Lev.26
[1] Ye shall
make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither
shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I
am the LORD your God.
[14] But if
ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
[11] If they say, Come with us,
( don't go!!!! )
[2] Ye shall keep my sabbaths,
and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
[3] If
ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and
do them;
[4] Then I will give you rain
in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the
field shall yield their fruit.
[5] And your threshing shall
reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and
ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
[6] And I will give peace in
the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will
rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
[7] And ye shall chase your
enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
[8] And five of you shall chase
an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your
enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
[9] For I will have respect
unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant
with you.
[10] And ye shall eat old store,
and bring forth the old because of the new.
[11] And
I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor
you.
[12]
And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and
ye shall be my people.
[13]
I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that
ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and
made you go upright.
[15] And if ye shall despise
my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all
my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:
[16] I also will do this unto
you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague,
that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your
seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
[17] And I will set my face
against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you
shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
[18] And if ye will not yet
for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your
sins.
[19] And I will break the pride
of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
[20] And your strength shall
be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall
the trees of the land yield their fruits.
[21] And
if ye walk contrary unto me, and will
not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according
to your sins.
[22] I will also send wild beasts
among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and
make you few in number; and your highways shall be desolate.
[23] And if ye will not be reformed
by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me;
[24]
Then will I also walk contrary unto you,
and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
[25] And I will bring a sword
upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered
together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall
be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
[26] And when I have broken
the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they
shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be
satisfied.
[27] And if ye will not for
all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
[28]
Then I will walk contrary unto you
also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for
your sins.
[29] And ye shall eat the flesh
of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
[30] And I will destroy your
high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases
of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
[31] And I will make your cities
waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the
savour of your sweet odours.
[32] And I will bring the land
into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at
it.
[33] And I will scatter you
among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall
be desolate, and your cities waste.
[34] Then shall the land enjoy
her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies' land;
even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths.
[35] As long as it lieth desolate
it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon
it.
[36] And upon them that are
left alive of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of
their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall
flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.
[37] And they shall fall one
upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have
no power to stand before your enemies.
[38] And ye shall perish among
the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
[39] And they that are left
of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in
the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.
[40] If they shall confess their
iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they
trespassed against me, and that also they have walked
contrary unto me;
[41]
And that I also have walked contrary unto them
, and have brought them into the land of their enemies;
if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the
punishment of their iniquity:
[42] Then will I remember my
covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant
with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
[43] The land also shall be
left of them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without
them: and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity: because, even
because they despised my judgments, and because their soul abhorred my statutes.
[44] And yet for all that, when
they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will
I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them:
for I am the LORD their God.
[45] But
I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors
, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in
the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.
[46] These are the statutes
and judgments and laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of
Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
