3 ¶ Hearºª therefore, O Israel,º and observeºª to doºª [it]; that² it may be wellºª with thee, and that² ye may increaseºª mightily,º as² the LORDº Godº of thy fathersº hath promisedºª thee, in the landº that flowethºª with milkº and honey.º 4 Hear,ºª O Israel:º The LORDº our Godº [is] oneº LORD:º 5 And thou shalt loveºª² the LORDº thy Godº with all² thine heart,º and with all² thy soul,º and with all² thy might.º 6 And these² words,º which² I² commandºª thee this day,º shall be² in² thine heart:º 7 And thou shalt teach them diligentlyºª unto thy children,º and shalt talkºª of them when thou sittestºª in thine house,º and when thou walkest¹ª² by the way,º and when thou liest down,ºª and when thou risest up.ºª 8 And thou shalt bindºª them for a signº upon² thine hand,º and they shall be² as frontletsº between² thine eyes.º 9 And thou shalt writeºª them upon² the postsº of thy house,º and on thy gates.º 10 And it shall be,² when² the LORDº thy Godº shall have broughtºª thee into² the landº which² he swareºª unto thy fathers,º to Abraham,º to Isaac,º and to Jacob,º to giveºª thee greatº and goodlyº cities,º which² thou buildedstºª not,² 11 And housesº fullº of all² goodº [things], which² thou filledstºª not,² and wellsº digged,ºª which² thou diggedstºª not,² vineyardsº and olive trees,º which² thou plantedstºª not;² when thou shalt have eatenºª and be full;ºª 12 [Then] bewareºª lest² thou forgetºª² the LORD,º which² brought thee forthºª out of the landº² of Egypt,º from the houseº² of bondage.º 13 Thou shalt fearºª² the LORDº thy God,º and serveºª him, and shalt swearºª by his name.º 14 Ye shall not² go¹ª² afterº otherº gods,º of the godsº² of the peopleº which² [are] round aboutº you; 15 (For² the LORDº thy Godº [is] a jealousº Godº amongº you) lest² the angerº of the LORDº thy Godº be kindledºª against thee, and destroyºª thee from off²² the faceº of the earth.º
