Deuteronomy 5:26-33 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

26. For what mortal has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of fire, as we have, and lived?

27. You go closer and listen to all that the Lord, our God, will say, and then tell us what the Lord, our God, tells you; we will listen and obey.”

28. The Lord heard your words as you were speaking to me and said to me, I have heard the words these people have spoken to you, which are all well said.

29. Would that they might always be of such a mind, to fear me and to keep all my commandments! Then they and their descendants would prosper forever.

30. Go, tell them: Return to your tents.

31. Then you stand here near me and I will give you all the commandments, the statutes and the ordinances; you must teach them, that they may observe them in the land I am giving them to possess.

32. Be careful, therefore, to do as the Lord, your God, has commanded you, not turning aside to the right or to the left,

33. but following exactly the way that the Lord, your God, commanded you that you may live and prosper, and may have long life in the land which you are to possess.
