If people are faithful to God, and keep their covenant with the Light Couple, with good deities, or with the Good Spirits, then, generally, blessings will be favorable to human well-being. That is no golden, blanket guarantee that things can never go wrong, or that tragedy cannot still occur, or that God may answers prayer later than expected or in unexpected ways that seem like prayers are not answered. But it seems to me, we are to ask, not demand, and then be grateful for what we receive.
Here is that quote from The New American Bible: “The Lord, your God, you shall worship; then I will bless your food and drink, and I will remove all sickness from your midst; no woman in your land will be barren or miscarry; and I will give you a full life span.”
Here is that same quote from the Holy Bible (KJV): “And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. There shall be nothing that cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I shall fulfill.”
My response: I did not know that the number of thy days meant a full life span lived.
