  • DEU 11:1–7, engwebp

    1Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his instructions, his statutes, his ordinances, and his commandments, always.

    2Know this day—for I don’t speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm,

    3his signs, and his works, which he did in the middle of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;

    4and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued you, and how the LORD has destroyed them to this day;

    5and what he did to you in the wilderness until you came to this place;

    6and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben—how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the middle of all Israel;

    7but your eyes have seen all of the LORD’s great work which he did.

    6of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites; of Carmi, the family of the Carmites.

    7These are the families of the Reubenites; and those who were counted of them were forty-three thousand seven hundred thirty.

    11Notwithstanding, the sons of Korah didn’t die.
