Deuteronomy 6
1Now these are
the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which
the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do
them in the land whither ye go to possess it:
2That
thou mightest fear the 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.
3Hear
therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be
well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the
LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land
that floweth with milk and honey.
4Hear,
O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5And
thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6And
these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in
thine heart:
7And
thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and
shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and
when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.
8And
thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they
shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9And
thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on
thy gates.
10And
it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee
into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham,
to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly
cities, which thou buildedst not,
11And
houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not,
and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and
olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt
have eaten and be full;
12Then
beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth
out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
13Thou
shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt
swear by his name.
14Ye
shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people
which are round about you;
15(For
the LORD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the
anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and
destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16Ye
shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted him in
Massah.
17Ye
shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your
God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath
commanded thee.
18And
thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of
the LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou
mayest go in and possess the good land which the LORD
sware unto thy fathers.
19To
cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the LORD
hath spoken.
20And
when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What
mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments,
which the LORD our God hath commanded you?
21Then
thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh's bondmen in
Egypt; and the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty
hand:
22And
the LORD shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon
Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before
our eyes:
23And
he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in,
to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.
24And
the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear
the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might
preserve us alive, as it is at this day.
25And
it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all
these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath
commanded us.
