27
But if you will not for all this hearken to me, but will walk against me
28
I will also go against you with opposite fury: and I will chastise you with seven plagues for your sins,
29
So that you shall eat the flesh of your sons and of your daughters.
30
I will destroy your high places, and break your idols. You shall fall among the ruins of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
31
Insomuch that I will bring your cities to be a wilderness: and I will make your sanctuaries desolate: and will receive no more your sweet odours.
32
And I will destroy your land: and your enemies shall be astonished at it, when they shall be the inhabitants thereof.
33
And I will scatter you among the Gentiles: and I will draw out the sword after you. And your land shall be desert, and your cities destroyed.
34
Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths all the days of her desolation. When you shall be
35
In the enemy’s land, she shall keep a sabbath, and rest in the sabbaths of her desolation: because she did not rest in your sabbaths, when you dwelt therein.
36
And as to them that shall remain of you I will send fear in their hearts in the countries of their enemies. The sound of a flying leaf shall terrify them: and they shall flee as it were from the sword. They shall fall, when no man pursueth them.
37
And they shall every one fall upon their brethren as fleeing from wars: none of you shall dare to resist your enemies.
38
You shall perish among the Gentiles: and an enemy’s land shall consume you.
39
And if of them also some remain, they shall pine away in their iniquities, in the land of their enemies: and they shall be afflicted for the sins of their fathers, and their own.
40
Until they confess their iniquities, and the iniquities of their ancestors, whereby they have transgressed against me, and walked contrary unto me.
41
Therefore I also will walk against them, and bring them into their enemies’ land until their uncircumcised mind be ashamed. Then shall they pray for their sins.
42
And I will remember my covenant, that I made with Jacob, and Isaac, and Abraham. I will remember also the land:
43
Which when she shall be left by them, shall enjoy her sabbaths, being desolate for them. But they shall pray for their sins, because they rejected my judgments, and despised my laws.
44
And yet for all that when they were in the land of their enemies, I did not cast them off altogether. Neither did I so despise them that they should be quite consumed: and I should make void my covenant with them. For I am the Lord their God.
45
And I will remember my former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, in the sight of the Gentiles, to be their God. I am the Lord.
