I call the heavens and the earth to witness against you this day, that you shall quickly die and perish from off the land which you are crossing over the Jordan to possess; you shall not prolong your days in it, but shall be destroyed to annihilation.

I call Heaven and earth to bear witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that both you and your seed may live;

Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears and call Heaven and earth to testify against them.

i1 [To the Chief Musician. A Psalm for the sons of Korah.] i0 par Hear this, all you peoples; give ear, all you inhabitants of the world;

Give heed, O heavens, and hear, O earth! For Jehovah has spoken: I have nourished and brought up children, but they have rebelled against Me.

Be appalled, O heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid; be greatly desolated, says Jehovah.

Hear, O earth; behold, I will bring evil on this people, the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not heeded My Words, nor My Law, but rejected it.

O earth, earth, earth, hear the Word of Jehovah!
