Deuteronomy 7:12-15
Lexham English Bible
12 “And then[a] because you listen to these regulations and you diligently keep and you do them, then Yahweh your God will maintain his[b] covenant and his[c] loyal love that he swore to your ancestors.[d] 13 And he will love you, and he will bless you, and he will multiply you, and he will bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your soil, your grain, your wine, and your olive oil, and newborn calves of your cattle, and the newborn lambs[e] of your flocks in the land that he swore to your ancestors[f] to give you. 14 You shall be blessed more than all of the peoples; among you there shall not be sterility and bareness, even[g] among domestic animals.[h] 15 And Yahweh will turn away from you all the illness and all the harmful diseases of Egypt that you experienced; he will not lay them on you, but he will lay them on all of those who hate you.
