What is written? (ESV)

See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil. If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away to worship other gods and serve them, I declare to you today, that you shall surely perish. You shall not live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to enter and possess.

What does it say?

See that I (Moses) have set before you life and doing good, or death and doing evil. If you obey the Lord's commandments by loving the Lord your God and walking in His ways and keeping His laws then you shall live and flourish, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess. But if your heart turns away and you don’t listen, but are pulled away to worship other gods, you will surely die and will not live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess.

What is its immediate context?

Moses is re-telling the law of God to the people before entering the Promised Land.
