Deuteronomy 11

1Therefore thou shalt loveH157 Jehovah thy GodH430, and keepH8104 his chargeH4931, and his statutesH2708, and his ordinancesH4941, and his commandmentsH4687, alway. 2And knowH3045 ye this dayH3117: for I speak not with your children that have not knownH3045, and that have not seenH7200 the chastisement of Jehovah your GodH430, his greatnessH1433, his mightyH2389 handH3027, and his outstretchedH5186 armH2220, 3and his signsH226, and his worksH4639, which he did in the midstH8432 of EgyptH4714 unto PharaohH6547 the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and unto all his landH776; 4and what he did unto the armyH2428 of EgyptH4714, unto their horsesH5483, and to their chariotsH7393; how he madeH6213 the waterH4325 of the Red SeaH3220 to overflow them as they pursuedH7291 after you, and how Jehovah hath destroyedH6 them unto this dayH3117; 5and what he did unto you in the wildernessH4057, until ye cameH935 unto this placeH4725; 6and what he did unto DathanH1885 and AbiramH48, the sonsH1121 of EliabH446, the sonH1121 of ReubenH7205; how the earthH776 openedH6475 its mouthH6310, and swallowedH1104 them up, and their householdsH1004, and their tentsH168, and every living thing that followed them, in the midstH7130 of all IsraelH3478: 7but your eyesH5869 have seenH7200 all the greatH1419 workH4639 of Jehovah which he did.

8Therefore shall ye keepH8104 all the commandmentH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, that ye may be strongH2388, and goH935 in and possessH3423 the landH776, whither ye goH935 over to possessH3423 it; 9and that ye may prolongH748 your daysH3117 in the landH776, which Jehovah sware unto your fathersH1 to giveH5414 unto them and to their seedH2233, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 10For the landH776, whither thou goest in to possessH3423 it, is not as the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from whence ye cameH935 out, whereH834 thou sowedst thy seedH2233, and wateredst it with thy footH7272, as a gardenH1588 of herbs; 11but the landH776, whither ye goH935 over to possessH3423 it, is a landH776 of hillsH2022 and valleysH1237, and drinketh waterH4325 of the rainH4306 of heavenH8064, 12a landH776 which Jehovah thy GodH430 careth for: the eyesH5869 of Jehovah thy GodH430 are always upon it, from the beginning of the yearH8141 even unto the endH319 of the yearH8141.

13And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117, to loveH157 Jehovah your GodH430, and to serveH5647 him with all your heartH3824 and with all your soulH5315, 14that I will giveH5414 the rainH4306 of your landH776 in its season, the former rainH4306 and the latter rainH4306, that thou mayest gatherH622 in thy grainH1715, and thy newH8492 wineH8492, and thine oilH3323. 15And I will giveH5414 grassH6212 in thy fieldsH7704 for thy cattleH929, and thou shalt eatH398 and be full. 16Take heedH8104 to yourselves, lestH6435 your heartH3824 be deceived, and ye turnH5493 asideH5493, and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worship them; 17and the angerH639 of Jehovah beH1961 kindled against you, and he shutH6113 up the heavensH8064, so that there shall beH1961 no rainH4306, and the landH776 shall not yield its fruit; and ye perishH6 quicklyH4120 from off the goodH2896 landH776 which Jehovah giveth you.

18Therefore shall ye lay up these my wordsH1697 in your heartH3824 and in your soulH5315; and ye shall bindH7194 them for a signH226 upon your handH3027, and they shall beH1961 for frontlets between your eyesH5869. 19And ye shall teachH3925 them your children, talking of them, when thou sittest in thy houseH1004, and when thou walkest by the wayH1870, and when thou liest downH7901, and when thou risest up. 20And thou shalt writeH3789 them upon the door-posts of thy houseH1004, and upon thy gatesH8179; 21that your daysH3117 may be multipliedH7235, and the daysH3117 of your children, in the landH776 which Jehovah sware unto your fathersH1 to giveH5414 them, as the daysH3117 of the heavensH8064 above the earthH776. 22For if ye shall diligently keepH8104 all this commandmentH4687 which I commandH6680 you, to do it, to loveH157 Jehovah your GodH430, to walk in all his waysH1870, and to cleave unto him; 23then will Jehovah drive out all these nationsH1471 from before you, and ye shall dispossessH3423 nationsH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 than yourselves. 24Every placeH4725 whereon the soleH3709 of your footH7272 shall treadH1869 shall beH1961 yours: from the wildernessH4057, and LebanonH3844, from the riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, even unto the hinder seaH3220 shall beH1961 your borderH1366. 25There shall no manH376 be able to standH3320 before you: Jehovah your GodH430 shall lay the fearH6343 of you and the dreadH6343 of you upon all the landH776 that ye shall treadH1869 upon, as he hath spokenH1696 unto you.

26Behold, I setH5414 before you this dayH3117 a blessingH1293 and a curseH7045: 27the blessingH1293, if ye shall hearken unto the commandmentsH4687 of Jehovah your GodH430, which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117; 28and the curseH7045, if ye shall not hearken unto the commandmentsH4687 of Jehovah your GodH430, but turnH5493 asideH5493 out of the wayH1870 which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117, to go after otherH312 godsH430, which ye have not knownH3045. 29And it shall comeH935 to pass, when Jehovah thy GodH430 shall bringH935 thee into the landH776 whither thou goest to possessH3423 it, that thou shalt setH5414 the blessingH1293 upon mount GerizimH1630, and the curseH7045 upon mount EbalH5858. 30Are they not beyond the JordanH3383, behind the wayH1870 of the going downH3427 of the sunH8121, in the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669 that dwellH3427 in the ArabahH6160, over against GilgalH1537, beside the oaks of MorehH4176? 31For ye are to passH5674 over the JordanH3383 to goH935 in to possessH3423 the landH776 which Jehovah your GodH430 giveth you, and ye shall possessH3423 it, and dwellH3427 therein. 32And ye shall observeH8104 to do all the statutesH2706 and the ordinancesH4941 which I setH5414 before you this dayH3117.
