² and ^(A)return to the Lord your God, you and your children, and obey his voice in all that I command you today, with all your heart and with all your soul, ³ then the Lord your God ^(B)will restore your fortunes and have mercy on you, and he will ^(C)gather you again from all the peoples where the Lord your God has scattered you. ^4 (D)If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there the Lord your God will gather you, and from there he will take you. ⁵ And the Lord your God will bring you into the land that your fathers possessed, that you may possess it. ^(E)And he will make you more prosperous and numerous than your fathers. ⁶ And ^(F)the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your offspring, ^(G)so that you will love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.

⁴ But I have this against you, that you have abandoned ^(A)the love you had at first. ⁵ Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do ^(B)the works you did at first. If not, ^(C)I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent.

Blessed Is Everyone Who Fears the Lord
