## Deuteronomy 11:16-21 in Context (Verses 13–24 KJV)
 
 [13 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/13) ¶ And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
 
 [14 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/14) That I will give *you* the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/15) And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/16) Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
 
 [17 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/17) And *then* the LORD’s wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and *lest* ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/18) ¶ Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/19) And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/20) And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
 
 [21 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/21) That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/22) ¶ For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
 
 [23 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/23) Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/11/24) Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.
