Deuteronomy 6:12

Caution Against Disobedience

10 “So it shall be, when the Lord your God brings you into the land of which He¹ swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give you large and beautiful cities ^awhich you did not build,

11 houses full of all good things, which you did not fill, hewn-out wells which you did not dig, vineyards and olive trees which you did not plant—^awhen you have eaten and are full—

12 then beware, lest you forget the ^aLord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

13 You shall ^afear the Lord your God and serve Him, and ^bshall take oaths in His name.

14 You shall not go after other gods, ^athe gods of the peoples who are all around you

15 (for ^athe Lord your God is a jealous God ^bamong you), lest the anger of the Lord your God be aroused against you and destroy you from the face of the earth.

16 ^a“You shall not¹ tempt the Lord your God ^bas you tempted Him in Massah.
