Deuteronomy 11:16-18

Contemporary English Version

¹⁶ But watch out! You will be tempted to turn your backs on the Lord. And if you worship other gods, ¹⁷ the Lord will become angry and keep the rain from falling. Nothing will grow in your fields, and you will die and disappear from the good land that the Lord is giving you.

^18 (A) Memorize these laws and think about them. Write down copies and tie them to your wrists and your foreheads to help you obey them.
