30:1

The Ultimate Restoration and the Circumcision of the Heart

And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym hath driven thee,
30:2
And shalt return unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;
30:3
That then 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym hath scattered thee.
30:4
If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:
30:5
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
30:6

The Surgical Upgrade of the Remnant

And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
30:7
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.
30:8
And thou shalt return and obey the voice of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
30:9
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
30:10
If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law (Turah), and if thou turn unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.
30:11

The Proximity of the Word

For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
30:12
It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, "Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?"
30:13
Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, "Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?"
30:14
But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
30:15

The Absolute Binary: Life and Death

See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
30:16
In that I command thee this day to love 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
30:17
But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other lo alahiym, and serve them;
30:18
I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Yardan to go to possess it.
30:19

The Witness of the Cosmos

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
30:20
That thou mayest love 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 thy Alahiym, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Yitzchaq, and to Ya’aqob, to give them.
