Descripción de la Tierra Prometida

Todos los mandamientos que yo os ordeno hoy, tendréis cuidado de ponerlos por obra, a fin de que viváis y os multipliquéis, y entréis y toméis posesión de la tierra que el SEÑOR juró dar a vuestros padresa. Y te acordarás de todo el camino por donde el SEÑOR tu Dios te ha traído por el desierto durante estos cuarenta añosa, para humillarte, probándoteb, a fin de saber lo que había en tu corazón, si guardarías o no sus mandamientos. Y te humilló, y te dejó tener hambre, y te alimentó con el maná que no conocías, ni tus padres habían conocido, para hacerte entender1 que el hombre nosolo vive de pan, sino que vive2 de todo lo que procede de la boca del SEÑORa. Tu ropa no se gastó sobre ti, ni se hinchó tu pie durante estos cuarenta añosa. Por tanto, debes comprender1 en tu corazón que el SEÑOR tu Dios te estaba disciplinando así como un hombre disciplina a su hijoa. Guardarás, pues, los mandamientos del SEÑOR tu Dios, para andar en sus caminos y para temerle1. Porque el SEÑOR tu Dios te trae a una tierra buena, a una tierra de corrientes de aguas, de fuentes y manantiales que fluyen por valles y colinas; una tierra de trigo y cebada, de viñas, higueras y granados; una tierra de aceite de oliva y1 miel; una tierra donde comerás el pan sin escasez, donde nada te faltaráa; una tierra cuyas piedras son hierro, y de cuyos montes puedes sacar cobre. 10 Cuando hayas comido y te hayas saciadoa, bendecirás al SEÑOR tu Dios por la buena tierra que Él te ha dado.

El peligro de olvidar a Dios

11 Cuídate de no olvidar al SEÑOR tu Diosa dejando de guardar sus mandamientos, sus ordenanzas y sus estatutos que yo te ordeno hoy; 12 no sea que cuando hayas comido y te hayas saciadoa, y hayas construido buenas casas y habitado en ellas, 13 y cuando tus vacas y tus ovejas se multipliquen, y tu plata y oro se multipliquen, y todo lo que tengas se multiplique, 14 entonces tu corazón se enorgullezca1, y te olvides del SEÑOR tu Diosa que te sacó de la tierra de Egipto de la casa de servidumbre2. 15 Él te condujo a través del inmenso y terrible desiertoa, con sus serpientes abrasadorasb y escorpiones, tierra sedienta donde no había agua; Él sacó para ti agua de la roca de pedernalc. 16 En el desierto te alimentó con el maná que tus padres no habían conocidoa, para humillarte y probarteb, y para finalmente1 hacerte bien. 17 No sea que digas en tu corazóna: «Mi poder y la fuerza de mi mano me han producido esta riqueza». 18 Mas acuérdate del SEÑOR tu Dios, porque Él es el que te da poder para hacer riquezasa, a fin de confirmar su pacto, el cual juró a tus padres como en este día. 19 Y sucederá que si alguna vez te olvidas del SEÑOR tu Dios, y vas en pos de otros dioses, y los sirves y los adoras, yo testifico contra vosotros hoy, que ciertamente pereceréisa. 20 Como las naciones que el SEÑOR destruye delante de vosotros, así pereceréis, porque no oísteis la voz del SEÑOR vuestro Diosa.

God’s Gracious Dealings

All the commandments that I am commanding you today you shall be careful to do, so that you amay live and increase, and go in and take possession of the land which the LORD swore to give to your forefathers. aAnd you shall remember all the way which the LORD your God has bled you in the wilderness these forty years, in order to humble you, cputting you to the test, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. And He humbled you and let you go hungry, and fed you with the manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, in order to make you 1understand that aman shall not live on bread alone, but man shall live on everything that comes out of the mouth of the LORD. aYour clothing did not wear out on you, nor did your foot swell these forty years. aSo you are to know in your heart that the LORD your God was disciplining you just as a man disciplines his son. Therefore, you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, to walk in His ways and to 1fear Him. For athe LORD your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of streams of water, of fountains and springs, flowing out in valleys and hills; a land of wheat and barley, of vines, fig trees, and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; a land where you will eat food without shortage, in which you will not lack anything; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you can dig copper. 10 When ayou have eaten and are satisfied, you shall bless the LORD your God for the good land which He has given you.

11 Be careful that you do not aforget the LORD your God by failing to keep His commandments, His ordinances, and His statutes which I am commanding you today; 12 otherwise, awhen you eat and are satisfied, and you build good houses and live in them, 13 and when your herds and your flocks increase, and your silver and gold increase, and everything that you have increases, 14 then your heart will 1become proud and you will aforget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of 2slavery; 15 He who led you through athe great and terrible wilderness, with its bfiery serpents and scorpions, and its thirsty ground where there was no water; He who cbrought water for you out of the rock of flint. 16 In the wilderness it was He who fed you manna awhich your fathers did not know, in order to humble you and in order to bput you to the test, to do good for you 1in the end. 17 Otherwise, ayou may say in your heart, ‘My power and the strength of my hand made me this wealth.’ 18 But you are to remember the LORD your God, for ait is He who is giving you power to make wealth, in order to confirm His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day. 19 And it shall come about, if you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and serve and worship them, aI testify against you today that you will certainly perish. 20 Like the nations that the LORD eliminates from you, so ayou shall perish, because you would not listen to the voice of the LORD your God.
