Leviticus 26:11-30
111Moreover, I will makeH5414 My 2dwellingH4908 amongH8432 you, and My soulH5315 will not 3rejectH1602 you. 124I will also walkH1980 amongH8432 you and be your GodH430, and you shall be My peopleH5971. 135I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 broughtH3318 you out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 soH4480 that you would not be their slavesH5650, and 6I brokeH7665 the barsH4133 of your yokeH5923 and made you walkH1980 erectH6968.
14‘7But ifH518 you do not obeyH8085 Me and do not carryH6213 out allH3605 theseH428 commandmentsH4687, 15ifH518, instead, you 8rejectH3988 My statutesH2708, and ifH518 your soulH5315 abhorsH1602 My ordinancesH4941 so as not to carryH6213 out allH3605 My commandmentsH4687, and so 9breakH6565 My covenantH1285, 16I, in turnH637, will doH6213 thisH2088 to you: I will appointH6485 overH5921 you a 10suddenH928 terrorH928, consumptionH7829 and feverH6920 that will wasteH3615 awayH3615 the eyesH5869 and cause the 11soulH5315 to pineH1727 awayH1727; also, 12you will sowH2232 your seedH2233 uselesslyH7385, for your enemiesH340 will eatH398 it up. 17I will setH5414 My faceH6440 against you so that you will be struckH5062 downH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH340; and 13those who hateH8130 you will ruleH7287 over you, and 14you will fleeH5127 when noH369 oneH369 is pursuingH7291 you. 18IfH518 also afterH5704 theseH428 thingsH428 you do not obeyH8085 Me, then I will punishH3256 you 15sevenH7651 timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403. 19I will also 16breakH7665 downH7665 your prideH1347 of powerH5797; I will also makeH5414 your skyH8064 like ironH1270 and your earthH776 like bronzeH5154. 2017Your strengthH3581 will be spentH8552 uselesslyH7385, for your landH776 will not yieldH5414 its produceH2981 and the treesH6086 of the landH776 will not yieldH5414 their fruitH6529.
21‘IfH518 then, you 1819actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me and are unwillingH3808H14 to obeyH8085 Me, I will increaseH3254 the plagueH4347 on you 20sevenH7651 timesH7651 according to your sinsH2403. 2221I will letH7971 looseH7971 among you the beastsH2421 of the fieldH7704, which will bereaveH7921 you of your childrenH7921 and destroyH3772 your cattleH929 and reduceH4591 your number so that 22your roadsH1870 lieH8074 desertedH8074.
23‘23And ifH518 by theseH428 thingsH428 you are not turnedH3256 to Me, but actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me, 24then I will 24actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 you; and I, evenH1571 I, will strikeH5221 you 25sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403. 25I will also bringH935 upon you a swordH2719 which will executeH5358 26vengeanceH5359 for the covenantH1285; and when you gatherH622 together into your citiesH5892, I will sendH7971 27pestilenceH1698 amongH8432 you, so that you shall be deliveredH5414 into enemyH340 handsH3027. 2628When I breakH7665 your staffH4294 of breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 will bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they will bringH7725 backH7725 your breadH3899 29in rationedH4948 amountsH4948, so that you will 30eatH398 and not be satisfiedH7646.
27‘Yet ifH518 in spite of thisH2088 you do not obeyH8085 Me, but actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me, 28then 31I will actH1980 with wrathfulH2534 hostilityH7147 againstH5973 you, and I, evenH637 I, will punishH3256 you sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403. 29Further, 32you will eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of your daughtersH1323 you will eatH398. 30I then 33will destroyH8045 your highH1116 placesH1116, and cutH3772 downH3772 your 34incenseH2553 altarsH2553, and heapH5414 your 35remainsH6297 on the 36remainsH6297 of your idolsH1544, for My soulH5315 shall abhorH1602 you.
