Deuteronomy 8:10-18

English Standard Version

¹⁰ And you shall eat and be full, and you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land he has given you.

¹¹ “Take care lest you forget the Lord your God by not keeping his commandments and his rules and his statutes, which I command you today, ^12 (A)lest, when you have eaten and are full and have built good houses and live in them, ¹³ and when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all that you have is multiplied, ^14 (B)then your heart be lifted up, and you ^(C)forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, ¹⁵ who ^(D)led you through the great and terrifying wilderness, ^(E)with its fiery serpents and scorpions ^(F)and thirsty ground where there was no water, ^(G)who brought you water out of the flinty rock, ¹⁶ who fed you in the wilderness with ^(H)manna that your fathers did not know, that he might humble you and test you, ^(I)to do you good in the end. ¹⁷ Beware ^(J)lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.’ ¹⁸ You shall remember the Lord your God, for ^(K)it is he who gives you power to get wealth, ^(L)that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your fathers, as it is this day.
