

49together with all the Arabah on the east side of the Jordan as far as the Sea of the Arabah, under the slopes of Pisgah.

1And Moses summoned all Israel and said to them, "Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the rules that I speak in your hearing today, and you shall learn them and be careful to do them.

2The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.

3Not with our fathers did the LORD make this covenant, but with us, who are all of us here alive today.

4The LORD spoke with you face to face at the mountain, out of the midst of the fire,

5while I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to declare to you the word of the LORD. For you were afraid because of the fire, and you did not go up into the mountain. He said:

6"'I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

7"'You shall have no other gods before me.

8"'You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

9You shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

10but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
