Moses Commands Obedience

4 “Now, O Israel, listen to ^(A)the statutes and the judgments which I teach you to observe, that you may live, and go in and ^[a]possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers is giving you.

⁵ For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, ^(A)“The man who does those things shall live by them.”

Remember the Lord Your God

8 “Every commandment which I command you today ^(A)you must ^[a]be careful to observe, that you may live and ^(B)multiply,^[b] and go in and possess the land of which the Lord ^[c]swore to your fathers.

^11 (A)And I gave them My statutes and ^[a]showed them My judgments, ^(B)‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them.’

⁵ You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am the Lord.

^14 (A)You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.

^20 (A)teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am ^(B)with you always, even to the end of the age.” ^[a]Amen.

^24 (A)“David My servant shall be king over them, and ^(B)they shall all have one shepherd; ^(C)they shall also walk in My judgments and observe My statutes, and do them.

²⁷ I will put My ^(A)Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

²¹ “Notwithstanding, ^(A)the children rebelled against Me; they did not walk in My statutes, and were not careful to observe My judgments, ^(B)‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them’; but they profaned My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My fury on them and fulfill My anger against them in the wilderness.
