1
You must keep all the commands that I am giving you today, so that you may live and multiply, and go in and possess the land that Yahweh swore to your fathers.
2
You will call to mind all the ways that Yahweh your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, in order that he might humble you, that he might test you to know what was in your heart, as to whether you would keep his commandments or not.
3
He humbled you, and made you hunger, and fed you with manna, which you had not known and which your fathers had not known. He did that to make you know that it is not by bread alone that people live; rather, it is by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of Yahweh that people live.
4
Your clothing did not wear out and fall off you, and your feet did not swell up during those forty years.
5
You will think about in your heart, how, as a man disciplines his son, so Yahweh your God disciplines you.
6
You will keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, so that you might walk in his ways and honor him.
7
For Yahweh your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing out into valleys and among hills;
8
a land of wheat and barley, of vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey.
9
It is a land in which you will not eat bread in poverty and in which you will not lack anything; a land whose stones are made of iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.
10
You will eat and be full, and you will bless Yahweh your God for the good land that he has given you.
