If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.
Returning to the Almighty belongs together with getting to know God, taking His words to heart, and thereby coming into peace and good. Acquaintance with Him, reception of His instruction, and reconciliation with Him form one connected counsel with turning back to Him. The promise is that such a return leads to being built up and restored. Restoration is presented as the direct outcome of turning again to the Almighty rather than as something separate from it.
That restoration includes moral cleansing of the household life, requiring iniquity to be put far away from one's home and dwelling place. The home itself is to be cleared of wrongdoing as part of genuine return.
