Deuteronomy 11:13-17
New American Standard Bible
13 “And it shall come about, (A)if you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, (B)to love the Lord your God and to serve Him (C)with all your heart and all your soul, 14 that [a](D)He will provide rain for your land in its season, the [b](E)early and [c]late rain, so that you may gather your grain, your new wine, and your oil. 15 [d](F)He will also provide grass in your field for your cattle, and (G)you will eat and be satisfied. 16 [e](H)Beware that your hearts are not easily deceived, and that you do not turn away and serve other gods, and worship them. 17 Otherwise, (I)the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and He will (J)shut up the sky (K)so that there will be no rain, and the ground will not yield its produce; then (L)you will quickly perish from the good land which the Lord is giving you.

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)
