1 |When you have experienced all these things, both the blessings and the curses I have set before you, you will reflect upon them in all the nations where the LORD your God has banished you. “And when all these things come upon you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you call them to mind among all the nations where the LORD your God has driven you, When all these blessings and curses I have set before you come on you and you take them to heart wherever the LORD your God disperses you among the nations,
2 Then if you and your descendants turn to the LORD your God and obey him with your whole mind and being just as I am commanding you today, and return to the LORD your God, you and your children, and obey his voice in all that I command you today, with all your heart and with all your soul, and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything I command you today,
3 the LORD your God will reverse your captivity and have pity on you. He will turn and gather you from all the peoples among whom he has scattered you. then the LORD your God will restore your fortunes and have mercy on you, and he will gather you again from all the peoples where the LORD your God has scattered you. then the LORD your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he scattered you.
4 Even if your exiles are in the most distant land, from there the LORD your God will gather you and bring you back. If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there the LORD your God will gather you, and from there he will take you. Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you and bring you back.
5 Then he will bring you to the land your ancestors possessed and you also will possess it; he will do better for you and multiply you more than he did your ancestors.

He will bring you to the land that belonged to your ancestors, and you will take possession of it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous than your ancestors.
6 The LORD your God will also cleanse your heart and the hearts of your descendants so that you may love him with all your mind and being and so that you may live.

The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you may love him with all your heart and with all your soul, and live.
7 Then the LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies, on those who hate you and persecute you. And the LORD your God will put all these curses on your foes and enemies who persecuted you. The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies who hate and persecute you.
8 You will return and obey the LORD, keeping all his commandments I am giving you today. And you shall again obey the voice of the LORD and keep all his commandments that I command you today. You will again obey the LORD and follow all his commands I am giving you today.
9 The LORD your God will make the labor of your hands abundantly successful and multiply your children, the offspring of your cattle, and the produce of your soil.

13 And it is not across the sea, as though one must say, |Who will cross over to the other side of the sea and get it for us and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?| Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, ‘Who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it and do it?’ Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, “Who will cross the sea to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?”
