And whenH3588 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 bringsH935 you intoH413 the landH776 He sworeH7650 to your fathersH1, to AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and JacobH3290, that He would giveH5414 you—a land with greatH1419 and splendidH2896 citiesH5892 thatH834 you did notH3808 buildH1129, 11with housesH1004 full ofH4392 everyH3605 goodH2898 thing with whichH834 you did notH3808 fill themH4390, with wellsH953H2672 thatH834 you did notH3808 digH2672, and with vineyardsH3754 and olive grovesH2132 thatH834 you did notH3808 plantH5193—and when you eatH398 and are satisfiedH7646, 12be carefulH8104 notH6435 to forgetH7911 the LORDH3068 whoH834 brought you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the houseH1004 of slaveryH5650.

FearH3372 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, serve HimH5647 only, and take your oathsH7650 in His nameH8034.1 14Do notH3808 followH1980H310 otherH312 godsH430, the godsH430 of the peoplesH5971 around youH5439. 15ForH3588 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, who is among youH7130, is a jealousH7067 GodH410. OtherwiseH6435 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 will be kindledH2734 against you, and He will wipe youH8045 offH5921 the faceH6440 of the earthH127.

16Do notH3808 testH5254 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 asH834 you tested HimH5254 at MassahH4532.2 17You are to diligently keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 and the testimoniesH5713 and statutesH2706 He has given youH6680. 18DoH6213 what is rightH3477 and goodH2896 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, so thatH4616 it may be wellH3190 with you and that you may enterH935 and possessH3423 the goodH2896 landH776 thatH834 the LORDH3068 your God sworeH7650 to give your fathersH1, 19driving outH1920 allH3605 your enemiesH341 before youH6440, asH834 the LORDH3068 has saidH1696.
