Deuteronomy 11:16-18

International Children’s Bible

¹⁶ Be careful. Don’t be fooled. Don’t turn away and serve other gods. Don’t worship them. ¹⁷ If you do, the Lord will become angry with you. He will shut the heavens so it will not rain. Then the land will not grow crops. And you will soon die in the good land the Lord is giving you. ¹⁸ Remember my words in your hearts and souls. Write them down and tie them to your hands as a sign. Tie them on your foreheads to remind you.
