Deuteronomy 30
1 It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations where the LORD your God has driven you,
“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；
2 and return to the LORD your God and obey his voice according to all that I command you today, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul,
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；
3 that then the LORD your God will release you from captivity, have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples where the LORD your God has scattered you.
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。
4 If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you, and from there he will bring you back.
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。
5 The LORD your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you will possess it. He will do you good, and increase your numbers more than your fathers.
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。
6 The LORD your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, to love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.
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。
7 The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
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。
8 You shall return and obey the LORD’s voice, and do all his commandments which I command you today.
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。
9 The LORD your God will make you prosperous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, for good; for the LORD will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers,
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。
10 if you will obey the LORD your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, if you turn to the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
11 For this commandment which I command you today is not too hard for you or too distant.
“我今日所吩咐你的诫命不是你难行的，也不是离你远的；
12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, “Who will go up for us to heaven, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”
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？’
13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, “Who will go over the sea for us, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”
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？’
14 But the word is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.
这话却离你甚近，就在你口中，在你心里，使你可以遵行。
15 Behold, I have set before you today life and prosperity, and death and evil.
“看哪，我今日将生与福，死与祸，陈明在你面前。
16 For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that the LORD your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it.
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。
17 But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away and worship other gods, and serve them,
倘若你心里偏离，不肯听从，却被勾引去敬拜事奉别神，
18 I declare to you today that you will surely perish. You will not prolong your days in the land where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess it.
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。
19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants,
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；
20 to love the LORD your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days, that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
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。”
