Deuteronomy 30

vehayah khi-yavo'u alekha kol-haddevarim ha'elleh habberakhah vehaqqelalah asher natatti lefanekha vahashevota el-levavekha bekhol-haggoyim asher hiddikhakha Adonai elohekha shammah

When all these things befall you—the blessing and the curse that I have set before you—and you take them to heart amidst the various nations to which the ETERNAL your God has banished you,

veshavta ad-Adonai elohekha veshamata veqolo kekhol asher-anokhi metsavvekha hayyom attah uvanekha bekhol-levavekha uvekhol-nafshekha

and you return to the ETERNAL your God, and you and your children heed God’s command with all your heart and soul, just as I enjoin upon you this day,

veshav Adonai elohekha et-shevutekha verikhamekha veshav veqibbetskha mikkol-ha'ammim asher hefitsekha Adonai elohekha shammah

then the ETERNAL your God will restore your fortunes and take you back in love. You will be brought together again from all the peoples where the ETERNAL your God has scattered you.

im-yihyeh niddakhakha biqtseh hashamayim misham yeqabbetskha Adonai elohekha umisham yiqqakhekha

Even if your outcasts are at the ends of the world, from there the ETERNAL your God will gather you—from there you will be fetched.

vehevi'akha Adonai elohekha el-ha'arets asher-yareshu avotekha virishtah vehetivkha vehirbekha me'avotekha

And the ETERNAL your God will bring you to the land that your ancestors possessed, and you shall possess it; and you will be made more prosperous and more numerous than your ancestors.

umal Adonai elohekha et-levavekha ve'et-levav zarekha le'ahavah et-Adonai elohekha bekhol-levavekha uvekhol-nafshekha lema'an khayyekha

Then the ETERNAL your God will open up your heart and the hearts of your offspring—to love the ETERNAL your God with all your heart and soul, in order that you may live.

venatan Adonai elohekha et kol-ha'alot ha'elleh al-oyevekha ve'al-sone'ekha asher redafukha

The ETERNAL your God will inflict all those curses upon the enemies and foes who persecuted you.

ve'attah tashuv veshamata beqol Adonai ve'asita et-kol-mitsvotayw asher anokhi metsavvekha hayyom

You, however, will again heed GOD and obey all the commandments that I enjoin upon you this day.

vehotirekha Adonai elohekha bekhol ma'aseh yadekha bifri vitnekha uvifri vehemtekha uvifri admatekha letovah ki yashuv Adonai lasus alekha letov ka'asher-sas al-avotekha

And the ETERNAL your God will grant you abounding prosperity in all your undertakings, in your issue from the womb, the offspring of your cattle, and your produce from the soil. For GOD will again delight in your well-being as in that of your ancestors,

ki tishma beqol Adonai elohekha lishmor mitsvotayw vekhuqqotayw hakketuvah besefer hattorah hazzeh ki tashuv el-Adonai elohekha bekhol-levavekha uvekhol-nafshekha

since you will be heeding the ETERNAL your God and keeping the commandments and laws that are recorded in this book of the Teaching—once you return to the ETERNAL your God with all your heart and soul.

ki hammitsvah hazzot asher anokhi metsavvekha hayyom lo-niflet hiv mimmekha velo rekhoqah hiv

Surely, this Instruction that I enjoin upon you this day is not too baffling for you, nor is it beyond reach.

lo vashamayim hiv lemor mi ya'aleh-llanu hashamaymah veyiqqakheha lanu veyashmi'enu otah vena'asennah

It is not in the heavens, that you should say, “Who among us can go up to the heavens and get it for us and impart it to us, that we may observe it?”

velo-me'ever layyam hiv lemor mi ya'avor-lanu el-ever hayyam veyiqqakheha lanu veyashmi'enu otah vena'asennah

Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, “Who among us can cross to the other side of the sea and get it for us and impart it to us, that we may observe it?”

ki-qarov elekha haddavar me'od befikha uvilvavekha la'asoto

No, the thing is very close to you, in your mouth and in your heart, to observe it.

re'eh natatti lefanekha hayyom et-hakhayyim ve'et-hattov ve'et-hammavet ve'et-hara

See, I set before you this day life and prosperity, death and adversity.

asher anokhi metsavvekha hayyom le'ahavah et-Adonai elohekha lalekhet bidrakhayw velishmor mitsvotayw vekhuqqotayw umishpatayw vekhayita veravita uverakhkha Adonai elohekha ba'arets asher-attah va-shammah lerishtah

For I command you this day, to love the ETERNAL your God, to walk in God’s ways, and to keep God’s commandments, laws, and rules—that you may thrive and increase, and that the ETERNAL your God may bless you in the land that you are about to enter and possess.

ve'im-yifneh levavekha velo tishma veniddakhta vehishtakhavita lelohim akherim va'avadtam

But if your heart turns away and you give no heed, and are lured into the worship and service of other gods,

higgadti lakhem hayyom ki avod tovedun lo-ta'arikhun yamim al-ha'adamah asher attah over et-hayyarden lavo shammah lerishtah

I declare to you this day that you shall certainly perish; you shall not long endure on the soil that you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.

ha'idoti vakhem hayyom et-hashamayim ve'et-ha'arets hakhayyim vehammavet natatti lefanekha habberakhah vehaqqelalah uvakharta bakhayyim lema'an tikhyeh attah vezarekha

I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day: I have put before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life—if you and your offspring would live—

le'ahavah et-Adonai elohekha lishmoa beqolo uledovqah-vo ki hu khayyekha ve'orekh yamekha lashevet al-ha'adamah asher nishba Adonai la'avotekha le'avraham leyitskhaq uleya'aqov latet lahem

by loving the ETERNAL your God, by heeding God’s commands, and by holding fast to [God]. For thereby you shall have life and shall long endure upon the soil that GOD swore to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them.
