 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 showed 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.
