That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

Verse 21 is found in chapter 11 of Deuteronomy. Moses commands the people to place God’s words in their hearts and teach them continually to their children. The law must shape family and public life, and entering Canaan is connected with obedience. The section ends by announcing the proclamation of blessing and curse on Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal, anticipating the public ratification of the covenant’s conditions.

daß du und deine Kinder lange leben in dem Lande, das der HERR deinen Vätern geschworen hat ihnen zu geben, solange die Tage vom Himmel auf Erden währen.
Para que sean aumentados vuestros días, y los días de vuestros hijos, sobre la tierra que juró Jehová a vuestros padres que les había de dar, como los días de los cielos sobre la tierra.
para que se multipliquen sus días y los días de sus hijos sobre la tierra que Jehová juró dar a sus padres, como los días de los cielos sobre la tierra.
Et alors vos jours et les jours de vos enfants, dans le pays que l'Eternel a juré à vos pères de leur donner, seront aussi nombreux que les jours des cieux le seront au-dessus de la terre.
acciocchè i vostri giorni, e i giorni de’ vostri figliuoli, sieno moltiplicati sopra la terra, la quale il Signore giurò a’ vostri padri di dar loro, come i giorni del cielo sopra la terra.
Para que se multipliquem os vossos dias e os dias de vossos filhos na terra que o SENHOR jurou a vossos pais dar-lhes, como os dias dos céus sobre a terra.
這樣,你們和你們子孫的日子必在耶和華向你們列祖起誓要給他們的地上得以增多,如天地之長久。
