- 1. Ye shall make yourselves no idols, neither rear you up for yourselves carved image, or statue, nor shall ye set up a figured stone in your land, to bow down unto it; for I am Jehovah your God.
- 2. Ye shall observe my sabbaths, and my sanctuary shall ye reverence: I am Jehovah.
- 3. If ye walk in my statutes, and observe my commandments and do them,
- 4. then I will give your rain in the season thereof, and the land shall yield its produce, 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 securely.
- 6. And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will put away the evil beasts out of the land; and the sword shall not 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 a hundred, and a hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight; and your enemies shall fall beside you by the sword.
- 9. And I will turn my face towards you and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
- 10. And ye shall eat old store, and clear away the old because of the new.
- 11. And I will set my habitation 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 to me a people.
- 13. I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you walk upright.
- 14. But if ye hearken not unto me, and do not all these commandments,
- 15. and if ye shall despise my statutes, and if your soul shall abhor mine ordinances, so that ye do not all my commandments, that ye break my covenant,
- 16. I also will do this unto you -- I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and fever, which shall cause the eyes to fail, and the soul to waste away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
- 17. And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed before your enemies; they that hate you shall have dominion over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
- 18. And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you sevenfold more for your sins,
- 19. and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as bronze,
- 20. and your strength shall be spent in vain, and your land shall not yield its produce; and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.
- 21. And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you according to your sins.
- 22. And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.
- 23. And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but walk contrary unto me,
- 24. then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will smite you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
- 25. And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered together into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
- 26. When I break the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and shall deliver you the bread again by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
- 27. And if for this ye hearken not to 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-fold 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 lay waste your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.
- 31. And I will lay waste your cities and desolate your sanctuaries; and I will not smell your sweet odours.
- 32. And I will bring the land into desolation; that your enemies who dwell there in may be astonished at it.
- 33. And I will scatter you among the nations, and will draw out the sword after you; and your land shall be desolation, and your cities waste.
- 34. Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths all the days of the desolation, when ye are in your enemies' land; then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths.
- 35. All the days of the desolation it shall rest, [the days in] which it did not rest on your sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.
- 36. And as to those that remain of you -- I will send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, that the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth;
- 37. and they shall stumble one over 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 nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
- 39. And they that remain of you shall waste away through their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also through the iniquities of their fathers shall they waste away with them.
- 40. And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, through their unfaithfulness wherein they were unfaithful to me, and also that they have walked contrary unto me,
- 41. so that I also walked contrary unto them, and brought them into the land of their enemies. If then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity,
- 42. I will 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. For the land shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its sabbaths, when it is in desolation without them; and they shall accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they despised my judgments, and their soul abhorred my statutes.
- 44. And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not despise them, and will not abhor them, to make an end of them utterly, to break my covenant with them, for I am Jehovah their God.
- 45. But I will remember toward them the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, that I might be their God: I am Jehovah.
- 46. These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which Jehovah made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
