Leviticus 26:34–43

³⁴‘^aThen the land will ¹enjoy its sabbaths all the days of the desolation, while you are in your enemies’ land; then the land will rest and enjoy its sabbaths.

³⁵‘All the days of its desolation it will observe the rest which it did not observe on your sabbaths, while you were living on it.

³⁶‘As for those of you who may be left, I will also bring ^aweakness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies. And the sound of a driven leaf will chase them, and even when no one is pursuing they will flee ¹as though from the sword, and they will fall.

³⁷‘^aThey will therefore stumble over each other as if running from the sword, although no one is pursuing; and you will have no strength ¹to stand up before your enemies.

³⁸‘But ^ayou will perish among the nations, and your enemies’ land will consume you.

³⁹‘^aSo those of you who may be left will rot away because of their iniquity in the lands of your enemies; and also because of the iniquities of their forefathers they will rot away with them.

⁴⁰‘^aIf they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their forefathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against Me, and also in their acting with hostility against Me—

⁴¹I also was acting with hostility against them, to bring them into the land of their enemies—^aor if their uncircumcised heart becomes humbled so that ^bthey then make amends for their iniquity,

⁴²then I will remember ^aMy covenant with Jacob, and I will remember also ^bMy covenant with Isaac, and ^cMy covenant with Abraham as well, and I will remember the land.

⁴³‘^aFor the land will be abandoned by them, and will make up for its sabbaths while it is made desolate without them. They, meanwhile, will be making amends for their iniquity, ¹because they rejected My ordinances and their ^bsoul abhorred My statutes.
