Deuteronomy 11:10-21

10For the landH776, where thou goest inH935 to possessH3423 it, is not as the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from which ye came outH3318, where thou didst sowH2232 thy seedH2233, and waterH8248 it with thy footH7272, as a gardenH1588 of herbsH3419: 11But the landH776, where ye goH5674 to possessH3423 it, is a landH776 of hillsH2022 and valleysH1237, and drinkethH8354 waterH4325 of the rainH4306 of heavenH8064: 12A landH776 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 careth forH1875: the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 are alwaysH8548 upon it, from the beginningH7225 of the yearH8141 even to the endH319 of the yearH8141.1 13And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearkenH8085 diligentlyH8085 to my commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117, to loveH157 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and to serveH5647 him with all your heartH3824 and with all your soulH5315, 14That I will giveH5414 you the rainH4306 of your landH776 in its due seasonH6256, the former rainH3138 and the latter rainH4456, that thou mayest gatherH622 in thy grainH1715, and thy wineH8492, and thy oilH3323. 15And I will giveH5414 grassH6212 in thy fieldsH7704 for thy cattleH929, that thou mayest eatH398 and be fullH7646.2 16Take heedH8104 to yourselves, that your heartH3824 be not deceivedH6601, and ye turn asideH5493, and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshipH7812 them; 17And then the LORD’SH3068 wrathH639 shall be kindledH2734 against you, and he shall shut upH6113 the heavenH8064, that there shall be no rainH4306, and the landH127 shall not yieldH5414 its fruitH2981; and lest ye perishH6 quicklyH4120 from off the goodH2896 landH776 which the LORDH3068 givethH5414 you.

18Therefore shall ye lay upH7760 these my wordsH1697 in your heartH3824 and in your soulH5315, and bindH7194 them for a signH226 upon your handH3027, that they may be as frontletsH2903 between your eyesH5869. 19And ye shall teachH3925 them to your childrenH1121, speakingH1696 of them when thou sittestH3427 in thy houseH1004, and when thou walkestH3212 by the wayH1870, when thou liestH7901 down, and when thou risest upH6965. 20And thou shalt writeH3789 them upon the door postsH4201 of thy houseH1004, and upon thy gatesH8179: 21That your daysH3117 may be multipliedH7235, and the daysH3117 of your childrenH1121, in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 sworeH7650 to your fathersH1 to giveH5414 to them, as the daysH3117 of heavenH8064 upon the earthH776.
