Lev.|26:1|-|You shall not make for yourselves |1a|idols, nor shall you raise up for yourselves a graven image or a pillar, nor shall you place a stone figure in your land to bow down to it; for I am Jehovah your God.
Lev.|26:2|-|You shall keep My |1a|Sabbaths and reverence My |2|sanctuary; I am Jehovah.
Lev.|26:3|-|If you |1|walk in My statutes and keep My commandments and do them,
Lev.|26:4|-|Then I will give you your |1a|rains in their season, and the land will yield its produce, and the trees of the field will yield their fruit.
Lev.|26:5|-|Indeed your threshing will overtake the vintage, and the vintage will overtake the sowing time. Thus you will eat your bread unto satisfaction and dwell securely in your land.
Lev.|26:6|-|And I will give you peace in the land, so that you will lie down and no one will make you afraid; and I will cause wild beasts to cease out of the land, and no sword will pass through your land.
Lev.|26:7|-|And you will chase your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you.
Lev.|26:8|-|And five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will |a|chase ten thousand; and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.
Lev.|26:9|-|And I will turn My face toward you and make you fruitful and |a|multiply you, and I will establish My |b|covenant with you.
Lev.|26:10|-|And you will eat the old supply long stored and will have to clear out the old because of the new.
Lev.|26:11|-|And I will set My |a|tabernacle among you; and My soul will not abhor you.
Lev.|26:12|-|And I will walk |a|among you and be your |b|God, and you will be My people.
Lev.|26:13|-|I am Jehovah your God, who brought you |a|out of the land of Egypt so that you should not be their slaves; and I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk upright.
Lev.|26:14|-||a|But if you will not |1|listen to Me and will not do all these commandments,
Lev.|26:15|-|And if you reject My statutes, and if your soul abhors My ordinances so that you will not do all My commandments, so as to break My |a|covenant;
Lev.|26:16|-|I also will do this to you: I will appoint |1|sudden terror over you, even consumption and fever, that will cause the eyes to fail and make the soul to pine away; and you will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it.
Lev.|26:17|-|And I will set My face against you, and you will be struck down before your enemies; and those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when no one pursues you.
Lev.|26:18|-|And if after these things you will not listen to Me, then I will |1|chastise you |a|seven times more for your sins.
Lev.|26:19|-|And I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your sky like iron and your land like bronze,
Lev.|26:20|-|And your strength will be spent in vain, for your land will |a|not yield its produce, nor will the trees of the land yield their fruit.
Lev.|26:21|-|And if you walk contrary to Me and will not listen to Me, I will bring |a|seven times more |1|plagues upon you according to your sins.
Lev.|26:22|-|And I will send |1|wild animals among you, which will bereave you of your children and destroy your cattle and make you few in number, so that your roads will be deserted.
Lev.|26:23|-|And if by these things you will not be corrected by Me, but walk contrary to Me,
Lev.|26:24|-|Then I also will walk contrary to you; and I will |1|strike you, I Myself, |a|seven times for your sins.
Lev.|26:25|-|And I will bring a |1|sword upon you that will execute the vengeance of the covenant. And when you gather together within your cities, I will send |1|pestilence among you, and you will be |1|delivered into the hand of the enemy.
Lev.|26:26|-|When I |1|cut off your supply of bread, ten women will bake your bread in one oven; and they will return your bread |2|by |a|weight, and you will eat and not be satisfied.
Lev.|26:27|-|And if in spite of this you will not listen to Me, but walk contrary to Me,
Lev.|26:28|-|Then I will walk contrary to you in wrath; and I will |1|chastise you, I Myself, |a|seven times for your sins.
Lev.|26:29|-|And you will |1|eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters you will eat.
Lev.|26:30|-|And I will destroy your |a|high places and cut down your altars to the sun and heap up your |1|dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols, and My soul will abhor you.
Lev.|26:31|-|And I will make your |a|cities a |1|waste and will make your |b|holy places desolate, and I will not smell the savor of your satisfying fragrances.
Lev.|26:32|-|And I will make the land |1a|desolate, so that your enemies who dwell in it will be astonished at it.
Lev.|26:33|-|You however I will |1a|scatter among the nations, and I will unsheathe the sword after you; and your land will become a desolation, and your cities will become a waste.
Lev.|26:34|-|Then the land will enjoy its |1a|Sabbaths during all the days of desolation while you are in your enemies’ land; then the land will rest and enjoy its Sabbaths.
Lev.|26:35|-|During all the days of desolation it will have the rest, which it did not have on your Sabbaths when you were dwelling upon it.
Lev.|26:36|-|And as for those who remain among you, I will send faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a driven leaf will |1|put them to flight; and they will flee as one flees from the sword; and they will fall though |a|no one pursues.
Lev.|26:37|-|And they will stumble over one another, as if fleeing before the sword, though no one pursues; and you will not be able to stand before your enemies.
Lev.|26:38|-|And you will perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies will consume you.
Lev.|26:39|-|And those who are remaining among you will rot away because of their iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and also because of the iniquities of their fathers they will rot away with them.
Lev.|26:40|-|But if they |1a|confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against Me, and also that they walked contrary to Me,
Lev.|26:41|-|So that I also walked contrary to them and brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their |a|uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept the punishment of their iniquity;
Lev.|26:42|-|Then I will |1a|remember My covenant with Jacob, and I will remember also My covenant with Isaac and also My covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.
Lev.|26:43|-|For the land will be abandoned by them and will enjoy its |a|Sabbaths while it is desolate without them. And they will accept the punishment of their iniquity because, even because, they rejected My ordinances, and their soul abhorred My statutes.
Lev.|26:44|-|And yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will |a|not |1|reject them, nor will I abhor them so as to destroy them utterly and to break My covenant with them; for I am Jehovah their God.
Lev.|26:45|-|But for their sakes I will |a|remember the covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations so that I might be their God; I am Jehovah.
Lev.|26:46|-|These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which Jehovah made between Himself and the children of Israel at Mount Sinai through Moses.
