29 “If you search for Jehovah your God from there, you will certainly find him,+ if you inquire for him with all your heart and with all your soul.*+

30 “When all these words come upon you, the blessing and the curse that I have put before you,+ and you call them to mind*+ in all the nations where Jehovah your God has dispersed you,+ 2 and you return to Jehovah your God+ and listen to his voice according to all that I am commanding you today, you and your sons, with all your heart and all your soul,*+ 3 Jehovah your God will then bring back your captives+ and show you mercy+ and regather you from all the peoples where Jehovah your God has scattered you.+ 4 Even if your people are dispersed to the extremity of the heavens, from there Jehovah your God will gather you and bring you back.+

47 and they come to their senses in the land where they were carried off captive,+ and they return to you+ and beg you for favor in the land of their captors,+ saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong; we have acted wickedly,’+ 48 and they return to you with all their heart+ and all their soul* in the land of their enemies who carried them off captive, and they pray to you in the direction of their land that you gave to their forefathers and of the city that you have chosen and the house that I have built for your name,+

7 And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah.+ They will become my people, and I will become their God,+ for they will return to me with all their heart.+
