1 Love the Lord your God. Obey his orders, rules, laws and commands.
2 Remember today it was not your children who saw and felt the correction of the Lord your God. They did not see his majesty, his power and his strength.
3 They did not see his signs and the things he did in Egypt to the king and his whole country.
4 They did not see what he did to the Egyptian army, its horses and chariots. He drowned them in the Red Sea when they were chasing you. The Lord ruined them forever.
5 They did not see what he did for you in the desert until you arrived here.
6 They did not see what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab the Reubenite. The ground opened up and swallowed them, their families and their tents. And it swallowed up everyone who stood with them in Israel.
7 It was you who saw all these great things the Lord has done.
