See, I have set before you this day life and good, death and evil... I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse; therefore choose life.
Moses
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
The Lord your God will raise up a Prophet like me from among your own people. Listen carefully to everything He tells you. Anyone who will not listen to that Prophet will be cut off from God's people and utterly destroyed.
You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to one another.
Do not give back to his master a servant who has gone in flight from his master and come to you: let him go on living among you in whatever place is most pleasing to him.
No lusting after your neighbor's house - or wife or servant or maid or ox or donkey. Don't set your heart on anything that is your neighbor's.
Would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!
I am not eloquent.
I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.
