Deuteronomy 8 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
11 Observe, and beware lest at any time thou forget the Lord thy God, and neglect his commandments and judgments and ceremonies, which I command thee this day:
12 lest after thou hast eaten and art filled, hast built goodly houses, and dwelled in them,
13 and shalt have herds of oxen and flocks of sheep, of gold and silver, and of all things plenty,
14 thy heart be lifted up, and thou remember not the Lord thy God, that brought thee out of the Land of AEgypt, out of the house of servitude:
17 lest thou shouldst say in thy heart: Mine own force, & the strength of mine own hand, have achieved all these things for me.
18 But remember the Lord thy God, that he hath given thee strength, that he might fulfill his covenant, concerning which he sware to thy fathers, as this present day sheweth.
19 But if forgetting the Lord thy God, thou shalt follow strange gods, and shalt serve and adore them: behold now I foretell thee that thou shalt perish utterly.
20 As the Nations, which our Lord destroyed at thine entry, so shall you also perish, if you be disobedient to the voice of the Lord your God.
