Deuteronomy 28:2–14

²All these blessings will come and overtake ^fyou, because you obey the Lord your God:

³You will be blessed in the city

and blessed in the country. ^g

⁴Your descendants ^hwill be blessed,

and your land’s produce,

and the offspring of your livestock,

including the young of your herds

and the newborn of your flocks. ⁱ

⁵Your basket and kneading bowl will be blessed.

⁶You will be blessed when you come in

and blessed when you go out. ^j

⁷“The Lord will cause the enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you. They will march out against you from one direction but flee from you in seven directions. ⁸The Lord will grant you a blessing on your storehouses and on everything you do; ^klHe will bless you in the land the Lord your God is giving you. ^m9The Lord will establish you as His holy people, ⁿas He swore to you, if you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. ¹⁰Then all the peoples of the earth will see that you are called by Yahweh’s name, ^oand they will stand in awe of you. ^p11The Lord will make you prosper abundantly with children, ^qthe offspring of your livestock, and your land’s produce in the land the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. ¹²The Lord will open for you His abundant storehouse, ^rthe sky, to give your land rain in its season and to bless all the work of your hands. ^sYou will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. ¹³The Lord will make you the head and not the tail; ^tyou will only move upward and never downward if you listen to the Lord your God’s commands I am giving you today and are careful to follow them. ¹⁴Do not turn aside to the right or the left from all the things I am commanding you today, ^uand do not go after other gods to worship them.
