Chap. XXX.
If the children of Israel, offending and falling into the forsaide curses shal
repent, God wil restore them to his ble&esset;ings againe. 11. leauing it in their
powre to serue him if they wil, 17. and therfore warneth them that the
impenitent shal assuredly perish, because hauing life and death, ble&esset;ing
and cursing proposed, they choose the worse.
1 Therfore when al these wordes shal be come vpon
thee, the blessing or cursing, which I haue sette forth
before thee: & thou be touched with repentance of thy hart
in al nations, into which our Lord thy God dispersed thee,
2 and shalt returne to him, and obey his commandmentes, as
I this day command thee, with thy children, in al thy hart,
and in al thy soule:
3 our Lord thy God wil bring thee againe
from thy captiuitie, and haue mercie vpon thee, and gather
thee againe out of al the peoples, into which he dispersed
thee before.
4 If thou be dispersed as farre as the poles of
heauen, thence wil our Lord thy God draw thee backe,
5 and wil take thee to him, and bring thee into the Land,
which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt obteyne it: and
blessing thee, wil make thee to be note of a greater number,
then were thy fathers.
6 Our Lord thy09Q0168 God wil circumcise
thy hart, and the hart of thy seede: that thou mayest loue
oure Lord thy God in al thy hart, and in al thy soule, that
thou mayest liue.
7 And al these curses he wil turne vpon
thine enemies, and them that hate and persecute thee.
8 But
thou shalt returne, and heare the voice of our Lord thy God,
and shalt doe al the commandmentes which I command
thee this day:
9 and our Lord wil make thee abound in al

the workes of thy handes, in the issue of thy wombe, and in
the fruite of thy cattel, in the fertilitie of thy ground, and in
the plentie of al thinges. For our Lord wil returne to reioyse
vpon thee in al riches, as he reioysed in thy fathers:
10 yet so,
if thou heare the voice of our Lord thy God, and keepe his
preceptes and ceremonies, which are written in this law:
and returne to our Lord thy God in al thy hart, and in al thy
soule.
11 This commandment, that I command thee this daie,
09Q0169 is not aboue thee, nor so farre of,
12 nor situated in heauen
that thou maiest say: Which of vs is able to ascend vnto
heauen to bring it to vs, that we may heare and fulfil it in
worke?
13 Nor placed beyond the sea that thou mayest pretend,
and say: Which of vs can passe ouer the sea, and bring
it euen vnto vs: that we way heare, and doe that which is
commanded?
14 But the word is very neere thee, in thy
mouth and in thy hart, to doe it.
15 Consider that I haue
09Q0170 set before thee this day life and good, and contrariewise
death and euil:
16 that thou mayest loue our Lord thy God,
and walke in his waies, and keepe his commandmentes and
ceremonies and iudgementes: and thou mayest liue, and he
multiplie thee, and blesse thee in the Land, which thou shalt
enter to possesse.
17 But if thy hart be auerted, and thou wilt
not heare, and deceaued with errour thou adore strange
goddes, and serue them:
18 I foretel thee this day that thou
shalt perish, and abide a litle time in the Land, which passing
ouer Iordan, thou shalt enter to possesse.
19 09Q0171I cal for witnesses
this day heauen and earth, that I haue proposed to you
life and death, blessing and cursing. noteChoose therfore life,
that both thou mayest liue, and thy seede:
20 and mayest loue
our Lord thy God, and obey his voice, and cleaue to him (for
he is thy life, and the length of thy daies) that thou mayest
liue in the Land, for the which our Lord sware to thy fathers,
Abraham, Isaac, and Iacob, that he would geue it them.
