12. `Jehovah doth open to thee his good treasure--the heavens--to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless all the work of thy hand, and thou hast lent to many nations, and thou--thou dost not borrow.
13. `And Jehovah hath given thee for head, and not for tail; and thou hast been only above, and art not beneath, for thou dost hearken unto the commands of Jehovah thy God, which I am commanding thee to-day, to keep and to do,
14. and thou dost not turn aside from all the words which I am commanding you to-day--right or left--to go after other gods, to serve them.
15. `And it hath been, if thou dost not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God to observe to do all His commands, and His statutes, which I am commanding thee to-day, that all these revilings have come upon thee, and overtaken thee:
16. `Cursed [art] thou in the city, and cursed [art] thou in the field.
17. `Cursed [is] thy basket and thy kneading-trough.
18. `Cursed [is] the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, increase of thine oxen, and wealth of thy flock.
19. `Cursed [art] thou in thy coming in, and cursed [art] thou in thy going out.
