Deuteronomy 11:18

16 “Take heed to yourselves, ^alest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and ^bserve other gods and worship them,

17 lest ^athe Lord’s anger be aroused against you, and He ^bshut up the heavens so that there be no rain, and the land yield no produce, and ^cyou perish quickly from the good land which the Lord is giving you.

18 “Therefore ^ayou shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your ^bsoul, and ^cbind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.

19 ^aYou shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

20 ^aAnd you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,

21 that ^ayour days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, like ^bthe days of the heavens above the earth.

22 “For if ^ayou carefully keep all these commandments which I command you to do—to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, and ^bto hold fast to Him—

23 then the Lord will ^adrive out all these nations from before you, and you will ^bdispossess greater and mightier nations than yourselves.
