23. then the Lord will force all those nations out of the land ahead of you, and you will take the land from nations that are bigger and stronger than you.
24. Everywhere you step will be yours. Your land will go from the desert to Lebanon and from the Euphrates River to the Mediterranean Sea.
25. No one will be able to stop you. The Lord your God will do what he promised and will make the people afraid everywhere you go.
26. See, today I am letting you choose a blessing or a curse.
27. You will be blessed if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today.
28. But you will be cursed if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God. So do not disobey the commands I am giving you today, and do not worship other gods you do not know.
29. When the Lord your God brings you into the land you will take as your own, you are to announce the blessings from Mount Gerizim and the curses from Mount Ebal.
30. (These mountains are on the other side of the Jordan River, to the west, toward the sunset. They are near the great trees of Moreh in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Jordan Valley opposite Gilgal.)
31. You will soon cross the Jordan River to enter and take the land the Lord your God is giving you. When you take it over and live there,
32. be careful to obey all the commands and laws I am giving you today.
