`And it hath been, when all these things come upon thee, the blessing and the reviling, which I have set before thee, and thou hast brought <FI>them<Fi> back unto thy heart, among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee away,
Deuteronomy 30:1 `And it hath been, when all these things come upon thee, the blessing and the reviling, which I have set before thee, and thou hast brought <FI>them<Fi> back unto thy heart, among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee away,
Deuteronomy 30:2 and hast turned back unto Jehovah thy God, and hearkened to His voice, according to all that I am commanding thee to-day, thou and thy sons, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul--
Deuteronomy 30:3 then hath Jehovah thy God turned back <FI>to<Fi> thy captivity, and pitied thee, yea, He hath turned back and gathered thee out of all the peoples whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.
The verse centers on "hath", "been", "things", "come", "upon", "thee", "blessing", and "reviling". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "hath" and "been", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The next verse adds "and hast turned back unto Jehovah thy...", so "hath" and "been" should be read forward into that movement. In Deuteronomy context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "hath" and "been" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
