Deuteronomy 8:7-20

7For Jehovah thy 1God 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 2God for the good land which he hath given thee. 11Beware that thou forget not Jehovah thy 3God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day; 12lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built and inhabited fine houses, 13and thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied, 14then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget Jehovah thy 4God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; 15who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, [a wilderness of] fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there is no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint; 16who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end; 17— and thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has procured me this wealth. 18But thou shalt remember Jehovah thy 5God, that it is he who giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day. 19And it shall be, if thou do at all forget Jehovah thy 6God, and go after other 7gods, and serve them, and bow down to them, I testify against you this day that ye shall utterly perish. 20As the nations which Jehovah is causing to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah your 8God.
