26. See, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
27. a blessing for obeying the commandments of the Lord, your God, which I give you today;
28. a curse if you do not obey the commandments of the Lord, your God, but turn aside from the way I command you today, to go after other gods, whom you do not know.
29. When the Lord, your God, brings you into the land which you are to enter and possess, then on Mount Gerizim you shall pronounce the blessing, on Mount Ebal, the curse.
