¹ 你们住撒玛利亚山如巴珊母牛的啊，当听我的话─你们欺负贫寒的，压碎穷乏的，对家主说：拿酒来，我们喝罢！

² 主耶和华指着自己的圣洁起誓说：日子快到，人必用钩子将你们钩去，用鱼钩将你们馀剩的钩去。

³ 你们各人必从破口直往前行，投入哈门。这是耶和华说的。

⁴ 以色列人哪，任你们往伯特利去犯罪，到吉甲加增罪过；每日早晨献上你们的祭物，每三日奉上你们的十分之一。

⁵ 任你们献有酵的感谢祭，把甘心祭宣传报告给众人，因为是你们所喜爱的。这是主耶和华说的。

⁶ 我使你们在一切城中牙齿乾净，在你们各处粮食缺乏，你们仍不归向我。这是耶和华说的。

⁷ 在收割的前三月，我使雨停止，不降在你们那里；我降雨在这城，不降雨在那城；这块地有雨，那块地无雨；无雨的就枯乾了。

⁸ 这样，两三城的人凑到一城去找水，却喝不足；你们仍不归向我。这是耶和华说的。

⁹ 我以旱风、霉烂攻击你们，你们园中许多菜蔬、葡萄树、无花果树、橄榄树都被剪虫所吃；你们仍不归向我。这是耶和华说的。

¹⁰ 我降瘟疫在你们中间，像在埃及一样；用刀杀戮你们的少年人，使你们的马匹被掳掠，营中尸首的臭气扑鼻；你们仍不归向我。这是耶和华说的。

¹¹ 我倾覆你们中间的城邑，如同我从前倾覆所多玛、蛾摩拉一样，使你们好像从火中抽出来的一根柴；你们仍不归向我。这是耶和华说的。

¹² 以色列啊，我必向你如此行；以色列啊，我既这样行，你当预备迎见你的神。

¹³ 那创山、造风、将心意指示人、使晨光变为幽暗、脚踏在地之高处的，他的名是耶和华─万军之神。

¹ Therefore you shall love Yahweh your God, and keep his instructions, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.

² Know this day: for I don't speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Yahweh your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,

³ and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;

⁴ and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how Yahweh has destroyed them to this day;

⁵ and what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place;

⁶ and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:

⁷ but your eyes have seen all the great work of Yahweh which he did.

⁸ Therefore you shall keep all the commandment which I command you this day, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;

⁹ and that you may prolong your days in the land, which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give to them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.

¹⁰ For the land, where you go in to possess it, isn't as the land of Egypt, that you came out from, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs;

¹¹ but the land, where you go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, [and] drinks water of the rain of the sky,

¹² a land which Yahweh your God cares for: the eyes of Yahweh your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.

¹³ It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love Yahweh your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

¹⁴ that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil.

¹⁵ I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.

¹⁶ Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;

¹⁷ and the anger of Yahweh be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which Yahweh gives you.

¹⁸ Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.

¹⁹ You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.

²⁰ You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;

²¹ that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.

²² For if you shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him;

²³ then will Yahweh drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.

²⁴ Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the hinder sea shall be your border.

²⁵ No man shall be able to stand before you: Yahweh your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread on, as he has spoken to you.

²⁶ Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:

²⁷ the blessing, if you shall listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, which I command you this day;

²⁸ and the curse, if you shall not listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.

²⁹ It shall happen, when Yahweh your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.

³⁰ Aren't they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?

³¹ For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Yahweh your God gives you, and you shall possess it, and dwell therein.

³² You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
