Deuteronomy 30:9-20

9And Jehovah thy GodH430 will make thee plenteous in all the workH4639 of thy handH3027, in the fruitH6529 of thy body, and in the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and in the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127, for goodH2896: for Jehovah will again rejoiceH7797 over thee for goodH2896, as he rejoicedH7797 over thy fathersH1; 10if thou shalt obey the voiceH6963 of Jehovah thy GodH430, to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which are writtenH3789 in this bookH5612 of the lawH8451; if thou turnH7725 unto Jehovah thy GodH430 with all thy heartH3824, and with all thy soulH5315.

11For this commandmentH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, it is not too hardH6381 for thee, neither is it farH7350 off. 12It is not in heavenH8064, that thou shouldest sayH559, Who shall goH5927 up for us to heavenH8064, and bringH5927 it unto us, and makeH6213 us to hearH8085 it, that we may do it? 13Neither is it beyond the seaH3220, that thou shouldest sayH559, Who shall go over the seaH3220 for us, and bring it unto us, and makeH6213 us to hearH8085 it, that we may do it? 14But the wordH1697 is veryH3966 nigh unto thee, in thy mouthH6310, and in thy heartH3824, that thou mayest do it.

15SeeH7200, I have setH5414 before thee this dayH3117 life and goodH2896, and deathH4194 and evilH7451; 16in that I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117 to loveH157 Jehovah thy GodH430, to walk in his waysH1870, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 and his ordinancesH4941, that thou mayest liveH2421 and multiplyH7235, and that Jehovah thy GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in the landH776 whither thou goest in to possessH3423 it. 17But if thy heartH3824 turnH6437 awayH5080, and thou wilt not hearH8085, but shalt be drawn awayH5080, and worship otherH312 godsH430, and serveH5647 them; 18I denounce unto you this dayH3117, that ye shall surely perishH6; ye shall not prolongH748 your daysH3117 in the landH127, whither thou passest over the JordanH3383 to goH935 in to possessH3423 it. 19I call heavenH8064 and earthH776 to witness against you this dayH3117, that I have setH5414 before thee life and deathH4194, the blessingH1293 and the curseH7045: therefore chooseH977 life, that thou mayest liveH2421, thou and thy seedH2233; 20to loveH157 Jehovah thy GodH430, to obey his voiceH6963, and to cleave unto him; for he is thy life, and the lengthH753 of thy daysH3117; that thou mayest dwellH3427 in the landH127 which Jehovah sware unto thy fathersH1, to AbrahamH85, to IsaacH3327, and to JacobH3290, to giveH5414 them.
