Moses told the Israelites: “I take the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you today that I have put life and death before you, the blessing and the curse; and you must choose life so that you may live, you and your descendants, by loving Jehovah your God, by listening to his voice, and by sticking to him, for he is your life and by him you will endure a long time in the land that Jehovah swore to give to your forefathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. ”
و تا یَهُوَه خدای خود را دوست بداری و آواز او را بشنوی و به او ملصق شوی ،‏ زیرا که او حیات تو و درازی عمر توست تا در زمینی که خداوند برای پدرانت ،‏ ابراهیم و اسحاق و یعقوب ،‏ قَسَم خورد که آن را به ایشان بدهد ،‏ ساکن شوی .‏ »
