< Deuteronomy 30 >
1 “When all these things come upon you—the blessings and curses I have set before you—and you call them to mind in all the nations to which the LORD your God has banished you,
Cum ergo venerint super te omnes sermones isti, benedictio, sive maledictio, quam proposui in conspectu tuo: et ductus pœnitudine cordis tui in universis gentibus, in quas disperserit te Dominus Deus tuus,
2 and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey His voice with all your heart and all your soul according to everything I am giving you today,
et reversus fueris ad eum, et obedieris eius imperiis, sicut ego hodie præcipio tibi, cum filiis tuis, in toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua:
3 then He will restore you from captivity and have compassion on you and gather you from all the nations to which the LORD your God has scattered you.
reducet Dominus Deus tuus captivitatem tuam, ac miserebitur tui, et rursum congregabit te de cunctis populis, in quos te ante dispersit.
4 Even if you have been banished to the farthest horizon, He will gather you and return you from there.
Si ad cardines cæli fueris dissipatus, inde te retrahet Dominus Deus tuus,
5 And the LORD your God will bring you into the land your fathers possessed, and you will take possession of it. He will cause you to prosper and multiply more than your fathers.
et assumet, atque introducet in Terram, quam possederunt patres tui, et obtinebis eam: et benedicens tibi, maioris numeri te esse faciat quam fuerunt patres tui.
6 The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, and you will love Him with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live.
Circumcidet Dominus Deus tuus cor tuum, et cor seminis tui: ut diligas Dominum Deum tuum in toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua, ut possis vivere.
7 Then the LORD your God will put all these curses upon your enemies who hate you and persecute you.
Omnes autem maledictiones has convertet super inimicos tuos, et eos, qui oderunt te et persequuntur.
8 And you will again obey the voice of the LORD and follow all His commandments I am giving you today.
Tu autem reverteris, et audies vocem Domini Dei tui: faciesque universa mandata quæ ego præcipio tibi hodie:
9 So the LORD your God will make you abound in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the offspring of your livestock, and the produce of your land. Indeed, the LORD will again delight in your goodness, as He delighted in that of your fathers,
et abundare te faciet Dominus Deus tuus in cunctis operibus manuum tuarum, in sobole uteri tui, et in fructu iumentorum tuorum, in ubertate terræ tuæ, et in rerum omnium largitate. Revertetur enim Dominus, ut gaudeat super te in omnibus bonis, sicut gavisus est in patribus tuis:
10 if you obey the LORD your God by keeping His commandments and statutes that are written in this Book of the Law, and if you turn to Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
si tamen audieris vocem Domini Dei tui, et custodieris præcepta eius et ceremonias, quæ in hac lege conscripta sunt: et revertaris ad Dominum Deum tuum in toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua.
11 For this commandment I give you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach.
Mandatum hoc, quod ego præcipio tibi hodie, non supra te est, neque procul positum,
12 It is not in heaven, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will ascend into heaven to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’
nec in cælo situm, ut possis dicere: Quis nostrum valet ad cælum ascendere, ut deferat illud ad nos, et audiamus atque opere compleamus?
13 And it is not beyond the sea, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will cross the sea to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’
Neque trans mare positum: ut causeris, et dicas: Quis ex nobis poterit transfretare mare, et illud ad nos usque deferre: ut possimus audire, et facere quod præceptum est?
14 But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may obey it.
Sed iuxta te est sermo valde, in ore tuo, et in corde tuo, ut facias illum.
15 See, I have set before you today life and goodness, as well as death and disaster.
Considera quod hodie proposuerim in conspectu tuo vitam et bonum, et econtrario mortem et malum:
16 For I am commanding you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, statutes, and ordinances, so that you may live and increase, and the LORD your God may bless you in the land that you are entering to possess.
ut diligas Dominum Deum tuum, et ambules in viis eius, et custodias mandata illius ac ceremonias atque iudicia: et vivas, atque multiplicet te, benedicatque tibi in Terra, ad quam ingredieris possidendam.
17 But if your heart turns away and you do not listen, but are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them,
Si autem aversum fuerit cor tuum, et audire nolueris, atque errore deceptus adoraveris deos alienos, et servieris eis:
18 I declare to you today that you will surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.
prædico tibi hodie quod pereas, et parvo tempore moreris in Terra, ad quam, Iordane transmisso, ingredieris possidendam.
19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Therefore choose life, so that you and your descendants may live,
Testes invoco hodie cælum et terram, quod proposuerim vobis vitam et mortem, benedictionem et maledictionem. Elige ergo vitam, ut et tu vivas, et semen tuum:
20 and that you may love the LORD your God, obey Him, and hold fast to Him. For He is your life, and He will prolong your life in the land that the LORD swore to give to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
et diligas Dominum Deum tuum, atque obedias voci eius, et illi adhæreas (ipse est enim vita tua, et longitudo dierum tuorum) ut habites in Terra, pro qua iuravit Dominus patribus tuis, Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob, ut daret eam illis.
