2. You must keep My Sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am Yahweh.
3. “If you follow My statutes and faithfully observe My commands,
4. I will give you rain at the right time, and the land will yield its produce, and the trees of the field will bear their fruit.
5. Your threshing will continue until grape harvest, and the grape harvest will continue until sowing time; you will have plenty of food to eat and live securely in your land.
6. I will give peace to the land, and you will lie down with nothing to frighten you. I will remove dangerous animals from the land, and no sword will pass through your land.
7. You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall before you by the sword.
8. Five of you will pursue 100, and 100 of you will pursue 10,000; your enemies will fall before you by the sword.
9. “I will turn to you, make you fruitful and multiply you, and confirm My covenant with you.
10. You will eat the old grain of the previous year and will clear out the old to make room for the new.
11. I will place My residence among you, and I will not reject you.
12. I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be My people.
13. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would no longer be their slaves. I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to live in freedom.
14. “But if you do not obey Me and observe all these commands —
15. if you reject My statutes and despise My ordinances, and do not observe all My commands — and break My covenant,
16. then I will do this to you: I will bring terror on you — wasting disease and fever that will cause your eyes to fail and your life to ebb away. You will sow your seed in vain because your enemies will eat it.
17. I will turn against you, so that you will be defeated by your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee even though no one is pursuing you.
18. “But if after these things you will not obey Me, I will proceed to discipline you seven times for your sins.
