- If you obey, blessings will overtake you / if you refuse to obey, curses will overtake you. ... These choices will also affect "the fruit of your body" (offspring).
- When Israel returns and obeys God, God will bless all that they do. This will include: "Yahweh your God will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body (= children), etc."
- Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. / Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. / Etc.
