“And it will happen that if you indeed listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, to diligently observe^a all his commandments that I am commanding you today,^b then Yahweh your God will set you above all the nations of the earth. ²And all of these blessings shall come upon you, and they shall have an effect on you^c if you listen to the voice of Yahweh your God:

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

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

⁷“Yahweh will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you;^f on one road^g they shall come out against you, but on seven roads^h they shall flee before you.ⁱ ⁸Yahweh will command concerning you^j the blessing to be in your barns and in all your endeavors;^k and he will bless you in the land that Yahweh your God is giving to you. ⁹Yahweh will establish you for himself^l as a holy people as he has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of Yahweh your God and you walk in his ways. ¹⁰And all of the peoples of the earth shall see that by the name of Yahweh you are called,^m and they shall fear you.ⁿ ¹¹And Yahweh will make you successful and prosperous,^o in the fruit of your womb and on the land that Yahweh swore to your ancestors^p to give to you. ¹²Yahweh shall open for you his rich^q storehouse, even the heavens, to give the rain for^r your land in its time and to bless all of the work of your hand, and you will lend to many nations; you will not borrow from them. ¹³And Yahweh shall make you^s as head and not the tail, and you shall be only at the top of the nations, and you shall not be at the bottom, if you listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God that I am commanding you today^t and diligently observe them.^u ¹⁴And you shall not turn aside from any of^v the words that I am commanding you today^w to the right or left by going after other gods to serve them.
