1Therefore you shall love the Yahuah your Elohim, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.
2And know ye this day: for not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the Yahuah your Elohim, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
3And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;
4And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and the Yahuah has destroyed them unto this day;
5And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place;
6And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:
7But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the Yahuah which he did.
8Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where ye go to possess it;
9And that ye may prolong days in the land, which the Yahuah sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
10For the land, where you goest in to possess it, not as the land of Egypt, from from where ye came out, where you sowedst your seed, and wateredst with your foot, as a garden of herbs:
11But the land, where ye go to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinketh water of the rain of heaven:
12A land which the Yahuah your Elohim careth for: the eyes of the Yahuah your Elohim always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.
13And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the Yahuah your Elohim, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14That I will give the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that you mayest gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.
15And I will send grass in your fields for your cattle, that you mayest eat and be full.
16Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
17And the Yahuah'S wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and ye perish quickly from off the good land which the Yahuah giveth you.
18Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
19And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when you sittest in your house, and when you walkest by the way, when you liest down, and when you risest up.
20And you shall write them upon the door posts of your house, and upon your gates:
21That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the Yahuah sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
22For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the Yahuah your Elohim, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
23Then will the Yahuah drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
24Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.
25There shall no man be able to stand before you: the Yahuah your Elohim shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he has said unto you.
26Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
27A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the Yahuah your Elohim, which I command you this day:
28And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the Yahuah your Elohim, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
29And it shall come to pass, when the Yahuah your Elohim has brought you in unto the land where you goest to possess it, that you shall put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
30they not on the other side Jordan, by the way where the sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites, which dwell in the champaign over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh?
31For ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the Yahuah your Elohim giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.
32And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.
