Deuteronomy 8:1-10

1Every commandment which I command thee this day shall ye take heed to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and enter in and possess the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers.

2And thou shalt remember all the way which Jehovah thy 1God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or not.

3And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with the manna, which thou hadst not known, and which thy fathers knew not; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread alone, but by everything that goeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.

4Thy clothing grew not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.

5And know in thy heart that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy 2God chasteneth thee;

6and thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy 3God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.

7For Jehovah thy 4God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of water-brooks, of springs, and of deep waters, that gush forth in the valleys and hills;

8a land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig-trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey;

9a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, where thou shalt lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose mountains thou wilt dig copper.

10And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless Jehovah thy 5God for the good land which he hath given thee.
