God Gave Moses 2 New Tablets with the 10 Commandments |
Deuteronomy 10:1-22 Deuteronomy the Fifth Book of Moses |
At that time, the Lord said to me, [Cut out for] you 2 [tablets] of stone like the 1st [ones] & come up to Me in Mount [Hore a.k.a. Sinai] & make an ark of wood. I will write on the [tablets] the words that were on the 1st [tablets that] you broke & you shall put them in the ark. |
I made an ark of shittim wood & [cut] 2 [tablets] of stone like the 1st & I went up into the [mountain with] the 2 [tablets in my [hands.] |
[The Lord God] wrote the 10 Commandments on the [tablets,] according to the 1st writing, [when] the Lord [spoke] to you in the [mountain] out of the midst of the fire [on] the day of the assembly. |
The Lord gave them to me. I turned & came down from the [mountain] & put the [tablets] in the ark [that] I had made. They [are] there, as the Lord commanded me. |
The children [people] of Israel [journeyed] from Beer Roth of the children [people] of Jaakan to Mosera. There Aaron died & he was buried there. Eleazar, his son, [served] in the [high] priest’s [position in Aaron’s] place. |
From [there] they journey to Gudgodah & [from there] to Jot Bath, a land of rivers of water. At that time, the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to [carry] the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord & to stand before the Lord to minister to Him & to bless His Name to this day. |
[Therefore, the tribe of] Levi [had] no [portion] nor inheritance with his brethren. The Lord is His inheritance, as the Lord your God promised him. I stayed in the [mountain like] the 1st time, 40 days & 40 nights & the Lord [listened] to me, at that time also & the Lord wouldn’t destroy you. |
The Lord said to me, Arise & take your journey [in front of] the people, [so] they may go in & possess the land, [that] I [swore] to their [forefathers] to give to them. Now, Israel, what [does] the Lord your God require of you, but to fear [respect] the Lord your God; |
[And to] walk in all His ways & to love Him & to serve the Lord your God with all your heart & with all your soul; to keep the commandments of the Lord & His [mandates, that] I command you this day for your good? |
[Look,] the heaven & the [highest heavens belong to the Lord] your God & also, the earth & all [that’s in it.] The Lord only [delighted] in your [forefathers] & [loved] them & He chose you, [their descendants] after them, as it is [today.] |
Therefore, circumcise the foreskin of your [hearts] & [no longer be] stiff-necked [stubborn people.] For the Lord your God is God of gods & Lord of lords, a great God, mighty & terrible [awesome, Who doesn’t show partiality to people] nor take [bribes.] |
[The Lord God] does [carry out justice for] the fatherless & widow. [He loves] the stranger, [by] giving him food & [clothing.] Therefore, love the stranger, [because] you were [once] strangers in the land of Egypt. |
You shall fear [respect] the Lord your God. You shall serve Him & you shall [hold tight] to Him & swear [oaths] by His Name. |
Your [forefathers] went down into Egypt with 70 [people.] Now the Lord your God [has] made you [like] the stars of heaven [in] multitude. |
