Beware lest you forget the Lord your God, in not keeping His commandments, and His ordinances, and His statutes, which I command thee this day; lest when you have eaten and are satisfied, and have built goodly houses, and dwelt therein; and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied; then your heart be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; who led you through the great and dreadful wilderness, wherein were serpents, fiery serpents, and scorpions, and thirsty ground where was no water; who brought you forth water out of the rock of flint; who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers knew not, that He might afflict you, and that He might prove you, to do you good at your latter end; and you say in your heart: 'My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.' But you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He that giveth you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore unto your fathers, as it is this day.
