Deuteronomy 30:4

SalvationGod's power and sovereignty

2 and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey His voice with all your heart and all your soul according to everything I am giving you today,

3 then He will restore you from captivity and have compassion on you and gather you from all the nations to which the LORD your God has scattered you.

Even if you have been banished to the farthest horizon, He will gather you and return you from there.

5 And the LORD your God will bring you into the land your fathers possessed, and you will take possession of it. He will cause you to prosper and multiply more than your fathers.

6 The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, and you will love Him with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live.
