Leviticus 26

1 Ego Dominus Deus vester: Non facietis vobis idolum et sculptile, nec titulos erigetis, nec insignem lapidem ponetis in terra vestra, ut adoretis eum. Eo enim sum Dominus Deus vester.

Ye shall make you no idols, neither shall ye rear you up a graven image, or a pillar, neither shall ye place any figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it; for I am the LORD your God.

2 Custodite sabbata mea, et pavete ad Sanctuarium meum. Ego Dominus.

Ye shall keep My sabbaths, and reverence My sanctuary: I am the LORD.

3 Si in præceptis meis ambulaveritis, et mandata mea custodieritis, et feceritis ea, dabo vobis pluvias temporibus suis,

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

4 et terra gignet germen suum, et pomis arbores replebuntur.

then I will give your rains in their season, and the land shall yield her produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

5 Apprehendet messium tritura vindemiam, et vindemia occupabit sementem: et comedetis panem vestrum in saturitate, et absque pavore habitabitis in terra vestra.

And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time; and ye shall eat your bread until ye have enough, and dwell in your land safely.

6 Dabo pacem in finibus vestris: dormietis, et non erit qui exterreat. Auferam malas bestias: et gladius non transibit terminos vestros.

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 Persequemini inimicos vestros, et corruent coram vobis.

And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.

8 Persequentur quinque de vestris centum alienos, et centum de vobis decem millia: cadent inimici vestri gladio in conspectu vestro.

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 Respiciam vos, et crescere faciam: multiplicabimini, et firmabo pactum meum vobiscum.

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

10 Comedetis vetustissima veterum, et vetera novis supervenientibus proiicietis.

And ye shall eat old store long kept, and ye shall bring forth the old from before the new.

11 Ponam tabernaculum meum in medio vestri, et non abiiciet vos anima mea.

And I will set My tabernacle among you, and My soul shall not abhor you.

12 Ambulabo inter vos, et ero Deus vester, vosque eritis populus meus.

And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be My people.

13 Ego Dominus Deus vester: qui eduxi vos de Terra Ægyptiorum, ne serviretis eis, et qui confregi catenas cervicum vestrarum, ut incederetis erecti.

I am the LORD 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 Quod si non audieritis me, nec feceritis omnia mandata mea,

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

15 si spreveritis leges meas, et iudicia mea contempseritis, ut non faciatis ea quæ a me constituta sunt, et ad irritum perducatis pactum meum:

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 ego quoque hæc faciam vobis: Visitabo vos velociter in egestate, et ardore, qui conficiat oculos vestros, et consumat animas vestras. Frustra seretis sementem, quæ ab hostibus devorabitur.

I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall make the eyes to fail, and the soul to languish; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

17 Ponam faciem meam contra vos, et corruetis coram hostibus vestris, et subiiciemini his qui oderunt vos. Fugietis, nemine persequente.

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 Sin autem nec sic obedieritis mihi, addam correptiones vestras septuplum propter peccata vestra,

And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto Me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.

19 et conteram superbiam duritiæ vestræ. Daboque vobis cælum desuper sicut ferrum, et terram æneam.

And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass.

20 Consumetur incassum labor vester, non proferet terra germen, nec arbores poma præbebunt.

And your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield her produce, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.

21 Si ambulaveritis ex adverso mihi, nec volueritis audire me, addam plagas vestras in septuplum propter peccata vestra:

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 immittamque in vos bestias agri, quæ consumant vos, et pecora vestra, et ad paucitatem cuncta redigant, desertæque fiant viæ vestræ.

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 Quod si nec sic volueritis recipere disciplinam, sed ambulaveritis ex adverso mihi:

And if in spite of these things ye will not be corrected unto Me, but will walk contrary unto Me;

24 ego quoque contra vos adversus incedam, et percutiam vos septies propter peccata vestra.

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

25 Inducamque super vos gladium ultorem fœderis mei. Cumque confugeritis in urbes, mittam pestilentiam in medio vestri, et trademini in manibus hostium,

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 postquam confregero baculum panis vestri: ita ut decem mulieres in uno clibano coquant panes, et reddant eos ad pondus: et comedetis, et non saturabimini.

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 Sin autem nec per hæc audieritis me, sed ambulaveritis contra me:

And if ye will not for all this hearken unto Me, but walk contrary unto Me;

28 et ego incedam adversus vos in furore contrario, et corripiam vos septem plagis propter peccata vestra,

then I will walk contrary unto you in fury; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins.

29 ita ut comedatis carnes filiorum vestrorum et filiarum vestrarum.

And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.

30 Destruam excelsa vestra, et simulacra confringam. Cadetis inter ruinas idolorum vestrorum, et abominabitur vos anima mea,

And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcasses upon the carcasses of your idols; and My soul shall abhor you.

31 in tantum ut urbes vestras redigam in solitudinem, et deserta faciam Sanctuaria vestra, nec recipiam ultra odorem suavissimum.

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

32 Disperdamque terram vestram, et stupebunt super ea inimici vestri, cum habitatores illius fuerint.

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

33 Vos autem dispergam in Gentes, et evaginabo post vos gladium, eritque terra vestra deserta, et civitates vestræ dirutæ.

And you will I scatter among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you; and your land shall be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.

34 Tunc placebunt terræ sabbata sua cunctis diebus solitudinis suæ: quando fueritis

Then shall the land be paid her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye are in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and repay her sabbaths.

35 in terra hostili, sabbatizabit, et requiescet in sabbatis solitudinis suæ, eo quod non requieverit in sabbatis vestris quando habitabatis in ea.

As long as it lieth desolate it shall have rest; even the rest which it had not in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.

36 Et qui de vobis remanserint, dabo pavorem in cordibus eorum in regionibus hostium, terrebit eos sonitus folii volantis, et ita fugient quasi gladium: cadent, nullo persequente,

And as for them that are left of you, I will send a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as one fleeth from the sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.

37 et corruent singuli super fratres suos quasi bella fugientes, nemo vestrum inimicis audebit resistere.

And they shall stumble one upon another, as it were before the sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.

38 Peribitis inter Gentes, et hostilis vos terra consumet.

And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

39 Quod si et de iis aliqui remanserint, tabescent in iniquitatibus suis, in terra inimicorum suorum, et propter peccata patrum suorum et sua affligentur:

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.

40 donec confiteantur iniquitates suas, et maiorum suorum, quibus prævaricati sunt in me, et ambulaverunt ex adverso mihi.

And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their treachery which they committed against Me, and also that they have walked contrary unto Me.

41 Ambulabo igitur et ego contra eos, et inducam illos in terram hostilem, donec erubescat incircumcisa mens eorum: tunc orabunt pro impietatibus suis.

I also will walk contrary unto them, and bring them into the land of their enemies; if then perchance their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then be paid the punishment of their iniquity;

42 Et recordabor fœderis mei quod pepigi cum Iacob, et Isaac, et Abraham. Terræ quoque memor ero:

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 quæ cum relicta fuerit ab eis, complacebit sibi in sabbatis suis, patiens solitudinem propter illos. Ipsi vero rogabunt pro peccatis suis, eo quod abiecerint iudicia mea, et leges meas despexerint.

For the land shall lie forsaken without them, and shall be paid her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them; and they shall be paid the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected Mine ordinances, and their soul abhorred My statutes.

44 Et tamen etiam cum essent in terra hostili, non penitus abieci eos, neque sic despexi ut consumerentur, et irritum facerent pactum meum cum eis. Ego enim sum Dominus Deus eorum,

And 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.

45 et recordabor fœderis mei pristini, quando eduxi eos de Terra Ægypti in conspectu Gentium, ut essem Deus eorum. Ego Dominus.

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 nations, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.

46 Hæc sunt iudicia atque præcepta et leges, quas dedit Dominus inter se et filios Israel in monte Sinai per manum Moysi.

These are the statutes and ordinances and laws, which the LORD made between Him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
