The World English Bible (WEB): Deuteronomy
Book 05 Deuteronomy 001:001 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab. 001:002 It is eleven days' [journey] from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea. 001:003 It happened in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that Yahweh had given him in commandment to them; 001:004 after he had struck Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth, at Edrei. 001:005 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, 001:006 Yahweh our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, You have lived long enough in this mountain: 001:007 turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites, and to all [the places] near there, in the Arabah, in the hill country, and in the lowland, and in the South, and by the seashore, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon,
The mare seemed to know that something unusual was afoot. Perhaps
some nervous tensity of her rider made itself felt, perhaps with
equine sagacity she had understood from the first the nature of
this scouting expedition. Dave was inclined to believe the latter-
-he had often averred that Bessie Belle knew quite as much as or
more than he. At any rate she picked her way with admirable care,
her hoofs made almost no sound upon the wet soil; only the
complaint of the saddle leathers or the swish of a wet branch rose
above the steady patter of the raindrops. It was not necessary to
guide her; she selected the openings of her own free will, her
small, sharp ears were alert, and her eyes searched the glades
intently.
Dave smiled at this excess of caution and stroked Bessie Belle's
wet neck encouragingly, whereupon she turned her head and it
seemed to the rider that she nodded her complete understanding.
Law could have kissed her.
