9
The LORD will establish you as a people holy to himself, as he has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and walk in his ways.
10
And all the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of you.
11
And the LORD will make you abound in prosperity, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your cattle, and in the fruit of your ground, within the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you.
12
The LORD will open to you his good treasury the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.
13
And the LORD will make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall tend upward only, and not downward; if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day, being careful to do them,
14
and if you do not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
15
"But if you will not obey the voice of the LORD your God or be careful to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command you this day, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you.
16
Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field.
17
Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading-trough.
18
Cursed shall be the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your ground, the increase of your cattle, and the young of your flock.
19
Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out.
