Deuteronomy 28:13 in Context — Deuteronomy 28
11 E te fará o SENHOR superabundar em bens, no fruto de teu ventre, e no fruto de teu animal, e no fruto de tua terra, na terra que o SENHOR jurou aos teus pais que te havia de dar.
12 O SENHOR te abrirá seu bom depósito, o céu, para dar chuva à tua terra em seu tempo, e para abençoar toda obra de tuas mãos. E emprestarás a muitas nações, e tu não tomarás emprestado.
13 E te porá o SENHOR por cabeça, e não por cauda: e estarás encima somente, e não estarás debaixo; quando obedeceres aos mandamentos do SENHOR teu Deus, que eu te ordeno hoje, para que os guardes e cumpras.
14 E não te desvies de todas as palavras que eu vos mando hoje, nem à direita nem à esquerda, para ir atrás de deuses alheios para servir-lhes.
15 E será, se não ouvires a voz do SENHOR teu Deus, para cuidar de praticar todos os seus mandamentos e seus estatutos, que eu te intimo hoje, que virão sobre ti todas estas maldições, e te alcançarão.
