35 You were shown these things so that you would know that the Lord is God. There is no other god.
36 He let you hear his voice from heaven so that he could instruct you. He showed you his great fire on earth, and you heard him speak from the column of fire.
37 Because he loved your ancestors and chose their descendants, he was with you as he brought you out of Egypt by his great power.
38 He forced nations greater and stronger than you out of your way to bring you into their land and give it to you. This land is your own possession today.
39 Remember today, and never forget that the Lord is God in heaven above and here on earth. There is no other god.
40 Obey his laws and commands which I’m giving you today. Then things will go well for you and your descendants. You will live for a long time in the land. The Lord your God is giving you the land for as long as you live.
41 Then Moses set aside three cities on the east side of the Jordan River.
