Deuteronomy 28:2-14

2Then all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, if you listen to the voice of Adonai your God:

3“Blessed will you be in the city, and blessed will you be in the field.

4“Blessed will be the fruit of your womb, the produce of your soil, and the offspring of your livestock—the increase of your herds and the young of your flock.

5“Blessed will be your basket and your kneading bowl.

6“Blessed will you be when you come in, and blessed will you be when you go out.

7“Adonai will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be struck down before you. They will come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.

8Adonai will command the blessing on you in your barns and in every undertaking of your hand, and He will bless you in the land Adonai your God is giving you.

9Adonai will establish you as a holy people for Himself, just as He swore to you—if you keep the mitzvot of Adonai your God and walk in His ways.

10Then all the peoples of the earth will see that you are called by the name of Adonai and they will stand in awe of you.

11Adonai will make you overflow in prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the offspring of your livestock and the produce of your soil—on the land Adonai swore to your fathers to give you.

12Adonai will open for you His good storehouse—the heavens—to give rain for your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow.

13Adonai will make you the head and not the tail, and you will be only above and not below—if you listen to the mitzvot of Adonai your God that I am commanding you today, careful to do them,

14and do not turn aside from any of the words I am commanding you today, to the right or the left, to go after other gods in order to serve them.
