their sight: for the Lord thy God he himself is thy leader, and will not
leave thee nor forsake thee.
31:7. And Moses called Josue, and said to him before all Israel: Take
courage, and be valiant: for thou shalt bring this people into the land
which the Lord swore he would give to their fathers, and thou shalt
divide it by lot.
31:8. And the Lord who is your leader, he himself will be with thee: he
will not leave thee, nor forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
31:9. And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests the sons
of Levi, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the
ancients of Israel.
31:10. And he commanded them, saying: After seven years, in the year of
remission, in the feast of tabernacles,
31:11. When all Israel come together, to appear in the sight of the Lord

words of this law before all Israel, in their hearing.
31:12. And the people being all assembled together, both men and women,
children and strangers, that are within thy gates: that hearing they may

fear the Lord their God, all the days that they live in the land whither
you are going over the Jordan to possess it.
31:14. And the Lord said to Moses: Behold the days of thy death are

in the entry of the tabernacle.
31:16. And the Lord said to Moses: Behold thou shalt sleep with thy
fathers, and this people rising up will go a fornicating after strange
gods in the land, to which it goeth in to dwell: there will they forsake
me, and will make void the covenant, which I have made with them,
31:17. And my wrath shall be kindled against them in that day: and I

say in that day: In truth it is because God is not with me, that these
evils have found me.
31:18. But I will hide, and cover my face in that day, for all the evils
which they have done, because they have followed strange gods.

Israel: that they may know it by heart, and sing it by mouth, and this
song may be unto me for a testimony among the children of Israel.
31:20. For I will bring them into the land, for which I swore to their
fathers, that floweth with milk and honey. And when they have eaten, and
