24 And the Lord gave us orders to keep all these laws, in the fear of the Lord our God, so that it might be well for us for ever, and that he might keep us from death, as he has done to this day.
The Lord will keep him safe, and give him life; the Lord will let him be a blessing on the earth, and will not give him into the hand of his haters.
And I will give them one heart and one way, so that they may go on in the worship of me for ever, for their good and the good of their children after them:
Take care to keep all the orders which I give you today, so that you may have life and be increased and go in and take as a heritage the land which the Lord, by his oath to your fathers, undertook to give you.
But you who kept faith with the Lord are living, every one of you, today.
And he made low your pride and let you be without food and gave you manna for your food, a thing new to you, which your fathers never saw; so that he might make it clear to you that bread is not man's only need, but his life is in every word which comes out of the mouth of the Lord.
And now, Israel, what would the Lord your God have you do, but to go in the fear of the Lord your God, walking in all his ways and loving him and doing his pleasure with all your heart and all your soul, Doing the orders of the Lord and keeping his laws which I give you this day for your good?
If you are upright, what do you give to him? or what does he take from your hand? Your evil-doing may have an effect on a man like yourself, or your righteousness on a son of man.
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if your heart is full of pride, you only will have the pain of it.
The reward of a gentle spirit and the fear of the Lord is wealth and honour and life.
But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.
What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death. But now, being free from sin, and having been made servants to God, you have your fruit in that which is holy, and the end is eternal life.

Moses, in this chapter, goes on with his charge to Israel, to be sure to keep up their religion in Canaan. It is much the same with ch. 4.
