Deuteronomy 6:1--8:20

6:1

Now these [are] the commandments
<04687>_,

the statutes
<02706>_,

and the judgments
<04941>_,

which the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

to teach
<03925> (8763)

you, that ye might do
<06213> (8800)

[them] in the land
<0776>

whither ye go
<05674> (8802)

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it: {go: Heb. pass over}

6:2

That thou mightest fear
<03372> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

all his statutes
<02708>

and his commandments
<04687>_,

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee, thou, and thy son
<01121>_,

and thy son's
<01121>

son
<01121>_,

all the days
<03117>

of thy life
<02416>_;

and that thy days
<03117>

may be prolonged
<0748> (8686)_.

6:3

Hear
<08085> (8804)

therefore, O Israel
<03478>_,

and observe
<08104> (8804)

to do
<06213> (8800)

[it]; that it may be well
<03190> (8799)

with thee, and that ye may increase
<07235> (8799)

mightily
<03966>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of thy fathers
<01>

hath promised
<01696> (8765)

thee, in the land
<0776>

that floweth
<02100> (8802)

with milk
<02461>

and honey
<01706>_.

6:4

Hear
<08085> (8798)_,

O Israel
<03478>_:

The LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

[is] one
<0259>

LORD
<03068>_:

6:5

And thou shalt love
<0157> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

with all thine heart
<03824>_,

and with all thy soul
<05315>_,

and with all thy might
<03966>_.

6:6

And these words
<01697>_,

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this day
<03117>_,

shall be in thine heart
<03824>_:

6:7

And thou shalt teach them diligently
<08150> (8765)

unto thy children
<01121>_,

and shalt talk
<01696> (8765)

of them when thou sittest
<03427> (8800)

in thine house
<01004>_,

and when thou walkest
<03212> (8800)

by the way
<01870>_,

and when thou liest down
<07901> (8800)_,

and when thou risest up
<06965> (8800)_.

{teach: Heb. whet, or, sharpen}

6:8

And thou shalt bind
<07194> (8804)

them for a sign
<0226>

upon thine hand
<03027>_,

and they shall be as frontlets
<02903>

between thine eyes
<05869>_.

6:9

And thou shalt write
<03789> (8804)

them upon the posts
<04201>

of thy house
<01004>_,

and on thy gates
<08179>_.

6:10

And it shall be, when the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall have brought
<0935> (8686)

thee into the land
<0776>

which he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto thy fathers
<01>_,

to Abraham
<085>_,

to Isaac
<03327>_,

and to Jacob
<03290>_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

thee great
<01419>

and goodly
<02896>

cities
<05892>_,

which thou buildedst
<01129> (8804)

not,

6:11

And houses
<01004>

full
<04392>

of all good
<02898>

[things], which thou filledst
<04390> (8765)

not, and wells
<0953>

digged
<02672> (8803)_,

which thou diggedst
<02672> (8804)

not, vineyards
<03754>

and olive trees
<02132>_,

which thou plantedst
<05193> (8804)

not; when thou shalt have eaten
<0398> (8804)

and be full
<07646> (8804)_;

6:12

[Then] beware
<08104> (8734)

lest thou forget
<07911> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

which brought thee forth
<03318> (8689)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

from the house
<01004>

of bondage
<05650>_.

{bondage: Heb. bondmen or, servants}

6:13

Thou shalt fear
<03372> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

and serve
<05647> (8799)

him, and shalt swear
<07650> (8735)

by his name
<08034>_.

6:14

Ye shall not go
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

of the gods
<0430>

of the people
<05971>

which [are] round about
<05439>

you;

6:15

(For the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

[is] a jealous
<07067>

God
<0410>

among
<07130>

you) lest the anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

be kindled
<02734> (8799)

against thee, and destroy
<08045> (8689)

thee from off the face
<06440>

of the earth
<0127>_.

6:16

Ye shall not tempt
<05254> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

as ye tempted
<05254> (8765)

[him] in Massah
<04532>_.

6:17

Ye shall diligently
<08104> (8800)

keep
<08104> (8799)

the commandments
<04687>

of the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

and his testimonies
<05713>_,

and his statutes
<02706>_,

which he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

thee.

6:18

And thou shalt do
<06213> (8804)

[that which is] right
<03477>

and good
<02896>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

that it may be well
<03190> (8799)

with thee, and that thou mayest go in
<0935> (8804)

and possess
<03423> (8804)

the good
<02896>

land
<0776>

which the LORD
<03068>

sware
<07650> (8738)

unto thy fathers
<01>_,

6:19

To cast out
<01920> (8800)

all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)

from before
<06440>

thee, as the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

6:20

[And] when thy son
<01121>

asketh
<07592> (8799)

thee in time to come
<04279>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What [mean] the testimonies
<05713>_,

and the statutes
<02706>_,

and the judgments
<04941>_,

which the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

you? {in...: Heb. to morrow}

6:21

Then thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)

unto thy son
<01121>_,

We were Pharaoh's
<06547>

bondmen
<05650>

in Egypt
<04714>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

brought us out
<03318> (8686)

of Egypt
<04714>

with a mighty
<02389>

hand
<03027>_:

6:22

And the LORD
<03068>

shewed
<05414> (8799)

signs
<0226>

and wonders
<04159>_,

great
<01419>

and sore
<07451>_,

upon Egypt
<04714>_,

upon Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and upon all his household
<01004>_,

before our eyes
<05869>_:

{sore: Heb. evil}

6:23

And he brought us out
<03318> (8689)

from thence, that he might bring us in
<0935> (8687)_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

us the land
<0776>

which he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto our fathers
<01>_.

6:24

And the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

us to do
<06213> (8800)

all these statutes
<02706>_,

to fear
<03372> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

for our good
<02896>

always
<03117>_,

that he might preserve us alive
<02421> (8763)_,

as [it is] at this day
<03117>_.

6:25

And it shall be our righteousness
<06666>_,

if we observe
<08104> (8799)

to do
<06213> (8800)

all these
<02063>

commandments
<04687>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

as he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

us.

7:1

When the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall bring
<0935> (8686)

thee into the land
<0776>

whither thou goest
<0935> (8802)

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it, and hath cast out
<05394> (8804)

many
<07227>

nations
<01471>

before
<06440>

thee, the Hittites
<02850>_,

and the Girgashites
<01622>_,

and the Amorites
<0567>_,

and the Canaanites
<03669>_,

and the Perizzites
<06522>_,

and the Hivites
<02340>_,

and the Jebusites
<02983>_,

seven
<07651>

nations
<01471>

greater
<07227>

and mightier
<06099>

than thou;

7:2

And when the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall deliver
<05414> (8804)

them before
<06440>

thee; thou shalt smite
<05221> (8689)

them, [and] utterly
<02763> (8687)

destroy
<02763> (8686)

them; thou shalt make
<03772> (8799)

no covenant
<01285>

with them, nor shew mercy
<02603> (8799)

unto them:

7:3

Neither shalt thou make marriages
<02859> (8691)

with them; thy daughter
<01323>

thou shalt not give
<05414> (8799)

unto his son
<01121>_,

nor his daughter
<01323>

shalt thou take
<03947> (8799)

unto thy son
<01121>_.

7:4

For they will turn away
<05493> (8686)

thy son
<01121>

from following
<0310>

me, that they may serve
<05647> (8804)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_:

so will the anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

be kindled
<02734> (8804)

against you, and destroy
<08045> (8689)

thee suddenly
<04118>_.

7:5

But thus shall ye deal
<06213> (8799)

with them; ye shall destroy
<05422> (8799)

their altars
<04196>_,

and break down
<07665> (8762)

their images
<04676>_,

and cut down
<01438> (8762)

their groves
<0842>_,

and burn
<08313> (8799)

their graven images
<06456>

with fire
<0784>_.

{their images: Heb. their statues, or, pillars}

7:6

For thou [art] an holy
<06918>

people
<05971>

unto the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_:

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath chosen
<0977> (8804)

thee to be a special
<05459>

people
<05971>

unto himself, above all people
<05971>

that [are] upon the face
<06440>

of the earth
<0127>_.

7:7

The LORD
<03068>

did not set his love
<02836> (8804)

upon you, nor choose
<0977> (8799)

you, because ye were more
<07230>

in number than any people
<05971>_;

for ye [were] the fewest
<04592>

of all people
<05971>_:

7:8

But because the LORD
<03068>

loved
<0160>

you, and because he would keep
<08104> (8800)

the oath
<07621>

which he had sworn
<07650> (8738)

unto your fathers
<01>_,

hath the LORD
<03068>

brought you out
<03318> (8689)

with a mighty
<02389>

hand
<03027>_,

and redeemed
<06299> (8799)

you out of the house
<01004>

of bondmen
<05650>_,

from the hand
<03027>

of Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

7:9

Know
<03045> (8804)

therefore that the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

he [is] God
<0430>_,

the faithful
<0539> (8737)

God
<0410>_,

which keepeth
<08104> (8802)

covenant
<01285>

and mercy
<02617>

with them that love
<0157> (8802)

him and keep
<08104> (8802)

his commandments
<04687>

to a thousand
<0505>

generations
<01755>_;

7:10

And repayeth
<07999> (8764)

them that hate
<08130> (8802)

him to their face
<06440>_,

to destroy
<06> (8687)

them: he will not be slack
<0309> (8762)

to him that hateth
<08130> (8802)

him, he will repay
<07999> (8762)

him to his face
<06440>_.

7:11

Thou shalt therefore keep
<08104> (8804)

the commandments
<04687>_,

and the statutes
<02706>_,

and the judgments
<04941>_,

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this day
<03117>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

them.

7:12

Wherefore it shall come to pass, if
<06118>

ye hearken
<08085> (8799)

to these judgments
<04941>_,

and keep
<08104> (8804)_,

and do
<06213> (8804)

them, that the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall keep
<08104> (8804)

unto thee the covenant
<01285>

and the mercy
<02617>

which he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto thy fathers
<01>_:

{if: Heb. because}

7:13

And he will love
<0157> (8804)

thee, and bless
<01288> (8765)

thee, and multiply
<07235> (8689)

thee: he will also bless
<01288> (8765)

the fruit
<06529>

of thy womb
<0990>_,

and the fruit
<06529>

of thy land
<0127>_,

thy corn
<01715>_,

and thy wine
<08492>_,

and thine oil
<03323>_,

the increase
<07698>

of thy kine
<0504>_,

and the flocks
<06251>

of thy sheep
<06629>_,

in the land
<0127>

which he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto thy fathers
<01>

to give
<05414> (8800)

thee.

7:14

Thou shalt be blessed
<01288> (8803)

above all people
<05971>_:

there shall not be male
<06135>

or female barren
<06135>

among you, or among your cattle
<0929>_.

7:15

And the LORD
<03068>

will take away
<05493> (8689)

from thee all sickness
<02483>_,

and will put
<07760> (8799)

none of the evil
<07451>

diseases
<04064>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

which thou knowest
<03045> (8804)_,

upon thee; but will lay
<05414> (8804)

them upon all [them] that hate
<08130> (8802)

thee.

7:16

And thou shalt consume
<0398> (8804)

all the people
<05971>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall deliver
<05414> (8802)

thee; thine eye
<05869>

shall have no pity
<02347> (8799)

upon them: neither shalt thou serve
<05647> (8799)

their gods
<0430>_;

for that [will be] a snare
<04170>

unto thee.

7:17

If thou shalt say
<0559> (8799)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

These nations
<01471>

[are] more
<07227>

than I; how
<0349>

can
<03201> (8799)

I dispossess
<03423> (8687)

them?

7:18

Thou shalt not be afraid
<03372> (8799)

of them: [but] shalt well
<02142> (8800)

remember
<02142> (8799)

what the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

did
<06213> (8804)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and unto all Egypt
<04714>_;

7:19

The great
<01419>

temptations
<04531>

which thine eyes
<05869>

saw
<07200> (8804)_,

and the signs
<0226>_,

and the wonders
<04159>_,

and the mighty
<02389>

hand
<03027>_,

and the stretched out
<05186> (8803)

arm
<02220>_,

whereby the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

brought thee out
<03318> (8689)_:

so shall the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

do
<06213> (8799)

unto all the people
<05971>

of whom thou art afraid
<03373> <06440>_.

7:20

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

will send
<07971> (8762)

the hornet
<06880>

among them, until they that are left
<07604> (8737)_,

and hide
<05641> (8737)

themselves from
<06440>

thee, be destroyed
<06> (8800)_.

7:21

Thou shalt not be affrighted
<06206> (8799)

at
<06440>

them: for the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

[is] among
<07130>

you, a mighty
<01419>

God
<0410>

and terrible
<03372> (8737)_.

7:22

And the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

will put out
<05394> (8804)

those
<0411>

nations
<01471>

before
<06440>

thee by little
<04592>

and little
<04592>_:

thou mayest
<03201> (8799)

not consume
<03615> (8763)

them at once
<04118>_,

lest the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

increase
<07235> (8799)

upon thee. {put...: Heb. pluck off}

7:23

But the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall deliver
<05414> (8804)

them unto thee
<06440>_,

and shall destroy
<01949> (8804)

them with a mighty
<01419>

destruction
<04103>_,

until they be destroyed
<08045> (8736)_.

{unto...: Heb. before thy face}

7:24

And he shall deliver
<05414> (8804)

their kings
<04428>

into thine hand
<03027>_,

and thou shalt destroy
<06> (8689)

their name
<08034>

from under heaven
<08064>_:

there shall no man
<0376>

be able to stand
<03320> (8691)

before
<06440>

thee, until thou have destroyed
<08045> (8687)

them.

7:25

The graven images
<06456>

of their gods
<0430>

shall ye burn
<08313> (8799)

with fire
<0784>_:

thou shalt not desire
<02530> (8799)

the silver
<03701>

or gold
<02091>

[that is] on them, nor take
<03947> (8804)

[it] unto thee, lest thou be snared
<03369> (8735)

therein: for it [is] an abomination
<08441>

to the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_.

7:26

Neither shalt thou bring
<0935> (8686)

an abomination
<08441>

into thine house
<01004>_,

lest thou be a cursed thing
<02764>

like it: [but] thou shalt utterly
<08262> (8763)

detest
<08262> (8762)

it, and thou shalt utterly
<08581> (8763)

abhor
<08581> (8762)

it; for it [is] a cursed thing
<02764>_.

8:1

All the commandments
<04687>

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this day
<03117>

shall ye observe
<08104> (8799)

to do
<06213> (8800)_,

that ye may live
<02421> (8799)_,

and multiply
<07235> (8804)_,

and go in
<0935> (8804)

and possess
<03423> (8804)

the land
<0776>

which the LORD
<03068>

sware
<07650> (8738)

unto your fathers
<01>_.

8:2

And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)

all the way
<01870>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

led
<03212> (8689)

thee these forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

to humble
<06031> (8763)

thee, [and] to prove
<05254> (8763)

thee, to know
<03045> (8800)

what [was] in thine heart
<03824>_,

whether thou wouldest keep
<08104> (8799)

his commandments
<04687>_,

or no.

8:3

And he humbled
<06031> (8762)

thee, and suffered thee to hunger
<07456> (8686)_,

and fed
<0398> (8686)

thee with manna
<04478>_,

which thou knewest
<03045> (8804)

not, neither did thy fathers
<01>

know
<03045> (8804)_;

that he might make thee know
<03045> (8687)

that man
<0120>

doth not live
<02421> (8799)

by bread
<03899>

only
<0905>_,

but by every [word] that proceedeth
<04161>

out of the mouth
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>

doth man
<0120>

live
<02421> (8799)_.

8:4

Thy raiment
<08071>

waxed not old
<01086> (8804)

upon thee, neither did thy foot
<07272>

swell
<01216> (8804)_,

these forty
<0705>

years
<08141>_.

8:5

Thou shalt also consider
<03045> (8804)

in
<05973>

thine heart
<03824>_,

that, as a man
<0376>

chasteneth
<03256> (8762)

his son
<01121>_,

[so] the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

chasteneth
<03256> (8764)

thee.

8:6

Therefore thou shalt keep
<08104> (8804)

the commandments
<04687>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

to walk
<03212> (8800)

in his ways
<01870>_,

and to fear
<03372> (8800)

him.

8:7

For the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

bringeth
<0935> (8688)

thee into a good
<02896>

land
<0776>_,

a land
<0776>

of brooks
<05158>

of water
<04325>_,

of fountains
<05869>

and depths
<08415>

that spring out
<03318> (8802)

of valleys
<01237>

and hills
<02022>_;

8:8

A land
<0776>

of wheat
<02406>_,

and barley
<08184>_,

and vines
<01612>_,

and fig trees
<08384>_,

and pomegranates
<07416>_;

a land
<0776>

of oil
<08081>

olive
<02132>_,

and honey
<01706>_;

{of oil...: Heb. of olive tree of oil}

8:9

A land
<0776>

wherein
<0834>

thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)

bread
<03899>

without
<03808>

scarceness
<04544>_,

thou shalt not lack
<02637> (8799)

any [thing] in it; a land
<0776>

whose stones
<068>

[are] iron
<01270>_,

and out of whose hills
<02042>

thou mayest dig
<02672> (8799)

brass
<05178>_.

8:10

When thou hast eaten
<0398> (8804)

and art full
<07646> (8804)_,

then thou shalt bless
<01288> (8765)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

for the good
<02896>

land
<0776>

which he hath given
<05414> (8804)

thee.

8:11

Beware
<08104> (8734)

that thou forget
<07911> (8799)

not the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

in not keeping
<08104> (8800)

his commandments
<04687>_,

and his judgments
<04941>_,

and his statutes
<02708>_,

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this day
<03117>_:

8:12

Lest [when] thou hast eaten
<0398> (8799)

and art full
<07646> (8804)_,

and hast built
<01129> (8799)

goodly
<02896>

houses
<01004>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8804)

[therein];

8:13

And [when] thy herds
<01241>

and thy flocks
<06629>

multiply
<07235> (8799)_,

and thy silver
<03701>

and thy gold
<02091>

is multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,

and all that thou hast is multiplied
<07235> (8799)_;

8:14

Then thine heart
<03824>

be lifted up
<07311> (8804)_,

and thou forget
<07911> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

which brought thee forth
<03318> (8688)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

from the house
<01004>

of bondage
<05650>_;

8:15

Who led
<03212> (8688)

thee through that great
<01419>

and terrible
<03372> (8737)

wilderness
<04057>_,

[wherein were] fiery
<08314>

serpents
<05175>_,

and scorpions
<06137>_,

and drought
<06774>_,

where [there was] no water
<04325>_;

who brought thee forth
<03318> (8688)

water
<04325>

out of the rock
<06697>

of flint
<02496>_;

8:16

Who fed
<0398> (8688)

thee in the wilderness
<04057>

with manna
<04478>_,

which thy fathers
<01>

knew
<03045> (8804)

not, that he might humble
<06031> (8763)

thee, and that he might prove
<05254> (8763)

thee, to do thee good
<03190> (8687)

at thy latter end
<0319>_;

8:17

And thou say
<0559> (8804)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

My power
<03581>

and the might
<06108>

of [mine] hand
<03027>

hath gotten
<06213> (8804)

me this wealth
<02428>_.

8:18

But thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_:

for [it is] he that giveth
<05414> (8802)

thee power
<03581>

to get
<06213> (8800)

wealth
<02428>_,

that he may establish
<06965> (8687)

his covenant
<01285>

which he sware
<07650> (8738)

unto thy fathers
<01>_,

as [it is] this day
<03117>_.

8:19

And it shall be, if thou do at all
<07911> (8800)

forget
<07911> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

and walk
<01980> (8804)

after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

and serve
<05647> (8804)

them, and worship
<07812> (8694)

them, I testify
<05749> (8689)

against you this day
<03117>

that ye shall surely
<06> (8800)

perish
<06> (8799)_.

8:20

As the nations
<01471>

which the LORD
<03068>

destroyeth
<06> (8688)

before your face
<06440>_,

so shall ye perish
<06> (8799)_;

because
<06118>

ye would not be obedient
<08085> (8799)

unto the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_.
