Deuteronomy 11
New International Version
Love and Obey the Lord
11 Love(A) the Lord your God and keep his requirements, his decrees, his laws and his commands always.(B) 2 Remember today that your children(C) were not the ones who saw and experienced the discipline of the Lord your God:(D) his majesty,(E) his mighty hand, his outstretched arm;(F) 3 the signs he performed and the things he did in the heart of Egypt, both to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his whole country;(G) 4 what he did to the Egyptian army, to its horses and chariots,(H) how he overwhelmed them with the waters of the Red Sea[a](I) as they were pursuing you, and how the Lord brought lasting ruin on them. 5 It was not your children who saw what he did for you in the wilderness until you arrived at this place, 6 and what he did(J) to Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab the Reubenite, when the earth opened(K) its mouth right in the middle of all Israel and swallowed them up with their households, their tents and every living thing that belonged to them. 7 But it was your own eyes that saw all these great things the Lord has done.(L)
8 Observe therefore all the commands(M) I am giving you today, so that you may have the strength to go in and take over the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess,(N) 9 and so that you may live long(O) in the land the Lord swore(P) to your ancestors to give to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.(Q) 10 The land you are entering to take over is not like the land of Egypt,(R) from which you have come, where you planted your seed and irrigated it by foot as in a vegetable garden. 11 But the land you are crossing the Jordan to take possession of is a land of mountains and valleys(S) that drinks rain from heaven.(T) 12 It is a land the Lord your God cares for; the eyes(U) of the Lord your God are continually on it from the beginning of the year to its end.
13 So if you faithfully obey(V) the commands I am giving you today—to love(W) the Lord your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul(X)— 14 then I will send rain(Y) on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains,(Z) so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and olive oil. 15 I will provide grass(AA) in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.(AB)
16 Be careful, or you will be enticed to turn away and worship other gods and bow down to them.(AC) 17 Then the Lord’s anger(AD) will burn against you, and he will shut up(AE) the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce,(AF) and you will soon perish(AG) from the good land the Lord is giving you. 18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.(AH) 19 Teach them to your children,(AI) talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.(AJ) 20 Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates,(AK) 21 so that your days and the days of your children may be many(AL) in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors, as many as the days that the heavens are above the earth.(AM)
22 If you carefully observe(AN) all these commands I am giving you to follow—to love(AO) the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him and to hold fast(AP) to him— 23 then the Lord will drive out(AQ) all these nations(AR) before you, and you will dispossess nations larger and stronger than you.(AS) 24 Every place where you set your foot will be yours:(AT) Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the Euphrates River(AU) to the Mediterranean Sea. 25 No one will be able to stand against you. The Lord your God, as he promised you, will put the terror(AV) and fear of you on the whole land, wherever you go.(AW)
26 See, I am setting before you today a blessing(AX) and a curse(AY)— 27 the blessing(AZ) if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today; 28 the curse if you disobey(BA) the commands of the Lord your God and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods,(BB) which you have not known. 29 When the Lord your God has brought you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim on Mount Gerizim(BC) the blessings, and on Mount Ebal(BD) the curses.(BE) 30 As you know, these mountains are across the Jordan, westward, toward the setting sun, near the great trees of Moreh,(BF) in the territory of those Canaanites living in the Arabah in the vicinity of Gilgal.(BG) 31 You are about to cross the Jordan to enter and take possession(BH) of the land the Lord your God is giving(BI) you. When you have taken it over and are living there, 32 be sure that you obey all the decrees and laws I am setting before you today.

Love and Obedience Rewarded
11 “Therefore you shall love the Lord your God, and keep His charge, His statutes, His judgments, and His commandments always. 2 Know today that I do not speak with your children, who have not known and who have not seen the [a]chastening of the Lord your God, His greatness and His mighty hand and His outstretched arm— 3 His signs and His acts which He did in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to all his land; 4 what He did to the army of Egypt, to their horses and their chariots: (A)how He made the waters of the Red Sea overflow them as they pursued you, and how the Lord has destroyed them to this day; 5 what He did for you in the wilderness until you came to this place; 6 and (B)what He did to Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, their households, their tents, and all the substance that was [b]in their possession, in the midst of all Israel— 7 but your eyes have (C)seen every great [c]act of the Lord which He did.
8 “Therefore you shall keep every commandment which I command you today, that you may (D)be strong, and go in and possess the land which you cross over to possess, 9 and (E)that you may prolong your days in the land (F)which the Lord [d]swore to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, (G)‘a land flowing with milk and honey.’ 10 For the land which you go to possess is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and watered it by foot, as a vegetable garden; 11 (H)but the land which you cross over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the rain of heaven, 12 a land for which the Lord your God cares; (I)the eyes of the Lord your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year.
13 ‘And it shall be that if you earnestly [e]obey My commandments which I command you today, to love the Lord your God and serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul, 14 then (J)I[f] will give you the rain for your land in its season, (K)the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil. 15 (L)And I will send grass in your fields for your livestock, that you may (M)eat and be [g]filled.’ 16 Take heed to yourselves, (N)lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and (O)serve other gods and worship them, 17 lest (P)the Lord’s anger be aroused against you, and He (Q)shut up the heavens so that there be no rain, and the land yield no produce, and (R)you perish quickly from the good land which the Lord is giving you.
18 “Therefore (S)you shall [h]lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your (T)soul, and (U)bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 (V)You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. 20 (W)And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21 that (X)your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, like (Y)the days of the heavens above the earth.
22 “For if (Z)you carefully keep all these commandments which I command you to do—to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, and (AA)to hold fast to Him— 23 then the Lord will (AB)drive out all these nations from before you, and you will (AC)dispossess greater and mightier nations than yourselves. 24 (AD)Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours: (AE)from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the River Euphrates, even to the [i]Western Sea, shall be your territory. 25 No man shall be able to (AF)stand [j]against you; the Lord your God will put the (AG)dread of you and the fear of you upon all the land where you tread, just as He has said to you.
26 (AH)“Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse: 27 (AI)the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you today; 28 and the (AJ)curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known. 29 Now it shall be, when the Lord your God has brought you into the land which you go to possess, that you shall put the (AK)blessing on Mount Gerizim and the (AL)curse on Mount Ebal. 30 Are they not on the other side of the Jordan, toward the setting sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the plain opposite Gilgal, (AM)beside the terebinth trees of Moreh? 31 For you will cross over the Jordan and go in to possess the land which the Lord your God is giving you, and you will possess it and dwell in it. 32 And you shall be careful to observe all the statutes and judgments which I set before you today.

Nova Versão Transformadora
11 “Amem o Senhor, seu Deus, e obedeçam sempre ao que ele exige: seus estatutos, decretos e mandamentos. 2 Lembrem-se de que hoje não falo a seus filhos, que nunca experimentaram a disciplina do Senhor, seu Deus, nem viram a grandeza, a mão forte e o seu braço poderoso. 3 Eles não viram os sinais e os atos poderosos que ele realizou no Egito contra o faraó e toda a sua terra. 4 Não viram o que ele fez aos exércitos dos egípcios e a seus cavalos e carros de guerra, como ele os afogou no mar Vermelho[a] enquanto perseguiam vocês. Ele os destruiu e até hoje não se recuperaram.
5 “Seus filhos não viram como o Senhor cuidou de vocês no deserto até chegarem aqui. 6 Não viram o que ele fez a Datã e Abirão (filhos de Eliabe, descendente de Rúben) quando a terra abriu a boca no acampamento israelita e os engoliu, junto com suas famílias, tendas e todos os seres vivos que pertenciam a eles. 7 Vocês, porém, viram com os próprios olhos que o Senhor realizou todos esses atos poderosos!”
Bênçãos pela obediência
8 “Portanto, obedeçam a todos os mandamentos que hoje lhes dou, para que tenham forças para avançar e conquistar a terra da qual estão prestes a tomar posse. 9 Se obedecerem, terão vida longa na terra que o Senhor jurou dar a seus antepassados e a vocês, os descendentes deles, uma terra que produz leite e mel com fartura! 10 Pois a terra em que vocês estão prestes a entrar para tomar posse não é como a terra do Egito, de onde vocês vieram e onde plantavam as sementes e faziam valas de irrigação com o pé, como numa horta. 11 A terra da qual em breve tomarão posse é uma terra de montes e vales, com chuva em grande quantidade, 12 terra da qual o Senhor, seu Deus, cuida continuamente, todo o ano!
13 “Se obedecerem fielmente aos mandamentos que hoje lhes dou, e se amarem o Senhor, seu Deus, e servirem a ele de todo o seu coração e de toda a sua alma, 14 ele mandará as chuvas na estação apropriada, as chuvas de outono e de primavera, para que vocês juntem suas colheitas de cereais e produzam vinho novo e azeite. 15 Ele dará bons pastos para seus animais, e vocês terão alimento com fartura.
16 “Mas tenham cuidado! Não deixem seu coração ser enganado, levando-os a afastar-se do Senhor e a adorar outros deuses. 17 Se o fizerem, a ira do Senhor se acenderá contra vocês. Ele fechará o céu e reterá a chuva, e a terra não produzirá suas colheitas. Em pouco tempo, vocês serão removidos da boa terra que o Senhor lhes dá.
18 “Gravem estas minhas palavras no coração e na mente. Amarrem-nas às mãos e prendam-nas à testa como lembrança. 19 Ensinem-nas a seus filhos. Conversem a respeito delas quando estiverem em casa e quando estiverem caminhando, quando se deitarem e quando se levantarem. 20 Escrevam-nas nos batentes das portas de suas casas e em seus portões, 21 para que, enquanto o céu permanecer acima da terra, vocês e seus filhos prosperem neste chão que o Senhor jurou dar a seus antepassados.
22 “Obedeçam cuidadosamente a todos os mandamentos que lhes dou. Amem o Senhor, seu Deus, andando em seus caminhos e apegando-se firmemente a ele. 23 Então o Senhor expulsará todas as nações de diante de vocês e, embora elas sejam muito maiores e mais fortes, vocês tomarão posse de suas terras. 24 Todo lugar em que puserem os pés será de vocês. Suas fronteiras se estenderão do deserto, ao sul, até o Líbano, ao norte, e do rio Eufrates, a leste, até o mar Mediterrâneo,[b] a oeste. 25 Aonde quer que forem em toda a terra, ninguém será capaz de lhes resistir, pois o Senhor, seu Deus, fará os povos se apavorarem e temerem vocês, como lhes prometeu.
26 “Vejam, hoje lhes dou a escolha entre bênção e maldição! 27 Vocês serão abençoados se obedecerem aos mandamentos do Senhor, seu Deus, que hoje lhes dou, 28 mas serão amaldiçoados se rejeitarem os mandamentos do Senhor, seu Deus, afastando-se de seus caminhos e adorando deuses que vocês não conheciam.
29 “Quando o Senhor, seu Deus, os fizer entrar na terra da qual em breve vocês tomarão posse, pronunciem a bênção no monte Gerizim e a maldição no monte Ebal. 30 (Esses dois montes ficam a oeste do rio Jordão, na terra dos cananeus que vivem no vale do Jordão,[c] perto da cidade de Gilgal, junto aos carvalhos de Moré.) 31 Vocês estão prestes a atravessar o rio Jordão para tomar posse da terra que o Senhor, seu Deus, lhes dá. Quando a conquistarem e estiverem vivendo nela, 32 tenham o cuidado de cumprir todos os decretos e estatutos que hoje lhes dou.”
