New Living Translation
Deuteronomy 28:2-14
2You will experience all these blessings if you obey the Lord your God:
3Your towns and your fields will be blessed.
4Your children and your crops will be blessed. The offspring of your herds and flocks will be blessed.
5Your fruit baskets and breadboards will be blessed.
6Wherever you go and whatever you do, you will be blessed.
7“The Lord will conquer your enemies when they attack you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will scatter from you in seven!
8“The Lord will guarantee a blessing on everything you do and will fill your storehouses with grain. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.
9“If you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways, the Lord will establish you as his holy people as he swore he would do.
10Then all the nations of the world will see that you are a people claimed by the Lord, and they will stand in awe of you.
11“The Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops.
12The Lord will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them.
13If you listen to these commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom.
14You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them.
