Returning To The Lord

⁶ “And the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and the hearts of your descendants [that is, He will remove the desire to sin from your heart], so that you will love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul, so that you may live [as a recipient of His blessing]. ⁷ The Lord your God will inflict all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who have persecuted you. ⁸ And you shall again listen to and obey the voice of the Lord, and do all His commandments which I command you today.
