⁸ And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.

¹⁵ See, I have put before you today, life and good, and death and evil;

¹⁹ Let heaven and earth be my witnesses against you this day that I have put before you life and death, a blessing and a curse: so take life for yourselves and for your seed:

²⁶ Today I put before you a blessing and a curse:

¹⁹ If you will give ear to my word and do it, the good things of the land will be yours;

²⁰ But if your hearts are turned against me, I will send destruction on you by the sword; so the Lord has said.
