Leviticus 26:27-45

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;

42then will I rememberH2142 my covenantH1285 with JacobH3290; and also my covenantH1285 with IsaacH3327, and also my covenantH1285 with AbrahamH85 will I rememberH2142; and I will rememberH2142 the landH776.

43The landH776 also shall be leftH5800 of them, and shall enjoyH7521 herH1602 sabbathsH7676, whileH5315 she lieth desolateH8074 without them; and they shall acceptH7521 of the punishmentH5771 of their iniquityH5771: becauseH3282, evenH853 becauseH3282 they rejectedH5800 my judgmentsH4941, and their soulH5315 abhorredH1602 my statutesH2708.

44And yet for allH3615 that, when they be in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, I will notH3808 rejectH3988 them, neitherH3808 will I abhorH1602 them, to destroyH3615 them utterly, and to breakH6565 my covenantH1285 with them: for I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430:

45but I will for their sakes rememberH2142 the covenantH1285 of their ancestorsH7223, whomH834 I broughtH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH1471, that I might be their GodH430: I am the LORDH3068.
