5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses undertook to explain this law:
6 The Lord, our God, said to us at Horeb: You have stayed long enough at this mountain.
7 Leave here and go to the hill country of the Amorites and to all the surrounding regions, the Arabah, the mountains, the Shephelah, the Negeb and the seacoast—the land of the Canaanites and the Lebanon as far as the Great River, the Euphrates.
8 See, I have given that land over to you. Go now and possess the land that the Lord swore to your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them.
9 At that time I said to you, “I am unable to carry you by myself.
10 The Lord, your God, has made you numerous, and now you are as numerous as the stars of the heavens.
11 May the Lord, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times over, and bless you as he promised!
