Deuteronomy 30:2-6
30:2 Then if you and your descendants 1 turn to the Lord your God and obey him with your whole mind and being 2 just as 3 I am commanding you today,
30:3 the Lord your God will reverse your captivity and have pity on you. He will turn and gather you from all the peoples among whom he 4 has scattered you.
30:4 Even if your exiles are in the most distant land, 5 from there the Lord your God will gather you and bring you back.
30:5 Then he 6 will bring you to the land your ancestors 7 possessed and you also will possess it; he will do better for you and multiply you more than he did your ancestors.
30:6 The Lord your God will also cleanse 8 your heart and the hearts of your descendants 9 so that you may love him 10 with all your mind and being and so that you may live.
