Deuteronomy 11:5

Read in context

Deuteronomy 11:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 the signs and works He did in Egypt to Pharaoh king of Egypt and all his land;

4 what He did to the Egyptian army and horses and chariots when He made the waters of the Red Sea engulf them as they pursued you, and how He destroyed them completely, even to this day;

5 what He did for you in the wilderness until you reached this place;

6 and what He did in the midst of all the Israelites to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab the Reubenite, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing that belonged to them.

7 For it is your own eyes that have seen every great work that the LORD has done.
