Deuteronomy 4:1-9

1HearH8085H413 nowH6258, O IsraelH3478, the statutesH2706H413 and ordinancesH4941 IH595 am teachingH3925 youH853 to followH6213, so thatH4616 you may liveH2421 and may enterH935 and take possessionH3423 of the landH776 thatH834 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, is givingH5414 you. 2You must notH3808 addH3254 toH5921H1697 or subtractH1639 fromH4480 whatH834 IH595 commandH6680 youH853H3808, so that you may keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 thatH834 IH595 am giving youH6680.

3Your eyesH5869 have seenH7200 whatH834 the LORDH3068 didH6213 at Baal-peorH1187, forH3588 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 destroyedH8045 from among youH7130 allH3605H376 whoH834 followedH1980H310 Baal of PeorH1187. 4But youH859 who held fastH1695 to the LORDH3068 your GodH430 are aliveH2416 to this dayH3117, every one of youH3605.

5SeeH7200, I have taughtH3925 youH853 statutesH2706 and ordinancesH4941 just asH834 the LORDH3068 my GodH430 has commanded meH6680, so that you may follow themH6213H3651 inH7130 the landH776 thatH834 youH859 are about to enterH935H8033 and possessH3423. 6Observe themH6213 carefullyH8104, forH3588 thisH1931 will show your wisdomH2451 and understandingH998 in the sightH5869 of the peoplesH5971, whoH834 will hearH8085 of allH3605 theseH428 statutesH2706 and sayH559, “SurelyH7535 thisH2088 greatH1419 nationH1471 is a wiseH2450 and understandingH995 peopleH5971.”

7ForH3588 whatH4310 nationH1471 is great enoughH1419 toH834 have a godH430 as nearH7138 to themH413 as the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is to us wheneverH3605 we callH7121 on HimH413? 8And whatH4310 nationH1471 is great enoughH1419 toH834 have righteousH6662 statutesH2706 and ordinancesH4941 like thisH2063 entireH3605 lawH8451 IH595 setH5414 before youH6440 todayH3117?

9OnlyH7535 be on your guardH8104 and diligentlyH3966 watchH8104 yourselvesH5315, so that you do notH6435 forgetH7911 the thingsH1697 your eyesH5869 have seenH7200, and so that they do notH6435 slipH5493 from your heartH3824 asH3605H3117 long as you liveH2416. Teach themH3045 to your childrenH1121 and grandchildrenH1121.
