“Keep every command I am giving you today, so that you may have the strength to cross into and possess the land you are to inherit, and so that you may live long(A) in the land the Lord swore to your ancestors to give them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.(B) 10 For the land you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated by hand[a] as in a vegetable garden. 11 But the land you are entering to possess is a land of mountains and valleys, watered by rain from the sky. 12 It is a land the Lord your God cares for. He is always watching over it(C) from the beginning to the end of the year.

13 “If you carefully obey my commands I am giving you today, to love the Lord your God and worship him with all your heart and all your soul, 14 I[b] will provide rain for your land in the proper time, the autumn and spring rains,(D) and you will harvest your grain, new wine, and fresh oil.(E) 15 I[c] will provide grass in your fields for your livestock. You will eat and be satisfied.(F)
