13 Fear the Lord thy God, and serve Him alone, and swear by His name.

14 Do not follow other gods, the gods of the nations that will be around you;

15 For the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God; lest the anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against thee, and he destroy thee from off the face of the earth.

16 Do not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted him in Mass.

17 Ye shall keep fast the commandments of the Lord your God, and his statutes, and the statutes which he has commanded you;

18 And thou shalt do what is just and good in the sight of the LORD, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest enter in, and possess the good land which the LORD swore to thy fathers,

19 and that he may drive away all thy enemies from before thee, as the Lord hath spoken.

20 If your son shall ask you in the time to come, saying, 'What are these statutes, statutes, and laws which the LORD your God has commanded you?'

21 Then you shall say to your son, 'We were Pharaoh's servants in Egypt, but the Lord [God] brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand,

22 и явил Господь [Бог] знамения и чудеса великие и казни над Египтом, над фараоном и над всем домом его [и над войском его] пред глазами нашими;

23 а нас вывел оттуда [Господь, Бог наш,] чтобы ввести нас и дать нам землю, которую [Господь, Бог наш,] клялся отцам нашим [дать нам];

24 и заповедал нам Господь исполнять все постановления сии, чтобы мы боялись Господа, Бога нашего, дабы хорошо было нам во все дни, дабы сохранить нашу жизнь, как и теперь;

25 и в сем будет наша праведность, если мы будем стараться исполнять все сии заповеди [закона] пред лицем Господа, Бога нашего, как Он заповедал нам».
