Deuteronomy 6:8-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

8. Write them down and tie them to your hands as a sign. Tie them on your forehead to remind you.

9. Write them on your doors and gates.

10. The Lord your God will bring you into the land. He promised it to your ancestors, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He will give it to you. The land has large, growing cities you did not build.

11. The houses there are full of good things that you did not buy. They have wells you did not dig. There are vineyards and olive trees you did not plant. You will eat as much as you want.

12. But be careful! Do not forget the Lord. He brought you out of the land of Egypt where you were slaves.

13. Respect the Lord your God. Serve only him. Make your promises in his name.

14. Do not worship other gods as the people around you do.
