render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, andto his people.
44 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and
Hoshea the son of Nun.
45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this
day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
47 For it isnot a vain thing for you; because it isyour life: and through this thing ye shall
prolong yourdays in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
48 And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
49 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, untomount Nebo, which isin the land of Moab, that
isover against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel
for a possession:
50 And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy
brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of
Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the
children of Israel.
52 Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I
give the children of Israel.

before his death.

one
shall receive of thy words.

his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.
10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee,
and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.

and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
