³² “For ^(A)ask now concerning the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that God created man on the earth, and ask ^(B)from one end of heaven to the other, whether any great thing like this has happened, or anything like it has been heard. ^33 (C)Did any people ever hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and live? ³⁴ Or did God ever try to go and take for Himself a nation from the midst of another nation, ^(D)by trials, ^(E)by signs, by wonders, by war, ^(F)by a mighty hand and ^(G)an outstretched arm, ^(H)and by great ^[a]terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes? ³⁵ To you it was shown, that you might know that the Lord Himself is God; ^(I)there is none other besides Him. ^36 (J)Out of heaven He let you hear His voice, that He might instruct you; on earth He showed you His great fire, and you heard His words out of the midst of the fire. ³⁷ And because ^(K)He loved your fathers, therefore He chose their ^[b]descendants after them; and ^(L)He brought you out of Egypt with His Presence, with His mighty power, ^38 (M)driving out from before you nations greater and mightier than you, to bring you in, to give you their land as an inheritance, as it is this day. ³⁹ Therefore know this day, and consider it in your heart, that ^(N)the Lord Himself is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other. ^40 (O)You shall therefore keep His statutes and His commandments which I command you today, that ^[c]it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may ^[d]prolong your days in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for all time.”
