14 "'But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments;NHEB — Leviticus 26:14
15 and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhors my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant;NHEB — Leviticus 26:15
16 I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and you will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it.NHEB — Leviticus 26:16
17 I will set my face against you, and you will be struck before your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you will flee when no one pursues you.NHEB — Leviticus 26:17

24 then I will also walk contrary to you; and I will strike you, even I, seven times for your sins.NHEB — Leviticus 26:24
25 I will bring a sword upon you, that will execute the vengeance of the covenant; and you will be gathered together within your cities: and I will send the pestilence among you; and you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy.NHEB — Leviticus 26:25
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 you shall eat, and not be satisfied.NHEB — Leviticus 26:26
27 "'If you in spite of this won't listen to me, but walk contrary to me;NHEB — Leviticus 26:27

33 I will scatter you among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you: and your land will be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.NHEB — Leviticus 26:33
34 Then the land will enjoy its sabbaths as long as it lies desolate and you are in your enemies' land. Even then the land will rest and enjoy its sabbaths.NHEB — Leviticus 26:34
35 As long as it lies desolate it shall have rest, even the rest which it did not have in your sabbaths, when you lived on it.NHEB — Leviticus 26:35
36 "'As for those of you who are left, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies: and the sound of a driven leaf will put them to flight; and they shall flee, as one flees from the sword; and they will fall when no one pursues.NHEB — Leviticus 26:36
37 They will stumble over one another, as it were before the sword, when no one pursues: and you will have no power to stand before your enemies.NHEB — Leviticus 26:37
38 You will perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies will eat you up.NHEB — Leviticus 26:38
39 Those of you who are left will rot away in their iniquity in the lands of their enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they rot away with them.NHEB — Leviticus 26:39
40 "'If they confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they trespassed against me, and also that, because they walked contrary to me,NHEB — Leviticus 26:40
41 I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies: if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity;NHEB — Leviticus 26:41
42 then I will remember my covenant with Jacob; and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham; and I will remember the land.NHEB — Leviticus 26:42
43 The land also will be left by them, and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them: and they will accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected my ordinances, and their soul abhorred my statutes.NHEB — Leviticus 26:43
44 Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God;NHEB — Leviticus 26:44
45 but I will for their sake remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am the LORD.'"NHEB — Leviticus 26:45
46 These are the statutes, ordinances and laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai by Moses.NHEB — Leviticus 26:46
