Ulangan 4:3-6

I have taught you statutes and ordinances just as the Lord my God told me to do, so that you might carry them out in ⁴  the land you are about to enter and possess. 4:6 So be sure to do them, because this will testify of your wise understanding ⁵  to the people who will learn of all these statutes and say, “Indeed, this great nation is a very wise ⁶  people.”
