Leviticus 26:14–27:34

14 yBut 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, but that ye zbreak my covenant: 16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you aterror, bconsumption, and bthe burning ague, that shall cconsume the eyes, and ccause sorrow of heart: and dye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 17 And eI will set my face against you, and fye shall be slain before your enemies: gthey that hate you shall reign over you; and hye shall flee when none pursueth you. 18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you iseven times more for your sins. 19 And I will break kthe pride of your power; and I lwill make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass: 20 And your mstrength shall be spent in vain: for nyour land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits. 21 And if ye walk ||contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins. 22 oI will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and pyour high ways shall be desolate. 23 And if ye qwill not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me; 24 rThen will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins. 25 sAnd I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, tI will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy. 26 uAnd when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and xye shall eat, and not be satisfied. 27 And yif ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me; 28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also zin fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins. 29 aAnd ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat. 30 And bI will destroy your high places, and cut down your bimages, and ccast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall dabhor you. 31 eAnd I will make your cities waste, and fbring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours. 32 gAnd I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be hastonished at it. 33 And iI will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste. 34 kThen shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies’ land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths. 35 As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your lsabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it. 36 And upon them that are left alive of you mI will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and nthe sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth. 37 And othey shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth: and pye shall have no power to stand before your enemies. 38 And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up. 39 And they that are left of you qshall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them. 40 If they shall rconfess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with stheir 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; if then their tuncircumcised hearts be uhumbled, and they then accept of wthe punishment of their iniquity: 42 Then will I xremember 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. 43 yThe land also shall be left of them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of wthe punishment of their iniquity: because, even because they zdespised my judgments, and because their soul abhorred my statutes. 44 And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, aI will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to bbreak my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God. 45 But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, cwhom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt din the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the Lord. 46 eThese are the statutes and judgments and laws, which the Lord made between him and the children of Israel fin mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

27 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man ashall make a singular vow, the persons shall be for the Lord by bthy estimation. And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, cafter the shekel of the sanctuary. And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels. And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels. And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver. And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels. But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him; daccording to ehis ability that vowed shall the priest value him.

And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the Lord, all that any man giveth of such unto the Lord shall be holy. 10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy. 11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto the Lord, then he shall present the beast before the priest: 12 And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be. 13 fBut if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy estimation.

14 And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the Lord, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand. 15 gAnd if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be his. 16 And if a man shall sanctify unto the Lord some part of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: ||an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If he sanctify his field from the year of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall stand. 18 But if he sanctify his field after the jubile, then the priest shall hreckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation. 19 iAnd if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him. 20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more. 21 But the field, kwhen it goeth out in the jubile, shall be holy unto the Lord, as a field ldevoted; mthe possession thereof shall be the priest’s. 22 And if a man sanctify unto the Lord a field which he hath bought, which is not of the fields of nhis possession; 23 oThen the priest shall reckon unto him pthe worth of thy estimation, even unto the year of the jubile: and he shall give thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing unto the Lord. 24 qIn the year of the jubile the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong. 25 And all thy estimations shall be according to rthe shekel of the sanctuary: stwenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26 Only tthe firstling of the beasts, which should be the Lord’s firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is the Lord’s. 27 And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to thine estimation, uand shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation. 28 xNotwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the Lord. 29 yNone devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.

30 And zall the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s: it is holy unto the Lord. 31 aAnd if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof. 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever bpasseth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord. 33 He shall not search cwhether it be good or bad, cneither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed. 34 dThese are the commandments, which the …
