Leviticus 26:3-45

Leviticus 26:3-45

[3] in my statutes,  and keep  my commandments,  and do  [4] Then I will give  you rain  in due season,  and the land  shall yield  her increase,  and the trees  of the field  shall yield  their fruit.  [5] And your threshing  shall reach  unto the vintage,  shall reach  unto the sowing time:  and ye shall eat  your bread  to the full,  and dwell  in your land  safely.  [6] And I will give  peace  in the land,  and ye shall lie down,  and none shall make you afraid:  and I will rid  evil  beasts  out of the land,  neither shall the sword  go  through your land.  [7] And ye shall chase  your enemies,  and they shall fall  before  you by the sword.  [8] And five  of you shall chase  an hundred,  of you shall put ten thousand  to flight:  and your enemies  shall fall  before  you by the sword.  [9] For I will have respect  unto you, and make you fruitful,  and multiply  you, and establish  my covenant  [10] And ye shall eat  old store,  and bring forth  the old  because  of the new.  [11] And I will set  my tabernacle  among  you: and my soul  shall not abhor  [12] And I will walk  among  you, and will be  your God,  and ye shall be  my people.  [13] I am the LORD  your God,  which brought you forth  out of the land  of Egypt,  that ye should not be their bondmen;  and I have broken  the bands  of your yoke,  upright.  [14] But if ye will not hearken  unto me, and will not do  all these commandments;  [15] And if ye shall despise  my statutes,  or if your soul  abhor  my judgments,  so that ye will not do  all my commandments,  but that ye break  my covenant:  [16] I also will do  this unto you; I will even appoint  over you terror,  consumption,  and the burning ague,  that shall consume  the eyes,  and cause sorrow  of heart:  and ye shall sow  your seed  in vain,  for your enemies  shall eat  it. [17] And I will set  my face  against you, and ye shall be slain  before  your enemies:  they that hate  you shall reign  over you; and ye shall flee  when none pursueth  you. [18] And if ye will not yet  for all this hearken  unto me, then I will punish  you seven times  more  for your sins.  [19] And I will break  the pride  of your power;  and I will make  your heaven  as iron,  and your earth  as brass:  [20] And your strength  shall be spent  in vain:  for your land  shall not yield  her increase,  neither shall the trees  of the land  yield  their fruits.  [21] contrary  unto me, and will  not hearken  seven times  more  plagues  upon you according to your sins.  [22] I will also send  wild  beasts  among you, which shall rob you of your children,  and destroy  your cattle,  and make you few in number;  and your high ways  shall be desolate.  [23] And if ye will not be reformed  by me by these things, but will walk  contrary  unto me; [24] Then will I also walk  contrary  unto you, and will punish  you yet  seven times  for your sins.  [25] And I will bring  a sword  upon you, that shall avenge  the quarrel  of my covenant:  and when ye are gathered together  within  your cities,  I will send  the pestilence  among  you; and ye shall be delivered  into the hand  of the enemy.  [26] And when I have broken  the staff  of your bread,  ten  women  shall bake  your bread  in one  oven,  you your bread  again  by weight:  and ye shall eat,  and not be satisfied.  [27] And if ye will not for all this  hearken  unto me, but walk  contrary  unto me; [28] Then I will walk  contrary  unto you also in fury;  and I, even  I, will chastise  you seven times  for your sins.  [29] And ye shall eat  the flesh  of your sons,  and the flesh  of your daughters  shall ye eat.  [30] And I will destroy  your high places,  and cut down  your images,  and cast  your carcases  of your idols,  and my soul  shall abhor  [31] And I will make  your cities  waste,  your sanctuaries  unto desolation,  and I will not smell  the savour  of your sweet odours.  [32] the land  into desolation:  and your enemies  which dwell  therein shall be astonished  at it. [33] And I will scatter  you among the heathen,  and will draw out  a sword  after  you: and your land  shall be desolate,  and your cities  waste.  [34] Then shall the land  enjoy  her sabbaths,  as long  as it lieth desolate,  and ye be in your enemies'  land;  rest,  and enjoy  her sabbaths.  [35] As long as  it lieth desolate  it shall rest;  in your sabbaths,  when ye dwelt  [36] And upon them that are left  alive of you I will send  a faintness  into their hearts  in the lands  of their enemies;  and the sound  of a shaken  leaf  shall chase  them; and they shall flee,  as fleeing  from a sword;  and they shall fall  when none pursueth.  [37] And they shall fall  one  upon another,  as it were before  a sword,  when none pursueth:  and ye shall have no power to stand  before  your enemies.  [38] And ye shall perish  among the heathen,  and the land  of your enemies  shall eat you up.  [39] And they that are left  of you shall pine away  in their iniquity  in your enemies'  lands;  and also in the iniquities  of their fathers  shall they pine away  with them. [40] If they shall confess  their iniquity,  of their fathers,  with their trespass  against me, and that also they have walked  contrary  unto me; [41] contrary  unto them, and have brought  them into the land  of their enemies;  if then  their uncircumcised  hearts  be humbled,  and they then accept  of the punishment of their iniquity:  [42] Then will I remember  my covenant  with Jacob,  and also my covenant  with Isaac,  and also my covenant  with Abraham  will I remember;  the land.  [43] The land  also shall be left  of them, and shall enjoy  her sabbaths,  while she lieth desolate  without them: and they shall accept  of the punishment of their iniquity:  because,  they despised  my judgments,  and because their soul  abhorred  my statutes.  [44] And yet  for all that,  when they be  in the land  of their enemies,  I will not cast them away,  neither will I abhor  them, to destroy them utterly,  and to break  my covenant  with them: for I am the LORD  their God.  [45] But I will for their sakes remember  the covenant  of their ancestors,  whom I brought forth  out of the land  of Egypt  in the sight  of the heathen,  that I might be their God:  I am the LORD.
