1. "These are the precepts and ceremonies, as well as the judgments, which the Lord your God has commanded that I teach to you, which you shall do in the land to which you will travel in order to possess it.
2. So may you fear the Lord your God, and keep all his commandments and precepts, which I am entrusting to you, and to your sons and grandsons, all the days of your life, so that your days may be prolonged.
3. Listen and observe, O Israel, so that you may do just as the Lord has instructed you, and it may be well with you, and you may be multiplied all the more, for the Lord, the God of your fathers, has promised you a land flowing with milk and honey.
4. Listen, O Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord.
5. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength.
6. And these words, which I instruct to you this day, shall be in your heart.
7. And you shall explain them to your sons. And you shall meditate upon them sitting in your house, and walking on a journey, when lying down and when rising up.
8. And you shall bind them like a sign on your hand, and they shall be placed and shall move between your eyes.
