Deuteronomy 6:6-16
New International Version
6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.(A) 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.(B) 8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.(C) 9 Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.(D)
10 When the Lord your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build,(E) 11 houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig,(F) and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied,(G) 12 be careful that you do not forget(H) the Lord, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
13 Fear the Lord(I) your God, serve him only(J) and take your oaths(K) in his name.(L) 14 Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; 15 for the Lord your God(M), who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land. 16 Do not put the Lord your God to the test(N) as you did at Massah.

Deuteronomy 6:6-16
King James Version
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
10 And it shall be, when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,
11 And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
12 Then beware lest thou forget the Lord, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
13 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.
14 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you;
15 (For the Lord thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16 Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
