Deuteronomy 6

{6:1} Now these [are] the commandments, the statutes,
and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded
to teach you, that ye might do [them] in the land whither ye
go to possess it: {6:2} That thou mightest fear the LORD
thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments,
which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s
son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be
prolonged.
{6:3} Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do [it;] that
it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily,
as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the
land that floweth with milk and honey. {6:4} Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God [is] one LORD: {6:5} And thou shalt
love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy
soul, and with all thy might. {6:6} And these words, which
I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: {6:7} And
thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt
talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou
walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when
thou risest up. {6:8} And thou shalt bind them for a sign
upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine
eyes. {6:9} And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy
house, and on thy gates. {6:10} And it shall be, when the
LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which
he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou
buildedst not, {6:11} And houses full of all good [things,]
which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou
diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst
not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full; {6:12} [Then]
beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth
out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. {6:13}
Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt
swear by his name. {6:14} Ye shall not go after other gods,
of the gods of the people which [are] round about you;
{6:15} (For the LORD thy God [is] a jealous God among
you) lest the anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against
thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
{6:16} Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye
tempted [him] in Massah. {6:17} Ye shall diligently keep
the commandments of the LORD your God, and his
testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded
thee. {6:18} And thou shalt do [that which is] right and
good in the sight of the LORD: that it may be well with
thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land
which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, {6:19} To cast out
all thine enemies from before thee, as the LORD hath
spoken. {6:20} [And] when thy son asketh thee in time to
come, saying, What [mean] the testimonies, and the statutes,
and the judgments, which the LORD our God hath
commanded you? {6:21} Then thou shalt say unto thy son,
We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt; and the LORD
brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand: {6:22} And the
LORD shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon
Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before
our eyes: {6:23} And he brought us out from thence, that he
might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto
our fathers. {6:24} And the LORD commanded us to do all
these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good
always, that he might preserve us alive, as [it is] at this day.
{6:25} And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to
do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as
he hath commanded us.
