Deuteronomy 8 (NET) New English Translation

1 You must keep carefully all these commandments I am giving you today so that you may live, increase in number, and go in and occupy the land that the LORD promised to your ancestors.
2 Remember the whole way by which he has brought you these forty years through the desert so that he might, by humbling you, test you to see if you have it within you to keep his commandments or not.
3 So he humbled you by making you hungry and then feeding you with unfamiliar manna. He did this to teach you that humankind cannot live by bread alone, but also by everything that comes from the LORD's mouth.
4 Your clothing did not wear out nor did your feet swell all these forty years.
5 Be keenly aware that just as a parent disciplines his child, the LORD your God disciplines you.
6 So you must keep his commandments, live according to his standards, and revere him.
7 For the LORD your God is bringing you to a good land, a land of brooks, springs, and fountains flowing forth in valleys and hills,
8 a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates, of olive trees and honey,
9 a land where you may eat food in plenty and find no lack of anything, a land whose stones are iron and from whose hills you can mine copper.
10 You will eat your fill and then praise the LORD your God because of the good land he has given you.
11 Be sure you do not forget the LORD your God by not keeping his commandments, ordinances, and statutes that I am giving you today.
12 When you eat your fill, when you build and occupy good houses,
13 when your cattle and flocks increase, when you have plenty of silver and gold, and when you have abundance of everything,
14 be sure you do not feel self-important and forget the LORD your God who brought you from the land of Egypt, the place of slavery,
15 and who brought you through the great, fearful desert of venomous serpents and scorpions, an arid place with no water. He made water flow from a flint rock and
16 fed you in the desert with manna (which your ancestors had never before known) so that he might by humbling you test you and eventually bring good to you.
17 Be careful not to say, "My own ability and skill have gotten me this wealth."
18 You must remember the LORD your God, for he is the one who gives ability to get wealth; if you do this he will confirm his covenant that he made by oath to your ancestors, even as he has to this day.
19 Now if you forget the LORD your God at all and follow other gods, worshiping and prostrating yourselves before them, I testify to you today that you will surely be annihilated.
20 Just like the nations the LORD is about to destroy from your sight, so he will do to you because you would not obey him.

2 And thou shalt remember H2142 all H3605 NMS the way H1870 D-NMS which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS led H1980 thee these H2088 DPRO forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS in the wilderness H4057 , to H4616 L-CONJ humble H6031 thee , and to prove H5254 thee , to know H3045 L-VQFC what H834 RPRO was in thine heart H3824 , whether thou wouldest keep H8104 his commandments H4687 , or H518 PART not H3808 ADV .
3 And he humbled H6031 thee , and suffered thee to hunger H7456 , and fed H398 thee with H854 manna H4478 , which H834 RPRO thou knewest H3045 VQQ2MS not H3808 NADV , neither H3808 W-NADV did thy fathers H1 know H3045 VQQ2MS ; that H4616 L-CONJ he might make thee know H3045 VQQ2MS that H3588 CONJ man H120 D-NMS doth not H3808 NADV live H2421 by H5921 PREP bread H3899 only H905 L-CMS-3MS , but H3588 CONJ by H5921 PREP every H3605 NMS word that proceedeth out H4161 NMS of the mouth H6310 CMS-1MS of the LORD H3068 EDS doth man H120 D-NMS live H2421 .
4 Thy raiment H8071 waxed not old H1086 upon H5921 thee , neither H3808 NADV did thy foot H7272 swell H1216 , these H2088 DPRO forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS .
5 Thou shalt also consider H3045 W-VQY2MS in H5973 PREP thine heart H3824 , that H3588 CONJ , as H834 K-RPRO a man H376 NMS chasteneth H3256 his son H1121 CMS-3MS , so the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS chasteneth H3256 thee .

7 For H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS bringeth H935 thee into H413 PREP a good H2896 NFS land H776 GFS , a land H776 GFS of brooks H5158 CMP of water H4325 NMD , of fountains H5869 and depths H8415 that spring out H3318 of valleys H1237 and hills H2022 ;
8 A land H776 GFS of wheat H2406 NFS , and barley H8184 , and vines H1612 , and fig trees H8384 , and pomegranates H7416 ; a land H776 of oil H8081 NMS olive H2132 , and honey H1706 ;

10 When thou hast eaten H398 W-VQQ2MS and art full H7646 , then thou shalt bless H1288 the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS for H5921 PREP the good H2896 land H776 D-GFS which H834 RPRO he hath given H5414 thee .
11 Beware H8104 VNI2MS that thou forget not H6435 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS , in not H1115 L-NPAR keeping H8104 VQI2MS his commandments H4687 , and his judgments H4941 , and his statutes H2708 , which H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS command H6680 thee this day H3117 D-NMS :
12 Lest H6435 CONJ when thou hast eaten H398 VQY2MS and art full H7646 , and hast built H1129 goodly H2896 houses H1004 , and dwelt H3427 therein ;
13 And when thy herds H1241 and thy flocks H6629 multiply H7235 , and thy silver H3701 W-CMS and thy gold H2091 is multiplied H7235 VQQ3MS , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO thou hast is multiplied H7235 ;
14 Then thine heart H3824 be lifted up H7311 , and thou forget H7911 the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS , which brought thee forth H3318 out of the land H776 M-NFS of Egypt H4714 EFS , from the house H1004 of bondage H5650 ;
15 Who led H1980 thee through that great H1419 D-AMS and terrible H3372 wilderness H4057 , wherein were fiery H8314 serpents H5175 NMS , and scorpions H6137 , and drought H6774 , where H834 RPRO there was no H369 ADV water H4325 NMD ; who brought thee forth H3318 water H4325 NMD out of the rock H6697 of flint H2496 ;
16 Who fed H398 thee in the wilderness H4057 with manna H4478 , which H834 RPRO thy fathers H1 knew H3045 not H3808 NADV , that H4616 L-CONJ he might humble H6031 thee , and that H4616 he might prove H5254 thee , to do thee good H3190 at thy latter end H319 ;
17 And thou say H559 in thine heart H3824 , My power H3581 CMS-1MS and the might H6108 of mine hand H3027 CFS-1MS hath gotten H6213 VQQ3MS me this H2088 D-PMS wealth H2428 .
18 But thou shalt remember H2142 the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS : for H3588 CONJ it is he H1931 PPRO-3MS that giveth H5414 D-VQPMS thee power H3581 CMS to get H6213 L-VQFC wealth H2428 , that H4616 L-CONJ he may establish H6965 his covenant H1285 which H834 RPRO he swore H7650 unto thy fathers H1 , as it is this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 .
19 And it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS , if H518 PART thou do at all forget H7911 the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS , and walk H1980 after H310 PREP other H312 AMP gods H430 CMP-2MS , and serve H5647 them , and worship H7812 them , I testify H5749 against you this day H3117 D-AMS that H3588 CONJ ye shall surely perish H6 .
20 As the nations H1471 which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS destroyeth H6 before your face H6440 , so H3651 ADV shall ye perish H6 ; because H6118 ye would not H3808 NADV be obedient H8085 unto the voice H6963 B-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS your God H430 .
