And all Judah rejoiced at the oath, for they had sworn with all their heart and sought Him with all their will; and He was found by them, and Jehovah gave them rest all around.

but if you return to Me, and keep My commandments and do them, though you were cast out to the ends of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and bring them to the place where I have chosen to establish My name.

Return, O backsliding children, says Jehovah; for I am married to you. And I will take you, one from a city, and two from a family; and I will bring you to Zion.

Then you shall call on Me, and you shall go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

And I will be found by you, says Jehovah; and I will bring you back from your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you, says Jehovah. And I will bring you back into the place from where I caused you to be taken captive.

And it shall come to pass, when all these things come upon you, the blessing and the curse which I have set before you, and you call them to mind among all the nations where Jehovah your God has thrust you away,

And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the Law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.

Blessed are those who keep His Testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart.

With my whole heart have I sought You; O let me not wander from Your Commandments!

I have entreated Your favor with my whole heart; be merciful unto me according to Your Word.

QOPH: I have cried out with my whole heart; hear me, O Jehovah! I will keep Your Statutes.
