1ye shall not make to you an idol, and a graven image (or nor a carved image), neither ye shall raise up titles, that is, altars for idolatry, neither ye shall set (up) a noble stone in your land, that ye worship it; for I am your Lord God.
2Keep ye my sabbaths, and dread ye at my saintuary (or and revere my sanctuary); I am the Lord.
3If ye go in my behests, and keep my commandments, and do those,
4I shall give to you rain in their times, and the earth shall bring forth his fruit, and the trees shall be filled with apples; (I shall give you rain at the proper time, and the land shall bring forth its harvest, and the trees shall be filled with fruit;)
5the threshing of ripe corns shall take (you until) the vintage, and the vintage shall occupy (you until) the seed time, and ye shall eat your bread in fullness, and ye shall dwell in your land without dread (or and ye shall live in your land without any fear).
6I shall give peace in your coasts; ye shall sleep, and none shall be that shall make you afeared; I shall do away evil beasts from you, and a sword shall not pass by your terms.
7Ye shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you;
8five of your men shall pursue an hundred aliens, and an hundred of you shall pursue ten thousand; your enemies shall fall by sword in your sight (or your enemies shall fall by the sword before you).
9I shall behold you, and I shall make you to increase; ye shall be multiplied; and I shall make steadfast my covenant with you;
10ye shall eat the eldest of (the) eld things, and (then) ye shall cast away the eld things, when the new things shall come above (or when the new things shall come forth);
11I shall set my tabernacle in the midst of you, and my soul shall not cast you away;
12I shall go among you, and I shall be your God, and ye shall be a people to me (or and ye shall be my people).
13I am your Lord God, that led you out of the land of Egyptians, that ye should not serve them (any more), and I have broken the chains off your nolls, that ye should go upright. (I am the Lord your God, who led you out of the land of the Egyptians, so that ye would no longer serve them, and I have broken the chains from off your necks, so that ye could walk upright.)
14That if ye hear not me, neither do all my behests, (But if ye will not listen to me, nor do all my commands,)
15and if ye forsake my laws, and despise my dooms, that ye do not those things that be ordained of me, and that ye bring follily my covenant to nought, (and if ye forsake my laws, and despise my judgements, so that ye do not do those things that be ordained by me, but ye foolishly break my covenant,)
16also I shall do these things to you; I shall visit you swiftly in neediness, and in burning, which shall torment your eyes, and waste your lives; in vain ye shall sow seed, that shall be devoured of enemies; (then I shall do these things to you; I shall swiftly visit you with want, or with need, and with burning, which shall torment your eyes, and shall waste your lives; ye shall sow your seed in vain, for it shall be devoured by your enemies;)
17I shall set my face against you, and ye shall fall before your enemies, and ye shall be subjects to them that hate you (or and ye shall be made subject to them who hate you); (and) ye shall flee, while no man pursueth you.
18But if neither so ye obey to me (or And if ye shall still not obey me), I shall increase your chastising sevenfold for your sins;
19and I shall all-break the pride of your hardness, and I shall give to you heaven above as iron, and the earth as brass; (and I shall break in pieces all of your hard-headed pride; and I shall make the heavens above you like iron, and the earth beneath you like bronze;)
20your travail shall be wasted in vain, neither the earth shall bring forth fruit, neither the trees shall give apples. (all your labour shall be in vain, the land shall not bring forth any harvest, nor shall the trees give forth any fruit.)
21If ye go contrary to me, neither will hear me (or and will not listen to me), I shall increase your wounds, either vengeances, till into sevenfold for your sins;
22I shall send out into you cruel beasts of the field (or I shall send cruel wild beasts among you), that shall waste you, and your beasts, and shall bring all things to fewness, and your (by)ways shall be forsaken.
23That if neither so ye will receive doctrine, either chastising, but go contrary to me, (And if ye will still not receive chastising, or discipline, but continue to go contrary to me,)
24also I shall go adversary against you, and I shall smite you seven times for your sins; (then I shall also be your adversary or then I shall also go contrary to you, and I shall strike you seven times for your sins;)
25and I shall bring in on you the sword, venger of my bond of peace (or the avenger of my covenant); and when ye flee into your cities, I shall send pestilence into the midst of you, and ye shall be betaken in(to) the hands of your enemies,
26after that I have broken the staff of your bread, so that ten women shall bake their loaves in one oven, and (they shall) yield, or deliver, those loaves at weight; and ye shall eat (them), and (yet) ye shall not be fulfilled.
27But if neither by these things ye will hear me, but go against me, (And if, in spite of all these things, ye still will not listen to me, but continue to go against me,)
28and I shall go against you in contrary strong vengeance, and I shall chastise you by seven vengeances for your sins, (then I also shall be contrary, and go against you with strong vengeance, and I shall chastise you seven times for your sins,)
29so that ye (shall) eat the flesh of your sons, and of your daughters;
30I shall destroy your high things, and I shall break your simulacra, (or I shall destroy your high places, or your hill shrines, and I shall break your idols); ye shall fall betwixt the fallings of your idols, and my soul shall have you abominable,
31in so much that I shall turn your cities into wilderness, and make your saintuaries forsaken, neither I shall receive more the sweetest odour; (in so much that I shall turn your cities into wilderness, and make your sanctuaries forsaken, nor shall I receive from you any more the sweetest aroma;)
