Deuteronomy 4:2 in Context — Deuteronomy 4
1 Maintenant, Israël, écoute les lois et les ordonnances que je vous enseigne. Mettez-les en pratique, afin que vous viviez, et que vous entriez en possession du pays que vous donne l’Éternel, le Dieu de vos pères.
2 Vous n’ajouterez rien à ce que je vous prescris, et vous n’en retrancherez rien; mais vous observerez les commandements de l’Éternel, votre Dieu, tels que je vous les prescris.
3 Vos yeux ont vu ce que l’Éternel a fait à l’occasion de Baal-Peor: l’Éternel, ton Dieu, a détruit du milieu de toi tous ceux qui étaient allés après Baal-Peor.
4 Et vous, qui vous êtes attachés à l’Éternel, votre Dieu, vous êtes aujourd’hui tous vivants.
