Deuteronomy 4:5-7

Complete Jewish Bible

(ii) ⁵ Look, I have taught you laws and rulings, just as Adonai my God ordered me, so that you can behave accordingly in the land where you are going in order to take possession of it. ⁶ Therefore, observe them; and follow them; for then all peoples will see you as having wisdom and understanding. When they hear of all these laws, they will say, ‘This great nation is surely a wise and understanding people.’ ⁷ For what great nation is there that has God as close to them as Adonai our God is, whenever we call on him?
