Deuteronomy 7:12

Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:

KJV

Si postquam audieris hæc judicia, custodieris ea, et feceris, custodiet et Dominus Deus tuus pactum tibi, et misericordiam quam juravit patribus tuis :

Vulgate

Καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν ἀκούσητε τὰ δικαιώματα ταῦτα, καὶ φυλάξητε καὶ ποιήσητε αὐτά, καὶ διαφυλάξει Κύριος ὁ θεός σού σοι τὴν διαθήκην καὶ τὸ ἔλεος ὃ ὤμοσεν τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν·

LXX

And it shall come to pass, because ye hearken to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that Jehovah thy God will keep with thee the covenant and the lovingkindness which he sware unto thy fathers:
