Deuteronomy 11:18-25

18Take these words of mine to heart and keep them in mind. ⌞Write them down,⌟ tie them around your wrist, and wear them as headbands as a reminder.

19Teach them to your children, and talk about them when you’re at home or away, when you lie down or get up.

20Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.

21Then you and your children will live for a long time in this land that the Lord swore to give to your ancestors—as long as there’s a sky above the earth.

22Faithfully obey all these commands I’m giving you. Love the Lord your God, follow all his directions, and be loyal to him.

23Then the Lord will force all these people out of your way. Then you will take possession of ⌞the land belonging to⌟ people taller and stronger than you.

24I will give you every place on which you set foot. Your borders will be from the desert to Lebanon, from the Euphrates River to the Mediterranean Sea.

25No one will be able to stop you. As the Lord your God promised, he will make people terrified of you wherever you go in this land.
