Chapter 1

1These are the words that Moshe addressed to all Yisrael on the other side of the Yarden.—Through the wilderness, in the Arabah near Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Di-zahab,

3It was in the fortieth year, on the first day of the eleventh month, that Moshe addressed the Israelites in accordance with the instructions that Hashem had given him for them,

5On the other side of the Yarden, in the land of Moab, Moshe undertook to expound this Teaching. He said:

6Hashem our God spoke to us at Horeb, saying: You have stayed long enough at this mountain.

7Start out and make your way to the hill country of the Amorites and to all their neighbors in the Arabah, the hill country, the Shephelah, the Negev, the seacoast, the land of the Canaanites, and the Lebanon, as far as the Great River, the river Euphrates.

8See, I place the land at your disposal. Go, take possession of the land that Hashem swore to your fathers, Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov, to assign to them and to their heirs after them.

17You shall not be partial in judgment: hear out low and high alike. Fear no man, for judgment is Hashem's. And any matter that is too difficult for you, you shall bring to me and I will hear it.”

19We set out from Horeb and traveled the great and terrible wilderness that you saw, along the road to the hill country of the Amorites, as Hashem our God had commanded us. When we reached Kadesh-barnea,

41You replied to me, saying, “We stand guilty before Hashem. We will go up now and fight, just as Hashem our God commanded us.” And you all girded yourselves with war gear and recklessly started for the hill country.

42But Hashem said to me, “Warn them: Do not go up and do not fight, since I am not in your midst; else you will be routed by your enemies.”

43I spoke to you, but you would not listen; you flouted Hashem's command and willfully marched into the hill country.

44Then the Amorites who lived in those hills came out against you like so many bees and chased you, and they crushed you at Hormah in Seir.

45Again you wept before Hashem; but Hashem would not heed your cry or give ear to you.

46Thus, after you had remained at Kadesh all that long time,
