THEY SHALL TEACH THEM DILIGENTLY!

Now these are the commandments, 
the statutes, and the judgments, 
which the LORD your God 
commanded to teach you, that 
ye might do them in the land 
whither ye go to possess it:
That thou mightest fear the 
LORD thy God, to keep all his 
statutes and his commandments, 
which I command thee, thou, 
and thy son, and thy son’s son, 
all the days of thy life; and 
that thy days may be prolonged.
Hear therefore, O Israel, and 
observe to do it; that it may be well 
with thee, and that ye may increase 
mightily, as the LORD God of thy 
fathers hath promised thee, in 
the land that floweth with milk 
and honey.   Hear, O Israel: 
The LORD our God is one 
LORD: And thou shalt love the 
LORD thy God with all thine 
heart, and with all thy soul, and 
with all thy might.  And these words, 
which I command thee this day, 
shall be in thine heart:  And thou shalt 
teach them diligently unto thy children, 
and shalt talk of them when thou 
sittest in thine house, and when 
thou walkest by the way, and 
when thou liest down, and when 
thou risest up. And thou shalt bind 
them for a sign upon thine hand, 
and they shall be as frontlets 
between thine eyes.  And thou 
shalt write them upon the 
posts of thy house, and on 
thy gates.  And it shall be, 
when the LORD thy God shall 
have brought thee into the land 
which he sware unto thy fathers, 
to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, 
to give thee great and goodly cities, 
which thou buildedst not,  And houses 
full of all good things, which thou filledst 
not, and wells digged, which thou 
diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, 
which thou plantedst not; when 
thou shalt have eaten and be full;

Then beware lest thou forget 
the LORD,  which brought thee 
forth out of the land of Egypt, 
from the house of bondage.
Thou shalt fear the LORD thy 
God, and serve him, and shalt 
swear by his name.  Ye shall not 
go after other gods, of the 
gods of the people which are 
round about you;

Deuteronomy 6:1-12
