10 [a]if you [b]obey the Lord your God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which (A)are written in this Book of the Law, [c]if you turn to the Lord your God (B)with all your heart and soul.
11 “For this commandment which I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you, nor is it far away. 12 It is not in heaven, [d]that you could say, ‘(C)Who will go up to heaven for us and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may [e]follow it?’ 13 Nor is it beyond the sea, [f]that you could say, ‘Who will cross the sea for us and get it for us and proclaim it to us, so that we may [g]follow it?’ 14 On the contrary, the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may [h]follow it.

When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. 49 But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete.”
