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 carcasses upon the carcasses 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 aroma of your suave
incense.
32
And I will bring the land into desolation, and your enemies who dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
33
And I will scatter you among the Gentiles and will draw out a sword after you, and your land shall be desolate and your cities waste.
34
Then shall the land rest for her sabbaths all the days that it lies desolate, while you are in your enemies’ land;
even then shall the land rest and enjoy her sabbaths.
35
All the time that it shall be desolate, it shall rest that which it did not rest in your sabbaths when ye dwelt upon it.
36
And upon those that are left
alive of you I will send
such cowardice into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, that the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursue.
37
And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursue; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
38
And ye shall perish among the Gentiles, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
39
And those that are left of you shall pine away for their iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and for the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.
40
And they shall confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers for 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; and then their uncircumcised hearts shall be humbled, and they shall plead because of their iniquity;
42
and I will remember my covenant
with Jacob and likewise my covenant
with Isaac, and also my covenant
with Abraham will I remember, and I will remember the land.
43
That the land shall be without them and shall rest her sabbaths, being desolate because of them; and they shall plead because of their iniquity because they despised my rights and their soul abhorred my statutes.
44
And yet for all that, when they are 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 their God.
45
But I will remember them
because of the old covenant, when I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the Gentiles, that I might be their God: I
am the LORD.
46
These
are the statutes and rights and laws, which the LORD established between him and the sons of Israel in Mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
