Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;

See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil;

I call heaven and earth as witness this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live:

If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:

But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
