"For this command which I enjoin on you today is not too mysterious and remote for you.
12
It is not up in the sky, that you should say, 'Who will go up in the sky to get it for us and tell us of it, that we may carry it out?'
13
Nor is it across the sea, that you should say, 'Who will cross the sea to get it for us and tell us of it, that we may carry it out?'
14
No, it is something very near to you, already in your mouths and in your hearts; you have only to carry it out.
15
"Here, then, I have today set before you life and prosperity, death and doom.
16
If you obey the commandments of the LORD, your God, which I enjoin on you today, loving him, and walking in his ways, and keeping his commandments, statutes and decrees, you will live and grow numerous, and the LORD, your God, will bless you in the land you are entering to occupy.
17
If, however, you turn away your hearts and will not listen, but are led astray and adore and serve other gods,
18
I tell you now that you will certainly perish; you will not have a long life on the land which you are crossing the Jordan to enter and occupy.
19
I call heaven and earth today to witness against you: I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Choose life, then, that you and your descendants may live,
20
by loving the LORD, your God, heeding his voice, and holding fast to him. For that will mean life for you, a long life for you to live on the land which the LORD swore he would give to your fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob."
P.S: I'm using the American Version, click this in case you wanna read the New International Version. but this version is easier, I guess.
