Moses Commands Obedience

1 “And now, O Israel, listen to ^wthe statutes and the rules¹ that I am teaching you, and do them, ^xthat you may live, and go in and take possession of the land that the Lord, the God of your fathers, is giving you.

46 he said to them, ^r“Take to heart all the words by which I am warning you today, ^sthat you may command them to your children, that they may be careful to do all the words of this law. 47 For it is no empty word for you, ^tbut your very life, and by this word you shall live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.”
