Deuteronomy 6:10-17 New English Translation (NET)

10. Then when the Lord your God brings you to the land he promised your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to give you – a land with large, fine cities you did not build,

11. houses filled with choice things you did not accumulate, hewn out cisterns you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant – and you eat your fill,

12. be careful not to forget the Lord who brought you out of Egypt, that place of slavery.

13. You must revere the Lord your God, serve him, and take oaths using only his name.

14. You must not go after other gods, those of the surrounding peoples,

15. for the Lord your God, who is present among you, is a jealous God and his anger will erupt against you and remove you from the land.

16. You must not put the Lord your God to the test as you did at Massah.

17. Keep his commandments very carefully, as well as the stipulations and statutes he commanded you to observe.
