And it shall be, when Jehovah your God shall have brought you into the land of which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give you great and good cities which you have not built,

then be on guard that you not forget Jehovah who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

When you have eaten and been filled, then you shall bless Jehovah your God for the good land which He has given you.

lest, when you have eaten and been filled, and have built beautiful houses and dwelt in them;

when your heart is lifted up, and you forget Jehovah your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;

When I have brought them to the land flowing with milk and honey, of which I have sworn to their fathers, and they have eaten and filled themselves and grown fat, then they will have turned to other gods and served them; and they will have provoked Me and broken My covenant.

But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked; you grew fat, you grew thick, you are gorged! And he forsook the God who had made him, and treated with contempt the Rock of his salvation.

And they captured strong cities and a rich land, and took possession of houses full of all goods, wells already dug, vineyards, olive groves, and fruit trees in abundance. So they ate and were filled and grew fat, and lived luxuriously in Your great goodness.

Nevertheless they were disobedient and rebelled against You, cast Your Law behind their backs and killed Your prophets, who testified against them to turn them to Yourself; and they worked great blasphemies.

If I have made gold my hope, or said to fine gold, you are my confidence;

if I have observed the sun when it shines, or the moon moving in splendor,

this also would be a perversity deserving of judgment, for I would have denied the Mighty God above.

O generation, see the Word of Jehovah. Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of darkness? Why do My people say, We roam freely; we will come no more to You?

Your fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed upon you, declares the Lord Jehovah.

But you trusted in your own beauty, committed adultery because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it.

Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

And they were haughty and committed abomination before Me; therefore I took them away as I saw fit.

This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the command by the word of the holy ones, in order that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men and gives it to whomever He wills, and sets up over it the lowest of men.

The king spoke and said, Is this not great Babylon that I have built for the house of the kingdom, by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?

When they had pasture, they were filled. They were filled, and their heart was exalted. Therefore they have forgotten Me.

And the people kept shouting, The voice of a god and not of a man!

And immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he did not give glory to God. And he was eaten by worms and died.

And Pharaoh said, Who is Jehovah, that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know Jehovah; neither will I let Israel go.

Now therefore, do not let Hezekiah deceive you nor entice you like this, and do not believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of my hand or the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you out of my hand.

He had also written letters to reproach Jehovah the God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other lands have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my hand.

They do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy his soul when he is hungry.

But if he is found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the wealth of his house.

For the scepter of the wicked shall not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, that the righteous not reach out their hands to iniquity.

He who shares with a thief hates his own soul; he hears the oath, but does not confess.

You shall not take the name of Jehovah your God in vain, for Jehovah will not leave unpunished one who takes His name in vain.

If a soul sins and has heard the utterance of an oath, and is a witness, whether he has seen or known of the matter; if he does not report it, he bears guilt.

And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man!

Then he began to curse and swear, saying, I do not know the Man! And immediately a rooster crowed.
