Vulgate
καὶ ἄκουσον, Ἰσραήλ, καὶ φύλαξαι ποιεῖν, ὅπως εὖ σοι ᾖ, καὶ ἵνα πληθυνθῆτε σφόδρα, καθάπερ ἐλάλησεν Κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων σου δοῦναί σοι γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι.
LXX
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, hath promised unto thee, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
