My child, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments,

Acquire wisdom, acquire understanding; do not forget and do not turn aside from the words I speak.

Listen, my child, to the instruction from your father, and do not forsake the teaching from your mother.

Again, however, pay very careful attention, lest you forget the things you have seen and disregard them for the rest of your life; instead teach them to your children and grandchildren.

These words I am commanding you today must be kept in mind,

You must keep carefully all these commandments I am giving you today so that you may live, increase in number, and go in and occupy the land that the Lord promised to your ancestors.

What I am commanding you today is to love the Lord your God, to walk in his ways, and to obey his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances. Then you will live and become numerous and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you are about to possess.

I find delight in your statutes; I do not forget your instructions.

Give me understanding so that I might observe your law, and keep it with all my heart.

I will find delight in your commands, which I love.

"But I will make a new covenant with the whole nation of Israel after I plant them back in the land," says the Lord. "I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts and minds. I will be their God and they will be my people.

The person who has my commandments and obeys them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will reveal myself to him."

Be on guard so that you do not forget the covenant of the Lord your God that he has made with you, and that you do not make an image of any kind, just as he has forbidden you.

In my heart I store up your words, so I might not sin against you.

I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have revived me.

(Resh) See my pain and rescue me! For I do not forget your law.

I have wandered off like a lost sheep. Come looking for your servant, for I do not forget your commands.

lest they drink and forget what is decreed, and remove from all the poor their legal rights.

Wake up! Wake up! Get up, O Jerusalem! You drank from the cup the Lord passed to you, which was full of his anger! You drained dry the goblet full of intoxicating wine.

You have destroyed my people by failing to acknowledge me! Because you refuse to acknowledge me, I will reject you as my priests. Because you reject the law of your God, I will reject your descendants.
