אֲנִ֞י יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶ֗ם אֲשֶׁ֨ר הוֹצֵ֤אתִי אֶתְכֶם֙ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם לִהְי֥וֹת לָכֶ֖ם לֵאלֹהִ֑ים אֲנִ֖י יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃ (פ)
Akulah Yang Mahakekal, Allahmu, yang telah membawa kamu keluar dari tanah Mesir supaya Aku menjadi Allahmu. Akulah Yang Mahakekal, Allahmu.”
Mishneh Torah, Reading the Shema
Although the precept to wear fringes is not incumbent at night, still the section concerning this precept is recited at night, because it mentions the departure from Egypt, which it is a duty to recall by day and at night, as it is said, "that thou mayest remember the day of thy going forth from the land of Egypt all the days of thy life" (Deuteronomy 16:3). The reading of these three sections in this order is termed "The reading of the Shema."
