³ Therefore say to them, Thus declares the Lord of hosts: ^(A)Return to me, says the Lord of hosts, and ^(B)I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts.

^7 (A)From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my statutes and have not kept them. ^(B)Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts. ^(C)But you say, ‘How shall we return?’

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. ⁷ And the Lord your God will put all these curses on your foes and enemies who persecuted you. ⁸ And you shall again obey the voice of the Lord and keep all his commandments that I command you today. ^9 (H)The Lord your God will make you abundantly prosperous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your womb and in the fruit of your cattle and in the fruit of your ground. ^(I)For the Lord will again take delight in prospering you, as he took delight in your fathers, ¹⁰ when you obey the voice of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes that are written in this Book of the Law, when you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
