FEAR Deuteronomy 6:13

Fear the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his name.

Fear the LORD your God
Psalm 33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere him.
Psalm 34:9 Fear the LORD, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing.

serve him only
Deuteronomy 13:4 It is the LORD your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him.
1 Samuel 7:3 So Samuel said to all the Israelites, "If you are returning to the LORD with all your hearts, then rid yourselves of the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths and commit yourselves to the LORD and serve him only, and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines."
Jeremiah 44:10 "To this day they have not humbled themselves or shown reverence, nor have they followed my law and the decrees I set before you and your ancestors."
Matthew 4:10 Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.' "
Luke 4:8 Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.' "

and take your oaths in his name
Exodus 20:7 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name."
Matthew 5:33-37 "Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.' But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God's throne; or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. All you need to say is simply 'Yes' or 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one."
