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

I [am] the Lord your God: ye shall not make to yourselves gods made with hands, or graven; neither shall ye rear up a pillar for yourselves, neither shall ye set up a stone [for] an object in your land to worship it: 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 sanctuaries: I am the Lord.

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

If ye will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, and do them,

4 et terra gignet germen suum et pomis arbores replebuntur

then will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

5 adprehendet messium tritura vindemiam et vindemia occupabit sementem et comedetis panem vestrum in saturitatem et absque pavore habitabitis in terra vestra

And your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and ye shall eat your bread to the full; and ye shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through 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 your land, and ye shall sleep, and none [shall] make you afraid; and I will destroy the evil beasts out of your land,

7 persequemini inimicos vestros et corruent coram vobis

and ye shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you with slaughter.

8 persequentur quinque de vestris centum alienos et centum ex vobis decem milia cadent inimici vestri in conspectu vestro gladio

And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase tens of thousands; 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 look upon you, and increase you, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.

10 comedetis vetustissima veterum et vetera novis supervenientibus proicietis

And ye shall eat that which is old and very old, and bring forth the old to make way for the new.

11 ponam tabernaculum meum in medio vestri et non abiciet vos anima mea

And I will set my tabernacle among you, and my soul shall not abhor you;

12 ambulabo inter vos et ero vester Deus vosque eritis populus meus

and I will walk among you, and be your God, and ye shall be my 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 Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, where ye were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.

14 quod si non audieritis me nec feceritis omnia mandata mea

But if ye will not hearken to me, nor obey these my ordinances,

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

but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgments, so that ye should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,

16 ego quoque haec faciam vobis visitabo vos velociter in egestate et ardore qui conficiat oculos vestros et consumat animas frustra seretis sementem quae ab hostibus devorabitur

then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and [disease] that consumes your life; and ye shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.

17 ponam faciem meam contra vos et corruetis coram hostibus vestris et subiciemini his qui oderunt vos fugietis nemine persequente

And I will set my face against you, and ye shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and ye shall flee, no one pursuing you.

18 sin autem nec sic oboedieritis mihi addam correptiones vestras septuplum propter peccata vestra

And if ye still refuse to hearken to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times for your sins.

19 et conteram superbiam duritiae vestrae daboque caelum vobis desuper sicut ferrum et terram aeneam

And I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were brass.

20 consumetur in cassum labor vester non proferet terra germen nec arbores poma praebebunt

And your strength shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its fruit.

21 si ambulaveritis ex adverso mihi nec volueritis audire me addam plagas vestras usque in septuplum propter peccata vestra

And if after this ye should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to your sins.

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

And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.

23 quod si nec sic volueritis recipere disciplinam sed ambulaveritis ex adverso mihi

And if hereupon ye are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,

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

I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will smite you seven times for your sins.

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

And I will bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of [my] covenant, and ye shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and ye shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

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 afflict you with famine of bread, then ten women shall bake your loaves in one oven, and they shall render your loaves by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.

27 sin autem nec per haec audieritis me sed ambulaveritis contra me

And if hereupon ye will not obey me, but walk perversely towards me,

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

then will I walk with you with a froward mind, and I will chasten you seven-fold according to your sins.

29 ita ut comedatis carnes filiorum 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 render your pillars desolate, and will utterly destroy your wooden [images] made with hands; and I will lay your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall loathe you.

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

And I will lay your cities waste, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will not smell the savour of your sacrifices.

32 disperdamque terram vestram et stupebunt super ea inimici vestri cum habitatores illius fuerint

And I will lay your land desolate, and your enemies who dwell in it shall wonder at it.

33 vos autem dispergam in gentes et evaginabo post vos gladium eritque terra vestra deserta et civitates dirutae

And I will scatter you among the nations, and the sword shall come upon you and consume you; and your land shall be desolate, and your cities shall be desolate.

34 tunc placebunt terrae sabbata sua cunctis diebus solitudinis suae quando fueritis

Then the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation.

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

And ye shall be in the land of your enemies; then the land shall keep its sabbaths, and the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation: it shall keep sabbaths which it kept not among your sabbaths, when ye dwelt in 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 sequente

And to those who are left of you I will bring bondage into their heart in the land of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as fleeing from war, and shall fall when none pursues them.

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

And brother shall disregard brother as in war, when none pursues; and ye shall not be able to withstand your enemies.

38 peribitis inter gentes et hostilis vos terra consumet

And ye shall perish among the Gentiles, and the land of your enemies shall devour you.

39 quod si et de his aliqui remanserint tabescent in iniquitatibus suis in terra inimicorum suorum et propter peccata patrum suorum et sua adfligentur

And those who are left of you shall perish, because of their sins, and because of the sins of their fathers: in the land of their enemies shall they consume away.

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

And they shall confess their sins, and the sins of their fathers, that they have transgressed and neglected me, and that they have walked perversely before me,

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

and I walked with them with a perverse mind; and I will destroy them in the land of their enemies: then shall their uncircumcised heart be ashamed, and then shall they acquiesce in [the punishment of] their sins.

42 et recordabor foederis mei quod pepigi cum Iacob et Isaac et Abraham terrae quoque memor ero

And I will remember the covenant of Jacob, and the covenant of Isaac, and the covenant of Abraam will I remember.

43 quae cum relicta fuerit ab eis conplacebit sibi in sabbatis suis patiens solitudinem propter illos ipsi vero rogabunt pro peccatis suis eo quod abiecerint iudicia mea et leges meas despexerint

And I will remember the land, and the land shall be left of them; then the land shall enjoy her sabbaths, when it is deserted through them: and they shall accept [the punishment of] their iniquities, because they neglected my judgments, and in their soul loathed my ordinances.

44 et tamen etiam cum essent in terra hostili non penitus abieci eos neque sic despexi ut consumerentur et irritum facerem pactum meum cum eis ego enim sum Dominus Deus eorum

And yet not even thus, while they were in the land of their enemies, did I overlook them, nor did I loathe them so as to consume them, to break my covenant made 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

And I will remember their former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage before the nation, to be their God; I am the Lord.

46 haec sunt praecepta atque iudicia et leges quas dedit Dominus inter se et inter filios Israhel in monte Sinai per manum Mosi

These are my judgments and my ordinances, and the law which the Lord gave between himself and the children of Israel, in the mount Sina, by the hand of Moses.
