Leviticus 26:3-20
From Garrett – AA’ contrast
blessings and cursings.
A.(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. (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.
B.(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.
C.(11) And I
will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall
not abhor you.
D.(12) And I
will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
E.(13)
I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt,
D’. that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have
broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
C’.(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,
B’. but that
ye break my covenant: I also will
do this unto you;
A’.(16) 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. (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.

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.
B’.(14) But

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:
A’. IF YOU DON’T WALK IN MY
STATUTES v 16 – 33
Leviticus 26:32-35
1A.(32) And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which
dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
1B.(33) And
I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you:
1A’. and your land shall be desolate,
and your cities waste.
2A.(34) Then shall the land enjoy
her sabbaths,
2B. as long as it lieth desolate,
and ye be in your enemies’ land;
2C.
even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths.
2B’.(35) As long as it lieth desolate
it shall rest;
2A’. because it did not rest in your
sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
Leviticus 26:40-44
A.(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;
B. if then
their uncircumcised
hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
C.(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.
B’.(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.
A’.(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:
