5 And YOU must keep my statutes and my judicial decisions, which if a man* will do, he must also live by means of them.*+ I am Jehovah.+

16 [If you will listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God,]* which I am commanding you today, so as to love Jehovah your God,+ to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments+ and his statutes and his judicial decisions,+ then you will be bound to keep alive+ and to multiply, and Jehovah your God must bless you in the land to which you are going to take possession of it.+

29 Although you would bear witness+ against them to bring them back to your law,+ they themselves even acted presumptuously+ and did not listen to your commandments; and against your own judicial decisions+ they sinned,+ which, if a man* will do, he must also live by means of them.*+ And they kept giving a stubborn shoulder,+ and their neck they hardened,+ and they did not listen.+

5 For Moses writes that the man that has done the righteousness of the Law will live by it.+
