Deuteronomy 4:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴ while those of you who held fast to the Lord your God are all alive today.

⁵ See, just as the Lord my God has charged me, I now teach you statutes and ordinances for you to observe in the land that you are about to enter and occupy. ⁶ You must observe them diligently, for this will show your wisdom and discernment to the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, “Surely this great nation is a wise and discerning people!”
