DEUTERONOMY 28:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:”
The LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you will only go upward and not downward, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, that I am commanding you today, by diligently observing them — hierarchy is blessed: Israel is 'head' ('rosh') not 'tail' ('zanav'). 'Going upward' implies ascent in status and fortune.
