摩西之歌
1“诸天啊，请留心听；
大地啊，请听我说。
2愿我的教导如雨降下，
愿我的话语如露滴落，
像水滴滋润嫩草，
像甘霖浇灌草木。
3我要宣扬耶和华的名，
你们要颂赞我们上帝的伟大。
4“祂是磐石，
祂的作为完美，
祂按公义行事，
祂信实可靠，公平正直。
5狡诈、堕落的一代啊，
你们却对祂不忠，行事败坏，
不配做祂的儿女。
6愚昧无知的人啊，
你们就这样报答耶和华吗？
祂是你们的父，你们的创造主，
祂创造了你们，塑造了你们。
7“要回顾往昔，追溯历史；
问你们的父亲，
他们必回答你们；
问你们的长者，
他们必告诉你们。
8当初，至高者赐万国产业，
把人类分开，
祂依照天使32:8 “天使”希伯来文是“以色列的儿子”。的数目，
为万族定疆界。
9但以色列人属于耶和华，
雅各是祂的产业。
10“在荒凉的旷野，
在野兽吼叫的荒野，
耶和华找到他们，
庇护他们，看顾他们，
保护他们如同保护眼中的瞳仁，
11又如老鹰搅动窝巢，
盘旋在雏鹰之上，展开双翼，
背着雏鹰飞翔。
12耶和华独自带领他们，
身边没有外族神明。
13耶和华使他们驰骋在大地的高处，
吃田间的五谷，
磐石中的蜂蜜，
石头地产的油；
14吃牛酪和羊奶，
肥美的羔羊，
巴珊的绵羊和山羊，
上好的麦子；
喝葡萄汁酿的酒。
15“但耶书仑32:15 “耶书仑”是以色列的昵称。吃饱喝足，
养肥长壮后，就得意忘形，
背弃造他们的上帝，
藐视救他们的磐石。
16他们拜外族的神明，令祂愤恨；
行可憎之事，惹祂发怒。
17他们祭拜的不是真神，
而是鬼魔，
是他们素不认识的新神明，
是他们祖先所不敬畏的。
18他们轻视生他们的磐石，
忘记养他们的上帝。
19“耶和华看见祂儿女的恶行，
就愤然厌弃他们，
20说，‘这堕落的子民，
不忠的儿女！
我要掩面不理他们，
看他们的结局如何。
21他们拜假神，让我愤恨；
供虚无之物，惹我发怒。
我要借无名之民挑起他们的嫉妒，
用愚昧的国民激起他们的怒气。
22我的怒火已经点燃，
要烧到阴间的尽头，
吞灭大地及其出产，
甚至烧毁山的根基。
23“‘我要使灾祸连连临到他们，
我的箭都射向他们。
24他们必饱受饥荒之苦，
被瘟疫和灾祸吞噬，
被猛兽和毒蛇袭击。
25外有刀剑杀戮，
内有恐惧笼罩，
少男、少女、婴儿、
老人无一幸免。
26我本要消灭他们，
使世人忘记他们；
27但我不愿让敌人夸口，
宣称这是他们的胜利，
而非我的作为。’
28“以色列人愚昧无知，毫无见识。
29如果他们有智慧，
就能明白这一切、
知道自己的结局。
30若不是他们的磐石卖掉他们，
若不是耶和华抛弃他们，
一人怎能赶散他们千人？
二人怎能击溃他们万人？
31我们的敌人也承认他们的磐石不如我们的磐石。
32他们犹如来自所多玛、
长在蛾摩拉的葡萄树，
结的葡萄粒粒有毒，串串苦涩；
33酿的酒如蛇的毒液，
如眼镜蛇的毒液。
34“祂说，‘我把这一切积存起来，
封在我的仓库里。
35申冤在我，我必报应，
到时候他们必站不住脚，
他们遭祸的日子近了，
他们的末日来了。’
36“耶和华见自己的子民力量衰竭，
奴隶和自由人所剩无几，
必为他们主持公道，
怜悯祂的仆人。
37祂必说，‘你们的神明在哪里？
庇护你们的磐石在哪里？
38它们吃你们祭牲的脂肪，
喝你们的奠酒。
让它们起来帮助你们，
庇护你们吧！
39“‘你们要知道，
唯有我是上帝；
除我之外，别无他神。
我掌管生死，我打伤、我医治；
无人能逃出我的掌心。
40我向天伸手，
凭我的永恒起誓，
41我要磨快闪亮的剑，
主持公道，报应仇敌，
惩罚恨我的人。
42我要使我的箭饱饮鲜血，
被杀被掳之人的血；
我的剑要吞噬人肉，
敌人将领的肉。’
43“列邦啊，
你们当与祂的子民一同欢乐！
因为祂要为自己的仆人报血仇，
报应祂的仇敌，
洁净祂的土地和子民。”
44摩西和嫩的儿子约书亚把这首诗歌读给会众听。
摩西的遗嘱
45读完后，摩西又对以色列人说： 46“要谨记我今天警告你们的话，要吩咐你们的子孙谨遵这律法上的话。 47这律法不是空话，而是你们的生命。你们若遵守这律法，就必长住在约旦河对岸你们将要占领的土地上。”
预言摩西的死
48当天，耶和华对摩西说： 49“你去耶利哥对面的摩押，登上亚巴琳山区的尼波山，观看我要赐给以色列人作产业的迦南。 50之后，你会死在山上，归到你祖先那里，如亚伦在何珥山离世归祖一样。 51因为在荀旷野，在加低斯的米利巴泉旁，你和亚伦对我不忠，没有在以色列人中尊我为圣。 52所以，你只能远远地观看我要赐给以色列人的土地，却不能进去。”
1Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. 2My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: 3Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. 4He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. 5They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.32.5 They have…: Heb. He hath corrupted to himself32.5 their…: or, that they are not his children, that is their blot 6Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he thy father that hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?
7¶ Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.32.7 many…: Heb. generation and generation 8When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel. 9For the LORD’s portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.32.9 lot: Heb. cord 10He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.32.10 led: or, compassed 11As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him. 13He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; 14Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
15¶ But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation. 16They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. 17They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.32.17 not to…: or, which were not God 18Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
19And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.32.19 abhorred: or, despised 20And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith. 21They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. 22For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.32.22 shall burn: or, hath burned32.22 shall consume: or, hath consumed 23I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them. 24They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.32.24 heat: Heb. coals 25The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.32.25 within: Heb. from the chambers32.25 destroy: Heb. bereave
26I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men: 27Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.32.27 Our…: or, Our high hand, and not the LORD hath done 28For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them. 29O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end! 30How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up? 31For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges. 32For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:32.32 of the vine: or, worse than the vine 33Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps. 34Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures? 35To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste. 36For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.32.36 power: Heb. hand 37And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted, 38Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.32.38 your…: Heb. an hiding for you
39See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. 40For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever. 41If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me. 42I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy. 43Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.32.43 Rejoice…: or, Praise his people, ye nations: or, Sing ye
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.32.44 Hoshea: or, Joshua 45And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel: 46And 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. 47For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it. 48And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying, 49Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession: 50And 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: 51Because 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.32.51 Meribah-Kadesh: or, strife at Kadesh 52Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
