Deuteronomy 11:9-12
New American Standard Bible
9 and (A)so that you may prolong your days on the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give to them and to their [a]descendants, (B)a land flowing with milk and honey. 10 For the land, into which you are entering to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you used to sow your seed and water it [b]by your foot like a vegetable garden. 11 But (C)the land into which you are about to cross to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinks water from the rain of heaven, 12 a land for which the Lord your God cares; (D)the eyes of the Lord your God are continually on it, from the [c]beginning even to the end of the year.

Deuteronomy 11:9-12
New International Version
9 and so that you may live long(A) in the land the Lord swore(B) to your ancestors to give to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.(C) 10 The land you are entering to take over is not like the land of Egypt,(D) from which you have come, where you planted your seed and irrigated it by foot as in a vegetable garden. 11 But the land you are crossing the Jordan to take possession of is a land of mountains and valleys(E) that drinks rain from heaven.(F) 12 It is a land the Lord your God cares for; the eyes(G) of the Lord your God are continually on it from the beginning of the year to its end.
Jeremiah 2:7
New American Standard Bible
7 I brought you into the (A)fruitful land
To eat its fruit and its good things.
But you came and (B)defiled My land,
And you made My inheritance an abomination.
Jeremiah 2:7
