4. But you that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
5. Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that you should do so in the land where you go to possess it.
6. Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
7. For what nation is there so great, that has God so near unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?
8. And what nation is there so great, that has statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
9. Only take heed to yourself, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life: but teach them to your sons, and your sons' sons;
10. Especially the day that you stood before the LORD your God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me,
11. And you came near and stood at the foot of the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
