1. Take care to do all the commandments which I command thee this day that ye may live and be multiplied and enter in and inherit the land which the Lord swore unto your fathers.
2. And thou shalt remember all the way by which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness to afflict thee and to prove thee to know what was in thine heart, whether thou would keep his commandments, or not.
3. And he afflicted thee and caused thee to hunger and sustained thee with manna, food of which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know, that he might make thee know that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord shall man live.
4. Thy raiment never waxed old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
5. And know in thine heart, that as a man chastens his son, so the Lord thy God chastens thee.
6. Keep, therefore, the commandments of the Lord thy God by walking in his ways and fearing him.
