Deuteronomy 申命记08
英语课
8Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land that the Lord promised on oath to your forefathers 1.
2Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to humble 2 you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.
3He humbled 3 you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord .
4Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell 4 during these forty years.
5Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the Lord your God disciplines you.
6Observe the commands of the Lord your God, walking in his ways and revering 5 him.
7For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land-a land with streams and pools of water, with springs flowing in the valleys and hills;
8a land with wheat and barley 6, vines and fig 7 trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey;
9a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig copper 8 out of the hills.
10When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you.
11Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day.
12Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down,
13and when your herds 9 and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied,
14then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
15He led you through the vast and dreadful desert, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions 10. He brought you water out of hard rock.
16He gave you manna to eat in the desert, something your fathers had never known, to humble and to test you so that in the end it might go well with you.
17You may say to yourself, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me."
18But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant 11, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today.
19If you ever forget the Lord your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.
20Like the nations the Lord destroyed before you, so you will be destroyed for not obeying the Lord your God.
