Deuteronomy

The fifth book of Moses, called Deuteronomy, chapter 30, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 30 Vulgate

   1 Cum ergo venerint super te omnes sermones isti, benedic tio et maledictio, quas proposui in conspectu tuo, et ductus paenitudine cordis tui in universis gentibus, in quas disperserit te Dominus Deus tuus,
   2 et reversus fueris ad eum et oboedieris eius imperiis secundum omnia, quae ego hodie praecipio tibi, cum filiis tuis in toto corde tuo et in tota anima tua,
   3 reducet Dominus Deus tuus captivitatem tuam ac miserebitur tui et rursum congregabit te de cunctis populis, in quos te ante dispersit.
   4 Si ad cardines caeli fueris dissipatus, inde te retrahet Dominus Deus tuus et assumet
   5 atque introducet in terram, quam possederunt patres tui, et obtinebis eam; et feliciorem et maioris numeri esse te faciet quam fuerunt patres tui.
   6 Circumcidet Dominus Deus tuus cor tuum et cor seminis tui, ut diligas Dominum Deum tuum in toto corde tuo et in tota anima tua, ut possis vivere.
   7 Omnes autem maledictiones has convertet super inimicos tuos et eos, qui oderunt te et persequuntur.
   8 Tu autem reverteris et audies vocem Domini faciesque universa mandata, quae ego praecipio tibi hodie;
   9 et abundare te faciet Dominus Deus tuus in cunctis operibus manuum tuarum, in subole uteri tui et in fructu iumentorum tuorum et in ubertate terrae tuae, in rerum omnium largitate; revertetur enim Dominus, ut gaudeat super te in omnibus bonis, sicut gavisus est in patribus tuis.
   10 Si tamen audieris vocem Domini Dei tui et custodieris mandata eius et praecepta, quae in hac lege conscripta sunt, et revertaris ad Dominum Deum tuum in toto corde tuo et in tota anima tua.
   11 Mandatum hoc, quod ego praecipio tibi hodie, non supra te est neque procul positum
   12 nec in caelo situm, ut possis dicere: "Quis nobis ad caelum valet ascendere, ut deferat illud ad nos, et audiamus atque opere compleamus?"
   13 Neque trans mare positum, ut causeris et dicas: "Quis nobis transfretare poterit mare et illud ad nos usque deferre, ut possimus audire et facere quod praeceptum est?"
   14 Sed iuxta te est sermo valde in ore tuo et in corde tuo, ut facias illum.
   15 Considera quod hodie proposuerim in conspectu tuo vitam et bonum, et e contrario mortem et malum.
   16 Si oboedieris mandatis Domini Dei tui, quae ego praecipio tibi hodie, ut diligas Dominum Deum tuum et ambules in viis eius et custodias mandata illius et praecepta atque iudicia, vives; ac multiplicabit te benedicetque tibi in terra, ad quam ingredieris possidendam.
   17 Sin autem aversum fuerit cor tuum, et audire nolueris atque errore deceptus adoraveris deos alienos et servieris eis,
   18 praedico vobis hodie quod pereatis et parvo tempore moremini in terra, ad quam, Iordane transmisso, ingredieris possidendam.
   19 Testes invoco hodie contra vos caelum et terram quod proposuerim vobis vitam et mortem, benedictionem et maledictionem. Elige ergo vitam, ut et tu vivas et semen tuum
   20 et diligas Dominum Deum tuum atque oboedias voci eius et illi adhaereas "ipse est enim vita tua et longitudo dierum tuorum "ut habites in terra, pro qua iuravit Dominus patribus tuis, Abraham, Isaac et Iacob, ut daret eam illis"

King James Version

   1 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 the LORD thy God hath driven thee,
   2 And shalt return unto the LORD thy God, 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;
   3 That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
   4 If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:
   5 And the LORD thy God 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.
   6 And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
   7 And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.
   8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
   9 And the LORD thy God 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 the LORD will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
   10 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.
   11 ¶ For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
   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?
   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?
   14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
   15 ¶ See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
   16 In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
   17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
   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 Jordan to go to possess it.
   19 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:
   20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, 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 the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
