"You shall therefore keep every commandment which I am commanding you today, ^(C1)so that you may be strong and go in and take possession of the land into which you are about to cross to possess it;

and ^(C1)so that you may prolong your days on the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their ^(F1)descendants, ^(C2)a land flowing with milk and honey.

"For the land, into which you are entering to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you used to sow your seed and water it ^(F1)by your foot like a vegetable garden.

"But ^(C1)the land into which you are about to cross to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinks water from the rain of heaven,

a land for which the LORD your God cares; ^(C1)the eyes of the LORD your God are continually on it, from the ^(F1)beginning even to the end of the year.

"And it shall come about, ^(C1)if you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, ^(C2)to love the LORD your God and to serve Him ^(C3)with all your heart and all your soul,

that ^(F1)(C1)He will provide rain for your land in its season, the ^(F2)(C2)early and ^(F3)late rain, so that you may gather your grain, your new wine, and your oil.

"^(F1)(C1)He will also provide grass in your field for your cattle, and ^(C2)you will eat and be satisfied.
