New Testament

Deuteronomy 4:35-44 English Standard Version (ESV)

35. To you it was shown, that you might know that the Lord is God; there is no other besides him.

36. Out of heaven he let you hear his voice, that he might discipline you. And on earth he let you see his great fire, and you heard his words out of the midst of the fire.

37. And because he loved your fathers and chose their offspring after them and brought you out of Egypt with his own presence, by his great power,

38. driving out before you nations greater and mightier than you, to bring you in, to give you their land for an inheritance, as it is this day,

39. know therefore today, and lay it to your heart, that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other.

40. Therefore you shall keep his statutes and his commandments, which I command you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days in the land that the Lord your God is giving you for all time.”

41. Then Moses set apart three cities in the east beyond the Jordan,

42. that the manslayer might flee there, anyone who kills his neighbor unintentionally, without being at enmity with him in time past; he may flee to one of these cities and save his life:

43. Bezer in the wilderness on the tableland for the Reubenites, Ramoth in Gilead for the Gadites, and Golan in Bashan for the Manassites.

44. This is the law that Moses set before the people of Israel.
