and laws the Lord your God directed
me to teach you to observe in the land
that you are crossing the Jordan to
possess,2 so that you, your children
and their children after them may
fear the Lord your God as long as
you live by keeping all His decrees
and commands that I give you, and so
that you may enjoy long life.

4. DEUTERONOMY 6:1-12

obey so that it may go well with you
and that you may increase greatly in
a land flowing with milk and honey, just
as the Lord, the God of your
ancestors, promised you.
4 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God,
the Lord is one.

5. DEUTERONOMY 6:1-12
6 These commandments that I give you
today are to be on your
hearts.7 Impress them on your
children. Talk about them when you
sit at home and when you walk along
the road, when you lie down and when
you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols on
your hands and bind them on your
foreheads. 9 Write them on the
doorframes of your houses and on
your gates.

6. DEUTERONOMY 6:1-12
10 When the Lord your God brings you into
the land He swore to your fathers, to
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you a
land with large flourishing cities you did not
build, 11 houses filled with all kinds of good
things you did not provide, wells you did not
dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did
not plant then when you eat and are
satisfied, 12 be careful that you do not
forget the Lord, who brought you out of
Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

Yahweh at sa inyong mga anak at sa
mga susunod na salinlahi upang

inyong buhay.

sunding mabuti. Kung magkagayo'y
sasagana kayo, at darami ang inyong
lahi pagdating ninyo sa lupaing
ipinangako ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ng
inyong mga ninuno, sa lupaing
mayaman at sagana sa lahat ng
bagay.

nang buong puso, buong kaluluwa at
buong lakas. 6 Ang mga utos niya'y
itanim ninyo sa inyong puso. 7 Ituro
ninyo ito sa inyong mga anak; pag-
aralan ninyo ito sa inyong tahanan, sa
inyong paglalakbay, sa inyong
pagtulog sa gabi, at sa inyong
pagbangon sa umaga.

inyong bahay at mga tarangkahan. 10

sa lupaing ipinangako niya sa inyong
mga ninunong sina Abraham, Isaac at
Jacob. Maninirahan kayo sa malalaki
at magagandang lunsod na hindi kayo
ang nagtatag.

11. DEUTERONOMY 6:1-12
11 Titira kayo sa mga tahanang sagana sa
lahat ng bagay ngunit hindi ninyo
pinaghirapan. Iinom kayo ng tubig na galing
sa mga balong hindi ninyo hinukay.
Mamimitas kayo sa mga ubasan at sa mga
olibong hindi ninyo itinanim. Kung kayo'y

kalilimutan si Yahweh na naglabas sa inyo sa
Egipto, sa bayan ng pagkaalipin.
