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. ego enim sum Dominus Deus vester.

Ye shall not make yourselves any idols, and a graven image, or a standing image shall ye not rear up unto you, and any carved stone shall you not place in your land, to bow down upon it; for I am the Eternal your God.

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

My sabbaths shall ye keep, and my sanctuary shall ye reverence: I am the Lord.

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

If in my statutes ye walk, and if my commandments ye keep, and do them:

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

Then will I give you rains in their due season, and the earth shall yield her products, and the tree of the field shall yield its fruit.

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

And the threshing shall reach with you unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto sowing-time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and ye shall dwell in safety in your land.

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, with none to make you afraid; and I will remove evil beasts out of the land, and the sword shall not pass 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 turn myself unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you; and I will establish my covenant with you.

10 Comedetis vetustissima veterum, et vetera novis supervenientibus proiicietis.

And ye shall eat very old store, and the old shall ye remove away because of the new.

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

And I will set my dwelling among you; and my soul shall not loath you.

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

And I will walk among you, and I will be to you a God, and ye shall be to me a people.

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

I am the Eternal your God, who have brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bond-men; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and caused you to walk 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 quae a me constituta sunt, et ad irritum perducatis pactum meum:

And if my statutes ye despise, and if my ordinances your soul loath, so as not to do all my commandments, in that ye break my covenant:

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

Then will I also do this unto you, and I will inflict on you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart; and ye shall sow in vain your seed, 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 struck down before your enemies: and they that hate you shall bear rule over you; and ye shall flee while there is no one pursuing you.

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

And if with these things even ye will not yet hearken unto me: then will I chastise you yet more, sevenfold for your sins.

19 et conteram superbiam duritiae vestrae. Daboque vobis caelum desuper sicut ferrum, et terram aeneam.

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

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

And in vain shall your strength be spent; for your land shall not yield her products, and the tree of the land shall not yield its fruit.

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

And if ye walk yet contrary unto me, and if you refuse to hearken unto me: then will I bring more plagues upon you, sevenfold according to your sins.

22 immittamque in vos bestias agri, quae consumant vos, et pecora vestra, et ad paucitatem cuncta redigant, desertaeque fiant viae vestrae.

And I will send out against you the beasts of the field, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and diminish yourselves; so that your roads shall be desolate.

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

And if notwithstanding these things ye will not be reformed by me, and 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 also will punish you, sevenfold for your sins.

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

And I will bring over you the sword, avenging the quarrel of my covenant, so that ye shall be gathered together within your cities; and then will I send the pestilence among you, that ye shall deliver yourselves 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 unto you the staff of bread; and 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 haec audieritis me, sed ambulaveritis contra me:

And if notwithstanding this ye will not 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 will I also walk contrary unto you in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you, sevenfold 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 simulachra confringam. Cadetis inter ruinas idolorum vestrorum, et abominabitur vos anima mea,

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

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

And I will render your cities a waste, and I will make desolate your sanctuaries, and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors.

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

And I will surely make desolate the land: and your enemies who dwell therein shall be astonished at it.

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

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

34 Tunc placebunt terrae sabbata sua cunctis diebus solitudinis suae: quando fueritis

Then shall the land satisfy its sabbaths, all the days of its desolation, when ye are in the land of your enemies: then shall the land rest, and satisfy its sabbaths.

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

All the days of its desolation shall it rest, the time which it did not rest 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 regarding those that are left of you, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a leaf shaken shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from the sword; and they shall fall with none pursuing.

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

And they shall stumble one over the other, as before the sword, without one pursuing: and ye shall have no power to stand up before your enemies.

38 peribitis inter Gentes, et hostilis vos terra consumet.

And ye shall be lost among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall consume you.

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 the land of your enemies; and also through the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.

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

And they shall then confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, [that] through their trespass which they trespassed against me, and also that [because] they had 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 had to walk contrary unto them, and to bring them into the land of their enemies; and then shall their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and then shall they satisfy their iniquity.

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

And I will then remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and the land will I remember.

43 quae 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 be forsaken by them, and shall satisfy its sabbaths, while it lieth desolate without them, and they shall satisfy their iniquity; because, even because my ordinances they despised, and my statutes their soul loathed.

44 Attamen 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, though they be in the land of their enemies, will I not cast them away, neither will I loath them, to destroy them utterly, to break my covenant with them; for I am the Lord their God.

45 et recordabor foederis mei pristini, quando eduxi eos de Terra Aegypti in conspectu Gentium, ut essem Deus eorum. ego Dominus Deus.

But I will remember for their sakes the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, that I might be unto them a God: I am the Lord.

46 Haec sunt iudicia atque praecepta et leges, quas dedit Dominus inter se et inter 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 on mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
