28Hear these words, O Israel.
29Our fathers at the beginning were strangers in Egypt, from whence they were delivered:
30And received the law of life, which they kept not, which ye also have transgressed after them.
31Then was the land, even the land of Sion, parted among you by lot: but your fathers, and ye yourselves, have done unrighteousness, and have not kept the ways which the Highest commanded you.
