1 Hear, O Israel: Thou [art] to pass over JordanMeaning shortly.this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,

2 A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and [of whom] thou hastBy the report of the spies. (Num_13:26).heard [say], Who can stand before the children of Anak!

3 Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God [is] he whichTo guide you and govern you.goeth over before thee; [as] a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the LORD hath said unto thee.

4 Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For myMan by himself deserves nothing but God's anger, and if God spares anyone it comes from his great mercy.righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee.

5 For thou entrest not to inherite their lande for thy righteousnesse, or for thy vpright heart: but for the wickednesse of those nations, the Lord thy God doth cast them out before thee, and that he might performe the worde which the Lord thy God sware vnto thy fathers, Abraham, Izhak, and Iacob.

6 Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou [art] aLike stubborn oxen who will not endure their masters yoke.stiffnecked people.

7 Remember, [and] forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness:He proves by the length of time, that their rebellion was great and intolerable.from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD.

8 Also in Horeb ye prouoked the Lorde to anger so that the Lord was wroth with you, euen to destroy you.

9 When I was gone vp into the mount, to receiue the tables of stone, the tables, I say, of the couenant, which the Lord made with you: and I abode in the mount fourtie daies & fourtie nights, and I neither ate bread nor yet dranke water:

10 And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with theThat is, miraculously, and not by the hand of men.finger of God; and on them [was written] according to all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.

11 And when the fourtie dayes and fourtie nightes were ended, the Lorde gaue me the two tables of stone, the tables, I say, of the couenant.

12 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt haveAs soon as man declines from the obedience of God, his ways are corrupt.corrupted [themselves]; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.

13 Furthermore, the Lord spake vnto me, saying, I haue seene this people, and beholde, it is a stifnecked people.

14 Demonstrating that the prayers of the faithful are a bar to restrain God's anger so that he does not consume all.Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.

15 So I returned, and came downe from the Mount (and the Mount burnt with fire, and ye two Tables of the couenant were in my two handes)

16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your God, [and] had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of theThat is, from the Law: in which he declares what the cause of our punishment is.way which the LORD had commanded you.

17 Therefore I tooke the two Tables, and cast them out of my two handes, and brake them before your eyes.

18 And I fell downe before the Lorde, fourtie dayes, and fourtie nightes, as before: I neither ate bread nor dranke water, because of al your sinnes, which ye had committed, in doing wickedly in the sight of the Lorde, in that ye prouoked him vnto wrath.

19 (For I was afraide of the wrath and indignation, wherewith the Lord was mooued against you, euen to destroy you) yet the Lord heard me at that time also.

20 And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to haveBy which he shows the danger they are in who have authority and do not resist wickedness.destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.

21 And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, [and] ground [it] very small, [even] until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of theHoreb, or Sinai.mount.

22 Also in Taberah, & in Massah and in Kibrothhattaauah ye prouoked ye Lord to anger.

23 Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then yeAt the return of the spies.rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.

24 Ye haue bene rebellious vnto the Lorde, since the day that I knewe you.

25 Thus I fell down before the LORDBy which is signified that God requires earnest continuance in prayer.forty days and forty nights, as I fell down [at the first]; because the LORD had said he would destroy you.

26 And I prayed vnto the Lorde, and saide, O Lord God, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatnesse, whom thou hast brought out of Egypt by a mightie hand.

27 The godly in their prayers ground on God's promise, and confess their sins.Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:

28 Lest the countrey, whence thou broughtest them, say, Because ye Lord was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, or because he hated them, he caried them out, to slay them in the wildernesse.

29 Yet they are thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mightie power, and by thy stretched out arme.
