Deuteronomy 30:1 In-Context

1 When all these blessings and curses I have described happen to you, and the Lord your God has sent you away to other nations, think about these things.

2 Then you and your children will return to the Lord your God, and you will obey him with your whole being in everything I am commanding you today.

3 Then the Lord your God will give you back your freedom. He will feel sorry for you, and he will bring you back again from the nations where he scattered you.

4 He may send you to the ends of the earth, but he will gather you and bring you back from there,

5 back to the land that belonged to your ancestors. It will be yours. He will give you success, and there will be more of you than there were of your ancestors.
