10. You will have all you want to eat. Then you will praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you.
11. “Be careful. Don’t forget the Lord your God! Be careful to obey the commands, laws, and rules that I give you today.

13. Your cattle, sheep, and goats will grow large. You will get plenty of gold and silver. You will have plenty of everything.
