Deuteronomy 6:12-25 ▼

12 then take heed to it lest you forget YHWH who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

13 YHWH your God you shall fear, and Him you shall serve, and by His name you shall swear.

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

15 for a jealous God is YHWH your God among you—lest the anger of YHWH your God be kindled against you and destroy you from the face of the earth.

16 You? shall not test YHWH your? God, as you? tested Him in Massah.

17 You? shall diligently keep the commandments of YHWH your? God, and His testimonies and His statutes that He has commanded you.

18 And you shall do right and good in the eyes of YHWH, that it may be well with you, that you may go in and possess the good land that YHWH swore to your fathers,

19 to cast out all your enemies from before you as YHWH has spoken.

20 When your son asks you hereafter, saying, “What are the testimonies and the statutes and the ordinances that YHWH our God has commanded you??”

21 Then you shall say to your son, “We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, and YHWH brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

22 And YHWH showed signs and wonders, great and severe, 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 that He had sworn to our fathers.

24 And YHWH commanded us to observe all these statutes, to fear YHWH our God, for good to us all the time, to keep us alive as this day.

25 And it will be righteousness for us if we are careful to observe all this command before the face of YHWH our God, as He has commanded us.”
