15. He led you through the large and terrible desert that was dry and had no water, and that had poisonous snakes and stinging insects. He gave you water from a solid rock
16. and manna to eat in the desert. Manna was something your ancestors had never seen. He did this to take away your pride and to test you, so things would go well for you in the end.
17. You might say to yourself, “I am rich because of my own power and strength,”
18. but remember the Lord your God! It is he who gives you the power to become rich, keeping the agreement he promised to your ancestors, as it is today.
19. If you ever forget the Lord your God and follow other gods and worship them and bow down to them, I warn you today that you will be destroyed.
20. Just as the Lord destroyed the other nations for you, you can be destroyed if you do not obey the Lord your God.
