Deuteronomy 11
TS2009 version
יהוה = YHWH
Mitsrayim = Egypt
Yardĕn = Jordan
1“And you shall love יהוה your Elohim and guard His charge //the charge//: even His laws, and His right-rulings, and His commands, always.
His charge, His statutes, His ordinances and His mitzvot
2“And you shall know today – for it is not your children who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of יהוה your Elohim, His greatness, His strong hand and His outstretched arm,
3and His signs, and His works which He had done in the midst of Mitsrayim, to Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim, and to all his land;
4and that which He had done to the army of Mitsrayim, to their horses and their chariots, when He made the waters of the Sea of Reeds overflow them as they pursued you, and how יהוה has destroyed them to this day;
5and what He had done for you in the wilderness till you came to this place;
...
7“For yours are the eyes that saw all the great work of יהוה, which He did.
8“And you shall guard every command which I command you today, so that you are strong, and shall go in, and shall possess the land which you are passing over to possess,
and ye have kept all the command which I am commanding thee to-day, so that ye are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land whither ye are passing over to possess it,
9and to prolong your days in the land which יהוה swore to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
...
13And it shall be that if you diligently obey My commands which I command you today, to love יהוה your Elohim and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your being,
...
16Guard yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other mighty ones and bow down to them.
17Then the displeasure of יהוה shall burn against you, and He shall shut up the heavens, and there be no rain, and the land not give its increase. And you shall perish quickly from the good land which יהוה is giving you.
18And you shall lay up these Words of Mine in your heart and in your being, and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
19And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up,
20and shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
21so that your days and the days of your children are increased on the soil of which יהוה swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens on the earth.
22For if you diligently guard all these commands which I command you, to do it, to love יהוה your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, and to cling to Him,
23then יהוה shall drive out all these nations before you, and you shall dispossess greater and stronger nations than you.
...
26See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse:
27the blessing, when you obey the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I command you today;
28and the curse, if you do not obey the commands of יהוה your Elohim, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other mighty ones which you have not known.
...
31For you are passing over the Yardĕn to go in to possess the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it,
32and shall guard to do all the laws //the statutes// and right-rulings which I am setting before you today.’
As Christians, there are many laws and right-rulings which do not apply to us. And we do not keep those that do because we have to. Only the blood of the Lamb is our redemption. We keep them because we love Him.
