Blessings for Obedience

28 If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow^(A) all his commands^(B) I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.^{(C) 2} All these blessings will come on you^(D) and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God:

¹¹ The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock^(A) and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.^(B)

¹³ The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow^(A) them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.^(B)
