1
`Ye do not make to yourselves idols; and graven image or standing image ye do not set up to yourselves; and a stone of imagery ye do not put in your land , to bow yourselves to it; for I [am] Jehovah your God .
2
`My sabbaths ye do keep , and My sanctuary ye do reverence; I [am] Jehovah .
3
`If in My statutes ye walk , and My commands ye keep , and have done them,
4
then I have given your rains in their season, and the land hath given her produce, and the tree of the field doth give its fruit ;
5
and reached to you hath the threshing, the gathering, and the gathering doth reach the sowing-[time]; and ye have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land .
6
`And I have given peace in the land , and ye have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land , and the sword doth not pass over into your land .
7
`And ye have pursued your enemies , and they have fallen before you by the sword ;
8
and five of you have pursued a hundred , and a hundred of you do pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword .
9
`And I have turned unto you, and have made you fruitful , and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;
10
and ye have eaten old [store], and the old because of the new ye bring out.
11
`And I have given My tabernacle in your midst , and My soul doth not loathe you;
12
and I have walked habitually in your midst , and have become your God , and ye -- ye are become My people;
13
I [am] Jehovah your God , who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians , from being their servants ; and I break the bars of your yoke, and cause you to go erect.
14
`And if ye do not hearken to Me, and do not all these commands;
15
and if at My statutes ye kick, and if My judgments your soul loathe , so as not to do all My commands -- to your breaking My covenant --
16
I also do this to you, and I have appointed over you trouble, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes , and causing pain of soul ; and your seed in vain ye have sowed, and your enemies have eaten it;
17
and I have set My face against you, and ye have been smitten before your enemies ; and those hating you have ruled over you, and ye have fled , and there is none pursuing you.
18
`And if unto these ye hearken not to Me, -- then I have added to chastise you seven times for your sins ;
19
and I have broken the pride of your strength , and have made your heavens as iron , and your earth as brass ;
20
and consumed hath been your strength in vain, and your land doth not give her produce, and the tree of the land doth not give its fruit .
21
`And if ye walk with Me [in] opposition, and are not willing to hearken to Me, then I have added to you a plague seven times, according to your sins ,
22
and sent against you the beast of the field , and it hath bereaved you; and I have cut off your cattle, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.
23
`And if by these ye are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me [in] opposition,
24
then I have walked -- I also -- with you in opposition, and have smitten you, even I, seven times for your sins ;
25
and I have brought in on you a sword , executing the vengeance of a covenant; and ye have been gathered unto your cities , and I have sent pestilence into your midst , and ye have been given into the hand of an enemy .
26
`In My breaking to you the staff of bread , then ten women have baked your bread in one oven , and have given back your bread by weight; and ye have eaten , and are not satisfied .
27
`And if for this ye hearken not to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,
28
then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have chastised you, even I, seven times for your sins .
29
`And ye have eaten the flesh of your sons; even flesh of your daughters ye do eat .
30
And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images , and have put your carcases on the carcases of your idols , and My soul hath loathed you;
31
and I have made your cities a waste, and have made desolate your sanctuaries, and I smell not at your sweet fragrances ;
32
and I have made desolate the land , and your enemies , who are dwelling in it, have been astonished at it.
33
And you I scatter among nations , and have drawn out after you a sword , and your land hath been a desolation, and your cities are a waste.
34
`Then doth the land enjoy its sabbaths -- all the days of the desolation, and ye in the land of your enemies -- then doth the land rest, and hath enjoyed its sabbaths ;
35
all the days of the desolation it resteth that which it hath not rested in your sabbaths in your dwelling on it.
36
`And those who are left of you -- I have also brought a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies , and the sound of a leaf driven away hath pursued them, and they have fled -- flight from a sword -- and they have fallen , and there is none pursuing .
37
And they have stumbled one on another, as from the face of a sword , and there is none pursuing , and ye have no standing before your enemies ,
38
and ye have perished among the nations , and the land of your enemies hath consumed you.
39
`And those who are left of you -- they consume away in their iniquity , in the lands of your enemies ; and also in the iniquities of their fathers , with them they consume away.
40
`And -- they have confessed their iniquity , and the iniquity of their fathers , in their trespass which they have trespassed against Me, and also, that they have walked with Me, in opposition,
41
also I walk to them in opposition, and have brought them into the land of their enemies -- or then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept the punishment of their iniquity , --
42
then I have remembered My covenant [with] Jacob , and also My covenant [with] Isaac , and also My covenant [with] Abraham I remember , and the land I remember .
43
`And -- the land is left of them, and doth enjoy its sabbaths , in the desolation without them, and they accept the punishment of their iniquity , because, even because, against My judgments they have kicked, and My statutes hath their soul loathed,
44
and also even this, in their being in the land of their enemies , I have not rejected them, nor have I loathed them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I [am] Jehovah their God ; --
45
then I have remembered for them the covenant of the ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to become their God ; I [am] Jehovah .'
46
These [are] the statutes , and the judgments , and the laws , which Jehovah hath given between Him and the sons of Israel , in mount Sinai , by the hand of Moses .
