And now, Israel, listen to the statutes and to the judgments which I am teaching you to do, so that you may live and go in, and possess the land which Jehovah the God of your fathers is giving to you.

You shall not add to the Word which I command you, nor take from it, to keep the commandments of Jehovah your God which I command you.

Your eyes have seen that which Jehovah has done in Baal-peor. For Jehovah your God has destroyed them from among you, the men that followed Baal-peor.

And you who held fast to Jehovah your God are alive today, all of you.

Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, as Jehovah my God has commanded me, to do them , in the midst of the land where you are going in, to possess it,

and you shall keep and do them , for it shall be your wisdom and your understanding before the eyes of the peoples who hear all these statutes. And they shall say, This great nation is a people wise and understanding.

For who is a great nation whose God is coming near to them, as Jehovah your God is , in all our calling on Him?

And who is a great nation whose statutes and judgments are as righteous as all this Law which I set before you today?
