Deuteronomy 28:1-13

1“1Now it shall be, if you diligently 2obey the Lord your God, being careful to do all His commandments which I command you today, the Lord your God 3will set you high above all the nations of the earth. 2All these blessings will come upon you and 4overtake you if you 5obey the Lord your God:

3“Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be 6in the 7country.

4“Blessed shall be the 8offspring of your 9body and the 10produce of your ground and the 11offspring of your beasts, the increase of your herd and the young of your flock.

5“Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.

6“Blessed shall you be 12when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.

7“The Lord shall cause your enemies who rise up against you to be 13defeated before you; they will come out against you one way and will flee before you seven ways. 8The Lord will command the blessing upon you in your barns and in 14all that you put your hand to, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God gives you. 915The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, as He swore to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. 10So all the peoples of the earth will see that 1617you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will be afraid of you. 1118The Lord will make you abound in prosperity, in the 19offspring of your 20body and in the 21offspring of your beast and in the 22produce of your ground, in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. 12The Lord will open for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and 23you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. 1324The Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you only will be above, and you will not be underneath, if you listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I charge you today, to 25observe them carefully,
