Remember God’s Power

11 “Therefore love the Lord your God and be very careful to keep his injunctions, statutes, ordinances, and commands all the time.^{[a] 2} Keep in mind today that I am not speaking to your children, who neither were aware of nor did they witness the discipline of the Lord your God—that is, his great and far-reaching power, ³ including: the signs and works that he did within Egypt to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and to all his land; ⁴ what he did to the Egyptian army, to its horses, and to its chariots, when he caused the water of the Reed^[b] Sea to engulf them as they pursued you; how the Lord destroyed them, even to this day; ⁵ what he did for you in the desert until you came to this place; ⁶ and what he did to Eliab’s sons Dathan and Abiram, descendants of Reuben, when the ground opened up and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing belonging to them in the full sight^[c] of Israel. ⁷ Your very own eyes saw all the great things that the Lord did.”
