Blessings for Obedience

26 “You shall not make ^(A)idols for yourselves or erect an ^(B)image or ^(C)pillar, and you shall not set up a ^(D)figured stone in your land to bow down to it, for I am the Lord your God. ²^(E)You shall keep my Sabbaths and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.

³^(F)“If you walk in my statutes and observe my commandments and do them, ⁴then ^(G)I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. ⁵^(H)Your threshing shall last to the time of the grape harvest, and the grape harvest shall last to the time for sowing. And ^(I)you shall eat your bread to the full and ^(J)dwell in your land securely. ⁶^(K)I will give peace in the land, and ^(L)you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid. And ^(M)I will remove harmful beasts from the land, ^(N)and the sword shall not go through your land. ⁷You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. ⁸^(O)Five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand, and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword. ⁹^(P)I will turn to you and ^(Q)make you fruitful and multiply you and will confirm my covenant with you. ¹⁰You shall eat ^(R)old store long kept, and you shall clear out the old to make way for the new. ¹¹^(S)I will make my dwelling^[a] among you, and my soul shall not abhor you. ¹²^(T)And I ^(U)will walk among you and will be your God, and you shall be my people. ¹³^(V)I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their slaves. ^(W)And I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect.
