*
Now therefore stand still ,
that I may reason with you before the LORD of all the righteous acts of the LORD ,
which he did to you and to your fathers .
*
When Jacob was come into Egypt ,
and your fathers cried unto the LORD ,
then the LORD sent Moses and Aaron ,
which brought forth your fathers out of Egypt ,
and made them dwell in this place .
*
And when they forgat the LORD their God ,
he sold them into the hand of Sisera ,
captain of the host of Hazor ,
and into the hand of the Philistines ,
and into the hand of the king of Moab Mow #
ab #,
and they fought against them .
*
And they cried unto the LORD ,
and said ,
We have sinned ,
because we have forsaken the LORD ,
and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth :
but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies ,
and we will serve thee .

and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side ,
and ye dwelled safe .
*
And when ye saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you ,
ye said unto me ,
Nay ;
but a king shall reign over us :
when the LORD your God was your king .
*
Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen ,
and whom ye have desired !
and ,
behold ,
the LORD hath set a king over you .
*
If ye will fear the LORD ,
and serve him ,
and obey his voice ,
and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD ,
then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the LORD your God :
*
But if ye will not obey the voice of the LORD ,
but rebel against the commandment of the LORD ,
then shall the hand of the LORD be against you ,
as it was against your fathers .
