Leviticus 26:14-41

14But ifH518 ye will notH3808 hearken unto meH3808, and will notH3808 doH6213 allH3605 theseH428 commandmentsH4687;

15and ifH518 ye shall rejectH3988 my statutesH2708, and ifH518 your soulH5315 abhorH1602 my judgmentsH4941, soH6213 that ye will notH1115 doH6213 allH3605 my commandmentsH4687, but breakH6565 my covenantH1285;

16I also will doH6213 this unto youH5921; I will appointH6485 terrorH928 over youH5921, evenH637 consumptionH7829 and feverH6920, that shall consumeH398 the eyesH5869, and makeH6213 the soulH5315 to pineH1727 awayH3615: and ye shall sowH2232 your seedH2233 in vain, for your enemiesH341 shall eatH398 it.

17And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 againstH6440 youH5414, and ye shall be smitten beforeH6440 your enemiesH341: they that hateH8130 youH5414 shall ruleH7287 over youH5414; and ye shall fleeH5127 when noneH369 pursueth youH5414.

18And ifH518 ye will notH3808 yet for theseH428 things hearken unto meH5921, then I will chastiseH3256 youH518 sevenH7651 timesH7651 moreH3254 for your sinsH2403.

19And I will breakH7665 the prideH1347 of your powerH5797; and I will makeH5414 your heavenH8064 as ironH1270, and your earthH776 as brass:

20and your strengthH3581 shall be spentH8552 in vain: for your landH776 shall notH3808 yieldH5414 herH5414 increaseH2981, neitherH3808 shall the treesH6086 of the landH776 yieldH5414 their fruitH6529.

21And ifH518 ye walk contraryH5921 unto meH5921, and will notH3808 hearken unto meH5921; I will bring sevenH7651 timesH7651 moreH3254 plaguesH4347 uponH5921 youH518 accordingH5921 to your sinsH2403.

22And I will sendH7971 the beastH929 of the fieldH7704 among youH7971, whichH929 shall rob youH7971 of your childrenH7921, and destroyH3772 your cattleH929, and makeH3772 youH7971 fewH4591 in number; and your waysH1870 shall becomeH8074 desolateH8074.

23And ifH518 by theseH428 things ye will notH3808 be reformed unto meH5973, but will walkH1980 contrary unto meH5973;

24then will I also walkH1980 contraryH5921 unto youH5921; and I will smiteH5221 youH5921, evenH1571 I, sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.

25And I will bringH935 a swordH2719 uponH5921 youH5414, that shall executeH5358 the vengeanceH5359 of the covenantH1285; and ye shall be gatheredH622 togetherH622 withinH8432 your citiesH5892: and I will sendH7971 the pestilenceH1698 among youH5414; and ye shall be deliveredH5414 intoH413 the handH3027 of the enemyH341.

26When I breakH7665 your staffH4294 of breadH3899, tenH6235 womenH802 shall bakeH644 your breadH3899 in one ovenH8574, and they shall deliver your breadH3899 againH7725 by weightH4948: and ye shall eatH398, and notH3808 be satisfiedH7646.

27And ifH518 ye will notH3808 for all this hearken unto meH5973, but walkH1980 contrary unto meH5973;

28then I will walkH1980 contraryH5921 unto youH5921 in furyH2534; and I also will chastiseH3256 youH5921 sevenH7651 timesH7651 for your sinsH2403.

29And ye shall eatH398 the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121, and the fleshH1320 of your daughtersH1323 shall ye eatH398.

30And I will destroyH8045 your highH1116 placesH1116, and cutH3772 downH3772 your sun-images, and castH5414 your carcases uponH5921 the carcases of your idolsH1544; and my soulH5315 shall abhorH1602 youH5414.

31And I will makeH5414 your citiesH5892 a wasteH2723, and will bringH5414 your sanctuariesH4720 unto desolationH8074, and I will notH3808 smellH7306 the savour of your sweet odours.

32And I will bring the landH776 intoH5921 desolationH8074: and your enemiesH341 which dwellH3427 therein shall be astonishedH8074 at it.

33And youH853 will I scatterH2219 among the nationsH1471, and I will draw outH1471 the swordH2719 afterH310 youH853: and your landH776 shall be a desolationH8077, and your citiesH5892 shall be a wasteH2723.

34Then shall the landH776 enjoyH7521 herH3605 sabbathsH7676, as longH3117 as it lieth desolateH8074, and ye be in your enemies’ landH776; evenH853 then shall the landH776 rest, and enjoyH7521 herH3605 sabbathsH7676.

35As longH3117 as it lieth desolateH8074 it shall have rest; evenH3808 the rest whichH834 it had notH3808 in your sabbathsH7676, when ye dweltH3427 uponH5921 it.

36And as for them that are leftH7604 of youH935, I will send a faintness intoH935 their heartH3824 in the landsH776 of their enemiesH341: and the soundH6963 of a drivenH5086 leafH5929 shall chaseH7291 them; and they shall fleeH5127, as one fleeth from the swordH2719; and they shall fallH5307 when noneH369 pursueth.

37And they shall stumbleH3782 one uponH1961 anotherH251, as it were beforeH6440 the swordH2719, when noneH369 pursueth: and ye shall have noH3808 power to standH8617 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341.

38And ye shall perishH6 among the nationsH1471, and the landH776 of your enemiesH341 shall eatH398 youH853 upH853.

39And they that are leftH7604 of youH776 shall pine awayH4743 in their iniquityH5771 in your enemies’ landsH776; and also in the iniquitiesH5771 of their fathersH1 shall they pine awayH4743 with them.

40And they shall confessH3034 their iniquityH5771, and the iniquityH5771 of their fathersH1, in their trespassH4604 whichH834 they trespassed againstH5973 meH5973, and also that becauseH834 they have walkedH1980 contrary unto meH5973,

41I also walked contrary unto them, and broughtH935 them intoH935 the landH776 of their enemiesH341: ifH176 then their uncircumcisedH6189 heartH3824 be humbledH3665, and they then acceptH7521 of the punishmentH5771 of their iniquityH5771;
