New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 “If you will only heed his every commandment[a] that I am commanding you today—loving the Lord your God and serving him with all your heart and with all your soul(A)— 14 then he[b] will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the later rain, and you will gather in your grain, your wine, and your oil,(B) 15 and he[c] will give grass in your field for your livestock, and you will eat your fill.(C) 16 Take care, or you will be seduced into turning away, serving other gods and worshiping them,(D) 17 for then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and he will shut up the heavens, so that there will be no rain, and the land will not yield its produce; then you will perish quickly off the good land that the Lord is giving you.(E)

Deuteronomy 11:13-17
Common English Bible
13 Now, if you completely obey God’s[a] commandments that I am giving you right now, by loving the Lord your God and by serving him with all your heart and all your being, 14 then he[b] will provide rain for your land at the right time—early rain and late rain—so you can stock up your grain, wine, and oil. 15 He[c] will also make your fields lush for your livestock, and you will eat and be satisfied. 16 But watch yourselves! Otherwise, your heart might be led astray so you stray away, serving other gods and worshipping them. 17 Then the Lord’s anger would burn against you. He will close the sky up tight. There won’t be any rain, and the ground won’t yield any of its crops. You will quickly disappear off the wonderful land the Lord is giving to you.

13 So if you faithfully obey(A) the commands I am giving you today—to love(B) the Lord your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul(C)— 14 then I will send rain(D) on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains,(E) so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and olive oil. 15 I will provide grass(F) in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.(G)
16 Be careful, or you will be enticed to turn away and worship other gods and bow down to them.(H) 17 Then the Lord’s anger(I) will burn against you, and he will shut up(J) the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce,(K) and you will soon perish(L) from the good land the Lord is giving you.
