Deuteronomy 30

It shall happen, when all these things are 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 Allah your God has driven you, ²and shall return to Allah 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; ³that then Allah your God will turn your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, where Allah your God has scattered you. ⁴If any of your outcasts are in a place beyond the horizon, from there will Allah your God gather you, and from there will he bring you back: ⁵and Allah 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. ⁶Allah your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your seed, to love Allah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live. ⁷Allah your God will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you. ⁸You shall return and obey the voice of Allah, and do all his commandments which I command you this day. ⁹Allah your God will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your cattle, and in the fruit of your ground, for good: for Allah will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers; ¹⁰if you shall obey the voice of Allah your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this Book of the Taurat; if you turn to Allah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul. ¹¹For this commandment which I command you this day, it is not too hard for you, neither is it far off. ¹²It is not in heaven, that you should say, Who will go up to heaven[1] for us, and bring it to us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it? ¹³Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, Who will go down to the sea[2] for us, and bring it to us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it? ¹⁴But the word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart,[3] that you may do it. ¹⁵Behold, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil; ¹⁶in that I command you this day to love Allah your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that Allah your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it. ¹⁷But if your heart turn away, and you will not hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; ¹⁸I denounce to you this day, that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land, where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess it. ¹⁹I 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 seed; ²⁰to love Allah your God, to obey his voice, and to cleave to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may dwell in the land which Allah swore to your fathers, to Ibrahim, to Ishaq, and to Yaqub, to give them.
