Essay zu Dewarim 26:16

הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֗ה יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ מְצַוְּךָ֧ לַעֲשׂ֛וֹת אֶת־הַחֻקִּ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה וְאֶת־הַמִּשְׁפָּטִ֑ים וְשָׁמַרְתָּ֤ וְעָשִׂ֙יתָ֙ אוֹתָ֔ם בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ֖ וּבְכָל־נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃

Heute gebietet dir der HERR, dein Gott, diese Satzungen und Verordnungen zu tun; Darum sollst du sie von ganzem Herzen und von ganzer Seele beobachten und tun.

The Five Books of Moses, by Everett Fox
