Deuteronomy 6:19-25 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

19. And you will force out all your enemies, just as the Lord said.

20. “In the future, your children might ask you, ‘The Lord our God gave you teachings, laws, and rules. What do they mean?’

21. Then you will say to them, ‘We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt, but the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his great power.

22. The Lord did great and amazing things. We saw him do these things to the Egyptian people, to Pharaoh, and to the people in Pharaoh’s house.

23. He brought us out of Egypt so that he could give us the land that he promised our ancestors.

24. The Lord commanded us to follow all these teachings. We must respect the Lord our God. Then he will always keep us alive and doing well, as we are today.

25. If we carefully obey the whole law, exactly as the Lord our God told us to, he will say that we have done a very good thing.’
