KJV ¹ And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel.

VULC ¹ Abiit itaque Moyses, et locutus est omnia verba hæc ad universum Israël,

KJV ² And he said unto them, I am an hundred and twenty years old this day; I can no more go out and come in: also the LORD hath said unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.

VULC ² et dixit ad eos : Centum viginti annorum sum hodie ; non possum ultra egredi et ingredi, præsertim cum et Dominus dixerit mihi : Non transibis Jordanem istum.

KJV ³ The LORD thy God, he will go over before thee, and he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt possess them: and Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as the LORD hath said.

VULC ³ Dominus ergo Deus tuus transibit ante te : ipse delebit omnes gentes has in conspectu tuo, et possidebis eas : et Josue iste transibit ante te, sicut locutus est Dominus.

KJV ⁴ And the LORD shall do unto them as he did to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorites, and unto the land of them, whom he destroyed.

VULC ⁴ Facietque Dominus eis sicut fecit Sehon et Og regibus Amorrhæorum, et terræ eorum, delebitque eos.

KJV ⁵ And the LORD shall give them up before your face, that ye may do unto them according unto all the commandments which I have commanded you.

VULC ⁵ Cum ergo et hos tradiderit vobis, similiter facietis eis, sicut præcepi vobis.

KJV ⁶ Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

VULC ⁶ Viriliter agite, et confortamini : nolite timere, nec paveatis ad conspectum eorum : quia Dominus Deus tuus ipse est ductor tuus, et non dimittet, nec derelinquet te.

KJV ⁷ And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

VULC ⁷ Vocavitque Moyses Josue, et dixit ei coram omni Israël : Confortare, et esto robustus : tu enim introduces populum istum in terram, quam daturum se patribus eorum juravit Dominus, et tu eam sorte divides.

KJV ⁸ And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

VULC ⁸ Et Dominus qui ductor est vester, ipse erit tecum : non dimittet, nec derelinquet te : noli timere, nec paveas.

KJV ⁹ And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel.

VULC ⁹ Scripsit itaque Moyses legem hanc, et tradidit eam sacerdotibus filiis Levi, qui portabant arcam fœderis Domini, et cunctis senioribus Israël.

KJV ¹⁰ And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

VULC ¹⁰ Præcepitque eis, dicens : Post septem annos, anno remissionis, in solemnitate tabernaculorum,

KJV ¹¹ When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.

VULC ¹¹ convenientibus cunctis ex Israël, ut appareant in conspectu Domini Dei tui in loco quem elegerit Dominus, leges verba legis hujus coram omni Israël, audientibus eis,

KJV ¹² Gather the people together, men and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the LORD your God, and observe to do all the words of this law:

VULC ¹² et in unum omni populo congregato, tam viris quam mulieribus, parvulis, et advenis, qui sunt intra portas tuas : ut audientes discant, et timeant Dominum Deum vestrum, et custodiant, impleantque omnes sermones legis hujus.

KJV ¹³ And that their children, which have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear the LORD your God, as long as ye live in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.

VULC ¹³ Filii quoque eorum qui nunc ignorant, ut audire possint, et timeant Dominum Deum suum cunctis diebus quibus versantur in terra, ad quam vos, Jordane transmisso, pergitis obtinendam.

KJV ¹⁴ And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tabernacle of the congregation.

VULC ¹⁴ Et ait Dominus ad Moysen : Ecce prope sunt dies mortis tuæ : voca Josue, et state in tabernaculo testimonii, ut præcipiam ei. Abierunt ergo Moyses et Josue, et steterunt in tabernaculo testimonii :

KJV ¹⁵ And the LORD appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of a cloud: and the pillar of the cloud stood over the door of the tabernacle.

VULC ¹⁵ apparuitque Dominus ibi in columna nubis, quæ stetit in introitu tabernaculi.

KJV ¹⁶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.

VULC ¹⁶ Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen : Ecce tu dormies cum patribus tuis, et populus iste consurgens fornicabitur post deos alienos in terra, ad quam ingreditur ut habitet in ea : ibi derelinquet me, et irritum faciet fœdus, quod pepigi cum eo.

KJV ¹⁷ Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us?

VULC ¹⁷ Et irascetur furor meus contra eum in die illo : et derelinquam eum, et abscondam faciem meam ab eo, et erit in devorationem : invenient eum omnia mala et afflictiones, ita ut dicat in illo die : Vere quia non est Deus mecum, invenerunt me hæc mala.

KJV ¹⁸ And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.

VULC ¹⁸ Ego autem abscondam, et celabo faciem meam in die illo propter omnia mala, quæ fecit, quia secutus est deos alienos.

KJV ¹⁹ Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.

VULC ¹⁹ Nunc itaque scribite vobis canticum istud, et docete filios Israël : ut memoriter teneant, et ore decantent, et sit mihi carmen istud pro testimonio inter filios Israël.

KJV ²⁰ For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.

VULC ²⁰ Introducam enim eum in terram, pro qua juravi patribus ejus, lacte et melle manantem. Cumque comederint, et saturati, crassique fuerint, avertentur ad deos alienos, et servient eis : detrahentque mihi, et irritum facient pactum meum.

KJV ²¹ And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they go about, even now, before I have brought them into the land which I sware.

VULC ²¹ Postquam invenerint eum mala multa et afflictiones, respondebit ei canticum istud pro testimonio, quod nulla delebit oblivio ex ore seminis sui. Scio enim cogitationes ejus, quæ facturus sit hodie, antequam introducam eum in terram, quam ei pollicitus sum.

KJV ²² Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel.

VULC ²² Scripsit ergo Moyses canticum, et docuit filios Israël.

KJV ²³ And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee.

VULC ²³ Præcepitque Dominus Josue filio Nun, et ait : Confortare, et esto robustus : tu enim introduces filios Israël in terram, quam pollicitus sum, et ego ero tecum.

KJV ²⁴ And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,

VULC ²⁴ Postquam ergo scripsit Moyses verba legis hujus in volumine, atque complevit,

KJV ²⁵ That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying,

VULC ²⁵ præcepit Levitis, qui portabant arcam fœderis Domini, dicens :

KJV ²⁶ Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.

VULC ²⁶ Tollite librum istum, et ponite eum in latere arcæ fœderis Domini Dei vestri : ut sit ibi contra te in testimonium.

KJV ²⁷ For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?

VULC ²⁷ Ego enim scio contentionem tuam, et cervicem tuam durissimam. Adhuc vivente me et ingrediente vobiscum, semper contentiose egistis contra Dominum : quanto magis cum mortuus fuero ?

KJV ²⁸ Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record against them.

VULC ²⁸ Congregate ad me omnes majores natu per tribus vestras, atque doctores, et loquar audientibus eis sermones istos, et invocabo contra eos cælum et terram.

KJV ²⁹ For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.

VULC ²⁹ Novi enim quod post mortem meam inique agetis, et declinabitis cito de via, quam præcepi vobis : et occurrent vobis mala in extremo tempore, quando feceritis malum in conspectu Domini, ut irritetis eum per opera manuum vestrarum.

KJV ³⁰ And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.

VULC ³⁰ Locutus est ergo Moyses, audiente universo cœtu Israël, verba carminis hujus, et ad finem usque complevit.
