Leviticus 26:3-28
31IfH518 you walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687 so as to carryH6213 them out, 4then 2I shall giveH5414 you rainsH1653 in their seasonH6256, so that the landH776 will yieldH5414 its produceH2981 and the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 will bearH5414 their fruitH6529. 53Indeed, your threshingH1786 will lastH5381 for you untilH5381 grapeH1210 gatheringH1210, and grapeH1210 gatheringH1210 will lastH5381 untilH5381 sowingH2232 timeH2233. You will thus eatH398 your 4foodH3899 to the fullH7648 and 5liveH3427 securelyH983 in your landH776. 66I shall also grantH5414 peaceH7965 in the landH776, so that 7you may lieH7901 downH7901 with noH369 oneH369 making you trembleH2729. 8I shall also eliminateH7673 harmfulH7451 beastsH2421 from the landH776, and 9noH3808 swordH2719 will passH5674 throughH5674 your landH776. 7But you will chaseH7291 your enemiesH340 and they will fallH5307 beforeH6440 you by the swordH2719; 810fiveH2568 of you will chaseH7291 a hundredH3967, and a hundredH3967 of you will chaseH7291 tenH7233 thousandH7233, and your enemiesH340 will fallH5307 beforeH6440 you by the swordH2719. 9So I will turnH6437 towardH413 you and 11make you fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235 you, and I will 12confirmH6965 My covenantH1285 with you. 1013You will eatH398 the oldH3465 supplyH3462 and clearH3318 out the oldH3465 becauseH4480H6440 of the newH2319. 1114Moreover, I will makeH5414 My 15dwellingH4908 amongH8432 you, and My soulH5315 will not 16rejectH1602 you. 1217I will also walkH1980 amongH8432 you and be your GodH430, and you shall be My peopleH5971. 1318I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 broughtH3318 you out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 soH4480 that you would not be their slavesH5650, and 19I brokeH7665 the barsH4133 of your yokeH5923 and made you walkH1980 erectH6968.
14‘20But ifH518 you do not obeyH8085 Me and do not carryH6213 out allH3605 theseH428 commandmentsH4687, 15ifH518, instead, you 21rejectH3988 My statutesH2708, and ifH518 your soulH5315 abhorsH1602 My ordinancesH4941 so as not to carryH6213 out allH3605 My commandmentsH4687, and so 22breakH6565 My covenantH1285, 16I, in turnH637, will doH6213 thisH2088 to you: I will appointH6485 overH5921 you a 23suddenH928 terrorH928, consumptionH7829 and feverH6920 that will wasteH3615 awayH3615 the eyesH5869 and cause the 24soulH5315 to pineH1727 awayH1727; also, 25you 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 26those who hateH8130 you will ruleH7287 over you, and 27you will fleeH5127 when noH369 oneH369 is pursuingH7291 you. 18IfH518 also afterH5704 theseH428 thingsH428 you do not obeyH8085 Me, then I will punishH3256 you 28sevenH7651 timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403. 19I will also 29breakH7665 downH7665 your prideH1347 of powerH5797; I will also makeH5414 your skyH8064 like ironH1270 and your earthH776 like bronzeH5154. 2030Your 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 3132actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me and are unwillingH3808H14 to obeyH8085 Me, I will increaseH3254 the plagueH4347 on you 33sevenH7651 timesH7651 according to your sinsH2403. 2234I 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 35your roadsH1870 lieH8074 desertedH8074.
23‘36And ifH518 by theseH428 thingsH428 you are not turnedH3256 to Me, but actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me, 24then I will 37actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 you; and I, evenH1571 I, will strikeH5221 you 38sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403. 25I will also bringH935 upon you a swordH2719 which will executeH5358 39vengeanceH5359 for the covenantH1285; and when you gatherH622 together into your citiesH5892, I will sendH7971 40pestilenceH1698 amongH8432 you, so that you shall be deliveredH5414 into enemyH340 handsH3027. 2641When I breakH7665 your staffH4294 of breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 will bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they will bringH7725 backH7725 your breadH3899 42in rationedH4948 amountsH4948, so that you will 43eatH398 and not be satisfiedH7646.
27‘Yet ifH518 in spite of thisH2088 you do not obeyH8085 Me, but actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me, 28then 44I will actH1980 with wrathfulH2534 hostilityH7147 againstH5973 you, and I, evenH637 I, will punishH3256 you sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.
