Deuteronomy 11:25-27

The Message

^22-25 That’s right. If you diligently keep all this commandment that I command you to obey—love God, your God, do what he tells you, stick close to him—God on his part will drive out all these nations that stand in your way. Yes, he’ll drive out nations much bigger and stronger than you. Every square inch on which you place your foot will be yours. Your borders will stretch from the wilderness to the mountains of Lebanon, from the Euphrates River to the Mediterranean Sea. No one will be able to stand in your way. Everywhere you go, God-sent fear and trembling will precede you, just as he promised.

²⁶ I’ve brought you today to the crossroads of Blessing and Curse.

²⁷ The Blessing: if you listen obediently to the commandments of God, your God, which I command you today.
