¹ And this is the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments, which Jehovah your God commanded to teach you, for you to do them in the land whither you cross·​·over to possess it;

² that thou mightest fear Jehovah 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.

³ And hear, O Israel, and observe to do, that it may be·​·well for thee, and that you may multiply exceedingly, as Jehovah God of thy fathers has spoken to thee, in the land that flows with milk and honey.

⁴ Hear, O Israel; Jehovah is our God; Jehovah is one.

⁵ And thou shalt love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy forces^◦.

⁶ And these words, which I command thee today, shall be upon thy heart;

⁷ and thou shalt teach them diligently^* to thy sons, and shalt speak of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest^◦ in the way, and when thou liest·​·down, and when thou risest·​·up.

⁸ And thou shalt tie them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be for frontlets between thine eyes.

⁹ And thou shalt write them on the doorposts of thy house, and on^◦ thy gates.

¹⁰ And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall have brought thee into the land which He promised to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and good cities, which thou buildedst not,

¹¹ and houses full of every good, which thou didst not fill, and cisterns hewed·​·out, which thou hewedst· not ·out, vineyards and olive·​·trees, which thou didst not plant; and thou shalt have eaten and be satisfied;

¹² then take·​·heed for thyself lest thou forget Jehovah, Who brought· thee ·out from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude^*.

¹³ Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God, and serve Him, and shalt promise by His name.

¹⁴ You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples which are all around you

¹⁵ (for Jehovah thy God is a jealous God^◦ among you), lest the anger of Jehovah thy God be·​·fierce against thee, and blot· thee ·out from upon the face of the ground.

¹⁶ You shall not tempt Jehovah your God, as^◦ you tempted Him in Massah^*.

¹⁷ Keeping you shall keep the commandments of Jehovah your God, and His testimonies, and His statutes, which He has commanded thee.

¹⁸ And thou shalt do that which is upright and good in the eyes of Jehovah, that it may be·​·well with thee, and that thou mayest go·​·in and possess the good land which Jehovah promised to thy fathers,

¹⁹ to push·​·out all thine enemies from before thee, as Jehovah has spoken.

²⁰ And when thy son asks thee tomorrow, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Jehovah our God has commanded you?

²¹ Then thou shalt say to thy son, We were Pharaoh’s servants in Egypt; and Jehovah brought us out of Egypt with a firm hand;

²² and Jehovah gave signs and miracles, great and evil, on^◦ Egypt, on^◦ Pharaoh, and on^◦ all his house, before our eyes;

²³ and He brought· us ·out from thence, that He might bring· us ·in, to give us the land which He promised to our fathers.

²⁴ And Jehovah commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Jehovah our God, for our good all the days, to keep· us ·alive, as it is this day.

²⁵ And it shall be our justice, if we observe to do all these commandments before Jehovah our God, as He has commanded us.

¹ Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Yahweh your God commanded to teach you, that you might do them in the land where you go over to possess it;

² that you might fear Yahweh your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you, you, and your son, and your son's son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

³ Hear therefore, Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.

⁴ Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God; Yahweh is one:

⁵ and you shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.

⁶ These words, which I command you this day, shall be on your heart;

⁷ and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.

⁸ You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.

⁹ You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates.

¹⁰ It shall be, when Yahweh your God shall bring you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities, which you didn't build,

¹¹ and houses full of all good things, which you didn't fill, and cisterns dug out, which you didn't dig, vineyards and olive trees, which you didn't plant, and you shall eat and be full;

¹² then beware lest you forget Yahweh, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

¹³ You shall fear Yahweh your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name.

¹⁴ You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who are around you;

¹⁵ for Yahweh your God in the midst of you is a jealous God; lest the anger of Yahweh your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.

¹⁶ You shall not tempt Yahweh your God, as you tempted him in Massah.

¹⁷ You shall diligently keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded you.

¹⁸ You shall do that which is right and good in the sight of Yahweh; that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land which Yahweh swore to your fathers,

¹⁹ to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as Yahweh has spoken.

²⁰ When your son asks you in time to come, saying, "What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Yahweh our God has commanded you mean?"

²¹ then you shall tell your son, "We were Pharaoh's bondservants in Egypt: and Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;

²² and Yahweh showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;

²³ and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.

²⁴ Yahweh commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as at this day.

²⁵ It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this commandment before Yahweh our God, as he has commanded us."
