Deuteronomy 6

Gen Z: Deuteronomy 6

1Ayo, these are the rules, the vibes, and the calls from the Lord, so you can flex them in the land you’re about to claim:

2You gotta respect the Lord your God, keep all His rules and commands, for you and your fam, so your days can be lit and long.

3Listen up, Israel! Do what’s right so you can vibe well and pop off, just like the Lord promised in that land flowing with milk and honey.

4Yo, Israel: Our God is one, straight up.

5Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and energy, no cap.

6Keep these words I’m dropping today close to your heart, fr.

7Teach these to your kids, talk about them when you chill at home, when you’re on the go, when you crash at night, and when you wake up.

8Tie them on your hands as a sign and keep them front and center in your vision.

9Write them on your doorposts and gates, make it known.

10When the Lord brings you into the land He promised your ancestors, with dope cities you didn’t build, that’s a major flex.

11And houses filled with all the good stuff you didn’t even fill, wells you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees you didn’t plant; enjoy it all when you’re full.

12But don’t forget the Lord who brought you outta Egypt, from that place of struggle.

13Respect the Lord your God, serve Him, and swear by His name, that’s the move.

14Don’t chase after other gods, the ones around you; that’s sus.

15(The Lord your God is a jealous God) or else His anger might get lit against you, and you’ll be outta here.

16Don’t test the Lord your God like you did back in Massah, that’s not it.

17Keep the Lord’s commands, His testimonies, and statutes like your life depends on it, ‘cause it kinda does.

18Do what’s right in the Lord’s eyes so you can vibe well and take the good land He promised your fam.

19He’s got your back to kick out all your enemies, just like He said.

20When your kid asks what these testimonies and rules mean, spill the tea.

21Tell your kid, “We were slaves in Egypt, and the Lord flexed on us and brought us out with power.”

22The Lord showed mad signs and wonders in Egypt, on Pharaoh, and his whole crew, right in front of us.

23He brought us out so He could bring us in and give us the land He promised our ancestors.

24The Lord told us to keep these rules, respect Him, for our own good, so we stay alive, just like today.

25If we keep all these commands before the Lord our God as He told us, that’s our righteousness, periodt.

KJV: Deuteronomy 6

1Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:

2That thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.

3Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.

4Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:

5And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

7And 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.

8And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.

9And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

10And 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,

11And 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;

12Then beware lest thou forget the Lord, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

13Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.

14Ye 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.

16Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.

17Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.

18And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of the Lord: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers,

19To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as the Lord hath spoken.

20And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord our God hath commanded you?

21Then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt; and the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand:

22And the Lord shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes:

23And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.

24And the Lord commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

25And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.
