Do not be afraid of them, for the <sc>Lordsc> your God will personally fight for you.&#8221;p>

You must revere the <sc>Lordsc> your God, serve him, and take oaths using only his name.

Then all the people will hear and be afraid, and not be so presumptuous again.p>

You must not tremble in their presence, for the <sc>Lordsc> your God, who is present among you, is a great and awesome God.

So you must keep his<n id="1" /> commandments, live according to his standards,<n id="2" /> and revere him.

Revere the <sc>Lordsc> your God, serve him, be loyal to him and take oaths only in his name.

The rest of the people will hear and become afraid to keep doing such evil among you.

Then all the peoples of the earth will see that you belong to the <sc>Lord,sc><n id="1" /> and they will respect you.

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;If you refuse to obey<n id="1" /> all the words of this law, the things written in this scroll, and refuse to fear this glorious and awesome name, the <sc>Lordsc> your God,

Instruct<n id="1" /> these people as follows: &#8216;You are about to cross the border of your relatives<n id="2" /> the descendants of Esau,<n id="3" /> who inhabit Seir. They will be afraid of you, so watch yourselves carefully.

you must not fear them. You must carefully recall<n id="1" /> what the <sc>Lordsc> your God did to Pharaoh and all Egypt,

and who brought you through the great, fearful desert of venomous serpents<n id="1" /> and scorpions, an arid place with no water. He made water flow<n id="2" /> from a flint rock and

He is the one you should praise;<n id="1" /> he is your God, the one who has done these great and awesome things for you that you have seen.

You must follow the <sc>Lordsc> your God and revere only him; and you must observe his commandments, obey him, serve him, and remain loyal to him.

Thus all Israel will hear and be afraid; no longer will they continue to do evil like this among you.<n id="1" />p>

Be strong and courageous! Do not fear or tremble before them, for the <sc>Lordsc> your God is the one who is going with you. He will not fail you or abandon you!&#8221;
