Deuteronomy 11:9-12 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

9. and so that you may live long in the land the Lord swore to your fathers to give them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.

10. For the land you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated by hand as in a vegetable garden.

11. But the land you are entering to possess is a land of mountains and valleys, watered by rain from the sky.

12. It is a land the Lord your God cares for. He is always watching over it from the beginning to the end of the year.
