申命記 第 6 章

And these are the commandments and the ordinances and the judgments, as many as the Lord our God commanded to teach you to do so in the land into which you are entering there to inherit it,

that you may fear the Lord your God, keeping all his ordinances and his commandments which I command you today, you and your sons and your sons' sons, all the days of your life, that you may be long-lived.

And hear, Israel, and observe to do, that it may be well with you and that you may multiply greatly, just as the Lord the God of your fathers spoke, to give you a land flowing with milk and honey.

And these are the ordinances and the judgments which the Lord commanded the sons of Israel in the wilderness, after they had come out of the land of Egypt. Hear, Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord.

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

And these words, as many as I command you today, shall be in your heart and in your soul.

And you shall impress them upon your sons, and you shall speak of them when sitting in the house and when walking on the road and when lying down and when rising up.

And you shall fasten them as a sign upon your hand, and it shall be unshaken before your eyes.

And you shall write them on the doorposts of your houses and of your gates.

And it shall be, when the Lord your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraam and Isaak and Iakob, to give you cities great and good which you did not build,

houses full of all good things which you did not fill, hewn cisterns which you did not hew out, vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant; and when you have eaten and been filled,

take heed to yourself lest you forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

You shall fear the Lord your God, and him you shall serve, and to him you shall cleave, and by his name you shall swear.

You shall not go after other gods, from among the gods of the nations round about you,

for the Lord your God is a jealous God among you, lest the Lord your God, being provoked, be enraged with you and destroy you from the face of the earth.

You shall not put the Lord your God to the test, in the manner you tested him at the Testing.

Keeping, you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, the testimonies and the ordinances which he commanded you.

And you shall do what is pleasing and good before the Lord your God, that it may be well with you and that you may enter and inherit the good land which the Lord swore to your fathers,

to drive out all your enemies from before you, as he spoke.

And it shall be, when your son asks you tomorrow, saying, What are the testimonies and the ordinances and the judgments which the Lord our God commanded us?

then you shall say to your son, We were household slaves to Pharao in the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought us out from there with a mighty hand and with an uplifted arm.

And the Lord displayed signs and great and grievous wonders in Egypt, against Pharao and against his house, before our eyes.

And us he brought out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us this land which he swore to give to our fathers.

And the Lord commanded us to do all these ordinances, to fear the Lord our God, that it may be well with us all the days, that we may live, just as also today.

And there shall be mercy for us if we observe to do all these commandments before the Lord our God, as the Lord commanded us.
