3And 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 everything that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.

3And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with the manna, which thou hadst not known, and which thy fathers knew not; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread alone, but by everything that goeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.

4`Thy raiment hath not worn out from off thee, and thy foot hath not swelled these forty years,

5and thou hast known, with thy heart, that as a man chastiseth his son Jehovah thy God is chastising thee,

5And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy God chasteneth thee.

5And know in thy heart that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thyGod chasteneth thee;

6and thou hast kept the commands of Jehovah thy God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.

6And thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.

7`For Jehovah thy God is bringing thee in unto a good land, a land of brooks of waters, of fountains, and of depths coming out in valley and in mountain:

11Beware that thou forget not Jehovah thyGod, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day;

17and lest thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth.

17— and thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has procured me this wealth.

20As the nations which Jehovah is causing to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah yourGod.
