Deuteronomy 8

KJV

1  All³⁶⁰⁵ the commandments⁴⁶⁸⁷ which⁸³⁴ I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ thee this day³¹¹⁷ shall ye observe⁸¹⁰⁴ to do,⁶²¹³ that⁴⁶¹⁶ ye may live,²⁴²¹ and multiply,⁷²³⁵ and go in⁹³⁵ and possess^{3423 853} the land⁷⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ swore⁷⁶⁵⁰ unto your fathers.¹

2  And thou shalt remember^{2142 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the way¹⁸⁷⁰ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ led¹⁹⁸⁰ thee these²⁰⁸⁸ forty⁷⁰⁵ years⁸¹⁴¹ in the wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ to⁴⁶¹⁶ humble⁶⁰³¹ thee, and to prove⁵²⁵⁴ thee, to know^{3045 853} what⁸³⁴ was in thine heart,³⁸²⁴ whether thou wouldest keep⁸¹⁰⁴ his commandments,⁴⁶⁸⁷ or⁵¹⁸ not.³⁸⁰⁸

3  And he humbled⁶⁰³¹ thee, and suffered thee to hunger,⁷⁴⁵⁶ and fed³⁹⁸ thee with⁸⁵⁴ manna,⁴⁴⁷⁸ which⁸³⁴ thou knewest³⁰⁴⁵ not,³⁸⁰⁸ neither³⁸⁰⁸ did thy fathers¹ know;³⁰⁴⁵ that⁴⁶¹⁶ he might make thee know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ man¹²⁰ doth not³⁸⁰⁸ live²⁴²¹ by⁵⁹²¹ bread³⁸⁹⁹ only,⁹⁰⁵ but³⁵⁸⁸ by⁵⁹²¹ every³⁶⁰⁵ word that proceedeth out⁴¹⁶¹ of the mouth⁶³¹⁰ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ doth man¹²⁰ live.²⁴²¹

4  Thy raiment⁸⁰⁷¹ waxed not old^{1086 3808} upon^{4480 5921} thee, neither³⁸⁰⁸ did thy foot⁷²⁷² swell,¹²¹⁶ these²⁰⁸⁸ forty⁷⁰⁵ years.⁸¹⁴¹

5  Thou shalt also consider³⁰⁴⁵ in⁵⁹⁷³ thine heart,³⁸²⁴ that,³⁵⁸⁸ as⁸³⁴ a man³⁷⁶ chasteneth^{3256 853} his son,¹¹²¹ so the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ chasteneth³²⁵⁶ thee.

6  Therefore thou shalt keep^{8104 853} the commandments⁴⁶⁸⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ to walk¹⁹⁸⁰ in his ways,¹⁸⁷⁰ and to fear³³⁷² him.

7  For³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ bringeth⁹³⁵ thee into⁴¹³ a good²⁸⁹⁶ land,⁷⁷⁶ a land⁷⁷⁶ of brooks⁵¹⁵⁸ of water,⁴³²⁵ of fountains⁵⁸⁶⁹ and depths⁸⁴¹⁵ that spring out³³¹⁸ of valleys¹²³⁷ and hills;²⁰²²

8  A land⁷⁷⁶ of wheat,²⁴⁰⁶ and barley,⁸¹⁸⁴ and vines,¹⁶¹² and fig trees,⁸³⁸⁴ and pomegranates;⁷⁴¹⁶ a land⁷⁷⁶ of oil⁸⁰⁸¹ olive,²¹³² and honey;¹⁷⁰⁶

9  A land⁷⁷⁶ wherein⁸³⁴ thou shalt eat³⁹⁸ bread³⁸⁹⁹ without³⁸⁰⁸ scarceness,⁴⁵⁴⁴ thou shalt not³⁸⁰⁸ lack²⁶³⁷ any³⁶⁰⁵ thing in it; a land⁷⁷⁶ whose⁸³⁴ stones⁶⁸ are iron,¹²⁷⁰ and out of whose hills^{4480 2042} thou mayest dig²⁶⁷² brass.⁵¹⁷⁸

10  When thou hast eaten³⁹⁸ and art full,⁷⁶⁴⁶ then thou shalt bless^{1288 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God⁴³⁰ for⁵⁹²¹ the good²⁸⁹⁶ land⁷⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ he hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ thee.

11  Beware⁸¹⁰⁴ that thou forget not^{6435 7911 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ in not¹¹¹⁵ keeping⁸¹⁰⁴ his commandments,⁴⁶⁸⁷ and his judgments,⁴⁹⁴¹ and his statutes,²⁷⁰⁸ which⁸³⁴ I⁵⁹⁵ command⁶⁶⁸⁰ thee this day:³¹¹⁷

12  Lest⁶⁴³⁵ when thou hast eaten³⁹⁸ and art full,⁷⁶⁴⁶ and hast built¹¹²⁹ goodly²⁸⁹⁶ houses,¹⁰⁰⁴ and dwelt³⁴²⁷ therein;

13  And when thy herds¹²⁴¹ and thy flocks⁶⁶²⁹ multiply,⁷²³⁵ and thy silver³⁷⁰¹ and thy gold²⁰⁹¹ is multiplied,⁷²³⁵ and all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ thou hast is multiplied;⁷²³⁵

14  Then thine heart³⁸²⁴ be lifted up,⁷³¹¹ and thou forget^{7911 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ which brought thee forth³³¹⁸ out of the land^{4480 776} of Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ from the house^{4480 1004} of bondage;⁵⁶⁵⁰

15  Who led¹⁹⁸⁰ thee through that great¹⁴¹⁹ and terrible³³⁷² wilderness,⁴⁰⁵⁷ wherein were fiery⁸³¹⁴ serpents,⁵¹⁷⁵ and scorpions,⁶¹³⁷ and drought,⁶⁷⁷⁴ where⁸³⁴ there was no³⁶⁹ water;⁴³²⁵ who brought thee forth³³¹⁸ water⁴³²⁵ out of the rock^{4480 6697} of flint;²⁴⁹⁶

16  Who fed³⁹⁸ thee in the wilderness⁴⁰⁵⁷ with manna,⁴⁴⁷⁸ which⁸³⁴ thy fathers¹ knew³⁰⁴⁵ not,³⁸⁰⁸ that⁴⁶¹⁶ he might humble⁶⁰³¹ thee, and that⁴⁶¹⁶ he might prove⁵²⁵⁴ thee, to do thee good³¹⁹⁰ at thy latter end;³¹⁹

17  And thou say⁵⁵⁹ in thine heart,³⁸²⁴ My power³⁵⁸¹ and the might⁶¹⁰⁸ of mine hand³⁰²⁷ hath gotten⁶²¹³ me ⁸⁵³ this²⁰⁸⁸ wealth.²⁴²⁸

18  But thou shalt remember^{2142 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God:⁴³⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ it is he¹⁹³¹ that giveth⁵⁴¹⁴ thee power³⁵⁸¹ to get⁶²¹³ wealth,²⁴²⁸ that⁴⁶¹⁶ he may establish^{6965 853} his covenant¹²⁸⁵ which⁸³⁴ he swore⁷⁶⁵⁰ unto thy fathers,¹ as it is this²⁰⁸⁸ day.³¹¹⁷

19  And it shall be,¹⁹⁶¹ if⁵¹⁸ thou do at all forget^{7911 7911 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ thy God,⁴³⁰ and walk¹⁹⁸⁰ after³¹⁰ other³¹² gods,⁴³⁰ and serve⁵⁶⁴⁷ them, and worship⁷⁸¹² them, I testify⁵⁷⁴⁹ against you this day³¹¹⁷ that³⁵⁸⁸ ye shall surely perish.^{6 6}

20  As the nations¹⁴⁷¹ which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ destroyeth⁶ before your face,^{4480 6440} so³⁶⁵¹ shall ye perish;⁶ because⁶¹¹⁸ ye would not³⁸⁰⁸ be obedient⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto the voice⁶⁹⁶³ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God.⁴³⁰

1 πάσας τὰς ἐντολάς ἃς ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν σήμερον φυλάξεσθε ποιεῖν ἵνα ζῆτε καὶ πολυπλασιασθῆτε καὶ εἰσέλθητε καὶ κληρονομήσητε τὴν γῆν ἣν κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν ὤμοσεν τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν

2 καὶ μνησθήσῃ πᾶσαν τὴν ὁδόν ἣν ἤγαγέν σε κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὅπως ἂν κακώσῃ σε καὶ ἐκπειράσῃ σε καὶ διαγνωσθῇ τὰ ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου εἰ φυλάξῃ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ἢ οὔ

3 καὶ ἐκάκωσέν σε καὶ ἐλιμαγχόνησέν σε καὶ ἐψώμισέν σε τὸ μαννα ὃ οὐκ εἴδησαν οἱ πατέρες σου ἵνα ἀναγγείλῃ σοι ὅτι οὐκ ἐπ᾽ ἄρτῳ μόνῳ ζήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἀλλ᾽ ἐπὶ παντὶ ῥήματι τῷ ἐκπορευομένῳ διὰ στόματος θεοῦ ζήσεται ὁ ἄνθρωπος

4 τὰ ἱμάτιά σου οὐ κατετρίβη ἀπὸ σοῦ οἱ πόδες σου οὐκ ἐτυλώθησαν ἰδοὺ τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη

5 καὶ γνώσῃ τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ὅτι ὡς εἴ τις παιδεύσαι ἄνθρωπος τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ οὕτως κύριος ὁ θεός σου παιδεύσει σε

6 καὶ φυλάξῃ τὰς ἐντολὰς κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου πορεύεσθαι ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ φοβεῖσθαι αὐτόν

7 ὁ γὰρ κύριος ὁ θεός σου εἰσάγει σε εἰς γῆν ἀγαθὴν καὶ πολλήν οὗ χείμαρροι ὑδάτων καὶ πηγαὶ ἀβύσσων ἐκπορευόμεναι διὰ τῶν πεδίων καὶ διὰ τῶν ὀρέων

8 γῆ πυροῦ καὶ κριθῆς ἄμπελοι συκαῖ ῥόαι γῆ ἐλαίας ἐλαίου καὶ μέλιτος

9 γῆ ἐφ᾽ ἧς οὐ μετὰ πτωχείας φάγῃ τὸν ἄρτον σου καὶ οὐκ ἐνδεηθήσῃ οὐδὲν ἐπ᾽ αὐτῆς γῆ ἧς οἱ λίθοι σίδηρος καὶ ἐκ τῶν ὀρέων αὐτῆς μεταλλεύσεις χαλκόν

10 καὶ φάγῃ καὶ ἐμπλησθήσῃ καὶ εὐλογήσεις κύριον τὸν θεόν σου ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς τῆς ἀγαθῆς ἧς ἔδωκέν σοι

11 πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἐπιλάθῃ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τοῦ μὴ φυλάξαι τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ κρίματα καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαί σοι σήμερον

12 μὴ φαγὼν καὶ ἐμπλησθεὶς καὶ οἰκίας καλὰς οἰκοδομήσας καὶ κατοικήσας ἐν αὐταῖς

13 καὶ τῶν βοῶν σου καὶ τῶν προβάτων σου πληθυνθέντων σοι ἀργυρίου καὶ χρυσίου πληθυνθέντος σοι καὶ πάντων ὅσων σοι ἔσται πληθυνθέντων σοι

14 ὑψωθῇς τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἐπιλάθῃ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τοῦ ἐξαγαγόντος σε ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἐξ οἴκου δουλείας

15 τοῦ ἀγαγόντος σε διὰ τῆς ἐρήμου τῆς μεγάλης καὶ τῆς φοβερᾶς ἐκείνης οὗ ὄφις δάκνων καὶ σκορπίος καὶ δίψα οὗ οὐκ ἦν ὕδωρ τοῦ ἐξαγαγόντος σοι ἐκ πέτρας ἀκροτόμου πηγὴν ὕδατος

16 τοῦ ψωμίσαντός σε τὸ μαννα ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὃ οὐκ εἴδησαν οἱ πατέρες σου ἵνα κακώσῃ σε καὶ ἐκπειράσῃ σε καὶ εὖ σε ποιήσῃ ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν σου

17 μὴ εἴπῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ἡ ἰσχύς μου καὶ τὸ κράτος τῆς χειρός μου ἐποίησέν μοι τὴν δύναμιν τὴν μεγάλην ταύτην

18 καὶ μνησθήσῃ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου ὅτι αὐτός σοι δίδωσιν ἰσχὺν τοῦ ποιῆσαι δύναμιν καὶ ἵνα στήσῃ τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ ἣν ὤμοσεν κύριος τοῖς πατράσιν σου ὡς σήμερον

19 καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν λήθῃ ἐπιλάθῃ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου καὶ πορευθῇς ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων καὶ λατρεύσῃς αὐτοῖς καὶ προσκυνήσῃς αὐτοῖς διαμαρτύρομαι ὑμῖν σήμερον τόν τε οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν ὅτι ἀπωλείᾳ ἀπολεῖσθε

20 καθὰ καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ ἔθνη ὅσα κύριος ἀπολλύει πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν οὕτως ἀπολεῖσθε ἀνθ᾽ ὧν οὐκ ἠκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν

1 Omne mandatum, quod ego præcipio tibi hodie, cave diligenter ut facias, ut possitis vivere, et multiplicemini, ingressique possideatis terram, pro qua juravit Dominus patribus vestris.

2 Et recordaberis cuncti itineris, per quod adduxit te Dominus Deus tuus quadraginta annis per desertum, ut affligeret te, atque tentaret, et nota fierent quæ in tuo animo versabantur, utrum custodires mandata illius, an non.

3 Afflixit te penuria, et dedit tibi cibum manna, quod ignorabas tu et patres tui: ut ostenderet tibi quod non in solo pane vivat homo, sed in omni verbo quod egreditur de ore Dei.

4 Vestimentum tuum, quo operiebaris, nequaquam vetustate defecit, et pes tuus non est subtritus, en quadragesimus annus est:

5 ut recogites in corde tuo, quia sicut erudit filium suum homo, sic Dominus Deus tuus erudivit te,

6 ut custodias mandata Domini Dei tui, et ambules in viis ejus, et timeas eum.

7 Dominus enim Deus tuus introducet te in terram bonam, terram rivorum, aquarumque et fontium, in cujus campis et montibus erumpunt fluviorum abyssi:

8 terram frumenti, hordei ac vinearum, in qua ficus, et malogranata, et oliveta nascuntur: terram olei ac mellis,

9 ubi absque ulla penuria comedes panem tuum, et rerum omnium abundantia perfrueris: cujus lapides ferrum sunt, et de montibus ejus æris metalla fodiuntur:

10 ut cum comederis, et satiatus fueris, benedicas Domino Deo tuo pro terra optima, quam dedit tibi.

11 Observa, et cave nequando obliviscaris Domini Dei tui, et negligas mandata ejus atque judicia et cæremonias, quas ego præcipio tibi hodie:

12 ne postquam comederis et satiatus fueris, domos pulchras ædificaveris, et habitaveris in eis,

13 habuerisque armenta boum, et ovium greges, argenti et auri, cunctarumque rerum copiam,

14 elevetur cor tuum, et non reminiscaris Domini Dei tui, qui eduxit te de terra Ægypti, de domo servitutis,

15 et ductor tuus fuit in solitudine magna atque terribili, in qua erat serpens flatu adurens, et scorpio, ac dipsas, et nullæ omnino aquæ: qui eduxit rivos de petra durissima,

16 et cibavit te manna in solitudine, quod nescierunt patres tui. Et postquam afflixit ac probavit, ad extremum misertus est tui,

17 ne diceres in corde tuo: Fortitudo mea, et robur manus meæ, hæc mihi omnia præstiterunt:

18 sed recorderis Domini Dei tui, quod ipse vires tibi præbuerit, ut impleret pactum suum, super quo juravit patribus tuis, sicut præsens indicat dies.

19 Sin autem oblitus Domini Dei tui, secutus fueris deos alienos, coluerisque illos et adoraveris: ecce nunc prædico tibi quod omnino dispereas.

20 Sicut gentes, quas delevit Dominus in introitu tuo, ita et vos peribitis, si inobedientes fueritis voci Domini Dei vestri.
