8:1

8:2

8:1	You must safeguard and keep the entire mandate that I am prescribing to you today. You will then survive, flourish, and come to occupy the land that God swore to your fathers. Kol-hamitsvah asher anochi metsavecha hayom tishmerun la'asot lema'an ticheyun urevitem uvatem virishtem et-ha'arets asher-nishba Adonay la'avoteychem.
8:2	Remember the entire path along which God your Lord led you these forty years in the desert. He sent hardships to test you, to determine what is in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. Vezacharta et-kol-haderech asher holichecha Adonay Eloheycha zeh arba'im shanah bamidbar lema'an anotecha lenasotcha lada'at et-asher bilvavecha hatishmor mitsvotav im-lo.
