11 Because of all that Yahweh your God has done for you, you must love him. Also, you must continually obey all his rules and decrees and commandments. 2 It was you and your parents, not your children, whom he personally instructed. So starting today, think about how you saw his greatness and amazing power. 3 Remember the many different miracles that he performed in Egypt. Think about what he did to the king of Egypt and everything there. 4 Your children did not see Yahweh destroy the army of Egypt, their horses, or their chariots. Your children did not see how Yahweh caused the Sea of Reeds to flood and drown the army of Egypt as they were coming after their ancestors. Yahweh continues to make Egypt’s army weak even to this day. 5 Your children did not see how Yahweh took care of their families in the desert before they all came to this place. 6 Your children did not see what Yahweh did to the rebels, Dathan and Abiram, the two sons of Eliab from the tribe of Reuben. While all of your families were watching, the earth split open, and they fell into the opening and disappeared. Their families, their tents, their servants, and their animals also disappeared with them. 7 You and your parents have seen all these miracles that Yahweh performed.
8 So obey all the commandments that I am giving you today. This is so that you will be strong and able to enter and occupy the land after crossing the river. 9 This is also so that you will live for a long time in that land. That land is the land that Yahweh solemnly promised your ancestors that he would give to them and to their descendants. The land is very fertile. 10 It is not like the land of Egypt, where your ancestors lived. In Egypt, they struggled to plant seeds and water the plants. 11 But the land that you are about to enter is a land where there are many hills and valleys. In that land there is plenty of rain. 12 Yahweh takes care of that land. He watches over it every day, from the beginning of each year to the end of each year.
13 Today I am commanding you to love Yahweh our God and to serve him with your entire inner beings. If you do that, 14 each year he will send rain on your land at the right times. As a result, you will have grain and grapes to make wine and olives to make olive oil. 15 And he will cause grass to grow in your fields for your livestock to eat. You will have all the food that you want.
16 I warn you to be careful. Otherwise, you might be tempted to stop worshiping Yahweh. And, you might start to worship other gods. 17 If that happens, Yahweh will become very angry with you. He will prevent any rain from falling. As a result, the crops will not grow. You will soon die from hunger in the good land that Yahweh is about to give to you. 18 So, keep thinking about what Yahweh has commanded you. Write copies of them and tie them to your arms and foreheads to help you to remember them. 19 Teach them to your children again and again. Talk about them at every opportunity, such as when you are in your houses and when you are walking outside. Talk about them also when you are resting and when you are working. 20 Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your city gates. 21 Do this so that you and your descendants will live for a very long time in the land. It is the land that Yahweh promised to our ancestors that he would give to them. That land will belong to you and your descendants forever.
22 Faithfully obey what I am commanding you to do. Love Yahweh our God, conduct your lives as he wants you to, and be faithful to him. If you do this, 23 then Yahweh will drive out all the people groups in that land as you advance. These are people groups that are more numerous and more powerful than you are. 24 Everywhere you go, the land will be yours. Your territory will extend from the desert in the south to the Lebanon Mountains in the north. It will extend from the Euphrates River in the east to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. 25 Yahweh our God will cause all the people in that land to be very afraid of you. No people group will be able to stop you. It will be just as he promised.
26 Be aware that today I am telling you that Yahweh will either bless you or he will curse you. 27 If you obey the commandments of Yahweh our God that I am giving to you today, he will bless you. 28 But if you do not obey them, stop worshiping him and start worshiping other gods to whom you were never faithful before, he will curse you. 29 And when Yahweh brings you into the land that you are about to enter and occupy, this is what you must do. Some of you must stand on top of Mount Gerizim and proclaim what will cause Yahweh to bless you. The others must stand on top of Mount Ebal and proclaim what will cause Yahweh to curse you.” 30 (Those two mountains are west of the Jordan River, west of the plain along the Jordan River, in the land where the Canaanites live. They live close to the sacred trees near Gilgal.) 31 “You will soon cross the Jordan River to occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you. When you start to live in that land, 32 be sure to obey all the rules and decrees that I am giving to you today.
