Deuteronomy 8:14-20 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

14. then your heart might be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;

15. who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with venomous snakes and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who poured water for you out of the rock of flint;

16. who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers didn’t know; that he might humble you, and that he might prove you, to do you good at your latter end:

17. and lest you say in your heart, “My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.”

18. But you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth; that he may establish his covenant which he swore to your fathers, as it is today.

19. It shall be, if you shall forget the Lord your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you today that you shall surely perish.

20. As the nations that the Lord makes to perish before you, so you shall perish; because you wouldn’t listen to the Lord your God’s voice.
