9. In that place, without any need, you shall eat your bread and enjoy an abundance of all things: where the stones are like iron, and where ore for brass is dug out of its mountains.
10. So then, when you have eaten and been satisfied, you should bless the Lord your God for the excellent land which he has given to you.
11. Be observant and cautious, lest at sometime you may forget the Lord your God, and neglect his commandments, as well as the judgments and ceremonies, which I instruct to you this day.
12. Otherwise, after you have eaten and been satisfied, and have built beautiful houses and have lived in them,
13. and have obtained herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep, and a plentitude of gold and silver and all things,
14. your heart might be lifted up, and you might not remember the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude,
15. and who was your leader in the great and terrible wilderness, in which there was the serpent with a burning breath, and the scorpion, and the snake of thirst, and no waters at all. He led streams out of the hardest rock,
16. and he nourished you in the wilderness with Manna, which your fathers had not known. And after he had afflicted and tested you, in the very end, he took pity on you.
17. Otherwise, you might say in your heart: 'My own strength, and the power of my own hand, have brought forth all these things for me.'
18. But remember the Lord your God, that he himself has provided you with strength, so that he may fulfill his covenant, about which he swore to your fathers, just as the present day reveals.
19. But if you forget the Lord your God, so that you follow foreign gods, and serve and adore them: behold, I now foretell to you that you shall utterly perish.
