Leviticus 26:33-39

NSB(i) 33 »‘I will scatter you among the nations. War will follow you. Your country will be in ruins. Your cities will be deserted. 34 »‘Then the land will enjoy its time to honor Jehovah while it lies deserted. You will be in your enemies' land. Then the land will joyfully celebrate its time to honor Jehovah. 35 »‘All the days it lies deserted, it will celebrate the time to honor Jehovah it never celebrated while you lived there. 36 »‘I will fill those who are left in the land of their enemies with despair. The sound of a windblown leaf will make them run. They will run away and fall, but no one will be chasing them. 37 »‘They will stumble over each other. Yet no one will be after them. They will not be able to stand up to their enemies. 38 »‘They will be destroyed among the nations. The land of their enemies will devour them. 39 »‘Those who are left will waste away in the lands of their enemies because of their sins and the sins of their ancestors.
