| 26:1 | Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up [any] image of stone in your land, to bow down to it: for I [am] the LORD your God. |
| 26:2 | Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I [am] the LORD. |
| 26:3 | If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; |
| 26:4 | Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. |
| 26:5 | And your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely. |
| 26:6 | And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make [you] afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land. |
| 26:7 | And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. |
| 26:8 | And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword. |
| 26:9 | For I will have respect to you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you. |

| 26:13 | I [am] the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their slaves; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright. |
| 26:14 | But if ye will not hearken to me, and will not do all these commandments; |
| 26:15 | And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul shall abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, [but] that ye break my covenant: |
| 26:16 | I also will do this to you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning fever, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. |
| 26:17 | And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you. |
| 26:18 | And if ye will not yet for all this hearken to me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins. |
| 26:19 | And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass: |
| 26:20 | And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits. |
| 26:21 | And if ye shall walk contrary to me, and will not hearken to me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins. |
| 26:22 | I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your [high] ways shall be desolate. |
| 26:23 | And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary to me; |
| 26:24 | Then will I also walk contrary to you, and I will punish you yet seven times for your sins. |
| 26:25 | And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of [my] covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy. |
| 26:26 | [And] when I have broke the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver [you] your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied. |
| 26:27 | And if ye will not for all this hearken to me, but walk contrary to me; |
| 26:28 | Then I will walk contrary to you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins. |
| 26:29 | And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat. |
| 26:30 | And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your remains upon the remains of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you. |
| 26:31 | And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours. |
| 26:32 | And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. |

| 26:34 | Then shall the land enjoy its sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye [are] in your enemies' land; [even] then shall the land rest, and enjoy its sabbaths. |
| 26:35 | As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it. |
| 26:36 | And upon them that are left [alive] of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth. |
| 26:37 | And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies. |
| 26:38 | And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up. |
| 26:39 | And they that 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. |
| 26:40 | If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary to me; |
| 26:41 | And [that] I also have walked contrary to them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts shall be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity: |
| 26:42 | Then 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. |
| 26:43 | The land also shall be left by them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity: because, even because they despised my judgments, and because their soul abhorred my statutes. |
| 26:44 | And yet for all that, when they shall be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I [am] the LORD their God. |
| 26:45 | But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I [am] the LORD. |
| 26:46 | These [are] the statutes and judgments and laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses. |
