`All the command which I am commanding thee to-day ye observe to do, so that ye live, and have multiplied, and gone in, and possessed the land which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers;
2 A nd you shall remember all the way which the Lord your God led you these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and to prove you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.
and thou hast remembered all the way which Jehovah thy God hath caused thee to go these forty years in the wilderness, in order to humble thee to try thee, to know that which in thy heart, whether thou dost keep His commands or not.
3 A nd He humbled you and allowed you to hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you recognize and personally know that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord.
`And He doth humble thee, and cause thee to hunger and doth cause thee to eat the manna (which thou hast not known, even thy fathers have not known), in order to cause thee to know that not by bread alone doth man live, but by every produce of the mouth of Jehovah man doth live.
4 Y our clothing did not become old upon you nor did your feet swell these forty years.
`Thy raiment hath not worn out from off thee, and thy foot hath not swelled these forty years,
5 K now also in your hearts that, as a man disciplines and instructs his son, so the Lord your God disciplines and instructs you.
and thou hast known, with thy heart, that as a man chastiseth his son Jehovah thy God is chastising thee,
6 S o you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and fear Him.
and thou hast kept the commands of Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.
7 F or the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills;
`For Jehovah thy God is bringing thee in unto a good land, a land of brooks of waters, of fountains, and of depths coming out in valley and in mountain:
8 A land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey;
a land of wheat, and barley, and vine, and fig, and pomegranate; a land of oil olive and honey;
9 A land in which you shall eat food without shortage and lack nothing in it; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper.
a land in which without scarcity thou dost eat bread, thou dost not lack anything in it; a land whose stones iron, and out of its mountains thou dost dig brass;
10 W hen you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for all the good land which He has given you.
and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied, and hast blessed Jehovah thy God, on the good land which he hath given to thee.
11 B eware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His precepts, and His statutes which I command you today,
`Take heed to thyself, lest thou forget Jehovah thy God so as not to keep His commands, and His judgments, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day;
12 L est when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses and live in them,
lest thou eat, and hast been satisfied, and good houses dost build, and hast inhabited;
13 A nd when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all you have is multiplied,
and thy herd and thy flock be multiplied, and silver and gold be multiplied to thee; and all that is thine be multiplied:
14 T hen your hearts be lifted up and you forget the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage,
`And thy heart hath been high, and thou hast forgotten Jehovah thy God (who is bringing thee out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;
15 W ho led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, but Who brought you forth water out of the flinty rock,
who is causing thee to go in the great and the terrible wilderness -- burning serpent, and scorpion, and thirst -- where there is no water; who is bringing out to thee waters from the flinty rock;
16 W ho fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end.
who is causing thee to eat manna in the wilderness, which thy fathers have not known, in order to humble thee, and in order to try thee, to do thee good in thy latter end),
17 A nd beware lest you say in your heart, My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.
and thou hast said in thy heart, My power, and the might of my hand, hath made for me this wealth:
18 B ut you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.
`And thou hast remembered Jehovah thy God, for He it who is giving to thee power to make wealth, in order to establish His covenant which He hath sworn to thy fathers as this day.
19 A nd if you forget the Lord your God and walk after other gods and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.
`And it hath been -- if thou really forget Jehovah thy God, and hast gone after other gods, and served them, and bowed thyself to them, I have testified against you to-day that ye do utterly perish;
20 L ike the nations which the Lord makes to perish before you, so shall you perish, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God.
as the nations whom Jehovah is destroying from your presence, so ye perish; because ye hearken not to the voice of Jehovah your God.
