25 No one will be able to stop you. The Lord your God will do what he promised. He will make the people afraid everywhere you go.
26 See, today I am letting you choose a blessing or a curse.
27 You will be blessed if you obey the commands of the Lord your God. I am giving them to you today.
28 But you will be cursed if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God. So do not disobey the commands I am giving you today. Do not worship other gods you do not know.
29 The Lord your God will bring you into the land you will own. Then you are to announce the blessings from Mount Gerizim. Announce the curses from Mount Ebal.
30 These mountains are on the other side of the Jordan River. They are west, toward the sunset. They are near the great trees of Moreh. They are in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Jordan Valley opposite Gilgal.
31 You will soon cross the Jordan River. You will enter and take the land the Lord your God is giving you. You will take it over and live there.
