Exhortation to Keep the Covenant Principles

6:1 Now these are the commandments,1 statutes, and ordinances that the Lord your God instructed me to teach you so that you may carry them out in the land where you are headed2 6:2 and that you may so revere the Lord your God that you will keep all his statutes and commandments3 that I am giving4 you—you, your children, and your grandchildren—all your lives, to prolong your days. 6:3 Pay attention, Israel, and be careful to do this so that it may go well with you and that you may increase greatly in number5—as the Lord, God of your ancestors,6 said to you, you will have a land flowing with milk and honey.
