1 Sucederá que cuando lleguen sobre ti todas estas cosas, la bendición y la maldición que acabo de presentar delante de ti, y tú cambies de mente en medio de todas las naciones adonde te esparza Yavé tu ʼElohim,
1 It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations where Yahweh your God has driven you,
2 regreses a Yavé tu ʼElohim, y obedezcas su voz, conforme a todo lo que yo te mando hoy, tú y tus hijos, con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma,
2 and return to Yahweh your God and obey his voice according to all that I command you today, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul,
3 entonces Yavé hará volver tu cautividad y tendrá misericordia de ti. Volverá a recogerte de entre los pueblos adonde Yavé tu ʼElohim te esparció.
3 that then Yahweh your God will release you from captivity, have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples where Yahweh your God has scattered you.
4 Aunque tus desterrados estén en lo más lejano debajo del cielo, desde allí te recogerá Yavé tu ʼElohim, y desde allí te regresará.
4 If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from there Yahweh your God will gather you, and from there he will bring you back.
5 Yavé tu ʼElohim te volverá a traer a la tierra que poseyeron tus antepasados, y tú la poseerás. Él te hará bien y te multiplicará más que a tus antepasados.
5 Yahweh your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you will possess it. He will do you good, and increase your numbers more than your fathers.
6 Yavé tu ʼElohim circuncidará tu corazón y el corazón de tus descendientes para que ames a Yavé tu ʼElohim con todo tu corazón y con toda tu alma, a fin de que vivas.
6 Yahweh your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, to love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 Yavé tu ʼElohim pondrá todas estas maldiciones sobre tus enemigos, y sobre los que te aborrecen y te persiguieron.
7 Yahweh your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
8 Tú volverás a escuchar la voz de Yavé y practicarás todos sus Mandamientos que yo te ordeno hoy.
8 You shall return and obey Yahweh’s voice, and do all his commandments which I command you today.
9 Yavé tu ʼElohim te hará abundar en toda obra de tu mano, el fruto de tu vientre, el fruto de tu ganado y el producto de tu tierra. Porque Yavé volverá a deleitarse en ti para bien, como se deleitó en tus antepasados,
9 Yahweh your God will make you prosperous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, for good; for Yahweh will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers,
10 si tú obedeces la voz de Yavé tu ʼElohim para guardar sus Mandamientos y sus Estatutos que están escritos en el rollo de esta Ley, porque te volviste a Yavé tu ʼElohim con todo tu corazón y toda tu alma.
10 if you will obey Yahweh your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, if you turn to Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
11 Porque este mandamiento que yo te ordeno hoy no es demasiado difícil para ti, ni está fuera de tu alcance.
11 For this commandment which I command you today is not too hard for you or too distant.
12 No está en el cielo, para que digas: ¿Quién subirá por nosotros al cielo, y nos lo traerá y nos lo hará oír para que lo cumplamos?
12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, “Who will go up for us to heaven, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”
13 Ni está al otro lado del mar, para que digas: ¿Quién pasará el mar por nosotros y nos lo traerá para que lo escuchemos a fin de que lo cumplamos?
13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, “Who will go over the sea for us, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”
14 Sino la Palabra está muy cerca de ti, en tu boca y en tu corazón, para que la cumplas.
14 But the word is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.
15 Ciertamente hoy presento delante de ti la vida y el bien, la muerte y el mal,
15 Behold, I have set before you today life and prosperity, and death and evil.
16 porque hoy te mando que ames a Yavé tu ʼElohim, que andes en sus caminos y guardes sus Mandamientos, Estatutos y Decretos, a fin de que vivas y te multipliques, para que Yavé tu ʼElohim te bendiga en la tierra adonde entras para poseerla.
16 For I command you today to love Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that Yahweh your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it.
17 Pero si tu corazón se aparta, no obedeces, te dejas extraviar, y te postras ante otros ʼelohim y les sirves,
17 But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away and worship other gods, and serve them,
18 yo les declaro hoy que ciertamente perecerán. No prolongarán sus días en la tierra adonde van, para poseerla al pasar el Jordán.
18 I declare to you today that you will surely perish. You will not prolong your days in the land where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess it.
19 A los cielos y a la tierra llamo hoy como testigos contra ustedes con respecto a que les presenté delante la vida y la muerte, la bendición y la maldición. Escoge, pues, la vida para que vivas, tú y tus descendientes,
19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants,
20 que ames a Yavé tu ʼElohim, escuches su voz y seas fiel a Él. Porque Él es tu vida y la prolongación de tus días para que vivas en la tierra que Yavé juró dar a tus antepasados, Abraham, Isaac y Jacob.
20 to love Yahweh your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days, that you may dwell in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And the holy Spirit of prophecy taught us this, telling us by Moses that God spoke thus to the man first created: "Behold, before thy face are good and evil: choose the good." And again, by the other prophet Isaiah, that the following utterance was made as if from God the Father and Lord of all: "Wash you, make you …
And therefore Moses says to them again: "Choose life, that thou mayest live, and thy seed, to love the Lord thy God, to hear His voice, to cleave unto Him; for this is thy life, and the length of thy days." Preparing man for this life, the Lord Himself did speak in His own person to all alike the words …
