1 All these blessings and curses I have said will happen to you. The Lord your God will send you away to other nations. There you will 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. You will obey everything I command you today.
3 Then the Lord your God will give you back your riches. He will feel sorry for you. And he will bring you back again from the nations where he sent you.
4 He may send you to the ends of the earth. But he will gather you. He will bring you back from there.
5 He will bring you 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.
6 The Lord your God will prepare you and your descendants to serve him. You will love him with your whole being. Then you will live.
7 The Lord your God will put all these curses on your enemies. They hate you and are cruel to you.
