14
But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
15
And if ye
shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my
commandments,
but
that ye break my covenant:
16
I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint
over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow
of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
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.
18
And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I
will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19
And I will break the pride of your power; and I
will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
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.
21
And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more
plagues upon you according to your sins.
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.
23
And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary
unto me;
24
Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your
sins.
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
And
when I have broken 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.
27
And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary
unto me;
28
Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven
times for your sins.
29
And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall
ye eat.
30
And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases
upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
31
And I will make your cities waste,
and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours.
32
And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished
at it.
33
And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your
land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.
34
Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as
it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies’ land;
even
then shall the land rest, and enjoy her
sabbaths.
35
As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when
ye dwelt upon it.
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.
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.
38
And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you
up.
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.
