Deuteronomy 30
1 It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations, where YHWH your God has driven you,
And it shall come to pass when all these things shall have come upon you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before your face, and you shall call [them] to mind amongst all the nations, wherein the Lord shall have scattered you,
2 and shall return to YHWH your God, and shall obey his voice according to all that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart, and with all your soul;
and shall return to the Lord your God, and shall listen to his voice, according to all things which I charge you this day, with all your heart, and with all your soul;
3 that then YHWH your God will turn your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, where YHWH your God has scattered you.
then the Lord shall heal your iniquities, and shall pity you, and shall again gather you out from all the nations, amongst which the Lord has scattered you.
4 If any of you are driven out to the farthest horizon, from there will YHWH your God gather you, and from there he will bring you back:
If your dispersion be from one end of heaven to the other, thence will the Lord your God gather you, and thence will the Lord your God take you.
5 and YHWH your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
And the Lord your God shall bring you in from thence into the land which your fathers have inherited, and you shall inherit it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
6 YHWH your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your descendants, to love YHWH your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
And the Lord shall purge your heart, and the heart of your seed, to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 YHWH your God will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
And the Lord your God will put these curses upon your enemies, and upon those that hate you, who have persecuted you.
8 You shall return and obey the voice of YHWH, and do all his commandments which I command you this day.
And you shall return and listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and shall keep his commands, all that I charge you this day.
9 YHWH your God will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your womb, and in the fruit of your ground, and in the fruit of your livestock, for YHWH will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers;
And the Lord your God shall bless you in every work of your hands, in the offspring of your body, and in the offspring of your cattle, and in the fruits of your land, because the Lord your God will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers:
10 if you shall obey the voice of YHWH your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if you turn to YHWH your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
if you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments, and his ordinances, and his judgements written in the book of this law, if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
11 For this commandment which I command you this day is not too difficult for you, nor is it far off.
For this command which I give you this day is not grievous, neither is it far from you.
12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who will go up into heaven for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, that we may obey it?"
It is not in heaven above, [as if there were one] saying, Who shall go up for us into heaven, and shall take it for us, and we will hear and do it?
13 And it is not in the deep of the sea, that you should say, "Who will go down into the deep of the sea for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may obey it?"
Neither is it beyond the sea, saying, Who will go over for us to the other side of the sea, and take it for us, and make it audible to us, and we will do it?
14 But the word is very near to you; it is in your mouth and in your heart and in your hand, so that you can do it.
The word is very near you, in your mouth, and in your heart, and in your hands to do it.
15 Look, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil.
Behold, I have set before you this day life and death, good and evil.
16 If you obey the commandments of YHWH your God that I command you this day to love YHWH your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, then you will live and multiply, and YHWH your God will bless you in the land where you are going to possess it.
If you will listen to the commands of the Lord your God, which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his ordinances, and his judgements; then you shall live, and shall be many in number, and the Lord your God shall bless you in all the land into which you go to inherit it.
17 But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
But if your heart change, and you will not listen, and you shall go astray and worship other gods, and serve them,
18 I declare to you this day that you will certainly perish; you will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.
I declare to you this day, that you shall utterly perish, and you shall by no means live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.
19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants;
I call both heaven and earth to witness this day against you, I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: choose you life, that you and your seed may live;
20 to love YHWH your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may dwell in the land which YHWH swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them."
to love the Lord your God, to listen to his voice, and cleave to him; for this [is] your life, and the length of your days, that you should dwell upon the land, which the Lord sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them.
