The Conditional Covenant: Rain and Drought

Deuteronomy 11:13-17

"So if you listen carefully to my mitzvot which I am giving you today, to love ADONAI your God and serve him with all your heart and all your being;

then, [says ADONAI,] 'I will give your land its rain at the right seasons, including the early fall rains and the late spring rains; so that you can gather in your wheat, new wine and olive oil;

and I will give your fields grass for your livestock; with the result that you will eat and be satisfied.'

But be careful not to let yourselves be seduced, so that you turn aside, serving other gods and worshipping them.

If you do, the anger of ADONAI will blaze up against you. He will shut up the sky, so that there will be no rain. The ground will not yield its produce, and you will quickly pass away from the good land ADONAI is giving you.
