1 Then Moses said to the people, “Obey all the laws that I am teaching you, and you will live and occupy the land which the Lord, the God of your ancestors, is giving you.
2 Do not add anything to what I command you, and do not take anything away. Obey the commands of the Lord your God that I have given you.
3 You yourselves saw what the Lord did at Mount Peor. He destroyed everyone who worshipped Baal there,
4 but those of you who were faithful to the Lord your God are still alive today.
5 “I have taught you all the laws, as the Lord my God told me to do. Obey them in the land that you are about to invade and occupy.
6 Obey them faithfully, and this will show the people of other nations how wise you are. When they hear of all these laws, they will say, ‘What wisdom and understanding this great nation has!’
