Leviticus 26:2-33

21You shall keepH8104 My SabbathsH7676 and revereH3372 My sanctuaryH4720; I am the LordH3068. 32IfH518 you walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687 so as to carryH6213 them outH6213, 4then 3I 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. 54Indeed, your threshingH1786 seasonH1786 will lastH5381 for you untilH5381 grapeH1210 gatheringH1210, and grapeH1210 gatheringH1210 will lastH5381 untilH5381 sowingH2233 timeH2233. So you will eatH398 your 5foodH3899 to the fullH7648 and 6liveH3427 securelyH983 in your landH776. 67I shall also grantH5414 peaceH7965 in the landH776, so that 8you may lieH7901 downH7901, with noH369 oneH369 to makeH2729 you afraidH2729. 9I shall also eliminateH7673 harmfulH7451 animalsH2421 from the landH776, and 10noH3808 swordH2719 will passH5674 through your landH776. 7Instead, you will chaseH7291 your enemiesH340, and they will fallH5307 beforeH6440 you by the swordH2719; 811fiveH2568 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 12makeH6509 you fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235 you, and I will 13confirmH6965 My covenantH1285 with you. 10And 14you will eatH398 the oldH3465 supplyH3462, and clearH3318 outH3318 the oldH3465 becauseH4480H6440 of the newH2319. 1115Moreover, I will makeH5414 My 16dwellingH4908 amongH8432 you, and My soulH5315 will not 17rejectH1602 you. 1218I will also walkH1980 amongH8432 you and be your GodH430, and you shall be My peopleH5971. 1319I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 broughtH3318 you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 soH4480 thatH4480 you would notH4480 be their slavesH5650, and 20I brokeH7665 your yokeH4133H5923 and made you walkH1980 erectH6968.

14‘21But ifH518 you do not obeyH8085 Me and do not carryH6213 outH6213 allH3605 theseH428 commandmentsH4687, 15ifH518, instead, you 22rejectH3988 My statutesH2708, and ifH518 your soulH5315 loathesH1602 My ordinancesH4941 so as not to carryH6213 outH6213 allH3605 My commandmentsH4687, but rather to 23breakH6565 My covenantH1285, 16I, inH637 turnH637, will doH6213 thisH2088 to you: I will 24summonH6485 a 25suddenH928 terrorH928 againstH5921 you, consumptionH7829 and feverH6920 that will makeH3615 the eyesH5869 failH3615 and the 26soulH5315 languishH1727; also, 27you will sowH2232 your seedH2233 uselesslyH7385, for your enemiesH340 will eatH398 it. 17And I will setH5414 My faceH6440 against you so that you will be defeatedH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH340; and 28those who hateH8130 you will ruleH7287 over you, and 29you will fleeH5127 when noH369 oneH369 is pursuingH7291 you. 18IfH518 also afterH5704 theseH428 thingsH428 you do not obeyH8085 Me, then I will punishH3256 you 30sevenH7651 timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403. 19I will also 31breakH7665 downH7665 your prideH1347 of powerH5797; and I will makeH5414 your skyH8064 like ironH1270 and your earthH776 like bronzeH5154. 2032Your strengthH3581 will be consumedH8552 uselesslyH7385, for your landH776 will not yieldH5414 its produceH2981 and the treesH6086 of the landH776 will not yieldH5414 their fruitH6529.

21‘Yet ifH518 you 3334showH1980 hostilityH7147 towardH5973 Me and are unwillingH3808H14 to obeyH8085 Me, I will increaseH3254 the plagueH4347 on you 35sevenH7651 timesH7651 according to your sinsH2403. 2236I will also letH7971 looseH7971 among you the animalsH2421 of the fieldH7704, which will depriveH7921 you ofH7921 your childrenH7921 and eliminateH3772 your cattleH929, and reduceH4591 your numberH4591 so that 37your roadsH1870 becomeH8074 desertedH8074.

23‘38And ifH518 by theseH428 thingsH428 you do not learnH3256 your lessonH3256 regarding Me, but you showH1980 hostilityH7147 towardH5973 Me, 24then I inH637 turnH637 will 39showH1980 hostilityH7147 towardH5973 you; and I, evenH1571 I, will strikeH5221 you 40sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403. 25I will also bringH935 upon you a swordH2719 which will executeH5358 41vengeanceH5359 for the covenantH1285; and when you gatherH622 together into your citiesH5892, I will sendH7971 a 42plagueH1698 amongH8432 you, so that you will be handedH3027H5414 overH5414 to the enemyH340. 2643When I breakH7665 your staffH4294 of breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 will bakeH644 your breadH3899 in oneH259 ovenH8574, and they will bringH7725 backH7725 your breadH3899 44in rationedH4948 amountsH4948, so that you will 45eatH398 and not beH7646 satisfiedH7646.

27‘Yet ifH518 in spite of thisH2088 you do not obeyH8085 Me, but actH1980 with hostilityH7147 againstH5973 Me, 28then 46I will actH1980 with wrathfulH2534 hostilityH7147 againstH5973 you, and I for My partH637 will punishH3256 you sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403. 29Further, 47you will eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121, and you will eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your daughtersH1323. 30I then 48will destroyH8045 your highH1116 placesH1116, and cutH3772 downH3772 your 49incenseH2553 altarsH2553, and 50pileH5414 your 51remainsH6297 on the 52remainsH6297 of your idolsH1544, for My soulH5315 will loatheH1602 you. 31I will turnH5414 your citiesH5892 into 53ruinsH2723 as well and makeH8074 your 54sanctuariesH4720 desolateH8074, and I will not 55smellH7381 your soothingH5207 aromasH7381. 32And I will makeH8074 56the landH776 desolateH8074 57so that your enemiesH340 who settleH3427 in it will beH8074 appalledH8074 at it. 33You, however, I 58will scatterH2219 among the nationsH1471, and I will drawH7385 outH7385 a swordH2719 afterH310 you, as your landH776 becomesH1961 desolateH8077 and your citiesH5892 becomeH1961 ruinsH2723.
