JUB

NIV

9 a land in which thou shalt eat bread without scarceness; thou shalt not lack any <em>thing</em> in it, a land whose stones <em>are</em> iron, and out of whose mountains thou may dig brass.
9 a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig copper out of the hills.
10 Thou shalt eat and be full and bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he has given thee.
10 When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the LORD your God for the good land he has given you.
11 Keep thyself, that thou forget not the LORD thy God, to not fulfill his commandments and his rights and his statutes, which I command thee this day,
11 Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day.
12 lest peradventure <em>when</em> thou hast eaten and art full and hast built goodly houses and dwelt <em>therein</em>,
12 Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down,
13 and <em>when</em> thy herds and thy flocks multiply and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied and all that thou hast is multiplied,
13 and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied,
14 then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery,
14 then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
15 who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness of burning serpents and scorpions and drought, where <em>there was</em> no water, who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint,
15 He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock.
16 who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, <em>a food</em> which thy fathers knew not, afflicting thee and proving thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
16 He gave you manna to eat in the wilderness, something your ancestors had never known, to humble and test you so that in the end it might go well with you.
17 and thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of <em>my</em> hand has gotten me this wealth.
17 You may say to yourself, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me.”
18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God, for <em>it is</em> he that gives thee the power to get wealth that he may confirm his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as <em>it is</em> this day.
18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today.
19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God and walk after other gods and serve them and worship them, I protest against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
19 If you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.
