²⁴ And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

³⁹ And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

² The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.

¹ All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers.

¹ Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.

⁵ For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

²¹ What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.

²² But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

³³ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

¹⁰ Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

⁴ By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.

¹² If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

⁹ Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

⁷ If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?

⁸ Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.

¹² And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,

¹³ To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?

³ And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.

⁴ But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
