< Leviticus 26 >

1 [Yahweh also said this to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain]: “Do not make idols or set up statues of false gods or sacred stones [to worship other gods]. And do not put on your property a stone that has been shaped [to resemble a false god] and bow down to [worship] it. [You must worship only] me, Yahweh, your God.
Not you must make for yourselves worthless idols and an idol and a sacred pillar not you must set up for yourselves and a stone of a carved image not you must make in land your to bow down to it for I [am] Yahweh God your.
2 “Honor the Sabbath days and revere my Sacred Tent, because I, Yahweh, [live there].
Sabbaths my you will keep and sanctuary my you will fear I [am] Yahweh.
3 “If you carefully obey all my commands [DOU],
If in statutes my you will walk and commandments my you will keep and you will do them.
4 I will send rain for you at the proper/right times, in order that crops will grow on your land and there will be plenty of fruit on your trees.
And I will give rains your at time their and it will give the land produce its and [the] tree[s] of the field it will give fruit its.
5 You will continue [harvesting and] threshing [grain] until it is time to harvest grapes, and you will continue to harvest grapes until it is time to start planting [things in the following year]. And you will have all the food that you want to eat, and you will live safely in your land.
And it will reach of you threshing grape harvest and grape harvest it will reach seed and you will eat bread your to abundance and you will dwell to security in land your.
6 “[If you obey all my laws], there will be peace in your country, and when you lie down [to sleep], nothing will cause you to be afraid. I will get rid of the dangerous animals in your country, and there will no wars [MTY] in your country.
And I will give peace in the land and you will lie down and there not [will be one who] terrifies and I will cause to cease animal[s] wild from the land and a sword not it will pass in land your.
7 You will pursue your enemies and kill them with your swords:
And you will pursue enemies your and they will fall before you to the sword
8 Five of you will pursue 100 of them, and 100 of you will pursue 1,000 of them and kill them with your swords.
and they will pursue of you five one hundred and one hundred of you ten thousand they will pursue and they will fall enemies your before you to the sword.
9 “[If you obey all my laws], I will bless you and cause you to have many children [DOU]. And I will do what I said that I would do in the agreement that I made with you.
And I will turn to you and I will make fruitful you and I will multiply you and I will establish covenant my with you.
10 When you are still eating food from the harvest from the previous year, it will be necessary for you to throw away some of it to make space for the new harvest.
And you will eat old harvest growing old and old harvest from before [the] new [harvest] you will bring out.
11 I will live among you in my Sacred Tent, and I will never reject you.
And I will put dwelling place my in midst of you and not it will abhor self my you.
12 I will walk among you and continue to be your God, and you will continue to be my people.
And I will walk about in midst of you and I will become for you God and you you will become for me a people.
13 I am Yahweh your God, the one who brought you out of Egypt in order that you would no longer be slaves of the people of Egypt. [When you were there, you were treated as though you were animals that worked for the people of Egypt, but] [MET] I broke the bars of the (yokes/frames that were put around your necks) and enabled you to walk with your heads up.”
I [am] Yahweh God your who I brought out you from [the] land of Egypt from being to them slaves and I broke [the] bars of yoke your and I made walk you upright.
14 “But if you will not heed me and obey all these commands,
And if not you will listen to me and not you will do all the commandments these.
15 and if you reject [DOU] my decrees and laws, and do not do [DOU] what I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you,
And if statutes my you will reject and if judgments my it will abhor self your to not to do all commandments my to break you covenant my.
16 these are the things that I will do to you: I will suddenly cause there to be disasters that will ruin you. You will have diseases that cannot be cured, and fevers that will cause you to become blind and will slowly kill you. It will be useless for you to plant seeds, because your enemies will eat the crops that grow.
Also I I will do this to you and I will appoint on you sudden terror consumption and fever [which] cause to fail [the] eyes and [which] make pine away [the] life and you will sow to emptiness seed your and they will eat it enemies your.
17 I will reject/abandon you [IDM], with the result that you will be defeated by your enemies. Then those who hate you will rule you, and [you will be so terrified that] you will run away even when no one is pursuing you.
And I will set face my on you and you will be defeated before enemies your and they will rule over you [those who] hate you and you will flee and there not [is one who] pursues you.
18 “If you still will not heed me after all those things happen to you, I will continue to punish you again and again for the sins that you have committed.
And if up to these [things] not you will listen to me and I will repeat to discipline you sevenfold on sins your.
19 I will cause you to no longer be stubborn and proud; I will cause [no rain to fall; it will be as though] [MET] the sky is made of iron; and the ground will be [as hard as] brass [MET].
And I will break [the] pride of strength your and I will make heavens your like iron and land your like bronze.
20 You will uselessly work very hard [to plant seeds], because crops will not grow in the hard soil in your fields, and fruit will not grow on your trees.
And it will be consumed to emptiness strength your and not it will give land your produce its and [the] tree[s] of the land not it will give fruit its.
21 “If you continue to oppose me and refuse to heed me, I will cause you to experience disasters again and again, like you deserve to experience because of your sins.
And if you will walk with me contrariness and not you will be willing to listen to me and I will add to you a blow sevenfold according to sins your.
22 I will send wild animals to attack you, and they will kill your little children and destroy your cattle. There will be very few of you who will remain alive, with the result that there will be very few [HYP] people walking on the roads in your country.
And I will send among you [the] animal[s] of the field and it will make childless you and it will cut off livestock your and it will diminish you and they will be desolate roads your.
23 “When you experience those things that I do to punish you, if you still do not pay attention to me, and if you continue to oppose me,
And if by these [things] not you will let yourself be disciplined by me and you will walk with me contrariness.
24 I myself will oppose you, and I will punish you for your sins again and again.
And I will walk also I with you in contrariness and I will strike down you also I sevenfold on sins your.
25 I will send [foreign] [MTY] to punish you for not doing the things that I commanded you to do in the agreement that I made with you. If you [try to escape from your enemies by] shutting yourselves in your cities [that have walls around them], I will cause you to experience plagues, and I will allow your enemies to capture [IDM] you.
And I will bring on you a sword [which will] avenge vengeance of a covenant and you will gather to cities your and I will send a pestilence in midst of you and you will be given in [the] hand of an enemy.
26 When I cut off your food supply, there will be very little flour with which to make bread. As a result, ten women will be able to bake all their bread in [only] one oven. [When the bread is baked], each woman will divide it [among the members of her family, but there will be very little for each one], and when they have eaten all of it, they will still be hungry.
When break I of you staff of bread and they will bake ten women bread your in an oven one and they will bring back bread your by weight and you will eat and not you will be satisfied.
27 “After all those things happen, if you still do not heed me, if you still oppose me,
And if in this not you will listen to me and you will walk with me in contrariness.
28 I will be very angry with you, and I will oppose you, and I myself will punish you for your sins again and again.
And I will walk with you in anger of contrariness and I will discipline you also I sevenfold on sins your.
29 [You will be extremely hungry, with the result that] you will [kill] your sons and daughters and eat their flesh.
And you will eat [the] flesh of sons your and [the] flesh of daughters your you will eat.
30 I will cause the shrines [where you worship idols] on hilltops to be destroyed. I will smash the altars where you burn incense [to worship your gods], and I will cause your corpses to be piled on the lifeless statues of your gods. And I will detest you.
And I will destroy high places your and I will cut down incense altars your and I will put corpses your on [the] corpses of idols your and it will abhor self my you.
31 I will cause your cities to become heaps of ruins, and I will cause the buildings that are dedicated to the worship of your gods to be smashed. And I will not be pleased at all with the aroma of your offerings [that are burned on the altar].
And I will make cities your a waste place and I will devastate sanctuaries your and not I will smell [the] odor of soothing your.
32 I will completely ruin your country, with the result that even your enemies who capture it will be shocked/appalled [when they see it].
And I will devastate I the land and they will be appalled on it enemies your who dwell in it.
33 I will enable [your enemies to kill you with] their swords, and I will cause the rest of you to be scattered among other nations. Your country will be ruined and your cities will become ruins.
And you I will scatter among the nations and I will draw after you a sword and it will be land your a desolation and cities your they will be a waste place.
34 After that happens, as long as you are living in your enemies’ countries, your land will be allowed to rest, like you should have allowed it to rest every seven years.
Then it will accept the land sabbaths its all [the] days of being made desolate it and you [will be] in [the] land of enemies your then it will cease the land and it will accept sabbaths its.
35 All the time that your land is desolate, it will be able to rest, like you did not enable it to rest during all the years that you lived there.
All [the] days of being made desolate it it will cease which not it ceased in sabbaths your when dwelt you on it.
36 “As for you people who will remain alive in the countries to which your enemies [will have taken you], I will cause you to become so afraid that when you hear the sound of leaves being blown by the wind, you will run away. You will run like [SIM] you are running from [a man carrying] a sword, and you will fall down, even though no one is pursuing you.
And those [who] remain among you and I will bring despair in heart their in [the] land of enemies their and it will pursue them [the] sound of a leaf driven about and they will flee a flight of a sword and they will fall and there not [is one who] pursues.
37 You will stumble over each other. So you will not be able to stand and fight your enemies.
And they will stumble each over brother his as from before a sword and [is one who] pursues there not and not it will belong to you power to stand before enemies your.
38 Many of you will die in the countries that belong to your enemies [DOU].
And you will perish among the nations and it will consume you [the] land of enemies your.
39 And those of you who remain alive will slowly die and rot in the countries of your enemies because of your sins and because of the sins of your ancestors.
And those [who] remain among you they will rot away in iniquity their in [the] land of enemies your and also in [the] iniquities of ancestors their with them they will rot away.
40 “But your descendants must confess their sins and the sins that their ancestors committed. Their ancestors acted unfaithfully toward me and were hostile to me, with the result that I forced them to go to the countries that belonged to their enemies. But when your descendants humble themselves [SYN] and stop being very stubborn [IDM] and accept being punished for their sins,
And they will confess iniquity their and [the] iniquity of ancestors their by unfaithfulness their which they acted unfaithfully against me and also that they walked with me in contrariness.
Also I I will walk with them in contrariness and I will bring them in [the] land of enemies their or then it will humble itself heart their uncircumcised and then they will accept iniquity their.
42 I will remember the agreement that I made with [your ancestors] Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and [what I promised them about] this land.
And I will remember covenant of my Jacob and also covenant of my Isaac and also covenant of my Abraham I will remember and the land I will remember.
43 But [before that happens], you will be forced to leave your land, with the result that the land will be able to rest while it is desolate and while the people are being punished for rejecting my laws and hating my decrees [DOU].
And the land it will be forsaken from them and it may accept sabbaths its when is made desolate it from them and they they will accept iniquity their because and by cause judgments my they rejected and statutes my it abhorred self their.
44 But when that happens, I will still not reject them or hate them and destroy them completely. I will not cancel the agreement that I made with them; for I am still Yahweh their God.
And also also this when are they in [the] land of enemies their not I will reject them and not I will abhor them to make an end of them to break covenant my with them for I [am] Yahweh God their.
45 I will (remember/never forget) the agreement that I made with your ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt, in order that the people of all nations will know that I, Yahweh, [will continue to] be your God.”
And I will remember to them [the] covenant of [the] forefathers whom I brought out them from [the] land of Egypt to [the] eyes of the nations to become for them God I [am] Yahweh.
46 Those are the decrees, the laws, and the regulations [DOU] that Yahweh established on Sinai Mountain between himself and the Israeli people by [giving them to] Moses/me [to tell to them].
These [are] the statutes and the judgments and the legal [procedures] which he gave Yahweh between himself and between [the] people of Israel on [the] mountain of Sinai by [the] hand of Moses.
