and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: 
and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and 
dwell in your land safely,

And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall 
lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and 
I will rid evil beasts out of the land, 
neither  shall the sword go through your land.
  
And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall 
fall before you by the sword.

And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an 
hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: 
and your enemies shall fall before you by the 
sword.

And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look 
upon it, and remember all the commandments of the Lord, 
and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart 
and your own eyes, afer which ye use to go a whoring:

unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the 
judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do 
them in the land which I give them to possess it.

His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His 
judgments, and to hearken unto His voice.

field.

will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our 
God is not among us?

that were round about Judah, so that they made no war against

from Me, ye that work iniquity (Torahlessness).

ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy
stength: this is the first commandment.

shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other 
commandment greater than these.

the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other
but He:

understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the 
strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more

John 8:51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep My
saying, he shall never see death.

John 12:48,49,50 he that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My
words, and believeth not, hath One that judgeth him: the word 
I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

For I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father which sent Me,
He gave me a commandment what I should say, and what I should
speak.

And I know that His commandment is life everlasting: what 
soever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto Me,
so I speak.

John 14:15 If ye love me, keep My commandments.

John 14:21 He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he 
it is that loveth me: and he that loveth Me shall be loved of  
My Father.

John 14:24 He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings: and
the word which ye hear is not Mine, but the Father's which
sent me.

Romans 14:8,9,10 owe no man any thing, but to love one another:
for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, 
Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou 
shalt not covet; and if here by any other commandment in this 
saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the 
fulfilling of the law.

I John 2:3,4 And hereby we do know that we know Him, if we 
keep His commandments.

He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments, 
is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

I John 3:21,22,23 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then 
have we confidence toward God.

And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him because we keep His 
commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in His 
sight.

And this is His commandment, That we should believe on the 
name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as He 
gave us commandment.

I John 3:24 And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth 
in him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth 
in us, by the Spirit which He hath given us.

I John 4:20,21 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his 
brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother 
whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not 
seen?

And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth 
God love his brother also. 

I John 5:2,3 By this we know that we love the children of 
God, when we love God, and keep His commandments.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments, 
and His commandments are not grievous.
