Prosperity Will Follow Repentance

30 When all these things come upon you, both the blessing and the curse that I have given you, and you take them to heart while you are among all the nations to which the Lord your God has banished you, and when you return to the Lord your God and listen to his voice with all your heart and soul, in every way that I am commanding you today, you and your children, then the Lord your God will restore you from your captivity. He will have compassion on you, and he will gather you together again out of all the peoples where the Lord your God has scattered you. Even if your banished people are at the end of the heavens, the Lord your God will gather you together there and take you away from there. The Lord your God will bring you back to the land that your fathers possessed, and then you will possess it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous than your fathers.

The Lord your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, with the result that you will live.

Then the Lord your God will place all these curses on your enemies and on those who hated you and persecuted you. Once again you will listen to the voice of the Lord, and you will carry out all of his commands that I am giving you today.

The Lord your God will cause you to be overflowing with good things from all the work of your hands, in the fruit of your womb, in the fruit of your animals, and in the fruit of your soil. Once again he will rejoice over your prosperity, just as he rejoiced over your fathers, 10 when you obey the voice of the Lord your God by keeping his commandments and his statutes written in this Book of the Law, when you return to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
