Threats & Warnings

32 "Indeed, ^(A)ask now concerning the former days which were before you, since the ^(B)day that God created man on Earth, and inquire ^(C)from one end of the heavens to the other ^(D)Has anything been done like this great thing, or has anything been heard like it?

33 "^(E)Has any people heard the voice of God speaking from the midst of the fire, as you have heard it, and survived?

34 "^(F)Or has a god tried to go to take for himself a nation from within another nation ^(G)by trials, by signs and wonders and by war and ^(H)by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm and by great terrors, as the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

35 "To you it was shown that you might know that the LORD, He is God; ^(I)there is no other besides Him.

36 "^(J)Out of the heavens He let you hear His voice ^(K)to discipline you; and on Earth He let you see His great fire, and you heard His words from the midst of the fire.

37 "^(L)Because He loved your fathers, therefore He chose their descendants after them and He ^(M)personally brought you from Egypt by His great power, 38 driving out from before you nations greater and mightier than you, to bring you in and ^(N)to give you their land for an inheritance, as it is today.

39 "Know therefore today, and take it to your heart, that ^(O)the LORD, He is God in heaven above and on Earth below; there is no other.

40 "^(P)So you shall keep His statutes and His commandments which I am giving you today, that ^(Q)it may go well with you and with your children after you, and ^(R)that you may live long on the land which the LORD your God is giving you for all time."
