申命记 30
1 “我所陈明在你面前的这一切咒诅都临到你身上；你在耶和华—你 神追赶你到的万国中必心里追念祝福的话；
When all these things have come on you, the blessings and the curses that I have set before you, and when you call them to mind among all the other nations where Yahweh your God has driven you,
2 你和你的子孙若尽心尽性归向耶和华—你的 神，照着我今日一切所吩咐的听从他的话；
and when you return to Yahweh your God and obey his voice, following all that I am commanding you today— you and your children—with all your heart and with all your soul,
3 那时，耶和华—你的 神必怜恤你，救回你这被掳的子民；耶和华—你的 神要回转过来，从分散你到的万民中将你招聚回来。
then Yahweh your God will reverse your captivity and have compassion on you; he will return and gather you from all the peoples where Yahweh your God has scattered you.
4 你被赶散的人，就是在天涯的，耶和华—你的 神也必从那里将你招聚回来。
If any of your exiled people are in the farthest places under the heavens, from there Yahweh your God will gather you, and from there he will bring you.
5 耶和华—你的 神必领你进入你列祖所得的地，使你可以得着；又必善待你，使你的人数比你列祖众多。
Yahweh your God will bring you into the land that your forefathers possessed, and you will possess it again; he will do you good and will multiply you more than he did your forefathers.
6 耶和华—你 神必将你心里和你后裔心里的污秽除掉，好叫你尽心尽性爱耶和华—你的 神，使你可以存活。
Yahweh your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, so you will love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live.
7 耶和华—你的 神必将这一切咒诅加在你仇敌和恨恶你、逼迫你的人身上。
Yahweh your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, those who persecuted you.
8 你必归回，听从耶和华的话，遵行他的一切诫命，就是我今日所吩咐你的。
You will return and obey the voice of Yahweh, and you will do all his commandments that I am commanding you today.
9 你若听从耶和华—你 神的话，谨守这律法书上所写的诫命律例，又尽心尽性归向耶和华—你的 神，他必使你手里所办的一切事，并你身所生的，牲畜所下的，地土所产的，都绰绰有余；因为耶和华必再喜悦你，降福与你，像从前喜悦你列祖一样。
Yahweh your God will make you abundant in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your cattle, and in the fruit of your ground, for prosperity; for Yahweh will again rejoice over you for prosperity, as he rejoiced over your fathers.
He will do this if you will obey the voice of Yahweh your God, so as to keep his commandments and regulations that are written in this book of the law, if you turn to Yahweh your God with all your heart and all your soul.
11 “我今日所吩咐你的诫命不是你难行的，也不是离你远的；
For this commandment that I am commanding you today is not too hard for you, neither is it too far for you to reach.
12 不是在天上，使你说：‘谁替我们上天取下来，使我们听见可以遵行呢？’
It is not in heaven, so that you should have to say, 'Who will go up for us to heaven and bring it down to us and make us able to hear it, so that we may do it?'
13 也不是在海外，使你说：‘谁替我们过海取了来，使我们听见可以遵行呢？’
Neither is it beyond the sea, so that you should have to say, 'Who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us and make us to hear it, so that we may do it?'
14 这话却离你甚近，就在你口中，在你心里，使你可以遵行。
But the word is very near to you, in your mouth and your heart, so that you may do it.
15 “看哪，我今日将生与福，死与祸，陈明在你面前。
See, today I have placed before you life and good, death and evil.
16 吩咐你爱耶和华—你的 神，遵行他的道，谨守他的诫命、律例、典章，使你可以存活，人数增多，耶和华—你 神就必在你所要进去得为业的地上赐福与你。
If you obey the decrees of Yahweh your God, in which I am commanding you today to love Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments, his regulations, and his statutes, you will live and multiply, and Yahweh your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess.
17 倘若你心里偏离，不肯听从，却被勾引去敬拜事奉别神，
But if your heart turns away, and you do not listen but instead are drawn away and bow down to other gods and worship them,
18 我今日明明告诉你们，你们必要灭亡；在你过约旦河、进去得为业的地上，你的日子必不长久。
then I announce to you today that you will surely perish; you will not prolong your days in the land that you are passing over the Jordan to go into and possess.
19 我今日呼天唤地向你作见证；我将生死祸福陈明在你面前，所以你要拣选生命，使你和你的后裔都得存活；
I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessings and the curses; therefore choose life so that you may live, you and your descendants.
20 且爱耶和华—你的 神，听从他的话，专靠他；因为他是你的生命，你的日子长久也在乎他。这样，你就可以在耶和华向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各起誓应许所赐的地上居住。”
Do this so as to love Yahweh your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him. For he is your life and the length of your days; do this so that you may live in the land that Yahweh swore to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”
