Shema Yisrael
Shema Yisrael:
YHWH is our Elohim, YHWH is OneAnd you shall love YHWH your Elohim with all your hearts,
and with all your being, and with all your might.
And these words, which I command you this day, shall
be in your heart:
And 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 up.
And you shall bind them for an sign upon your hand, and
they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
And you shall write them upon the posts of your house,
and on your gates.
And it shall be, when
YHWH your Elohim shall havebrought you into the land which He swore to your fathers,
to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you
great and good cities, which you did not build,
And houses full of all good things, which you filled not,
and wells dug, which you did not dig, vineyards and olive
trees, which you planted not; when you shall have eaten
and are full;
Then beware lest you forget
YHWH, who brought youforth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of
slavery.
You shall fear
YHWH your Elohim, and serve Him, andshall swear by His Name.
You shall not go after other elohim, the elohim of the
peoples who are all around you;
(For
YHWH your Elohim is a jealous El among you) lestthe anger of
YHWH your Elohim be lit against you, anddestroy you from off the face of the earth.
You shall not try YHWH your Elohim, as you tried Him
in Massah.
You shall diligently guard the Commandments of YHWH your
Elohim, and His testimonies, and His Statutes, which He
has commanded you.
And you shall do that which is right and good in the
sight of YHWH: that it may be well with you, and that you
may go in and possess the good land that YHWH swore to
your fathers.
To cast out all your enemies from before you, as YHWH
has spoken.
