18 Therefore, take these words of mine into your heart and soul. Bind them on your arm as a sign, and let them be as a pendant on your forehead.
19 Teach them to your children, speaking of them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you get up,
20 and write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates,
21 so that, as long as the heavens are above the earth, you and your children may live on in the land which the Lord swore to your ancestors he would give them.
22 For if you are careful to observe this entire commandment I am giving you, loving the Lord, your God, following his ways exactly, and holding fast to him,
23 the Lord will dispossess all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
24 Every place where you set foot shall be yours: from the wilderness and the Lebanon, from the Euphrates River to the Western Sea, shall be your territory.
