Leviticus_26 Lyrics

26:1You shall make you no idols, neither shall you rear you up an engraved image, or a pillar, neither shall you place any figured stone in your land, to bow down to it: for I am Yahweh your God. 26:2You shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Yahweh. 26:3If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; 26:4then I will give your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. 26:5Your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time; and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely. 26:6I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will cause evil animals to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land. 26:7You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. 26:8Five 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. 26:9I will have respect to you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you. 26:10You shall eat old store long kept, and you shall bring forth the old because of the new. 26:11I will set my tent among you: and my soul won't abhor you. 26:12I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people. 26:13I am Yahweh your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their bondservants; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright. 26:14But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments; 26:15and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant; 26:16I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 26:17I will set my face against you, and you shall be struck before your enemies: those who hate you shall rule over you; and you shall flee when none pursues you. 26:18If you will not yet for these things listen to me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins. 26:19I will break the pride of your power: and I will make your sky as iron, and your earth as brass; 26:20and your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield its increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit. 26:21If you walk contrary to me, and won't listen to me, I will bring seven times more plagues on you according to your sins. 26:22I will send the animal 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. 26:23If by these things you won't be reformed to me, but will walk contrary to me; 26:24then will I also walk contrary to you; and I will strike you, even I, seven times for your sins. 26:25I will bring a sword on you, that shall execute the vengeance of the covenant; and you shall be gathered together within your cities: and I will send the pestilence among you; and you shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy. 26:26When 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 you shall eat, and not be satisfied. 26:27If you won't for all this listen to me, but walk contrary to me; 26:28then I will walk contrary to you in wrath; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins. 26:29You shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall you eat. 26:30I will destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-images, and cast your dead bodies on the bodies of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you. 26:31I will make your cities a waste, and will bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I won't smell the savor of your sweet odors. 26:32I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein shall be astonished at it. 26:33You 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. 26:34Then shall the land enjoy its Sabbaths, as long as it lies desolate, and you are in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy its Sabbaths. 26:35As long as it lies desolate it shall have rest, even the rest which it didn't have in your Sabbaths, when you lived on it. 26:36As for those who 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 flees from the sword; and they shall fall when none pursues. 26:37They shall stumble one on another, as it were before the sword, when none pursues: and you shall have no power to stand before your enemies. 26:38You shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up. 26:39Those who 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. 26:40They shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they trespassed against me, and also that, because they walked contrary to me, 26:41I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies: if then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity; 26:42then 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. 26:43The land also shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its Sabbaths, while it lies desolate without them: and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected my ordinances, and their soul abhorred my statutes. 26:44Yet 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 Yahweh their God; 26:45but 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 Yahweh. 26:46These are the statutes and ordinances and laws, which Yahweh made between him and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai by Moses.
