Deuteronomy 4:3-13

3Your eyesH5869 have seenH7200 what Jehovah did because of Baal-PeorH1187; for all the menH376 that followed Baal-PeorH1187, Jehovah thy 1GodH430 hath destroyedH8045 them from among you;

4but ye that did cleave to Jehovah your 2GodH430 are aliveH2416 every one of you this dayH3117.

5SeeH7200, I have taughtH3925 you statutesH2706 and ordinancesH4941, even as Jehovah my 3GodH430 commandedH6680 me, that ye may do soH3651 in the landH776 into which ye enter to possessH3423 it.

6And ye shall keepH8104 and do them; for that will be your wisdomH2451 and your understandingH995 before the eyesH5869 of the peoplesH5971 that shall hearH8085 all these statutesH2706, and sayH559, Verily this greatH1419 nationH1471 is a wiseH2450 and understandingH995 peopleH5971.

7For what greatH1419 nationH1471 is there that hath 4GodH430 near to them as Jehovah our 5GodH430 is in everythingH3605 we callH7121 upon him for?

8And what greatH1419 nationH1471 is there that hath righteousH6662 statutesH2706 and ordinancesH4941, as all this lawH8451 which I setH5414 before you this dayH3117?

9OnlyH7535 take heedH8104 to thyself, and keepH8104 thy soulH5315 diligently, lestH6435 thou forgetH7911 the thingsH1697 that thine eyesH5869 have seenH7200 (and lestH6435 they departH5493 from thy heartH3824 all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH5315; but thou shalt makeH3045 them knownH3045 to thy sonsH1121 and to thy sons' sonsH1121),

10the dayH3117 that thou stoodest before Jehovah thy 6GodH430 in HorebH2722, when Jehovah saidH559 to me, Gather me the peopleH5971 together, that I may cause them to hearH8085 my wordsH1697, that they may learnH3925 them, and fearH3372 me all the daysH3117 that they live upon the earthH127, and teachH3925 them to their children.

11And ye came near and stoodH5975 under the mountainH2022; and the mountainH2022 burnedH1197 with fireH784 to the heartH3820 of heavenH8064, with darknessH2822, cloudsH6051, and obscurity.

12And Jehovah spokeH1696 to you from the midstH8432 of the fireH784: ye heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697, but ye sawH7200 no formH8544; only [ye heardH8085] a voiceH6963.

13And he declaredH5046 to you his covenantH1285, which he commandedH6680 you to do, the tenH6235 wordsH1697; and he wroteH3789 them on twoH8147 tables of stoneH68.
