Deuteronomio 30

BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Cuando te sucedan todas estas cosas, la bendición y la maldición que te he propuesto, si las meditas en tu corazón en medio de las naciones donde Yahveh tu Dios te haya arrojado,	1 “Now when all these things will have fallen over you, the blessing or the curse that I have set forth in your sight, and you will have been led to repentance in your heart among all the nations to which the Lord your God will have dispersed you,
2 si vuelves a Yahveh tu Dios, si escuchas su voz en todo lo que yo te mando hoy, tú y tus hijos, con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma,	2 and when you will have returned to him, so as to obey his commandments, just as I have instructed you this day, with your sons, with your whole heart and with your whole soul,
3 Yahveh tu Dios cambiará tu suerte, tendrá piedad de ti, y te reunirá de nuevo de en medio de todos los pueblos a donde Yahveh tu Dios te haya dispersado.	3 then the Lord your God will lead you away from your captivity, and he will take pity on you, and he will gather you again from all the nations to which he had dispersed you before.
4 Aunque tus desterrados estén en el extremo de los cielos, de allí mismo te recogerá Yahveh tu Dios y vendrá a buscarte;	4 Even if you will have been scattered as far as the poles of the heavens, the Lord your God will retrieve you from there.
5 te llevará otra vez a la tierra poseída por tus padres, para que también tú la poseas, te hará feliz y te multiplicará más que a tus padres.	5 And he will take you up and lead you into the land which your fathers had possessed, and you shall obtain it. And in blessing you, he will make you greater in number than your fathers ever were.
6 Yahveh tu Dios circuncidará tu corazón y el corazón de tu descendencia, a fin de que ames a Yahveh tu Dios con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma, para que vivas.	6 The Lord your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, so that you may love the Lord your God with your entire heart and with your entire soul, so that you may be able to live.
7 Yahveh tu Dios descargará todas sus imprecaciones sobre los enemigos y adversarios que te han perseguido.	7 And he will turn all these curses upon your enemies, and upon those who hate and persecute you.
8 Tú volverás a escuchar la voz de Yahveh tu Dios y pondrás en práctica todos sus mandamientos que yo te prescribo hoy.	8 But you shall return, and you shall listen to the voice of the Lord your God. And you shall carry out all the commandments which I am entrusting to you this day.
9 Yahveh tu Dios te hará prosperar en todas tus obras, en el fruto de tus entrañas, el fruto de tu ganado y el fruto de tu suelo. Porque de nuevo se complacerá Yahveh en tu felicidad, como se complacía en la felicidad de tus padres,	9 And the Lord your God will cause you to abound in all the works of your hands, in the progeny of your womb, and in the fruit of your cattle, in the fertility of your land, and with an abundance of all things. For the Lord will return, so that he may rejoice over you in all good things, just as he rejoiced in your fathers:
10 si tú escuchas la voz de Yahveh tu Dios guardando sus mandamientos y sus preceptos, lo que está escrito en el libro de esta Ley, si te conviertes a Yahveh tu Dios con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma.	10 but only if you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and keep his precepts and ceremonies, which have been written in this law, and only if you return to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
11 Porque estos mandamientos que yo te prescribo hoy no son superiores a tus fuerzas, ni están fuera de tu alcance.	11 This commandment, which I entrust to you today, is not high above you, nor has it been placed far away.
12 No están en el cielo, para que hayas de decir: «¿Quién subirá por nosotros al cielo a buscarlos para que los oigamos y los pongamos en práctica?»	12 Nor is it in heaven, so that you would be able to say, ‘Which of us can ascend to heaven, so as to carry it back to us, and so that we may hear it and fulfill it in deed?’
13 Ni están al otro lado del mar, para que hayas de decir: «¿Quién irá por nosotros al otro lado del mar a buscarlos para que los oigamos y los pongamos en práctica?»	13 Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you would excuse yourself by saying, ‘Which of us is able to cross the sea, and to carry it back to us, so that we may be able to hear and to do what has been instructed?’
14 Sino que la palabra está bien cerca de ti, está en tu boca y en tu corazón para que la pongas en práctica.	14 Instead, the word is near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may do it.
15 Mira, yo pongo hoy ante ti vida y felicidad, muerte y desgracia.	15 Consider what I have set forth in your sight this day, life and good, or, on the opposite side, death and evil,
16 Si escuchas los mandamientos de Yahveh tu Dios que yo te prescribo hoy, si amas a Yahveh tu Dios, si sigues sus caminos y guardas sus mandamientos, preceptos y normas, vivirás y multiplicarás; Yahveh tu Dios te bendecirá en la tierra a la que vas a entrar para tomarla en posesión.	16 so that you may love the Lord your God, and walk in his ways, and keep his commandments and ceremonies and judgments, and so that you may live, and he may multiply you and bless you in the land, which you shall enter in order to possess.
17 Pero si tu corazón se desvía y no escuchas, si te dejas arrastrar a postrarte ante otros dioses y a darles culto,	17 But if your heart will have been turned aside, so that you are not willing to listen, and, having been deceived by error, you adore strange gods and serve them,
18 yo os declaro hoy que pereceréis sin remedio y que no viviréis muchos días en el suelo que vas a tomar en posesión al pasar el Jordán.	18 then I predict to you this day that you will perish, and you will remain for only a short time in the land, for which you shall cross the Jordan, and which you shall enter in order to possess.
19 Pongo hoy por testigos contra vosotros al cielo y a la tierra: te pongo delante vida o muerte, bendición o maldición. Escoge la vida, para que vivas, tú y tu descendencia,	19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore, choose life, so that both you and your offspring may live,
20 amando Yahveh tu Dios, escuchando su voz, viviendo unido a él; pues en eso está tu vida, así como la prolongación de tus días mientras habites en la tierra que Yahveh juró dar a tus padres Abraham, Isaac y Jacob.	20 and so that you may love the Lord your God, and obey his voice, and cling to him, (for he is your life and the length of your days) and so that you may live in the land, about which the Lord swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that he would give it to them.”
