Deuteronomy 30:12-16
New American Standard Bible
12 It is not in heaven, [a]that you could say, ‘(A)Who will go up to heaven for us and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may [b]follow it?’ 13 Nor is it beyond the sea, [c]that you could say, ‘Who will cross the sea for us and get it for us and proclaim it to us, so that we may [d]follow it?’ 14 On the contrary, the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may [e]follow it.
Choose Life
15 “See, (B)I have placed before you today life and [f]happiness, and death and [g]adversity, 16 in that I am commanding you today (C)to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, so that you (D)may live and become numerous, and that the Lord your God may bless you in the land where you are entering to take possession of it.
