- The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:
- Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.
- Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.
- And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:
- The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

- The LORD our God said to us at Horeb, "You have stayed long enough at this mountain.
- Break camp and advance into the hill country of the Amorites; go to all the neighboring peoples in the Arabah, in the mountains, in the western foothills, in the Negev and along the coast, to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates.
- See, I have given you this land. Go in and take possession of the land that the LORD swore he would give to your fathers--to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob--and to their descendants after them."
- At that time I said to you, "You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone.
- The LORD your God has increased your numbers so that today you are as many as the stars in the sky.
