Verse 15 is found in chapter 5 of Deuteronomy. Moses gathers the people to repeat the commandments received at Horeb. The Sinai account is presented as an experience that directly commits the present generation, not merely its ancestors.

Denn du sollst gedenken, daß du auch Knecht in Ägyptenland warst und der HERR, dein Gott, dich von dort ausgeführt hat mit einer mächtigen Hand und mit ausgerecktem Arm. Darum hat dir der HERR, dein Gott, geboten, daß du den Sabbattag halten sollst.
Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en tierra de Egipto, y que Jehová tu Dios te sacó de allá con mano fuerte y brazo extendido: por lo cual Jehová tu Dios te ha mandado que guardes el día del reposo.
Recuerda que fuiste esclavo en la tierra de Egipto y que Jehová tu Dios te sacó de allí con mano fuerte y brazo extendido. Por eso Jehová tu Dios te ha mandado guardar el día de reposo.
Tu te souviendras que tu as été esclave au pays d'Egypte, et que l'Eternel, ton Dieu, t'en a fait sortir à main forte et à bras étendu: c'est pourquoi l'Eternel, ton Dieu, t'a ordonné d'observer le jour du repos.
E ricordati che tu sei stato servo nel paese di Egitto, e che il Signore Iddio tuo ti ha tratto fuor di là con potente mano, e con braccio disteso; perciò il Signore Iddio tuo ti comanda che tu osservi il giorno del riposo.
Porque te lembrarás que foste servo na terra do Egito, e que o SENHOR teu Deus te tirou dali com mão forte e braço estendido; por isso o SENHOR teu Deus te ordenou que guardasses o dia de sábado.
