Deuteronomy 11 (WEBP)

[1] Therefore you shall love Yahweh your God, and keep his instructions, his statutes, his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
[2] Know this day—for I don’t speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Yahweh your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm,
[3] his signs, and his works, which he did in the middle of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
[4] and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued you, and how Yahweh has destroyed them to this day;
[5] and what he did to you in the wilderness until you came to this place;
[6] and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben—how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the middle of all Israel;
[7] but your eyes have seen all of Yahweh’s great work which he did.
[8] Therefore you shall keep the entire commandment which I command you today, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land that you go over to possess;
[9] and that you may prolong your days in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, a land flowing with milk and honey.
[10] For the land, where you go in to possess isn’t like the land of Egypt that you came out of, where you sowed your seed and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs;
[11] but the land that you go over to possess is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water from the rain of the sky,
[12] a land which Yahweh your God cares for. Yahweh your God’s eyes are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
[13] It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you today, to love Yahweh your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
[14] that I will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.
[15] I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
[16] Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn away to serve other gods and worship them;
[17] and Yahweh’s anger be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky so that there is no rain, and the land doesn’t yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which Yahweh gives you.
[18] Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
[19] You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
[20] You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates;
[21] that your days and your children’s days may be multiplied in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
[22] For if you shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you—to do them, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him—
[23] then Yahweh will drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
[24] Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the western sea shall be your border.
[25] No man will be able to stand before you. Yahweh your God will lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you tread on, as he has spoken to you.
[26] Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse:
[27] the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, which I command you today;
[28] and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, but turn away out of the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
[29] It shall happen, when Yahweh your God brings you into the land that you go to possess, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
[30] Aren’t they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah near Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
[31] For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Yahweh your God gives you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it.
[32] You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you today.

Young’s Literal Translation

Deuteronomy 11 (YLT)

[1] ‘And thou hast loved Jehovah thy God, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, all the days;
[2] and ye have known to-day-for it is not your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, His greatness, His strong hand, and His stretched-out arm,
[3] and His signs, and His doings, which He hath done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to all his land;
[4] and that which He hath done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He hath caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and Jehovah destroyeth them, unto this day;
[5] and that which He hath done to you in the wilderness, till your coming in unto this place;
[6] and that which He hath done to Dathan, and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth hath opened her mouth and swalloweth them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that liveth, which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel:
[7] ‘-But it is your eyes which are seeing all the great work of Jehovah, which He hath done;
[8] and ye have kept all the command which I am commanding thee to-day, so that ye are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land whither ye are passing over to possess it,
[9] and so that ye prolong days on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed-a land flowing with milk and honey.
[10] ‘For the land whither thou art going in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt whence ye have come out, where thou sowest thy seed, and hast watered with thy foot, as a garden of the green herb;
[11] but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;
[12] a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually are the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.
[13] ‘And it hath been-if thou hearken diligently unto My commands which I am commanding you to-day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve Him with all your heart, and with all your soul-
[14] that I have given the rain of your land in its season-sprinkling and gathered-and thou hast gathered thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil,
[15] and I have given herbs in thy field for thy cattle, and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied.
[16] ‘Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be enticed, and ye have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
[17] and the anger of Jehovah hath burned against you, and He hath restrained the heavens, and there is no rain, and the ground doth not give her increase, and ye have perished hastily from off the good land which Jehovah is giving to you.
[18] ‘And ye have placed these my words on your heart, and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;
[19] and ye have taught them to your sons, by speaking of them in thy sitting in thy house, and in thy going in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,
[20] and hast written them on the side-posts of thy house, and on thy gates,
[21] so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens on the earth.
[22] ‘For, if ye diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you-to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him,
[23] then hath Jehovah dispossessed all these nations from before you, and ye have possessed nations, greater and mightier than you;
[24] every place on which the sole of your foot treadeth is yours; from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Phrat, even unto the farther sea is your border;
[25] no man doth station himself in your presence; your dread and your fear doth Jehovah your God put on the face of all the land on which ye tread, as He hath spoken to you.
[26] ‘See, I am setting before you to-day a blessing and a reviling:
[27] the blessing, when ye hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, which I am commanding you to-day;
[28] and the reviling, if ye do not hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, and have turned aside out of the way which I am commanding you to-day, to go after other gods which ye have not known.
[29] ‘And it hath been, when Jehovah thy God doth bring thee in unto the land whither thou art going in to possess it, that thou hast given the blessing on mount Gerizim, and the reviling on mount Ebal;
[30] are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite, who is dwelling in the plain over-against Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?
[31] for ye are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving to you; and ye have possessed it, and dwelt in it,
[32] and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you to day.
