Deuteronomy 26

1
When you have entered the land the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance and have taken possession of it and settled in it,
2
take some of the firstfruits of all that you produce from the soil of the land the LORD your God is giving you and put them in a basket. Then go to the place the LORD your God will choose as a dwelling for his Name
3
and say to the priest in office at the time, "I declare today to the LORD your God that I have come to the land the LORD swore to our forefathers to give us."
4
The priest shall take the basket from your hands and set it down in front of the altar of the LORD your God.
5
Then you shall declare before the LORD your God: "My father was a wandering Aramean, and he went down into Egypt with a few people and lived there and became a great nation, powerful and numerous.
6
But the Egyptians mistreated us and made us suffer, putting us to hard labor.
7
Then we cried out to the LORD, the God of our fathers, and the LORD heard our voice and saw our misery, toil and oppression.
8
So the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with miraculous signs and wonders.
9
He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey;
10
and now I bring the firstfruits of the soil that you, O LORD, have given me." Place the basket before the LORD your God and bow down before him.
11
And you and the Levites and the aliens among you shall rejoice in all the good things the LORD your God has given to you and your household.
12
When you have finished setting aside a tenth of all your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give it to the Levite, the alien, the fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied.
13
Then say to the LORD your God: "I have removed from my house the sacred portion and have given it to the Levite, the alien, the fatherless and the widow, according to all you commanded. I have not turned aside from your commands nor have I forgotten any of them.
14
I have not eaten any of the sacred portion while I was in mourning, nor have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor have I offered any of it to the dead. I have obeyed the LORD my God; I have done everything you commanded me.
15
Look down from heaven, your holy dwelling place, and bless your people Israel and the land you have given us as you promised on oath to our forefathers, a land flowing with milk and honey."
16
The LORD your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul.
17
You have declared this day that the LORD is your God and that you will walk in his ways, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws, and that you will obey him.
18
And the LORD has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands.
19
He has declared that he will set you in praise, fame and honor high above all the nations he has made and that you will be a people holy to the LORD your God, as he promised.


Deuteronomy 27

1
Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people: "Keep all these commands that I give you today.
2
When you have crossed the Jordan into the land the LORD your God is giving you, set up some large stones and coat them with plaster.
3
Write on them all the words of this law when you have crossed over to enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the LORD, the God of your fathers, promised you.
4
And when you have crossed the Jordan, set up these stones on Mount Ebal, as I command you today, and coat them with plaster.
5
Build there an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones. Do not use any iron tool upon them.
6
Build the altar of the LORD your God with fieldstones and offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God.
7
Sacrifice fellowship offerings there, eating them and rejoicing in the presence of the LORD your God.
8
And you shall write very clearly all the words of this law on these stones you have set up."
9
Then Moses and the priests, who are Levites, said to all Israel, "Be silent, O Israel, and listen! You have now become the people of the LORD your God.
10
Obey the LORD your God and follow his commands and decrees that I give you today."
11
On the same day Moses commanded the people:
12
When you have crossed the Jordan, these tribes shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph and Benjamin.
13
And these tribes shall stand on Mount Ebal to pronounce curses: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan and Naphtali.
14
The Levites shall recite to all the people of Israel in a loud voice:
15
"Cursed is the man who carves an image or casts an idol--a thing detestable to the LORD, the work of the craftsman's hands--and sets it up in secret." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
16
"Cursed is the man who dishonors his father or his mother." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
17
"Cursed is the man who moves his neighbor's boundary stone." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
18
"Cursed is the man who leads the blind astray on the road." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
19
"Cursed is the man who withholds justice from the alien, the fatherless or the widow." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
20
"Cursed is the man who sleeps with his father's wife, for he dishonors his father's bed." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
21
"Cursed is the man who has sexual relations with any animal." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
22
"Cursed is the man who sleeps with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
23
"Cursed is the man who sleeps with his mother-in-law." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
24
"Cursed is the man who kills his neighbor secretly." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
25
"Cursed is the man who accepts a bribe to kill an innocent person." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
26
"Cursed is the man who does not uphold the words of this law by carrying them out." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"


Deuteronomy 28

1
If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.
2
All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God:
3
You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
4
The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock--the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
5
Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.
6
You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
7
The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
8
The LORD will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The LORD your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.
9
The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the LORD your God and walk in his ways.
10
Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear you.
11
The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity--in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground--in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you.
12
The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.
13
The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.
14
Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.
15
However, if you do not obey the LORD your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:
16
You will be cursed in the city and cursed in the country.
17
Your basket and your kneading trough will be cursed.
18
The fruit of your womb will be cursed, and the crops of your land, and the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
19
You will be cursed when you come in and cursed when you go out.
20
The LORD will send on you curses, confusion and rebuke in everything you put your hand to, until you are destroyed and come to sudden ruin because of the evil you have done in forsaking him.
21
The LORD will plague you with diseases until he has destroyed you from the land you are entering to possess.
22
The LORD will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, with blight and mildew, which will plague you until you perish.
23
The sky over your head will be bronze, the ground beneath you iron.
24
The LORD will turn the rain of your country into dust and powder; it will come down from the skies until you are destroyed.
25
The LORD will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You will come at them from one direction but flee from them in seven, and you will become a thing of horror to all the kingdoms on earth.
26
Your carcasses will be food for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten them away.
27
The LORD will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors, festering sores and the itch, from which you cannot be cured.
28
The LORD will afflict you with madness, blindness and confusion of mind.
29
At midday you will grope about like a blind man in the dark. You will be unsuccessful in everything you do; day after day you will be oppressed and robbed, with no one to rescue you.
30
You will be pledged to be married to a woman, but another will take her and ravish her. You will build a house, but you will not live in it. You will plant a vineyard, but you will not even begin to enjoy its fruit.
31
Your ox will be slaughtered before your eyes, but you will eat none of it. Your donkey will be forcibly taken from you and will not be returned. Your sheep will be given to your enemies, and no one will rescue them.
32
Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation, and you will wear out your eyes watching for them day after day, powerless to lift a hand.
33
A people that you do not know will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days.
34
The sights you see will drive you mad.
35
The LORD will afflict your knees and legs with painful boils that cannot be cured, spreading from the soles of your feet to the top of your head.
36
The LORD will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation unknown to you or your fathers. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood and stone.
37
You will become a thing of horror and an object of scorn and ridicule to all the nations where the LORD will drive you.
38
You will sow much seed in the field but you will harvest little, because locusts will devour it.
39
You will plant vineyards and cultivate them but you will not drink the wine or gather the grapes, because worms will eat them.
40
You will have olive trees throughout your country but you will not use the oil, because the olives will drop off.
41
You will have sons and daughters but you will not keep them, because they will go into captivity.
42
Swarms of locusts will take over all your trees and the crops of your land.
43
The alien who lives among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower.
44
He will lend to you, but you will not lend to him. He will be the head, but you will be the tail.
45
All these curses will come upon you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the LORD your God and observe the commands and decrees he gave you.
46
They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever.
47
Because you did not serve the LORD your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity,
48
therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the LORD sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.
49
The LORD will bring a nation against you from far away, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down, a nation whose language you will not understand,
50
a fierce-looking nation without respect for the old or pity for the young.
51
They will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined.
52
They will lay siege to all the cities throughout your land until the high fortified walls in which you trust fall down. They will besiege all the cities throughout the land the LORD your God is giving you.
53
Because of the suffering that your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the LORD your God has given you.
54
Even the most gentle and sensitive man among you will have no compassion on his own brother or the wife he loves or his surviving children,
55
and he will not give to one of them any of the flesh of his children that he is eating. It will be all he has left because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege of all your cities.
56
The most gentle and sensitive woman among you--so sensitive and gentle that she would not venture to touch the ground with the sole of her foot--will begrudge the husband she loves and her own son or daughter
57
the afterbirth from her womb and the children she bears. For she intends to eat them secretly during the siege and in the distress that your enemy will inflict on you in your cities.
58
If you do not carefully follow all the words of this law, which are written in this book, and do not revere this glorious and awesome name--the LORD your God--
59
the LORD will send fearful plagues on you and your descendants, harsh and prolonged disasters, and severe and lingering illnesses.
60
He will bring upon you all the diseases of Egypt that you dreaded, and they will cling to you.
61
The LORD will also bring on you every kind of sickness and disaster not recorded in this Book of the Law, until you are destroyed.
62
You who were as numerous as the stars in the sky will be left but few in number, because you did not obey the LORD your God.
63
Just as it pleased the LORD to make you prosper and increase in number, so it will please him to ruin and destroy you. You will be uprooted from the land you are entering to possess.
64
Then the LORD will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods--gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known.
65
Among those nations you will find no repose, no resting place for the sole of your foot. There the LORD will give you an anxious mind, eyes weary with longing, and a despairing heart.
66
You will live in constant suspense, filled with dread both night and day, never sure of your life.
67
In the morning you will say, "If only it were evening!" and in the evening, "If only it were morning!"--because of the terror that will fill your hearts and the sights that your eyes will see.
68
The LORD will send you back in ships to Egypt on a journey I said you should never make again. There you will offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you.
