Rewards of Obedience

11 “You shall therefore ^(A)love the Lord your God, and always ^(B)keep His directive, His statutes, His ordinances, and His commandments. ² Know this day ^(C)that I am not speaking with your sons who have not known and who have not seen the ^[a]discipline of the Lord your God—His greatness, His mighty hand, His outstretched arm, ³ and ^(D)His signs and His works which He did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt and to all his land; ⁴ and what He did to Egypt’s army, to its horses and its chariots, ^(E)when He made the water of the ^[b]Red Sea ^[c]engulf them while they were pursuing you, and the Lord ^[d]completely eliminated them; ⁵ and what He did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place; ⁶ and ^(F)what He did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and ^(G)every living thing that ^[e]followed them, among all Israel— ⁷ but your own eyes have seen all the great work of the Lord which He did.
