Deuteronomy 6:17-25

17Ye shall diligentlyH8104 keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of YhwhH3068 your GodH430, and his testimoniesH5713, and his statutesH2706, which he hath commandedH6680 thee.

18And thou shalt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 and goodH2896 in the sightH5869 of YhwhH3068: that it may be wellH3190 with thee, and that thou mayest go inH935 and possessH3423 the goodH2896 landH776 which YhwhH3068 swareH7650 unto thy fathersH1,

19To cast outH1920 all thine enemiesH341 from beforeH6440 thee, as YhwhH3068 hath spokenH1696.

20And when thy sonH1121 askethH7592 thee in time to comeH4279, sayingH559, What mean the testimoniesH5713, and the statutesH2706, and the judgmentsH4941, which YhwhH3068 our GodH430 hath commandedH6680 you?1

21Then thou shalt sayH559 unto thy sonH1121, We were Pharaoh’sH6547 bondmenH5650 in EgyptH4714; And YhwhH3068 brought us outH3318 of EgyptH4714 with a mightyH2389 handH3027:

22And YhwhH3068 shewedH5414 signsH226 and wondersH4159, greatH1419 and soreH7451, upon EgyptH4714, upon PharaohH6547, and upon all his householdH1004, before our eyesH5869:2

23And he brought us outH3318 from thence, that he might bring us inH935, to giveH5414 us the landH776 which he swareH7650 unto our fathersH1.

24And YhwhH3068 commandedH6680 us to doH6213 all these statutesH2706, to fearH3372 YhwhH3068 our GodH430, for our goodH2896 alwaysH3117, that he might preserve us aliveH2421, as it is at this dayH3117.

25And it shall be our righteousnessH6666, if we observeH8104 to doH6213 all theseH2063 commandmentsH4687 beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 our GodH430, as he hath commandedH6680 us.
