Deuteronomy 11:8-15

8“You shall therefore keepH8104 everyH3605 commandmentH4687 whichH834 I am commandingH6680 you todayH3117, 1soH4616 that you may be strongH2388 and goH935 in and possessH3423 the landH776 into whichH834 you are about to crossH5674 to possessH3423 it; 92so that you may prolongH748 your daysH3117 on the landH127 whichH834 the LordH3068 sworeH7650 to your fathersH1 to giveH5414 to them and to their 3descendantsH2233, 4a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 10For the landH776, into whichH834 you are enteringH935 to possessH3423 it, is not like the landH776 of EgyptH4714 from whichH834 you cameH3318, whereH834 you used to sowH2232 your seedH2233 and waterH8248 it with your 5footH7272 like a vegetableH3419 gardenH1588. 11But 6the landH776 into whichH834 you are about to crossH5674 to possessH3423 it, a landH776 of hillsH2022 and valleysH1237, drinksH8354 waterH4325 from the rainH4306 of heavenH8064, 12a landH776 for whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 caresH1875; 7the eyesH5869 of the LordH3068 your GodH430 are alwaysH8548 on it, from the 8beginningH7225 even to the endH319 of the yearH8141.

13“It shall comeH1961 about, 9ifH518 you listenH8085 obedientlyH8085 to my commandmentsH4687 whichH834 I am commandingH6680 you todayH3117, 10to loveH157 the LordH3068 your GodH430 and to serveH5647 Him 11with allH3605 your heartH3824 and allH3605 your soulH5315, 14that 1213He will giveH5414 the rainH4306 for your landH776 in its seasonH6256, the 1415earlyH3138 and 16lateH4456 rainH3138H4456, that you may gatherH622 in your grainH1715 and your newH8492 wineH8492 and your oilH3323. 151718He will giveH5414 grassH6212 in your fieldsH7704 for your cattleH929, and 19you will eatH398 and be satisfiedH7646.
