Deuteronomy 32:45-47

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴⁵ When Moses had finished reciting all these words to all Israel, ⁴⁶ he said to them: ‘Take to heart all the words that I am giving in witness against you today; give them as a command to your children, so that they may diligently observe all the words of this law. ⁴⁷ This is no trifling matter for you, but rather your very life; through it you may live long in the land that you are crossing over the Jordan to possess.’
