Remember the Lord Your God
1“Every commandment which I command you today you must 8:1 observe to dobe careful to observe, that you may live and multiply,8:1 increase in number and go in and possess the land of which the Lord 8:1 promisedswore to your fathers.
2And you shall remember that the Lord your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.
3So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.
4Your garments did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years.
5You should 8:5 considerknow in your heart that as a man chastens his son, so the Lord your God chastens you.
6“Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to fear Him.
7For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills;
8a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey;
9a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper.
10When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land which He has given you.
11“Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His judgments, and His statutes which I command you today,
12lest—when you have eaten and are 8:12 satisfiedfull, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them;
13and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold are 8:13 increasedmultiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;
14when your heart 8:14 becomes proudis lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;
15who led you through that great and terrible wilderness, in which were fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty land where there was no water; who brought water for you out of the flinty rock;
16who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and that He might test you, to do you good in the end—
17then you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth.’
18“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may 8:18 confirmestablish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.
19Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.
20As the nations which the Lord destroys before you, so you shall perish, because you would not be obedient to the voice of the Lord your God.
