1 Now, therefore, hear, O Israel, the statutes and the rights which I teach you, for in doing them ye shall live and go in and inherit the land which the Lord God of your fathers gives you.
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish anything from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
3 Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baalpeor; for all the men that followed Baalpeor, the Lord thy God has destroyed them from among you.
4 But ye that did cleave unto the Lord your God are alive, every one of you this day.
