²⁰ “When your child^[a] asks you in the future, saying,^[b] ‘What is the meaning of the legal provisions and the rules and the regulations that Yahweh our God commanded for you?’ ²¹ Then you shall say to your child,^[c] ‘We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, and Yahweh brought us out from Egypt with a strong hand. ²² And Yahweh gave great and awesome signs and wonders in Egypt against Pharaoh and against his entire household in our presence.^{[d] 23} But he brought us out from there in order to bring us here to give us the land that he swore to our ancestors.^{[e] 24} And so Yahweh commanded us to observe all of these rules and to revere Yahweh our God for our benefit^[f] all the days that we live,^[g] as it is today.^{[h] 25} And it shall be righteousness for us if we diligently observe and do all of this commandment before^[i] Yahweh our God, as he has commanded us.’
