1 The Lord is your God, so you must always love him and obey his laws and teachings.
2 Remember, he corrected you and not your children. You are the ones who saw the Lord use his great power
3 when he worked miracles in Egypt, making terrible things happen to the king and all his people.
4 And when the Egyptian army chased you in their chariots, you saw the Lord drown them and their horses in the Red Sea. Egypt still suffers from that defeat!
5 You saw what the Lord did for you while you were in the desert, right up to the time you arrived here.
