Deuteronomy 8

1 Every commandment which I command thee this day shall ye take heed to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and enter in and possess the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers.

You shall observe to do all the commandment which I command you this day, that you may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which YHWH swore to your fathers.

2 And thou shalt remember all the way which Jehovah thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or not.

You shall remember all the way which YHWH your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to prove you, and to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments, or not.

3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with the manna, which thou hadst not known, and which thy fathers knew not; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread alone, but by everything that goeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.

He humbled you, and allowed you to be hungry, and fed you with manna, which you did not know, neither did your fathers know; that he might make you know that humankind cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God shall humankind live.

4 Thy clothing grew not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.

Your clothing did not grow old on you, neither did your foot swell, these forty years.

5 And know in thy heart that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy God chasteneth thee;

You shall consider in your heart that as a man chastens his son, so YHWH your God chastens you.

6 and thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.

You shall keep the commandments of YHWH your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.

7 For Jehovah thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of water-brooks, of springs, and of deep waters, that gush forth in the valleys and hills;

For YHWH your God brings you into a good and spacious land, a land of brooks of water, of springs, and underground water flowing into valleys and hills;

8 a land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig-trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey;

a land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey;

9 a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, where thou shalt lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose mountains thou wilt dig copper.

a land in which you shall eat bread without scarcity, and in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.

10 And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless Jehovah thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless YHWH your God for the good land which he has given you.

11 Beware that thou forget not Jehovah thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day;

Beware lest you forget YHWH your God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you this day:

12 lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built and inhabited fine houses,

lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses, and lived in them;

13 and thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied,

and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;

14 then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget Jehovah thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;

then your heart be lifted up, and you forget YHWH your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;

15 who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, [a wilderness of] fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there is no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;

who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who brought you forth water out of the rock of flint;

16 who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;

who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know; that he might humble you, and that he might prove you, to do you good at your latter end:

17 — and thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has procured me this wealth.

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

18 But thou shalt remember Jehovah thy God, that it is he who giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

But you shall remember YHWH 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 at this day.

19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget Jehovah thy God, and go after other gods, and serve them, and bow down to them, I testify against you this day that ye shall utterly perish.

It shall be, if you shall forget YHWH your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.

20 As the nations which Jehovah is causing to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah your God.

As the nations that YHWH makes to perish before you, so you shall perish; because you wouldn't listen to the voice of YHWH your God.
