Deuteronomy 11
1 Therefore you shall love Jehovah your God, and keep his instructions, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
Therefore you shall love the Lord your God, and shall observe his appointments, and his ordinances, and his commandments, and his judgments, always.
2 Know this day: for I do not speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
And you shall know this day; for [I speak] not to your children, who know not and have not seen the discipline of the Lord your God, and his wonderful works, and his strong hand, and his high arm,
3 and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
and his miracles, and his wonders, which he wrought in the midst of Egypt on Pharao king of Egypt, and all his land;
4 and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how Jehovah has destroyed them to this day;
and what he did to the host of the Egyptians, and to their chariots, and their cavalry, and their host; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overwhelm the face of them as they pursued after you, and the Lord destroyed them until this day;
5 and what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place;
and all the things which he did to you in the wilderness until you came into this place;
6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:
and all the things that he did to Dathan and Abiron the sons of Eliab the son of Ruben, whom the earth opening her mouth swallowed up, and their houses, and their tents, and all their substance that was with them, in the midst of all Israel:
7 but your eyes have seen all the great work of Jehovah which he did.
for your eyes have seen all the mighty works of the Lord, which he wrought among you today.
8 Therefore you shall keep every commandment which I command you this day, that you may be strong, and multiply, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;
And you shall keep all his commandments, as many as I command you today, that you may live, and be multiplied, and that you may go in and inherit the land, into which you go across Jordan to inherit it:
9 and that you may prolong your days in the land, which Jehovah swore to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
that you may live long upon the land, which the Lord sware to your fathers to give to them, and to their seed after them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 For the land, where you go in to possess it, isn't as the land of Egypt, that you came out from, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your feet, as a garden of herbs;
For the land into which you go to inherit it, is not as the land of Egypt, whence you came out, whenever they sow the seed, and water it with their feet, as a garden of herbs:
11 but the land, where you go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water of the rain of the sky,
but the land into which you go to inherit it, is a land of mountains and plains; it shall drink water of the rain of heaven.
12 a land which Jehovah your God cares for: the eyes of Jehovah your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
A land which the Lord your God surveys continually, the eyes of the Lord your God are upon it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
13 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Now if you will indeed listen to all the commands which I charge you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul,
14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil.
then he shall give to your land the early and latter rain in its season, and you shall bring in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.
15 I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
And he shall give food in your fields to your cattle; and when you have eaten and are full,
16 Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
take heed to yourself that your heart be not puffed up, and you transgress, and serve other gods, and worship them:
17 and the anger of Jehovah be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which Jehovah gives you.
and the Lord be angry with you, and restrain the heaven; and there shall not be rain, and the earth shall not yield its fruit, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land, which the Lord has given you.
18 Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.
And you shall store these words in your heart and in your soul, and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and it shall be fixed before your eyes.
19 You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
And you shall teach them to your children, so as to speak about them when you sit in the house, and when you walk by the way, and when you sleep, and when you rise up.
20 You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;
And you shall write them on the lintels of your houses, and on your gates;
21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
that your days may be long, and the days of your children, upon the land which the Lord sware to your fathers to give to them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you to do, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him;
And it shall come to pass that if you will indeed listen to all these commands, which I charge you to observe this day, to love the Lord our God, and to walk in all his ways, and to cleave close to him;
23 then will Jehovah drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
then the Lord shall cast out all these nations before you, and you shall inherit great nations and stronger than yourselves.
24 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Perath, even to the western sea shall be your border.
Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be your; from the wilderness and Antilibanus, and from the great river, the river Euphrates, even as far as the west sea shall be your coasts.
25 No man shall be able to stand before you: Jehovah your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread on, as he has spoken to you.
No one shall stand before you; and the Lord your God will put the fear of you and the dread of you on the face of all the land, on which you shall tread, as he told you.
26 Look, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
Behold, I set before you this day the blessing and the curse;
27 the blessing, if you shall listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day;
the blessing, if you listen to the commands of the Lord your God, all that I command you this day;
28 and the curse, if you shall not listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.
and the curse, if you do not listen to the commands of the Lord our God, as many as I command you this day, and you wander from the way which I have commanded you, having gone to serve other gods, which you know not.
29 It shall happen, when Jehovah your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land into which you go over to inherit it, then you shall put blessing on mount Garizin, and the curse upon mount Gaebal.
30 Aren't they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
Behold! are not these beyond Jordan, behind, westward in the land of Chanaan, which lies westward near Golgol, by the high oak?
31 For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God gives you, and you shall possess it, and dwell in it.
For you are passing over Jordan, to go in and inherit the land, which the Lord our God gives you to inherit always, and you shall dwell in it.
32 You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
And you shall take heed to do all his ordinances, and these judgments, as many as I set before you today.
