1 And now, O Israel, listen to the statutes and ordinances that I teach you? to observe, that you? may live and go in and possess the land that YHWH, God of your? fathers, is giving to you?. 2 You? shall not add to the word that I command you?, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of YHWH your? God that I command you?. 3 Your? eyes have seen what YHWH did at Baal-peor, for all the men who walked after Baal-Peor YHWH your God has destroyed from among you. 4 And you?, the ones clinging to YHWH your? God, are alive, all of you? today. 5 See, I have taught you? statutes and ordinances as YHWH my God commanded me, that you should act accordingly in the midst of the land that you? are going there to possess it. 6 Therefore, be careful and observe them, for that is your? wisdom and your? understanding in the eyes of the peoples who will hear all these statutes and say, “Surely a wise and understanding people is this great nation.” 7 For what is the great nation that has a god near to it as YHWH our God is to us in all that we call upon Him? 8 And what is the great nation that has righteous statutes and ordinances according to all this law that I set before you? this day?
