Leviticus 26:2-32 in English

² Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Jehovah.

³ If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;

⁴ then I will give your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its 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 cause evil beasts to cease 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 a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

⁹ And I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you.

¹⁰ And ye shall eat old store long kept, and ye shall 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 Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.

¹⁴ But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;

¹⁵ and if ye shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant;

¹⁶ I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; 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 smitten before your enemies: they that hate you shall rule over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

¹⁸ And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto me, then I will chastise 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 its increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.

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 And I will send the beast of the field among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your ways shall become desolate.

²³ And if by these things ye will not be reformed unto me, but will walk contrary unto me;

²⁴ then will I also walk contrary unto you; and I will smite you, even I, seven times for your sins.

²⁵ And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall execute the vengeance of the covenant; and ye shall be gathered together within your cities: and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

²⁶ When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver 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 in wrath; and I also 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 sun-images, and cast your dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.

³¹ And I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors.

³² And I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein shall be astonished at it.

² Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.

³ If ye will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, and do them,

⁴ then will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

⁵ And your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full; and ye shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through your land.

¹³ I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, where ye were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.

¹⁴ But if ye will not hearken to me, nor obey these my ordinances,

¹⁵ but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgments, so that ye should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,

¹⁶ then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and disease that consumes your life; and ye shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.

¹⁷ And I will set my face against you, and ye shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and ye shall flee, no one pursuing you.

¹⁸ And if ye still refuse to hearken to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times for your sins.

¹⁹ And I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were brass.

²⁰ And your strength shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its fruit.

²¹ And if after this ye should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to your sins.

²² And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.

²³ And if hereupon ye are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,

²⁴ I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will smite you seven times for your sins.

²⁵ And I will bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of my covenant, and ye shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and ye shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

³² And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it.

² Honor the Sabbath days and revere my Sacred Tent, because I, Yahweh, live there.

³ If you carefully obey all my commands DOU,

⁴ I will send rain for you at the proper/right times, in order that crops will grow on your land and there will be plenty of fruit on your trees.

⁵ You will continue harvesting and threshing grain until it is time to harvest grapes, and you will continue to harvest grapes until it is time to start planting things in the following year. And you will have all the food that you want to eat, and you will live safely in your land.

⁶ If you obey all my laws, there will be peace in your country, and when you lie down to sleep, nothing will cause you to be afraid. I will get rid of the dangerous animals in your country, and there will no wars MTY in your country.

⁷ You will pursue your enemies and kill them with your swords:

⁸ Five of you will pursue a hundred of them, and a hundred of you will pursue a thousand of them and kill them with your swords.

⁹ If you obey all my laws, I will bless you and cause you to have many children DOU. And I will do what I said that I would do in the agreement that I made with you.

¹⁰ When you are still eating food from the harvest from the previous year, it will be necessary for you to throw away some of it to make space for the new harvest.

¹¹ I will live among you in my Sacred Tent, and I will never reject you.

¹² I will walk among you and continue to be your God, and you will continue to be my people.

¹³ I am Yahweh your God, the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you would no longer be slaves of the people of Egypt. When you were there, you were treated as though you were animals that worked for the people of Egypt, but MET I broke the bars of the ◄yokes/frames that were put around your necks► and enabled you to walk with your heads up.”

¹⁴ “But if you will not heed me and obey all these commands,

¹⁵ and if you reject DOU my decrees and laws, and do not do DOU what I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you,

¹⁶ these are the things that I will do to you: I will suddenly cause there to be disasters that will ruin you. You will have diseases that cannot be cured, and fevers that will cause you to become blind and will slowly kill you. It will be useless for you to plant seeds, because your enemies will eat the crops that grow.

¹⁷ I will reject/abandon you IDM, with the result that you will be defeated by your enemies. Then those who hate you will rule you, and you will be so terrified that you will run away even when no one is pursuing you.

¹⁸ If you still will not heed me after all those things happen to you, I will continue to punish you again and again for the sins that you have committed.

¹⁹ I will cause you to no longer be stubborn and proud; I will cause no rain to fall; it will be as though MET the sky is made of iron; and the ground will be as hard as brass MET.

²⁰ You will uselessly work very hard to plant seeds, because crops will not grow in the hard soil in your fields, and fruit will not grow on your trees.

²¹ If you continue to oppose me and refuse to heed me, I will cause you to experience disasters again and again, like you deserve to experience because of your sins.

²² I will send wild animals to attack you, and they will kill your little children and destroy your cattle. There will be very few of you who will remain alive, with the result that there will be very few HYP people walking on the roads in your country.

²³ When you experience those things that I do to punish you, if you still do not pay attention to me, and if you continue to oppose me,

²⁴ I myself will oppose you, and I will punish you for your sins again and again.

²⁵ I will send foreign armies MTY to punish you for not doing the things that I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you. If you try to escape from your enemies by shutting yourselves in your cities that have walls around them, I will cause you to experience plagues, and I will allow your enemies to capture IDM you.

²⁶ When I cut off your food supply, there will be very little flour with which to make bread. As a result, ten woman will be able to bake all their bread in only one oven. When the bread is baked, each woman will divide it among the members of her family, but there will be very little for each one, and when they have eaten all of it, they will still be hungry.

²⁷ After all those things happen, if you still do not heed me, if you still oppose me,

²⁸ I will be very angry with you, and I will oppose you, and I myself will punish you for your sins again and again.

²⁹ You will be extremely hungry, with the result that you will kill your sons and daughters and eat their flesh.

³⁰ I will cause the shrines where you worship idols on hilltops to be destroyed. I will smash the altars where you burn incense to worship your gods, and I will cause your corpses to be piled on the lifeless statues of your gods. And I will detest you.

³¹ I will cause your cities to become heaps of ruins, and I will cause the buildings that are dedicated to the worship of your gods to be smashed. And I will not be pleased at all with the aroma of your offerings that are burned on the altar.

³² I will completely ruin your country, with the result that even your enemies who capture it will be shocked/appalled when they see it.

² You° shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.

³ If you° will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, and do them,

⁴ then will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

⁵ And your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and you° shall eat your bread to the full; and you° shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through your land.

⁶ And I will give peace in your land, and you° shall sleep, and none shall make you afraid; and I will destroy the evil beasts out of your land,

⁷ and you° shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you with slaughter.

⁸ And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase tens of thousands; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

⁹ And I will look upon you, and increase you, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.

¹⁰ And you° shall eat that which is old and very old, and bring forth the old to make way for the new.

¹¹ And I will set my tabernacle amongst you, and my soul shall not abhor you;

¹² and I will walk amongst you, and be your God, and you° shall be my people.

¹³ I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, where you° were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.

¹⁴ But if you° will not listen to me, nor obey these my ordinances,

¹⁵ but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgements, so that you° should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,

¹⁶ then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and disease that consumes your life; and you° shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.

¹⁷ And I will set my face against you, and you° shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and you° shall flee, no one pursuing you.

¹⁸ And if you° still refuse to listen to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times for your sins.

¹⁹ And I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were brass.

²⁰ And your strength shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its fruit.

²¹ And if after this you° should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to your sins.

²² And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.

²³ And if hereupon you° are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,

¹⁴ But if ye hearken not unto me, and do not all these commandments,

¹⁵ and if ye shall despise my statutes, and if your soul shall abhor mine ordinances, so that ye do not all my commandments, that ye break my covenant,

¹⁶ I also will do this unto you — I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and fever, which shall cause the eyes to fail, and the soul to waste away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

¹⁷ And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed before your enemies; they that hate you shall have dominion over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.

¹⁸ And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you sevenfold more for your sins,

¹⁹ and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as bronze,

²⁰ and your strength shall be spent in vain, and your land shall not yield its produce; and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.

²¹ And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you according to your sins.

²² And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.

²³ And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but walk contrary unto me,

²⁴ then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will smite you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.

²⁵ And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered together into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

²⁶ When I break the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and shall deliver you the bread again by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.

²⁷ And if for this ye hearken not to 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-fold 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 lay waste your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.

³¹ And I will lay waste your cities and desolate your sanctuaries; and I will not smell your sweet odours.

³² And I will bring the land into desolation; that your enemies who dwell there in may be astonished at it.

² Keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.

³ If you walk in my precepts, and keep my commandments, and do them, I will give you rein in due seasons.

⁴ And the ground shall bring forth its increase, and the trees shall be filled with fruit.

⁵ The threshing of your harvest shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land without fear.

⁶ I will give peace in your coasts: you shall sleep, and there shall be none to make you afraid. I will take away evil beasts: and the sword shall not pass through your quarters.

⁷ You shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you.

⁸ Five of yours shall pursue a hundred others, and a hundred of you ten thousand: your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

⁹ I will look on you, and make you increase: you shell be multiplied, and I will establish my covenant with you.

¹⁰ You shall eat the oldest of the old store, and, new coming on, you shall cast away the old.

¹¹ I will set my tabernacle in the midst of you, and my soul shall not cast you off.

¹² I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people.

¹³ I am the Lord your God: who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that you should not serve them, and who have broken the chains of your necks, that you might go upright.

¹⁴ But if you will not hear me, nor do all my commandments,

¹⁵ If you despise my laws, and contemn my judgments so as not to do those things which are appointed by me, and to make void my covenant:

¹⁶ I also will do these things to you: I will quickly visit you with poverty, and burning heat, which shall waste your eyes, and consume your lives. You shall sow your seed in vain, which shall be devoured by your enemies.

¹⁷ I will set my face against you, and you shall fall down before your enemies, and shall be made subject to them that hate you, you shall flee when no man pursueth you.

¹⁸ But if you will not yet for all this obey me: I will chastise you seven times more for your sins,

¹⁹ And I will break the pride of your stubbornness, and I will make to you the heaven above as iron, and the earth as brass:

²⁰ Your labour shall be spent in vain, the ground shall not bring forth her increase, nor the trees yield their fruit.

²¹ If you walk contrary to me, and will not hearken to me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you for your sins:

²² And I will send in upon you the beasts of the held, to destroy you and your cattle, and make you few in number, and that your highways may be desolate.

²³ And if even so you will not amend, but will walk contrary to me:

²⁴ I also will walk contrary to you, and will strike you seven times for your sins.

²⁵ And I will bring in upon you the sword that shall avenge my covenant. And when you shall flee into the cities, I will send the pestilence in the midst of you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies,

²⁶ After I shall have broken the staff of your bread: so that ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and give it out by weight: and you shall eat, and shall not be filled.

²⁷ But if you will not for all this hearken to me, but will walk against me:

²⁸ I will also go against you with opposite fury, and I will chastise you with seven plagues for your sins,

²⁹ So that you shall eat the flesh of your sons and of your daughters.

³⁰ I will destroy your high places, and break your idols. You shall fall among the ruins of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.

³¹ Insomuch that I will bring your cities to be a wilderness, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and will receive no more your sweet odours.

³² And I will destroy your land, and your enemies shall be astonished at it, when they shall be the inhabitants thereof.

² Keep my Sabbaths and show respect for my sanctuary. I am the Lord.

³ If you follow my rules and keep my regulations,

⁴ I will make sure it rains at the right time so that the ground will grow good crops and the fruit trees will be productive.

⁵ Your time of threshing will last right up to the grape harvest, and the grape harvest until the time you have to sow again. You will have more than enough to eat and you will live in safety in your land.

⁶ I will make sure your land is at peace. You will be able to sleep without being afraid of anything. I will get rid of dangerous animals from the land, and you will not suffer from any violent enemy attacks.

⁷ You will chase your enemies, and kill them with the sword.

⁸ Five of you will kill one hundred, and one hundred of you will kill ten thousand. You will destroy your enemies.

⁹ I will come to help you, so you will reproduce and increase in numbers, and I will confirm my agreement with you.

¹⁰ You'll still be eating your old stock of grain when you need to get rid of it so you can store the new grain.

¹¹ I will come and live with you—I certainly won't reject you.

¹² I shall always be right there with you. I will be your God, and you will be my people.

¹³ I am the Lord your God, who led you out of Egypt so you wouldn't have to be slaves to the Egyptians any longer. I smashed the yoke that kept you bent down and helped you to stand up straight.

¹⁴ But if you don't pay attention to me and do what I tell you;

¹⁵ if you reject my laws, hate my regulations, and refuse to follow my commandments, and consequently break my agreement,

¹⁶ then this is what I am going to do to you: I will make you panic, and suffer from diseases like tuberculosis and fever that make you blind and drain your life away. It will be pointless for you to sow seed in your fields because your enemies will eat the harvest.

¹⁷ I will turn against you, and you'll be defeated by your enemies. People who hate you will rule over you, and you'll run away even when there's no one chasing you!

¹⁸ If after all this you still refuse to obey me, I will move to punishing you seven times over for your sins.

¹⁹ I will break your self-reliant strength you're so proud of, and make your sky hard as iron and your land hard as bronze.

²⁰ Your strength will be completely wasted because your land won't produce crops, and your trees won't produce fruit.

²¹ If you go on opposing me and refusing to do what I tell you, I will make your punishments seven times worse, based on your sins.

²² I will send wild animals to kill your children, wipe out your livestock, and make you so few in number that there won't be anyone on your roads.

²³ However, if in spite of all this correction you still don't change but go on opposing me,

²⁴ then I will take action against you. I will punish you seven times over for your sins.

²⁵ I will send enemies with swords to attack you in retaliation for breaking the agreement. Even though you retreat into your towns for defense, I will plague you with disease, and you will be handed over to your enemies.

²⁶ I will send a famine so bread is in short supply. One oven will serve the needs of ten women baking bread. It will be distributed by weight so that you'll eat but won't have enough.

²⁷ However, if in spite of all this you don't obey me, but go on opposing me,

²⁸ then I will take action against you in a rage of fury, and I will punish you myself seven times over for your sins.

²⁹ You will eat the bodies of your own sons and daughters.

³⁰ I will destroy your high places of worship, smash your altars of incense, and pile up your dead bodies on what remains of your idols, which also have no life at all. I will really despise you.

³¹ I will demolish your towns and destroy your pagan sanctuaries, and I will refuse to accept your sacrifices.

³² I will devastate your land myself, so that your enemies who come and live in it will be horrified at what has happened.

² Ye shall keepe my Sabbaths, and reuerence my Sanctuarie: I am the Lord.

³ If ye walke in mine ordinances, and keepe my commandements, and doe them,

⁴ I will then sende you raine in due season, and the land shall yelde her increase, and the trees of the fielde shall giue her fruite.

⁵ And your threshing shall reache vnto the vintage, and the vintage shall reache vnto sowing time, and you shall eate your bread in plenteousnesse, and dwell in your land safely.

⁶ And I will sende peace in the land, and ye shall sleepe and none shall make you afraid: also I will rid euill beastes out of the lande, and the sworde shall not go through your lande.

⁷ Also ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you vpon the sworde.

⁸ And fiue of you shall chase an hundreth, and an hundreth of you shall put ten thousande to flight, and your enemies shall fall before you vpon the sworde.

⁹ For I will haue respect vnto you, and make you encrease, and multiplie you, and establish my couenant with you.

¹⁰ Ye shall eate also olde store, and cary out olde because of the newe.

¹¹ And I will set my Tabernacle among you, and my soule shall not lothe you.

¹² Also I will walke among you, and I wil be your God, and ye shalbe my people.

¹³ I am the Lord your God which haue brought you out of the lande of Egypt, that yee should not be their bondmen, and I haue broken ye bonds of your yoke, and made you goe vpright.

¹⁴ But if ye will not obey me, nor do all these commandements,

¹⁵ And if ye shall despise mine ordinances, either if your soule abhorre my lawes, so that yee will not do all my commandements, but breake my couenant,

¹⁶ Then wil I also do this vnto you, I wil appoint ouer you fearefulnes, a consumption, and the burning ague to consume the eyes, and make the heart heauie, and you shall sowe your seede in vaine: for your enemies shall eate it:

¹⁷ And I will set my face against you, and ye shall fal before your enemies, and they that hate you, shall raigne ouer you, and yee shall flee when none pursueth you.

¹⁸ And if ye wil not for these things obey me, then wil I punish you seuen times more, according to your sinnes,

¹⁹ And I wil breake the pride of your power, and I will make your heauen as yron, and your earth as brasse:

²⁰ And your strength shalbe spent in vaine: neither shall your lande giue her increase, neither shall the trees of the land giue their fruite.

²¹ And if ye walke stubburnly against me, and will not obey mee, I will then bring seuen times more plagues vpon you, according to your sinnes.

²² I will also sende wilde beastes vpon you, which shall spoyle you, and destroy your cattell, and make you fewe in number: so your hye waies shalbe desolate.

²³ Yet if by these ye will not be reformed by me, but walke stubburnly against me,

²⁴ Then wil I also walke stubburnly against you, and I will smite you yet seuen times for your sinnes:

⁴ then I have given your rains in their season, and the land hath given her produce, and the tree of the field doth give its fruit;

⁵ and reached to you hath the threshing, the gathering, and the gathering doth reach the sowing -time; and ye have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land.

⁶ 'And I have given peace in the land, and ye have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, and the sword doth not pass over into your land.

⁷ 'And ye have pursued your enemies, and they have fallen before you by the sword;

⁸ and five of you have pursued a hundred, and a hundred of you do pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword.

⁹ 'And I have turned unto you, and have made you fruitful, and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;

¹⁰ and ye have eaten old store, and the old because of the new ye bring out.

¹¹ 'And I have given My tabernacle in your midst, and My soul doth not loathe you;

¹² and I have walked habitually in your midst, and have become your God, and ye — ye are become My people;

¹³ I am Jehovah your God, who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, from being their servants; and I break the bars of your yoke, and cause you to go erect.

¹⁴ 'And if ye do not hearken to Me, and do not all these commands;

¹⁵ and if at My statutes ye kick, and if My judgments your soul loathe, so as not to do all My commands — to your breaking My covenant —

¹⁶ I also do this to you, and I have appointed over you trouble, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and your seed in vain ye have sowed, and your enemies have eaten it;

¹⁷ and I have set My face against you, and ye have been smitten before your enemies; and those hating you have ruled over you, and ye have fled, and there is none pursuing you.

¹⁸ 'And if unto these ye hearken not to Me, — then I have added to chastise you seven times for your sins;

¹⁹ and I have broken the pride of your strength, and have made your heavens as iron, and your earth as brass;

²⁰ and consumed hath been your strength in vain, and your land doth not give her produce, and the tree of the land doth not give its fruit.

²¹ 'And if ye walk with Me in opposition, and are not willing to hearken to Me, then I have added to you a plague seven times, according to your sins,

²² and sent against you the beast of the field, and it hath bereaved you; and I have cut off your cattle, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.

²³ 'And if by these ye are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,

²⁴ then I have walked — I also — with you in opposition, and have smitten you, even I, seven times for your sins;

²⁵ and I have brought in on you a sword, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and ye have been gathered unto your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and ye have been given into the hand of an enemy.

²⁶ 'In My breaking to you the staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and ye have eaten, and are not satisfied.

²⁷ 'And if for this ye hearken not to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,

²⁸ then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have chastised you, even I, seven times for your sins.

²⁹ 'And ye have eaten the flesh of your sons; even flesh of your daughters ye do eat.

³⁰ And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images, and have put your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and My soul hath loathed you;

³¹ and I have made your cities a waste, and have made desolate your sanctuaries, and I smell not at your sweet fragrances;

³² and I have made desolate the land, and your enemies, who are dwelling in it, have been astonished at it.
