Deuteronomy 6:19 In-Context

17 Carefully keep the commands of God, your God, all the requirements and regulations he gave you.
18 Do what is right; do what is good in God's sight so you'll live a good life and be able to march in and take this pleasant land that God so solemnly promised through your ancestors,
