Deuteronomy 30:11-16

Living Bible

¹¹ “Obeying these commandments is not something beyond your strength and reach; ¹² for these laws are not in the far heavens, so distant that you can’t hear and obey them, and with no one to bring them down to you; ¹³ nor are they beyond the ocean, so far that no one can bring you their message; ¹⁴ but they are very close at hand—in your hearts and on your lips—so obey them.

¹⁵ “Look, today I have set before you life and death, depending on whether you obey or disobey. ¹⁶ I have commanded you today to love the Lord your God and to follow his paths and to keep his laws, so that you will live and become a great nation, and so that the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to possess.
