申命记 8
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
不可忘记耶和华
8 “你们要谨遵我今日吩咐你们的一切诫命，以便能够存活，生养众多，并且得到耶和华起誓要赐给你们祖先的土地。 2 要记住这四十年来你们的上帝耶和华怎样在旷野引领你们，祂磨炼你们、考验你们，好知道你们的心意如何、肯不肯遵守祂的诫命。 3 祂让你们忍饥挨饿，然后赐给你们祖祖辈辈从未见过的吗哪吃，为了使你们明白人活着不是单靠食物，乃是靠祂口中的每一句话。 4 这四十年来，你们的衣服没有穿破，双脚也没有走肿。 5 你们心里要明白，你们的上帝耶和华管教你们，如同父亲管教儿子。
6 “所以，你们要遵守你们的上帝耶和华的诫命，行祂的道，敬畏祂， 7 因为祂要带你们到一个佳美之地。那里的谷中和山间流淌着条条溪流、股股清泉； 8 那里盛产大麦、小麦、葡萄、无花果、石榴、橄榄油和蜂蜜； 9 那里食物充足，一无所缺；那里矿产资源丰富，石头就是铁，山中可以采铜。 10 你们吃饱喝足后，要赞美你们的上帝耶和华，因为祂赐给你们那佳美之地。
11 “你们要谨慎，免得忘记你们的上帝耶和华，不遵守我今天吩咐你们的诫命、典章和律例。 12 当你们丰衣足食、居室华美、 13 牛羊众多、金银日增的时候， 14 切勿心骄气傲，忘记你们的上帝耶和华。祂把你们从受奴役之地——埃及救出来， 15 带领你们走过干旱、可怕、毒蛇和蝎子出没的大旷野。祂使坚硬的磐石流出水来给你们喝， 16 在旷野中把你们祖先从未见过的吗哪赐给你们吃，为要磨炼你们、考验你们，使你们最终得到益处。 17 你们切勿以为是凭自己的双手和能力致富的。 18 要记住，是你们的上帝耶和华赐给你们致富的能力，为要坚立祂给你们祖先的誓约，正如今日的情形。
19 “我今天警告你们，如果你们忘记你们的上帝耶和华，去追随、供奉、祭拜其他神明，你们必灭亡。 20 如果你们不听从你们的上帝耶和华，你们必灭亡，正如祂使列国在你们面前灭亡一样。

Do Not Forget Yahweh Your God
8 “The entire commandment that I am commanding you today you shall be careful to do, that you (A)may live and multiply, and go in and possess the land which Yahweh swore to give to your fathers. 2 (B)And you shall remember all the way which Yahweh your God has (C)led you in the wilderness these forty years, that He might humble you, (D)testing you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. 3 And He humbled you and let you be hungry and fed you with manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that (E)man does not live by bread alone, but by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of Yahweh. 4 (F)Your clothing did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years. 5 (G)Thus you shall know in your heart that Yahweh your God was disciplining you just as a man disciplines his son. 6 So you shall keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, to walk in His ways and to [a]fear Him. 7 For (H)Yahweh your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing forth in valleys and hills; 8 a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; 9 a land where you will eat food without scarcity, in which you will not lack anything; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you can dig copper. 10 And so (I)you will eat and be satisfied, and you shall bless Yahweh your God for the good land which He has given you.
11 “[b]Beware lest you (J)forget Yahweh your God by not keeping His commandments and His judgments and His statutes which I am commanding you today; 12 lest (K)you eat and are satisfied and build good houses and live in them, 13 and your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and gold multiply, and all that you have multiplies, 14 and your heart becomes [c]lifted up and you (L)forget Yahweh your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt, out of the house of [d]slavery. 15 He led you through (M)the great and fearsome wilderness, with its (N)fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water; He (O)brought water for you out of the rock of flint. 16 In the wilderness He fed you manna (P)which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and that He might (Q)test you, to do good for you [e]in the end, 17 lest (R)you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand made me this wealth.’ 18 But you shall remember Yahweh your God, for (S)it is He who is giving you power to make wealth, that He may confirm His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day. 19 Now it will be, if you ever forget Yahweh your God and walk after other gods and serve them and worship them, (T)I testify against you today that you will surely perish. 20 Like the nations that Yahweh makes to perish before you, so (U)you shall perish, because you would not listen to the voice of Yahweh your God.

New King James Version
Remember the Lord Your God
8 “Every commandment which I command you today (A)you must [a]be careful to observe, that you may live and (B)multiply,[b] and go in and possess the land of which the Lord [c]swore to your fathers. 2 And you shall remember that the Lord your God (C)led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and (D)test you, (E)to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. 3 So He humbled you, (F)allowed you to hunger, and (G)fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall (H)not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord. 4 (I)Your garments did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years. 5 (J)You should [d]know in your heart that as a man chastens his son, so the Lord your God chastens you.
6 “Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, (K)to walk in His ways and to fear Him. 7 For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, (L)a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills; 8 a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; 9 a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper. 10 (M)When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land which He has given you.
11 “Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments, His judgments, and His statutes which I command you today, 12 (N)lest—when you have eaten and are [e]full, and have built beautiful houses and dwell in them; 13 and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold are [f]multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied; 14 (O)when your heart [g]is lifted up, and you (P)forget the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage; 15 who (Q)led you through that great and terrible wilderness, (R)in which were fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty land where there was no water; (S)who brought water for you out of the flinty rock; 16 who fed you in the wilderness with (T)manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and that He might test you, (U)to do you good in the end— 17 then you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gained me this wealth.’
18 “And you shall remember the Lord your God, (V)for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, (W)that He may [h]establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day. 19 Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, (X)I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish. 20 As the nations which the Lord destroys before you, (Y)so you shall perish, because you would not be obedient to the voice of the Lord your God.
