(For the Lord thy God [is] a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth (6:15) Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted [him] in Massah (6:16) Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee (6:17) And thou shalt do [that which is] right and good in the sight of the Lord: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, (6:18) To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the Lord hath spoken (6:19) [And] when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What [mean] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord our God hath commanded you? (6:20) Then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh's bondmen in Egypt; and the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand: (6:21) And the Lord showed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes: (6:22) And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers (6:23) And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as [it is] at this day (6:24) And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us
(6:25)
