DE-6:1  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:

DE-6:2  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.

DE-6:3  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.

DE-6:4  Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God [is] one LORD:

DE-6:5  And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine

heart, and with

all thy soul, and with all thy might.

DE-6:6  And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be

in thine

heart:

DE-6:7  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.

DE-6:8  And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and

they shall be

as frontlets between thine eyes.

DE-6:9  And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house,

and on thy

gates.

DE-6:10  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,

DE-6:11  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;

DE-6:12  [Then] beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought

thee forth out

of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

DE-6:13  Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and

shalt swear by

his name.

DE-6:14  Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the

people which

[are] round about you;

DE-6:15  (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.

DE-6:16  Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted

[him] in Massah.

DE-6:17  Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD

your God, and

his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.

DE-6:18  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,

DE-6:19  To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the

LORD hath

spoken.

DE-6:20  [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?

DE-6:21  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:

DE-6:22  And the LORD showed signs and wonders, great and sore,

upon Egypt,

upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes:

DE-6:23  And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring

us in, to give

us the land which he sware unto our fathers.

DE-6:24  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.

DE-6:25  And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do

all these

commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.
