18. Do whatever is proper and good before the Lord so that it may go well with you and that you may enter and occupy the good land that he promised your ancestors,
19. and that you may drive out all your enemies just as the Lord said.
20. When your children ask you later on, “What are the stipulations, statutes, and ordinances that the Lord our God commanded you?”
21. you must say to them, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt, but the Lord brought us out of Egypt in a powerful way.
22. And he brought signs and great, devastating wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on his whole family before our very eyes.
23. He delivered us from there so that he could give us the land he had promised our ancestors.
