- the blessing:
- "See,ª° I have setª° beforeª thee this dayª¹ lifeª and good,ª and deathª and evil;ª" {Deu 30:15} + "I callª°¹ heavenª and earthª to record²° this dayª against you, [that] I have setª° beforeª you lifeª and death,ª blessingª and cursing:ª therefore chooseª° life,ª that¹ both thou¹ and thy seedª may live:ª°" {Deu 30:19} + "Behold,ª° I¹ setª° beforeª you this dayª a blessingª and a curse;ª ... And a curse,ª if¹ ye will not¹ obeyª°¹ the commandmentsª of the LORDª your God,ª but turn asideª° out of¹ the wayª which¹ I¹ commandª° you this day,ª to go²°¹ afterª otherª gods,ª which¹ ye have not¹ known.ª°" {Deu 11:26-28} + "And Mosesª with the eldersª of Israelª commandedª°¹ the people,ª saying,ª° Keepª°¹ all¹ the commandmentsª which¹ I¹ commandª° you this day.ª ... And among theseª nationsª shalt thou find no ease,ª°¹ neither¹ shall the soleª of thy footª have¹ rest:ª but the LORDª shall giveª° thee there¹ a tremblingª heart,ª and failingª of eyes,ª and sorrowª of mind:ª" {Deu 27:1-28:65} + "Lest¹ there should beª among you man,ª or¹ woman,ª or¹ family,ª or¹ tribe,ª whose¹ heartª turneth awayª° this dayª from¹¹ the LORDª our God,ª to go²°¹ [and] serveª°¹ the godsª of these¹ nations;ª lest¹ there should beª among you a rootª that bearethª° gallª and wormwood;ª ... [And that] the whole¹ landª thereof [is] brimstone,ª and salt,ª [and] burning,ª [that] it is not¹ sown,ª° nor¹ beareth,ª° nor¹ any¹ grassª growethª° therein, like the overthrowª of Sodom,ª and Gomorrah,ª Admah,ª and Zeboim,ª which¹ the LORDª overthrewª° in his anger,ª and in his wrath:ª" {Deu 29:18-23} + "Ye shall makeª° you no¹ idolsª nor graven image,ª neither¹ rear you upª° a standing image,ª neither¹ shall ye set upª° [any] imageª of stoneª in your land,ª to bow downª° unto¹ it: for¹ I¹ [am] the LORDª your God.ª ... These¹ [are] the statutesª and judgmentsª and laws,ª which¹ the LORDª madeª° between¹ him and the childrenª of Israelª in mountª Sinaiª by the handª of Moses.ª" {Lev 26:1-46}
