Deuteronomy 11:13-28

13“And it shall come about, 1if you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, 2to love the Lord your God and to serve Him 3with all your heart and all your soul, 14that 45He will provide rain for your land in its season, the 67early and 8late rain, so that you may gather your grain, your new wine, and your oil. 15910He will also provide grass in your field for your cattle, and 11you will eat and be satisfied. 161213Beware that your hearts are not easily deceived, and that you do not turn away and serve other gods, and worship them. 17Otherwise, 14the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and He will 15shut up the sky 16so that there will be no rain, and the ground will not yield its produce; then 17you will quickly perish from the good land which the Lord is giving you.

18“18You shall therefore take these words of mine to 19heart and to soul; and you shall tie them as a sign on your 20hand, and they shall be as 21frontlets 22on your forehead. 1923You shall also teach them to your sons, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk along the road, when you lie down, and when you get up. 2024And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21so that 25your days and the days of your sons may be increased on the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, as 2627long as the heavens are above the earth. 22For if you are 28careful to keep all of this commandment which I am commanding you to do, 29to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and 30cling to Him, 23then the Lord will 3132dispossess all these nations from you, and you will 3334dispossess nations greater and mightier than you. 2435Every place on which the sole of your foot steps shall be yours; 36your border will be from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the river, the river Euphrates, as far as 37the western sea. 2538No one will be able to stand against you; the Lord your God will 39instill the dread of you and the fear of you in all the land on which you set foot, just as He has spoken to you.

26“40See, I am placing before you today a blessing and a curse: 27the 41blessing, if you listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I am commanding you today; 28and the 42curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside from the way which I am commanding you today, 43by following other gods which you have not known.
