Deuteronomy 4:5-7

Living Bible

⁵ “These are the laws for you to obey when you arrive in the land where you will live. They are from the Lord our God. He has given them to me to pass on to you. ⁶ If you obey them, they will give you a reputation for wisdom and intelligence. When the surrounding nations hear these laws, they will exclaim, ‘What other nation is as wise and prudent as Israel!’ ⁷ For what other nation, great or small, has God among them, as the Lord our God is here among us whenever we call upon him?
