Deuteronomy 8:4-13 Amplified Bible (AMP)

4. Your clothing did not become old upon you nor did your feet swell these forty years.

5. Know also in your [minds and] hearts that, as a man disciplines and instructs his son, so the Lord your God disciplines and instructs you.

6. So you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and [reverently] fear Him. [Prov. 8:13.]

7. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills;

8. A land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey;

9. A land in which you shall eat food without shortage and lack nothing in it; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper.

10. When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for all the good land which He has given you.

11. Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His precepts, and His statutes which I command you today,

12. Lest when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses and live in them,

13. And when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all you have is multiplied,
