1 “These are all the laws that the Lord your God commanded me to teach you. Obey them in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
2 As long as you live, you and your descendants are to honour the Lord your God and obey all his laws that I am giving you, so that you may live in that land a long time.
3 Listen to them, people of Israel, and obey them! Then all will go well with you, and you will become a mighty nation and live in that rich and fertile land, just as the Lord, the God of our ancestors, has promised.
4 “Israel, remember this! The Lord — and the Lord alone — is our God.… is our God; or The Lord, our God, is the only God; or The Lord our God is one.
