16 In the desert he fed you manna—something your ancestors had never seen. He tested you to make you humble so that everything would go well for you in the end.
17 Don’t ever say to yourself, ‘I got all this wealth by my own power and ability.’
18 Remember the Lord your God is the one who gives you power to do these things. He does this because he wants to keep the agreement that he made with your ancestors, as he is doing today!
19 “Don’t ever forget the Lord your God. Don’t ever follow other gods or worship and serve them. If you do that, I warn you today: You will surely be destroyed!
20 The Lord is destroying other nations for you. But if you stop listening to the Lord your God, you will be destroyed just like them!
