Deuteronomy 30 - Tree of Life Version(TLV)

1“Now when all these things come upon you—the blessing and the curse that I have set before you—and you take them to heart in all the nations where Adonai

your God has banished you,

2and you return to Adonai

your God and listen to His voice according to all that I am commanding you today—you and your children—with all your heart and with all your soul,

3then Adonai

your God will bring you back from captivity and have compassion on you, and He will return and gather you from all the peoples where Adonai

your God has scattered you.

4Even if your outcasts are at the ends of the heavens, from there Adonai

your God will gather you, and from there He will bring you.

5Adonai

your God will bring you into the land that your fathers possessed, and you will possess it; and He will do you good and multiply you more than your fathers.

6Also Adonai

your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants—to love Adonai

your God with all your heart and with all your soul, in order that you may live.

7“Adonai

your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.

8Then you—you will return and listen to the voice of Adonai

and do all His mitzvot that I am commanding you today.

9Adonai

your God will make you prosper in all the work of your hand—in the fruit of your womb, and the offspring of your livestock, and the produce of your soil—for good. For Adonai

will again rejoice over you for good, as He rejoiced over your fathers—

10when you listen to the voice of Adonai

your God, to keep His mitzvot and His statutes that are written in this scroll of the Torah, when you turn to Adonai

your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

11“For this mitzvah that I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you, nor is it far off.

12It is not in the heavens, that you should say, ‘Who will go up for us to the heavens and get it for us, and have us hear it so we may do it?’

13Nor is it across the sea, that you should say, ‘Who will cross over for us to the other side of the sea and get it for us, and have us hear it so we may do it?’

14No, the word is very near to you—in your mouth and in your heart, to do it.

15“See, I have set before you today life and good, and death and evil.

16What I am commanding you today is to love Adonai

your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His mitzvot, statutes and ordinances. Then you will live and multiply, and Adonai

your God will bless you in the land you are going in to possess.

17But if your heart turns away and you do not listen, but are drawn away and bow down to other gods and worship them,

18I tell you today that you will certainly perish! You will not prolong your days on the land, where you are about to cross over the Jordan to go in to possess.

19“I call the heavens and the earth to witness about you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life so that you and your descendants may live,

20by loving Adonai

your God, listening to His voice, and clinging to Him. For He is your life and the length of your days, that you may dwell on the land that Adonai

swore to your fathers—to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob—to give them.
