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# unto it: for I
am the LORD your God.
[standing...: or, pillar]
[image of...: or, figured stone: Heb. a stone of picture]
|
|
|
|
2
|
Ye shall keep# my sabbaths, and reverence# my sanctuary: I
am the LORD.
|
|
|
|
3
|
If ye walk# in my statutes, and keep# my commandments, and do# them;
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
5
|
And your threshing shall reach# unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach# unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat# your bread to the full, and dwell# in your land safely.
|
|
|
|
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.
[rid: Heb. cause to cease]
|
|
|
|
7
|
And ye shall chase# your enemies# , and they shall fall# before you by the sword.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
9
|
For I will have respect# unto you, and make you fruitful# , and multiply# you, and establish# my covenant with you.
|
|
|
|
10
|
And ye shall eat# old store# , and bring forth# the old because of the new.
|
|
|
|
11
|
And I will set# my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor# you.
|
|
|
|
12
|
And I will walk# among you, and will be# your God, and ye shall be# my people.
|
|
|
|
13
|
I
am the LORD your God, which brought you forth# out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken# the bands of your yoke, and made you go# upright.
|
|
|
|
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.
[over: Heb. upon]
|
|
|
|
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.
[contrary...: or, at all adventures with me]
|
|
|
|
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# .
[shaken: Heb. driven]
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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 unto me;
|
|
|
|
41
|
And
that I also have walked# contrary unto them, and have brought# them into the land of their enemies# ; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled# , and they then accept# of the punishment of their iniquity:
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
43
|
The land also shall be left# of 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.
|
|
|
|
44
|
And yet for all that, when they 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.
|
|
|
|
45
|
But I will for their sakes remember# the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth# out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I
am the LORD.
|
|
|
|
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.
