Book 05 : DEUTERONOMY - Chapter 008
008:001
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led
thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and
to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou
wouldest keep his commandments, or no
008:002
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee
with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers
know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by
bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth
of the LORD doth man live
008:003
Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot
swell, these forty years
008:004
Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man
chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee
008:005
Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy
God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him
008:006
For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of
brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of
valleys and hills
008:007
A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and
pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey
008:008
A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou
shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron,
and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass
008:009
When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the
LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee
008:010
Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping
his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I
command thee this day
008:011
Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly
houses, and dwelt therein
008:012
And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and
thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied
008:013
Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy
God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from
the house of bondage
008:014
Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness,
wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where
there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the
rock of flint
008:015
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
008:016
And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine
hand hath gotten me this wealth
008:017
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that
giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his
covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day
008:018
And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God,
and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I
testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish
008:019
As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so
shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the
voice of the LORD your God
