Deuteronomy 8:1–10

All the commandments which I command thee this day ^ashall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers. ²And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee ^bthese forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and ^cto prove thee, ^dto know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. ³And he humbled thee, and ^esuffered thee to hunger, and ^ffed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that ^gman doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live. ^4hThy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years. ⁵Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man ⁱchasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee. ⁶Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, ^kto walk in his ways, and to fear him. ⁷For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, ^la land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; ⁸A land of wheat, and barley, ^mand vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land ^†of oil olive, and honey; ⁹A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land ⁿwhose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass. ¹⁰When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
