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.

English Standard Version
13 “And if you will indeed obey my commandments that I command you today, (A)to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, 14 (B)he[a] will give the rain for your land in its season, (C)the early rain and the later rain, that you may gather in your grain and your wine and your oil. 15 (D)And he will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and (E)you shall eat and be full. 16 Take care (F)lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and (G)serve other gods and worship them; 17 then (H)the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and he (I)will shut up the heavens, so that there will be no rain, and the land will yield no fruit, and (J)you will perish quickly off the good land that the Lord is giving you.
