Love and Serve the Lord
1 # See ch. 6:5 “You shall therefore love the Lord your God and #[Ezek. 44:16]; See Lev. 8:35keep his charge, his statutes, his rules, and his commandments always. 2And consider today (since I am not speaking to #ch. 31:13 your children who have not known or seen it), consider the discipline#11:2 Or instruction of the Lord your God, #ch. 3:24; 5:24 his greatness, #See ch. 4:34his mighty hand and his outstretched arm, 3#ch. 6:22; 7:19his signs and his deeds that he did in Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt and to all his land, 4and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses and to their chariots, #Ex. 14:27, 28; 15:9, 10; Ps. 106:11how he made the water of the Red Sea flow over them as they pursued after you, and how the Lord has destroyed them to this day, 5and #See Ps. 78:14-40what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place, 6and #Num. 16:1, 31; 27:3; Ps. 106:17what he did to Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, son of Reuben, how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel. 7For your eyes have seen #Judg. 2:7all the great work of the Lord that he did.
8“You shall therefore keep the whole commandment that I command you today, that you may #ch. 31:6, 7; Josh. 1:6, 7, 9, 18be strong, and go in and take possession of the land that you are going over to possess, 9and #See ch. 4:40 that you may live long in the land #See Gen. 50:24 that the Lord swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, #Ex. 3:8a land flowing with milk and honey. 10For the land that you are entering to take possession of it is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated it,#11:10 Hebrew watered it with your feet like a garden of vegetables. 11#ch. 8:7But the land that you are going over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water by the rain from heaven, 12a land that the Lord your God cares for. #[1 Kgs. 9:3; Jer. 24:6]The eyes of the Lord your God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
13“And if you will indeed obey my commandments that I command you today, #See ch. 6:5to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, 14#ch. 28:12; Lev. 26:4 he#11:14 Samaritan, Septuagint, Vulgate; Hebrew I; also verse 15 will give the rain for your land in its season, #[Job 29:23; Jer. 5:24; Hos. 6:3; Joel 2:23; James 5:7]the early rain and the later rain, that you may gather in your grain and your wine and your oil. 15#Ps. 104:14 And he will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and #ch. 6:11; [Joel 2:19]you shall eat and be full. 16Take care #[Job 31:27] lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and #ver. 28; See ch. 6:14serve other gods and worship them; 17then #ch. 6:15 the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you, and he #1 Kgs. 8:35; 2 Chr. 6:26; 7:13; [ch. 28:23, 24; Lev. 26:19, 20; Amos 4:7; Zech. 14:17; Rev. 11:6] will shut up the heavens, so that there will be no rain, and the land will yield no fruit, and #ch. 4:26; 30:18; Josh. 23:15, 16you will perish quickly off the good land that the Lord is giving you.
18 # See ch. 6:6 “You shall therefore lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and #See ch. 6:8you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 20#ch. 6:9You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21#See ch. 4:40 that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, #Ps. 89:29as long as the heavens are above the earth. 22For if #ch. 6:17 you will be careful to do all this commandment that I command you to do, loving the Lord your God, walking in all his ways, and #See ch. 10:20holding fast to him, 23then the Lord #See ch. 4:38 will drive out all these nations before you, and you will #ch. 9:1dispossess nations greater and mightier than you. 24#Josh. 1:3; [Josh. 14:9] Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours. Your territory shall be #See Ex. 23:31from the wilderness to#11:24 Hebrew and the Lebanon and from the River, the river Euphrates, to the western sea. 25#See ch. 7:24 No one shall be able to stand against you. The Lord your God will lay #ch. 2:25 the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread, #Ex. 23:27as he promised you.
26 # ch. 30:1, 15, 19 “See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: 27#See ch. 28:2-14the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, 28and #See ch. 28:15-45 the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside from the way that I am commanding you today, #See ch. 6:14to go after other gods that you have not known. 29And when the Lord your God brings you into the land that you are entering to take possession of it, you shall set #ch. 27:12, 13; Josh. 8:33the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal. 30Are they not beyond the Jordan, west of the road, toward the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who live in the #See ch. 1:1 Arabah, opposite Gilgal, beside #Judg. 7:1the oak#11:30 Septuagint, Syriac; see Genesis 12:6. Hebrew oaks, or terebinths of Moreh? 31For you are #ch. 9:1; 12:10; Josh. 1:11to cross over the Jordan to go in to take possession of the land that the Lord your God is giving you. And when you possess it and live in it, 32you shall be careful #ch. 5:32; 12:32to do all the statutes and the rules that I am setting before you today.
