That is the Shema prayer, which quotes Deuteronomy 6:4-9.
The Shema-prayer (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) expresses our belief in One God, our love for him, and our obligation to learn the Torah and keep its commands. It is an affirmation of our part in the covenant with God. It is in the merit of this covenant that Judaism continues to exist.
