15 Porque el Dios celoso, Jehová tu Dios, en medio de ti [está]; porque no se inflame el furor de Jehová tu Dios contra ti, y te destruya de sobre la haz de la tierra.

16 No tentaréis á Jehová vuestro Dios, como lo tentasteis en Massa.

17 Guardad cuidadosamente los mandamientos de Jehová vuestro Dios, y sus testimonios, y sus estatutos, que te ha mandado.

18 Y harás lo recto y bueno en ojos de Jehová, para que te vaya bien, y entres y poseas la buena tierra que Jehová juró á tus padres;

19 Para que él eche á todos tus enemigos de delante de ti, como Jehová ha dicho.
