13 Now, if you completely obey God’s commandments that I am giving you right now, by loving the Lord your God and by serving him with all your heart and all your being,
14 then he will provide rain for your land at the right time—early rain and late rain—so you can stock up your grain, wine, and oil.
15 He will also make your fields lush for your livestock, and you will eat and be satisfied.
16 But watch yourselves! Otherwise, your heart might be led astray so you stray away, serving other gods and worshipping them.
17 Then the Lord’s anger would burn against you. He will close the sky up tight. There won’t be any rain, and the ground won’t yield any of its crops. You will quickly disappear off the wonderful land the Lord is giving to you.
18 Place these words I’m speaking on your heart and in your very being. Tie them on your hand as a sign. They should be on your forehead as a symbol.
19 Teach them to your children, by talking about them when you are sitting around your house and when you are out and about, when you are lying down and when you are getting up.
