18 And you ashall do what is right and good in the sight of the Lord, that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land of which the Lord swore to your fathers,
19 ato cast out all your enemies from before you, as the Lord has spoken.
20 a“When your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is the meaning of the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments which the Lord our God has commanded you?’
21 then you shall say to your son: ‘We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, and the Lord brought us out of Egypt awith a mighty hand;
22 and the Lord showed signs and wonders before our eyes, great and severe, against Egypt, Pharaoh, and all his household.
23 Then He brought us out from there, that He might bring us in, to give us the land of which He1 swore to our fathers.
24 And the Lord commanded us to observe all these2 statutes, ato fear the Lord our God, bfor our good always, that cHe might preserve us alive, as it is3 this day.
