30:16 In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk
in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his
judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God
shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
30:17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but
shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
30:18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and
that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest
over Jordan to go to possess it.
30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I
have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore
choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
30:20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey
his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and
the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the
LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give
them.

these nations from before thee, and thou shalt possess them: and Joshua,

of the Amorites, and unto the land of them, whom he destroyed.

unto them according unto all the commandments which I have commanded
you.

people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to
give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it.

thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be
dismayed.

in their hearing.
