The entire mitzvah that I am commanding you today, are you to guard so as to fulfill; in order that you live and multiply and arrive to inherit the land that Adonoy swore to your forefathers.

You are to recall the entire way on which Adonoy, your God, led you these forty years in the wilderness; in order to oppress you, to test you, to know what is in your heart—will you guard His commandments or not?

He oppressed you and made you hungry, and He fed you the mon that neither you knew nor your forefathers knew, in order to inform you that not by bread alone does man live, rather by the entire expression of Adonoy’s word does man live.

Your garment did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years.

You will know with your heart that the way a man trains his son does Adonoy, your God, train you.

You are to guard the commandments of Adonoy, your God, to go in His ways and to fear Him.

For Adonoy, your God, is bringing you to a good land, a land with streams of water, springs and groundwater that emerge in valley and hill.

A land of wheat and barley, and grapes and figs and pomegranates; a land of olives [yeilding oil] and [producing] honey.

A land where you will not eat bread in poverty, you will lack nothing there; a land whose stones are iron, and from whose hills you will mine copper.

You will eat and be full, and you will bless Adonoy, your God, for the good land He has given you.

Look out for yourself lest you forget [the fear of] Adonoy, your God, to not guard His commandments, His laws, and His statutes that I am commanding you today.

Lest you eat and be full, and build good [beautiful] houses and live [in them.]

And your cattle and your sheep multiply, and silver and gold multiply for you, and everything you own multiplies.

And your pride increases, and you forget [the fear of] Adonoy, your God, Who took you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery;

Who led you through the wilderness—the great and awesome[one]—[a place of] snake[s], serpent[s] and scorpion[s], and thirst[ing] [a place] where there is no water; Who took water out for you from solid [mighty] rock;

Who fed you mon in the wilderness that your forefathers had not known, in order to oppress you and in order to test you, to ultimately benefit you—

And you think, ‘‘My strength and the power of my hand have acquired this wealth for me.’’

Recall Adonoy, your God, for it is He Who gives you counsel to acquire wealth, in order to establish His covenant that He swore to your forefathers this day.

When and if you forget [the fear of] Adonoy, your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and bow to them, I testify about you today that you will surely be destroyed.

Like the nations that Adonoy is destroying before you, so will you be destroyed, as a consequence of your not heeding [the word of] Adonoy, your God.
