1 “So|strong="H0853" you|strong="H3605" must|strong="H0853" love|strong="H0157" the|strong="H3605" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430". You|strong="H3605" must|strong="H0853" do|strong="H8104" what|strong="H4941" he|strong="H3117" tells you|strong="H3605" to|strong="H3068" do|strong="H8104" and|strong="H3068" always|strong="H3117" obey|strong="H8104" his|strong="H3605" laws, rules|strong="H2708", and|strong="H3068" commands|strong="H4687".
2 Remember today|strong="H3117" all|strong="H3117" the|strong="H0853" great|strong="H0430" things|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430" has|strong="H3068" done|strong="H3027" to|strong="H3068" teach|strong="H3045" you|strong="H0834". It|strong="H3588" was|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0834", not|strong="H3808" your|strong="H3068" children|strong="H1121", who|strong="H0834" saw|strong="H7200" those|strong="H0834" things|strong="H0834" happen and|strong="H1121" lived through|strong="H3027" them|strong="H0853". You|strong="H0834" saw|strong="H7200" how|strong="H0834" great|strong="H0430" he|strong="H0834" is|strong="H0834". You|strong="H0834" saw|strong="H7200" how|strong="H0834" strong|strong="H2389" he|strong="H0834" is|strong="H0834", and|strong="H1121" you|strong="H0834" saw|strong="H7200" the|strong="H0853" powerful|strong="H2389" things|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" does|strong="H3808".
3 You|strong="H0834", not|strong="H0776" your|strong="H3605" children, saw the|strong="H3605" miracles|strong="H0226" he|strong="H0834" did|strong="H6213" in|strong="H0776" Egypt|strong="H4714". You|strong="H0834" saw what|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" did|strong="H6213" to|strong="H4714" Pharaoh|strong="H6547", the|strong="H3605" king|strong="H4428" of|strong="H4428" Egypt|strong="H4714", and|strong="H0776" to|strong="H4714" his|strong="H3605" whole|strong="H3605" country|strong="H0776".
4 You|strong="H0834", not|strong="H2088" your|strong="H3068" children, saw what|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" did|strong="H6213" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H0853" Egyptian|strong="H4714" army|strong="H2428"—to|strong="H5704" their|strong="H3068" horses|strong="H5483" and|strong="H3068" chariots|strong="H7393". They|strong="H0834" were|strong="H0834" chasing|strong="H0310" you|strong="H0834", but|strong="H3117" you|strong="H0834" saw him|strong="H5921" cover them|strong="H0853" with|strong="H3068" the|strong="H0853" water|strong="H4325" from|strong="H5921" the|strong="H0853" Red Sea|strong="H3220". You|strong="H0834" saw how|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" completely destroyed|strong="H0006" them|strong="H0853".
5 It|strong="H5704" was|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0834", not|strong="H2088" your|strong="H0834" children, who|strong="H0834" saw everything|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" did|strong="H6213" for|strong="H2088" you|strong="H0834" in|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0834" desert|strong="H4057" until|strong="H5704" you|strong="H0834" came|strong="H0935" to|strong="H0935" this|strong="H2088" place|strong="H4725".
6 You|strong="H0834" saw what|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" did|strong="H6213" to|strong="H3478" Dathan|strong="H1885" and|strong="H1121" Abiram|strong="H0048", the|strong="H3605" sons|strong="H1121" of|strong="H1121" Eliab|strong="H0446" from|strong="H3478" Reuben’s family|strong="H1004". All|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" Israelites|strong="H3478" watched as|strong="H0834" the|strong="H3605" ground|strong="H0776" opened|strong="H6475" up|strong="H1104" like|strong="H0834" a|strong="H0834" mouth|strong="H6310" and|strong="H1121" swallowed|strong="H1104" them|strong="H0853", their|strong="H3605" families|strong="H1004", their|strong="H3605" tents|strong="H0168", and|strong="H1121" all|strong="H3605" of|strong="H1121" their|strong="H3605" servants and|strong="H1121" animals.
7 It|strong="H3588" was|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0834", not|strong="H3588" your|strong="H3068" children, who|strong="H0834" saw|strong="H7200" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" great|strong="H1419" things|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" LORD|strong="H3068" did|strong="H6213".
8 “So|strong="H4616" you|strong="H0859" must|strong="H0853" obey|strong="H8104" every|strong="H3605" command|strong="H6680" I|strong="H0834" tell|strong="H3605" you|strong="H0859" today|strong="H3117". Then|strong="H0853" you|strong="H0859" will|strong="H0776" be|strong="H0776" strong|strong="H2388". And|strong="H0935" you|strong="H0859" will|strong="H0776" be|strong="H0776" able to|strong="H0935" go|strong="H0935" across|strong="H5674" the|strong="H3605" Jordan River|strong="H0776" and|strong="H0935" take|strong="H3423" the|strong="H3605" land|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0859" are|strong="H0834" ready to|strong="H0935" enter|strong="H0935".
9 Then|strong="H4616" you|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" live|strong="H0748" a|strong="H5414" long|strong="H3117" life|strong="H3117" in|strong="H5921" that|strong="H0834" country|strong="H0776". The|strong="H0834" LORD|strong="H3068" promised|strong="H7650" to|strong="H5921" give|strong="H5414" that|strong="H0834" land|strong="H0776" to|strong="H5921" your|strong="H3068" ancestors|strong="H0001" and|strong="H3068" all|strong="H3117" their|strong="H3068" descendants|strong="H2233". It|strong="H5414" is|strong="H0834" a|strong="H5414" land|strong="H0776" filled with|strong="H2100" many good things|strong="H0834".
10 The|strong="H0853" land|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0859" will|strong="H0776" get|strong="H3318" is|strong="H0834" not|strong="H3808" like|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0853" land|strong="H0776" of|strong="H0776" Egypt|strong="H4714" that|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0859" came|strong="H0935" from|strong="H0935". In|strong="H0935" Egypt|strong="H4714" you|strong="H0859" planted|strong="H2232" your|strong="H0834" seeds|strong="H2233" and|strong="H0935" used your|strong="H0834" feet|strong="H7272" to|strong="H0935" pump water|strong="H8248" from|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0853" canals to|strong="H0935" water|strong="H8248" your|strong="H0834" fields like|strong="H0834" a|strong="H3588" vegetable|strong="H3419" garden|strong="H1588".
11 But|strong="H0859" the|strong="H0834" land|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0859" will|strong="H0776" soon get|strong="H0935" is|strong="H0834" not|strong="H0776" like|strong="H0834" that|strong="H0834". In|strong="H0935" Israel|strong="H8064" there|strong="H8033" are|strong="H0834" mountains|strong="H2022" and|strong="H0935" valleys|strong="H1237", and|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0834" land|strong="H0776" gets|strong="H0935" its|strong="H0935" water|strong="H4325" from|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0834" rain|strong="H4306" that|strong="H0834" falls from|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0834" sky|strong="H8064".
12 The|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430" cares|strong="H1875" for|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" land|strong="H0776". The|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430" watches over|strong="H0853" it|strong="H5704", from|strong="H5704" the|strong="H0853" beginning|strong="H7225" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H0853" end|strong="H0319" of|strong="H0776" the|strong="H0853" year|strong="H8141".
13 “The|strong="H3605" Lord|strong="H3068" says, ‘You|strong="H0834" must|strong="H0853" listen|strong="H8085" carefully|strong="H8085" to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H3605" commands|strong="H6680" I|strong="H0834" give|strong="H6680" you|strong="H0834" today|strong="H3117": You|strong="H0834" must|strong="H0853" love|strong="H0157" the|strong="H3605" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430", and|strong="H3068" serve|strong="H5647" him|strong="H0413" with|strong="H0413" all|strong="H3605" your|strong="H3068" heart|strong="H3824" and|strong="H3068" all|strong="H3605" your|strong="H3068" soul|strong="H5315". If|strong="H0518" you|strong="H0834" do|strong="H5647" that|strong="H0834",
14 I|strong="H5414" will|strong="H0776" send|strong="H5414" rain|strong="H4306" for|strong="H0776" your|strong="H5414" land|strong="H0776" at|strong="H0622" the|strong="H5414" right time|strong="H6256". I|strong="H5414" will|strong="H0776" send|strong="H5414" the|strong="H5414" autumn|strong="H3138" rain|strong="H4306" and|strong="H0776" the|strong="H5414" spring|strong="H4456" rain|strong="H4306". Then|strong="H5414" you|strong="H5414" can gather|strong="H0622" your|strong="H5414" grain|strong="H1715", your|strong="H5414" new|strong="H8492" wine|strong="H8492", and|strong="H0776" your|strong="H5414" oil|strong="H3323".
15 And|strong="H0398" I|strong="H5414" will|strong="H5414" make|strong="H5414" grass|strong="H6212" grow in|strong="H5414" your|strong="H5414" fields|strong="H7704" for|strong="H5414" your|strong="H5414" cattle|strong="H0929". You|strong="H5414" will|strong="H5414" have|strong="H7646" plenty|strong="H7646" to|strong="H5414" eat|strong="H0398".’
16 “He|strong="H0430" says, ‘Be|strong="H0430" careful|strong="H8104"! Don’t|strong="H8104" be|strong="H0430" fooled. Don’t|strong="H8104" turn|strong="H5493" away|strong="H5493" from|strong="H5493" me|strong="H8104" to|strong="H8104" serve|strong="H5647" other|strong="H0312" gods|strong="H0430" and|strong="H0430" to|strong="H8104" bow|strong="H7812" down|strong="H7812" to|strong="H8104" them|strong="H5647".’
17 If|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0834" do that|strong="H0834", the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3068" become|strong="H1961" very|strong="H2734" angry|strong="H2734" with|strong="H3068" you|strong="H0834". He|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" shut|strong="H6113" the|strong="H0853" skies|strong="H5921", and|strong="H3068" there|strong="H1961" will|strong="H3068" be|strong="H1961" no|strong="H3808" rain|strong="H4306". The|strong="H0853" land|strong="H0776" will|strong="H3068" not|strong="H3808" make|strong="H5414" a|strong="H1961" harvest, and|strong="H3068" you|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" soon|strong="H4120" die|strong="H0006" in|strong="H5921" the|strong="H0853" good|strong="H2896" land|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" is|strong="H0834" giving|strong="H5414" you|strong="H0834".
18 “Remember these|strong="H0428" commands|strong="H1697" I|strong="H7760" give|strong="H7760" you|strong="H5921". Keep them|strong="H0853" in|strong="H5921" your|strong="H5921" hearts|strong="H3824". Write them|strong="H0853" down|strong="H7760" and|strong="H3027" tie|strong="H7194" them|strong="H0853" on|strong="H5921" your|strong="H5921" hands|strong="H3027" and|strong="H3027" wear|strong="H1961" them|strong="H0853" on|strong="H5921" your|strong="H5921" foreheads as|strong="H1697" a|strong="H1961" way|strong="H1697" to|strong="H1961" remember my|strong="H7760" laws.
19 Teach|strong="H3925" these|strong="H1696" laws to|strong="H1696" your|strong="H6965" children|strong="H1121". Talk|strong="H1696" about|strong="H1870" these|strong="H1696" things when|strong="H1696" you|strong="H0853" sit|strong="H3427" in|strong="H3427" your|strong="H6965" houses|strong="H1004", when|strong="H1696" you|strong="H0853" walk|strong="H1870" along|strong="H0853" the|strong="H0853" road|strong="H1870", when|strong="H1696" you|strong="H0853" lie|strong="H7901" down|strong="H7901", and|strong="H1121" when|strong="H1696" you|strong="H0853" get|strong="H6965" up|strong="H6965".
20 Write|strong="H3789" these commands on|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" doorposts|strong="H4201" of|strong="H1004" your|strong="H5921" houses|strong="H1004" and|strong="H1004" on|strong="H5921" your|strong="H5921" gates|strong="H8179".
21 Then|strong="H4616" both|strong="H5921" you|strong="H0834" and|strong="H1121" your|strong="H3068" children|strong="H1121" will|strong="H3068" live|strong="H3117" a|strong="H5414" long|strong="H3117" time|strong="H3117" in|strong="H5921" the|strong="H0834" land|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0834" LORD|strong="H3068" promised|strong="H7650" to|strong="H5921" give|strong="H5414" to|strong="H5921" your|strong="H3068" ancestors|strong="H0001". You|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" live|strong="H3117" there|strong="H3068" as|strong="H0834" long|strong="H3117" as|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0834" skies|strong="H5921" are|strong="H0834" above|strong="H5921" the|strong="H0834" earth|strong="H0776".
22 “Be|strong="H3068" careful|strong="H8104" to|strong="H3068" obey|strong="H6213" every|strong="H3605" command|strong="H6680" I|strong="H0834" have|strong="H0834" told|strong="H6680" you|strong="H0834" to|strong="H3068" follow|strong="H3068": Love|strong="H0157" the|strong="H3605" LORD|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H0430", follow|strong="H3068" all|strong="H3605" his|strong="H3605" ways|strong="H1870", and|strong="H3068" be|strong="H3068" faithful to|strong="H3068" him|strong="H0853".
23 Then|strong="H0853", when|strong="H3068" you|strong="H3605" go into|strong="H3423" the|strong="H3605" land|strong="H6440", the|strong="H3605" LORD|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3068" force|strong="H1471" all|strong="H3605" those|strong="H0428" other|strong="H0428" nations|strong="H1471" out|strong="H4480". You|strong="H3605" will|strong="H3068" take|strong="H3423" the|strong="H3605" land|strong="H6440" from|strong="H4480" nations|strong="H1471" that|strong="H3605" are|strong="H0428" larger|strong="H1419" and|strong="H3068" more|strong="H4480" powerful|strong="H6099" than|strong="H4480" you|strong="H3605".
24 All|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" land|strong="H4725" you|strong="H0834" walk|strong="H1869" on|strong="H1961" will|strong="H1961" be|strong="H1961" yours. Your|strong="H3605" land|strong="H4725" will|strong="H1961" go|strong="H1961" from|strong="H4480" the|strong="H3605" desert|strong="H4057" in|strong="H4725" the|strong="H3605" south|strong="H3220" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" way|strong="H3605" to|strong="H5704" Lebanon|strong="H3844" in|strong="H4725" the|strong="H3605" north.
