⁹ “However, take care^[a] for yourself and watch your inner self^[b] closely, so that you do not forget the things that your eyes have seen, so that they do not slip from your mind all the days of your life; and you shall make them known to your children and to your grandchildren.^{[c] 10} Remember the day that you stood before^[d] Yahweh your God at Horeb when Yahweh said to me,^[e] ‘Summon for me the people so that I can tell them my words, that they may learn to fear me all of the days they are alive on the earth and so that they may teach their children.’ ¹¹ And so you came near, and you stood under the mountain, and the mountain was burning with fire up to the heart of the heaven, dark with a very thick cloud.^{[f] 12} And Yahweh spoke to you from the midst of the fire; you heard^[g] a sound of words, but you did not see^[h] a form—only a voice. ¹³ And he declared to you his covenant, the Ten Commandments,^[i] which he charged you to observe,^[j] and he wrote them on the two tablets of stone. ¹⁴ And Yahweh charged me at that time to teach you rules and regulations for your observation of them^[k] in the land that you are about to cross into^[l] to take possession of it.
