Now these are the commandments, the statutes
, and the judgments
, which the LORD
your God
commanded
to teach
you, that ye might do
them in the land
whither ye go
to possess
it:
That thou mightest fear the LORD
thy God
, to keep
all his statutes
and his commandments
, which I command
thee, thou, and thy son
, and thy son's
son
, all the days
of thy life
; and that thy days
may be prolonged
.
Hear therefore, O Israel
, and observe
to do
it ; that it may be well
with thee, and that ye may increase
mightily
, as the LORD
God
of thy fathers
hath promised
thee, in the land
that floweth
with milk
and honey
.
Hear, O Israel
: The LORD
our God
is one
LORD
:
And thou shalt love the LORD
thy God
with all thine heart
, and with all thy soul
, and with all thy might
.
And these words, which I command
thee this day
, shall be in thine heart
:
And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children
, and shalt talk
of them when thou sittest
in thine house
, and when thou walkest
by the way
, and when thou liest down
, and when thou risest up
.
And thou shalt bind them for a sign
upon thine hand
, and they shall be as frontlets
between thine eyes
.
And thou shalt write them upon the posts
of thy house
, and on thy gates
.
And it shall be, when the LORD thy God
shall have brought
thee into the land
which he sware
unto thy fathers
, to Abraham
, to Isaac
, and to Jacob
, to give
thee great
and goodly
cities
, which thou buildedst
not,
And houses full
of all good
things , which thou filledst
not, and wells
digged
, which thou diggedst
not, vineyards
and olive trees
, which thou plantedst
not; when thou shalt have eaten
and be full
;
Then beware lest thou forget
the LORD
, which brought thee forth
out of the land
of Egypt
, from the house
of bondage
.
Thou shalt fear the LORD
thy God
, and serve
him, and shalt swear
by his name
.
Ye shall not go after
other
gods
, of the gods
of the people
which are round about
you;
(For the LORD thy God
is a jealous
God
among
you) lest the anger
of the LORD
thy God
be kindled
against thee, and destroy
thee from off the face
of the earth
.
Ye shall not tempt the LORD
your God
, as ye tempted
him in Massah
.
Ye shall diligently keep
the commandments
of the LORD
your God
, and his testimonies
, and his statutes
, which he hath commanded
thee.
And thou shalt do that which is right
and good
in the sight
of the LORD
: that it may be well
with thee, and that thou mayest go in
and possess
the good
land
which the LORD
sware
unto thy fathers
,
To cast out all thine enemies
from before
thee, as the LORD
hath spoken
.
And when thy son asketh
thee in time to come
, saying
, What mean the testimonies
, and the statutes
, and the judgments
, which the LORD
our God
hath commanded
you?
Then thou shalt say unto thy son
, We were Pharaoh's
bondmen
in Egypt
; and the LORD
brought us out
of Egypt
with a mighty
hand
:
And the LORD shewed
signs
and wonders
, great
and sore
, upon Egypt
, upon Pharaoh
, and upon all his household
, before our eyes
:
And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in
, to give
us the land
which he sware
unto our fathers
.
And the LORD commanded
us to do
all these statutes
, to fear
the LORD
our God
, for our good
always
, that he might preserve us alive
, as it is at this day
.
And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe
to do
all these
commandments
before
the LORD
our God
, as he hath commanded
us.
