Deuteronomy 11:9-12

9and 1so that you may prolong your days on the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give to them and to their 2descendants, 3a land flowing with milk and honey. 10For the land, into which you are entering to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you used to sow your seed and water it 4by your foot like a vegetable garden. 11But 5the land into which you are about to cross to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinks water from the rain of heaven, 12a land for which the Lord your God cares; 6the eyes of the Lord your God are continually on it, from the 7beginning even to the end of the year.
