Hear now, O Israel, the statutes and ordinances I am teaching you to follow, so that you may live and may enter and take possession of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you.

See, I have taught you statutes and ordinances just as the LORD my God has commanded me, so that you may follow them in the land that you are about to enter and possess.

The day you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, the LORD said to me, “Gather the people before Me to hear My words, so that they may learn to fear Me all the days they live on the earth, and that they may teach them to their children.”

At that time the LORD commanded me to teach you the statutes and ordinances you are to follow in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.

Then Moses summoned all Israel and said to them: Hear, O Israel, the statutes and ordinances that I declare in your hearing this day. Learn them and observe them carefully.

But you stand here with Me, that I may speak to you all the commandments and statutes and ordinances you are to teach them to follow in the land that I am giving them to possess.”

These are the commandments and statutes and ordinances that the LORD your God has instructed me to teach you to follow in the land that you are about to enter and possess,

Teach them to your children, speaking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

And you are to eat a tenth of your grain, new wine, and oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks, in the presence of the LORD your God at the place He will choose as a dwelling for His Name, so that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.

It is to remain with him, and he is to read from it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to fear the LORD his God by carefully observing all the words of this instruction and these statutes.

When you enter the land that the LORD your God is giving you, do not imitate the detestable ways of the nations there.

…so that they cannot teach you to do all the detestable things they do for their gods, and so cause you to sin against the LORD your God.

Assemble the people—men, women, children, and the foreigners within your gates—so that they may listen and learn to fear the LORD your God and to follow carefully all the words of this law.

Then their children who do not know the law will listen and learn to fear the LORD your God, as long as you live in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”

Now therefore, write down for yourselves this song and teach it to the Israelites; have them recite it, so that it may be a witness for Me against them.

So that very day Moses wrote down this song and taught it to the Israelites.

…if only to teach warfare to the subsequent generations of Israel, especially to those who had not known it formerly:

…and he ordered that the sons of Judah be taught the Song of the Bow. It is written in the Book of Jashar:

He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors—valiant men who carried the shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for battle.

Together with their relatives, who were all trained and skillful in the songs of the LORD, they numbered 288.

In the third year of his reign, Jehoshaphat sent his officials Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah to teach in the cities of Judah,

They taught throughout Judah, taking with them the Book of the Law of the LORD. They went throughout the towns of Judah and taught the people.

For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, to practice it, and to teach its statutes and ordinances in Israel.

Can anyone teach knowledge to God, since He judges those on high?

He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

Show me Your ways, O LORD; teach me Your paths.

Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; all day long I wait for You.

He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them His way.

Come, children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, and sinners will return to You.

For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A Miktam of David for instruction. When he fought Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You have rejected us, O God; You have broken us; You have been angry; restore us!

O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.

He who admonishes the nations, does He not discipline? He who teaches man, does He lack knowledge?

Blessed is the man You discipline, O LORD, and teach from Your law,

…but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.

I will praise You with an upright heart when I learn Your righteous judgments.

Blessed are You, O LORD; teach me Your statutes.

I recounted my ways, and You answered me; teach me Your statutes.

The earth is filled with Your loving devotion, O LORD; teach me Your statutes.

Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in Your commandments.

You are good, and You do what is good; teach me Your statutes.

It was good for me to be afflicted, that I might learn Your statutes.

Your hands have made me and fashioned me; give me understanding to learn Your commandments.

I have more insight than all my teachers, for Your testimonies are my meditation.

Accept the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me Your judgments.

Deal with Your servant according to Your loving devotion, and teach me Your statutes.

Make Your face shine upon Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.
