6. You and your descendants are stubborn, but the Lord will make you willing to obey him and love him with all your heart and soul, and you will enjoy a long life.
7. Then the Lord your God will remove the curses from you and put them on those enemies who hate and attack you.
8. You will again obey the laws and teachings of the Lord,
9. and he will bless you with many children, large herds and flocks, and abundant crops. The Lord will be happy to do good things for you, just as he did for your ancestors.
10. But you must decide once and for all to worship him with all your heart and soul and to obey everything in The Book of God's Law.
11. You know God's laws, and it isn't impossible to obey them.
12. His commands aren't in heaven, so you can't excuse yourselves by saying, “How can we obey the Lord's commands? They are in heaven, and no one can go up to get them, then bring them down and explain them to us.”
