1. Israel, listen to these laws and teachings! If you obey them, you will live, and you will go in and take the land that the Lord is giving you. He is the God your ancestors worshipped,
2. and now he is your God. I am telling you everything he has commanded, so don't add anything or take anything away.
3. You saw how he killed everyone who worshipped the god Baal-Peor.
4. But all of you who were faithful to the Lord your God are still alive today.
9. You must be very careful not to forget the things you have seen God do for you. Keep reminding yourselves, and tell your children and grandchildren as well.
10. Do you remember the day you stood in the Lord's presence at Mount Sinai? The Lord said, “Moses, bring the people of Israel here. I want to speak to them so they will obey me as long as they live, and so they will teach their children to obey me too.”
