11 your children, your wives, and the immigrants who live with you in your camp, the ones who chop your wood and those who draw your water—
12 ready to enter into the Lord your God’s covenant and into the agreement that the Lord your God is making with you right now.
13 That means the Lord will make you his own people right now—he will be your God just as he promised you and just as he swore to our ancestors: to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 But I’m not making this covenant and this agreement with you alone
15 but also with those standing here with us right now before the Lord our God, and also with those who aren’t here with us right now.
16 You know firsthand how we used to live in Egypt and how we passed right through the nations that you passed through.
17 You saw the horrific things, the filthy idols of wood and stone, silver and gold, that they had with them.
