Chapter 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.

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 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.
2 Cor 6:16

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 Ihave broken the bands 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 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 destroyyour cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall bedesolate.

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 carcasses upon the carcasses 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 savor of your sweet odors.

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 theirfathers 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 uncircumcisedhearts 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 becausethey 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, neitherwill 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.
