Leviticus 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 to it: for I [am] the LORD your God.
“You do not make idols for yourselves; and you do not set up carved image or standing image for yourselves; and you do not put a stone of imagery in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for I [am] your God YHWH.
2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I [am] the LORD.
You keep My Sabbaths and you revere My sanctuary; I [am] YHWH.
3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
If you walk in My statutes, and you keep My commands, and have done 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:
then I have given your rains in their season, and the land has given her produce, and the tree of the field gives its fruit;
5 And your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
and the threshing has reached to you, [and] the gathering, and the gathering reaches the sowing-[time]; and you have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land.
6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make [you] afraid: and I will rid the land of evil beasts, neither shall the sword go through your land.
And I have given peace in the land, and you have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, and the sword does not pass over into your land.
7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
And you have pursued your enemies, and they have fallen before you by the sword;
8 And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
and five of you have pursued one hundred, and one hundred of you pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword.
9 For I will have respect to you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
And I have turned to you, and have made you fruitful, and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;
10 And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new.
and you have eaten old [store], and you bring out the old because of the new.
11 And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
And I have given My Dwelling Place in your midst, and My soul does not loathe you;
12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
and I have habitually walked in your midst, and have become your God, and you become My people;
13 I [am] the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bond-men, and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
I [am] your God YHWH, who has 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 But if ye will not hearken to me, and will not do all these commandments;
And if you do not listen to Me and do not do all these commands,
15 And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul shall abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, [but] that ye break my covenant:
and if you kick at My statutes, and if your soul loathes My judgments, so as not to do all My commands—to your breaking My covenant—
16 I also will do this to 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.
I also do this to you: I have even appointed trouble over you, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and you have sowed your seed in vain, and your enemies have eaten 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.
and I have set My face against you, and you have been struck before your enemies; and those hating you have ruled over you, and you have fled when there is none pursuing you.
18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken to me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
And if up to these you [still] do not listen to Me—then I have added to discipline you sevenfold 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:
and I have broken the pride of your strength, and have made your heavens as iron, and your earth as bronze;
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.
and your strength has been consumed in vain, and your land does not give her produce, and the tree of the land does not give its fruit.
21 And if ye shall walk contrary to me, and will not hearken to me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.
And if you walk with Me [in] opposition, and are not willing to listen to Me, then I have added to you a plague sevenfold, 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 [high] -ways shall be desolate.
and sent the beast of the field against you, and it has bereaved you; and I have cut off your livestock, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.
23 And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary to me;
And if by these you are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me [in] opposition,
24 Then will I also walk contrary to you, and I will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
then I have walked—I also—with you in opposition, and have struck you, even I, sevenfold 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 within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you: and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
and I have brought in a sword on you, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and you have been gathered to your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and you have been given into the hand of an enemy.
26 [And] when I have broke 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.
In My breaking your staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and you have eaten and are not satisfied.
27 And if ye will not for all this hearken to me, but walk contrary to me;
And if for this you do not listen to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,
28 Then I will walk contrary to you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have disciplined you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
And you have eaten [the] flesh of your sons; and you eat [the] flesh of your daughters.
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.
And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images, and have put your carcasses on the carcasses of your idols, and My soul has loathed you;
31 And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors.
and I have made your cities a ruin, and have made your sanctuaries desolate, and I do not smell your refreshing fragrance;
32 And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it.
and I have made the land desolate, and your enemies who are dwelling in it have been 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.
And I scatter you among nations, and have drawn out a sword after you, and your land has been a desolation, and your cities are a ruin.
34 Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye [are] in your enemies' land; [even] then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.
Then the land enjoys its Sabbaths all the days of the desolation—and you [are] in the land of your enemies; then the land rests, and has enjoyed its Sabbaths;
35 As long as it lieth desolate, it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
it rests all the days of the desolation [for] that which it has not rested in your Sabbaths, in your dwelling on 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.
And those who are left of you—I have also brought a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a leaf driven away has pursued them, and they have fled [as in] flight from a sword—and they have fallen, and there is none pursuing.
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.
And they have stumbled on one another, as from the face of a sword, and there is none pursuing, and you have no standing before your enemies,
38 And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
and you have perished among the nations, and the land of your enemies has consumed you.
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.
And those who are left of you—they consume away in their iniquity, in the lands of your enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers, they consume 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 to me;
And [if] they have confessed their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they have trespassed against Me, and also that they have walked with Me in opposition,
41 And [that] I also have walked contrary to them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts shall be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
when I also walk in opposition to them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies—if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept 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.
then I have remembered My covenant [with] Jacob, and also My covenant [with] Isaac, and also My covenant [with] Abraham I remember, and I remember the land.
43 The land also shall be left by 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.
And the land is left by them, and enjoys its Sabbaths, in the desolation without them, and they accept the punishment of their iniquity, because, even because, they have kicked against My judgments, and their soul has loathed My statutes,
44 And yet for all that, when they shall 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.
and also even this, in their being in the land of their enemies, I have not rejected them, nor have I loathed them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I [am] their God YHWH—
45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I [am] the LORD.
then I have remembered for them the covenant of the ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to become their God; I [am] YHWH.”
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.
These [are] the statutes, and the judgments, and the laws, which YHWH has given between Him and the sons of Israel in Mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
