Deuteronomy 28:1-14 - The Covenant Blessings
1 And it shall be, if thou wilt, hearken, unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to observe to do all his commandments which I am commanding thee to-day, then will Yahweh thy God set thee on high, above all the nations of the earth; 2 and all these blessings shall come in upon thee, and reach thee, - because thou dost hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God: - 3 Blessed shalt, thou be in the city, - and blessed shalt thou be in the field: 4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground and the fruit of thy cattle, - the young of thy kine, and the ewes of thy flock: 5 Blessed, shall be thy basket and thy kneading-trough: 6 Blessed, shalt thou be when thou comest in, - and, blessed, shalt thou be when thou goest out:
7 Yahweh will deliver thine enemies who rise up against thee, to be routed before thee, - one way, shall they come out against thee, and seven ways, shall they flee before thee: 8 Yahweh will command to be with thee the blessing, in thy storehouses and in all whereunto thou settest thy hand, - and will bless thee in the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee: 9 Yahweh will confirm thee unto himself for a holy people, as he sware unto thee, - be-cause thou dost keep the commandments of Yahweh thy God, and dost walk in his ways. 10 And all the peoples of the earth shall see that, the name of Yahweh, hath been called upon thee, - and shall be afraid of thee. 11 And Yahweh will cause thee to abound in that which is good, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle and in the fruit of thy soil, - upon the soil which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers, to give unto thee: 12 Yahweh will open unto thee his rich storehouse - the heavens, to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless ever, work of thy hand, so shalt thou lend unto many nations, but thou, shalt not borrow: 13 And Yahweh, will give thee, to be the head, and not the tail, and thou shalt be only above, and shalt not be beneath, - because thou dost hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh thy God, which I am commanding thee, to-day, to observe and to do; 14 and dost not turn side from any of the words which I am commanding you to-day, to the right hand or to the left, - to go after other gods, to serve them,
