* Now this is the commandment , the statutes , and the ordinances , which LORD your God commanded to teach you , that ye might do them in the land where ye go over to possess it , * that thou might fear 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 LORD , the God of thy fathers , has promised to thee , in a land flowing with milk and honey . * Hear , O Israel : LORD our God is one LORD . * And thou shall love LORD thy God with all thy heart , and with all thy soul , and with all thy might . * And these words , which I command thee this day , shall be upon thy heart . * And thou shall teach them diligently to thy sons , and shall talk of them when thou sit in thy house , and when thou walk by the way , and when thou lay down , and when thou rise up . * And thou shall bind them for a sign upon thy hand , and they shall be for frontlets between thine eyes . * And thou shall write them upon the door-posts of thy house , and upon thy gates . * And it shall be , when LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land which he swore to thy fathers , to Abraham , to Isaac , and to Jacob , to give thee , great and goodly cities , which thou did not build , * and houses full of all good things , which thou did not fill , and cisterns hewn out , which thou did not hew , vineyards and olive trees , which thou did not plant , and thou shall eat and be full , * then beware lest thou forget LORD , who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt , out of the house of bondage . * Thou shall fear LORD thy God , and him thou shall serve , and shall swear by his name . * Ye shall not go after other gods , of the gods of the peoples that are round about you , * for LORD thy God in the midst of thee is a jealous God , lest the anger of LORD thy God be kindled against thee , and he destroy thee from off the face of the earth . * Ye shall not challenge LORD your God , as ye challenged him in Massah . * Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of LORD your God , and his testimonies , and his statutes , which he has commanded thee . * And thou shall do that which is right and good in the sight of LORD , that it may be well with thee , and that thou may go in and possess the good land which LORD swore to thy fathers , * to thrust out all thine enemies from before thee , as LORD has spoken . * When thy son asks thee in time to come , saying , What is the meaning of the testimonies , and the statutes , and the ordinances , which LORD our God has commanded you ? * Then thou shall say to thy son , We were Pharaoh 's bondmen in Egypt , and LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand . * And LORD showed signs and wonders , great and grievous , upon Egypt , upon Pharaoh , and upon all his house , before our eyes . * And he brought us out from there that he might bring us in to give us the land which he swore to our fathers . * And LORD commanded us to do all these statutes , to fear LORD our God for our good always , that he might preserve us alive as at this day . * And it shall be righteousness to us , if we observe to do all this commandment before LORD our God as he has commanded us .
