DISCIPLINE OF DISOBEDIENCE
And if you hearken not to me and work not all these misvoth; 15 and if you spurn my statutes or if your soul loathes my judgments; so that you work not all my misvoth to break my covenant 16 - I also work this to you: I visit terror over you - emaciation and the burning ague to finish off the eyes; and moping of soul: and you seed your seed in vain for your enemies to eat. 17 And I give my face against you, that you become smitten at the face of your enemies: that they who hate you subjugate you; and that you flee when none pursues you. 18 And if you yet for all this hearken not to me I add to discipline you seven times for your sins: 19 and I break the pomp of your strength; and I give your heavens as iron and your earth as copper: 20 and your force consumes in vain: neither your land gives her produce nor the trees of the land give their fruits. 21 And if you walk contrary to me and hearken not to me; I add seven strokes on you according to your sins: 22 and I send live beings of the field among you to bereave you and cut your animals and diminish you and desolate your ways. 23 And if by these, you are not disciplined by me, and walk contrary to me, 24 then I also walk contrary to you and smite you yet seven for your sins: 25 and I bring a sword on you to avenge the avenging of my covenant: and when you gather to your cities, I send the pestilence among you; that you become given into the hand of the enemy: 26 and in breaking the rod of your bread, ten women bake your bread in one oven and they restore your bread by weight: and you eat and satiate not. 27 And if for all this, you hearken not to me and walk contrary to me; 28 then I also walk contrary to you in fury; and I - yes, I discipline you seven for your sins: 29 and you eat the flesh of your sons and you eat the flesh of your daughters. 30 And I destroy your bamahs and cut down your sun icons and give your carcases on the carcases of your idols that my soul loathe you: 31 and I give your cities as parched areas and desolate your holies and I scent not your scent of rest: 32 and I desolate the land and desolate your enemies who settle therein: 33 and I scatter you among the goyim and draw a sword after you: and desolate your land and parch your cities. 34 Then the land is pleased in her shabbaths as long as it desolates; with you in the land of your enemies; then the land shabbathizes and is pleased in her shabbaths: 35 as long as it desolates, it shabbathizes; because it shabbathizes not in your shabbaths when you settle there. 36 And on those who survive, I send a timidity into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the voice of a driven leaf pursues them; and they flee as retreating from a sword; and they fall when none pursues: 37 and they falter - man to brother as at the face of a sword when none pursues: and you have no resistance at the face of your enemies: 38 and you destruct among the goyim and the land of your enemies eats you: 39 and those of you who survive pine away in their perversity in the lands of your enemies; and also in the perversities of their fathers they pine away with them. 40
THE REWARD FOR WRINGING HANDS
And if they wring hands for their perversity and the perversity of their fathers, and the treason they treason against me and also for walking contrary to me; 41 and that I also, in walking contrary to them bring them into the land of their enemies - if they humble their uncircumcised hearts; and they then be pleased in the punishment of their perversity 42 - then I remember my covenant with Yaaqov and also my covenant with Yischaq and also my covenant with Abraham I remember - and I remember the land. 43 For they forsake the land and are pleased in her shabbaths as she lies desolate without them: and they are pleased in their perversity: because - even because they spurn my judgments and because their soul loathes my statutes. 44 And yes, for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I neither spurn them nor loathe them to finish them off - to break my covenant with them: for I - Yah Veh their Elohim. 45 But I, for their sakes, remember the covenant of their first, whom I brought from the land of Misrayim in the eyes of the goyim, that I become their Elohim: I - Yah Veh. 46 These are the statutes and judgments and torahs Yah Veh gave between him and between the sons of Yisra El in mount Sinay by the hand of Mosheh.
DISCIPLINE OF DISOBEDIENCE
And if you hearken not to me and work not all these misvoth; 15 and if you spurn my statutes or if your soul loathes my judgments; so that you work not all my misvoth to break my covenant 16 - I also work this to you: I visit terror over you - emaciation and the burning ague to finish off the eyes; and moping of soul: and you seed your seed in vain for your enemies to eat. 17 And I give my face against you, that you become smitten at the face of your enemies: that they who hate you subjugate you; and that you flee when none pursues you. 18 And if you yet for all this hearken not to me I add to discipline you seven times for your sins: 19 and I break the pomp of your strength; and I give your heavens as iron and your earth as copper: 20 and your force consumes in vain: neither your land gives her produce nor the trees of the land give their fruits. 21 And if you walk contrary to me and hearken not to me; I add seven strokes on you according to your sins: 22 and I send live beings of the field among you to bereave you and cut your animals and diminish you and desolate your ways. 23 And if by these, you are not disciplined by me, and walk contrary to me, 24 then I also walk contrary to you and smite you yet seven for your sins: 25 and I bring a sword on you to avenge the avenging of my covenant: and when you gather to your cities, I send the pestilence among you; that you become given into the hand of the enemy: 26 and in breaking the rod of your bread, ten women bake your bread in one oven and they restore your bread by weight: and you eat and satiate not. 27 And if for all this, you hearken not to me and walk contrary to me; 28 then I also walk contrary to you in fury; and I - yes, I discipline you seven for your sins: 29 and you eat the flesh of your sons and you eat the flesh of your daughters. 30 And I destroy your bamahs and cut down your sun icons and give your carcases on the carcases of your idols that my soul loathe you: 31 and I give your cities as parched areas and desolate your holies and I scent not your scent of rest: 32 and I desolate the land and desolate your enemies who settle therein: 33 and I scatter you among the goyim and draw a sword after you: and desolate your land and parch your cities. 34 Then the land is pleased in her shabbaths as long as it desolates; with you in the land of your enemies; then the land shabbathizes and is pleased in her shabbaths: 35 as long as it desolates, it shabbathizes; because it shabbathizes not in your shabbaths when you settle there. 36 And on those who survive, I send a timidity into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the voice of a driven leaf pursues them; and they flee as retreating from a sword; and they fall when none pursues: 37 and they falter - man to brother as at the face of a sword when none pursues: and you have no resistance at the face of your enemies: 38 and you destruct among the goyim and the land of your enemies eats you: 39 and those of you who survive pine away in their perversity in the lands of your enemies; and also in the perversities of their fathers they pine away with them. 40
THE REWARD FOR WRINGING HANDS
And if they wring hands for their perversity and the perversity of their fathers, and the treason they treason against me and also for walking contrary to me; 41 and that I also, in walking contrary to them bring them into the land of their enemies - if they humble their uncircumcised hearts; and they then be pleased in the punishment of their perversity 42 - then I remember my covenant with Yaaqov and also my covenant with Yischaq and also my covenant with Abraham I remember - and I remember the land. 43 For they forsake the land and are pleased in her shabbaths as she lies desolate without them: and they are pleased in their perversity: because - even because they spurn my judgments and because their soul loathes my statutes. 44 And yes, for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I neither spurn them nor loathe them to finish them off - to break my covenant with them: for I - Yah Veh their Elohim. 45 But I, for their sakes, remember the covenant of their first, whom I brought from the land of Misrayim in the eyes of the goyim, that I become their Elohim: I - Yah Veh. 46 These are the statutes and judgments and torahs Yah Veh gave between him and between the sons of Yisra El in mount Sinay by the hand of Mosheh.
