Deuteronomy 6 — LSV
6Verse 1“And this [is] the command, the statutes and the judgments which your God YHWH has commanded to teach you to do in the land which you are passing over there to possess it,Verse 2so that you fear your God YHWH, to keep all His statutes and His commands which I am commanding you, you, and your son, and your son’s son, all [the] days of your life, and so that your days are prolonged.Verse 3And you have heard, O Israel, and observed to do [them], that it may be well with you, and that you may multiply exceedingly, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you, [in] the land flowing with milk and honey.Verse 4Hear, O Israel: Our God YHWH—YHWH [is] one!Verse 5And you have loved your God YHWH with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.Verse 6And these words which I am commanding you today have been on your heart,Verse 7and you have repeated them to your sons, and spoken of them in your sitting in your house, and in your walking in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,Verse 8and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes,Verse 9and you have written them on doorposts of your house and on your gates.Verse 10And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to you great and good cities which you have not built,Verse 11and houses full of all good things which you have not filled, and wells dug which you have not dug, vineyards and olive-yards which you have not planted, that you have eaten and been satisfied.Verse 12Take heed to yourself lest you forget YHWH who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants.Verse 13You fear your God YHWH, and you serve Him, and you swear by His Name.Verse 14You do not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who [are] around you,Verse 15for your God YHWH [is] a zealous God in your midst—lest the anger of your God YHWH burns against you, and He has destroyed you from off the face of the ground.Verse 16You do not try your God YHWH as you tried [Him] in Massah.Verse 17You diligently keep the commands of your God YHWH, and His testimonies and His statutes which He has commanded you,Verse 18and you have done that which is right and good in the eyes of YHWH, so that it is well with you, and you have gone in and possessed the good land which YHWH has sworn to your fathers,Verse 19to drive away all your enemies from your presence, as YHWH has spoken.Verse 20When your son asks you hereafter, saying, What [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments which our God YHWH has commanded you?Verse 21Then you have said to your son, We have been servants of Pharaoh in Egypt, and YHWH brings us out of Egypt by a high hand;Verse 22and YHWH gives signs and wonders, great and severe, on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;Verse 23and He has brought us out from there, in order to bring us in, to give to us the land which He had sworn to our fathers.Verse 24And YHWH commands us to do all these statutes, to fear our God YHWH, for good to ourselves [for] all the days, to keep us alive, as [at] this day;Verse 25and it is righteousness for us when we observe to do all this command before our God YHWH, as He has commanded us.”
