30 If you’ve experienced the blessings, and then the curses that I’ve told you about, but then you have a change of heart there among all the nations that your god Yahweh has scattered you across, 2 and you and your children decide to return to your god Yahweh and listen to his voice, and sincerely and diligently follow everything that I’m commanding you today, 3 then your god Yahweh will show compassion towards you and reverse your capitivity, and he’ll gather you from all the peoples where he’s scattered you, and return you. 4 Even if your scattered people are at the ends of the earth, your god Yahweh would gather you from there and bring you back to your country. 5 Your god Yahweh would then bring you back into the country of your fathers, and you’d retake possession of it, and then he’d cause you to become more prosperous and more numerous than you are now. 6 He will ‘circumcise the heart of’ (remove the evil motives from) you and your children to release you to love your god Yahweh with total sincerity and diligently, so that you can live. 7 Then he will put all those curses on your enemies and those who hate you and who oppressed you. 8 After that, you’ll turn and listen to Yahweh’s voice and follow all his instructions that I’m giving you today. 9 Your god Yahweh will give you prosperity in everything you work on, and in producing children, and expanding your herds and harvesting your crops. He’ll happily cause you to prosper just like he’d done for your fathers, 10 if you listen to his voice, following his instructions and obeying his rules written in this book, i.e., if you return to your god Yahweh your God with total sincerity and with all your energy.
