Blessings for Obedience

Deuteronomy 28:1-14
1And it shall be, if you indeed hear the voice of the LORD your God, to keep and to do all his commandments that I command you today, then the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. 2And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you hear the voice of the LORD your God. 3You shall be blessed in the city, and you shall be blessed in the field. 4The fruit of your womb shall be blessed, and the fruit of your land, and the fruit of your livestock—the offspring of your cattle and the offspring of your flock. 5Your basket shall be blessed, and your kneading trough. 6You shall be blessed when you come in, and you shall be blessed when you come out. 7The LORD will give your enemies who rise against you, stricken before you; they shall come out against you by one way and flee before you by seven ways. 8The LORD will command the blessing for you in your storehouses and in every sending of your hand, and he will bless you in the land that the LORD your God gives you. 9The LORD will raise you up for himself as a holy people, just as he swore to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD your God and walk in his ways. 10And all the peoples of the land shall see that the name of the LORD has been called upon you, and they shall fear because of you. 11And the LORD will cause you to remain for good in the fruit of your belly and in the fruit of your animal and in the fruit of your land, upon the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give you. 12The LORD will open to you his good treasure, the heavens, to give rain for your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. 13And the LORD will make you the head and not the tail, and you shall be only above and shall not be beneath, because you hear the commandments of the LORD your God that I command you today, to keep and to do. 14And you shall not turn aside from any of the words that I command you today, to the right or to the left, by walking after other gods to serve them.
