"lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses, and lived therein;"
— Deuteronomy 8:12, World English Bible
“Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;”
“lest, when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein; ”
“When you eat your fill, when you build and occupy good houses,”
“Lest after thou hast eaten and art filled, hast built goodly houses, and dwelt in them,”
“And when you have taken food and are full, and have made fair houses for yourselves and are living in them;”
“Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;”
a land in which you shall eat bread without scarceness, you shall not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.
You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless Yahweh your God for the good land which he has given you.
Beware lest you forget Yahweh your God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you this day:
lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built goodly houses, and lived therein;
and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;
then your heart be lifted up, and you forget Yahweh your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, [in which were] fiery serpents and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who brought you forth water out of the rock of flint;
