Deuteronomy 6:20-25

New King James Version

^20 (A)“When your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is the meaning of the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments which the Lord our God has commanded you?’ ²¹ then you shall say to your son: ‘We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, and the Lord brought us out of Egypt ^(B)with a mighty hand; ²² and the Lord showed signs and wonders before our eyes, great and severe, against Egypt, Pharaoh, and all his household. ²³ Then He brought us out from there, that He might bring us in, to give us the land of which He ^[a]swore to our fathers. ²⁴ And the Lord commanded us to ^[b]observe all these ^[c]statutes, ^(C)to fear the Lord our God, ^(D)for our good always, that ^(E)He might preserve us alive, as it is ^[d]this day. ²⁵ Then ^(F)it will be righteousness for us, if we are careful to observe all these commandments before the Lord our God, as He has commanded us.’
