Leviticus 26:34–43

³⁴Then the land will enjoy its sabbath years all the time that it lies desolateⁿ and you are in the country of your enemies;^o then the land will rest and enjoy its sabbaths. ³⁵All the time that it lies desolate, the land will have the rest^p it did not have during the sabbaths you lived in it.

³⁶“ ‘As for those of you who are left, I will make their hearts so fearful in the lands of their enemies that the sound of a windblown leaf^q will put them to flight.^r They will run as though fleeing from the sword, and they will fall, even though no one is pursuing them.^{s 37}They will stumble over one another^t as though fleeing from the sword, even though no one is pursuing them. So you will not be able to stand before your enemies.^{u 38}You will perish^v among the nations; the land of your enemies will devour you.^{w 39}Those of you who are left will waste away in the lands of their enemies because of their sins; also because of their ancestors’^x sins they will waste away.^y

⁴⁰“ ‘But if they will confess^z their sins^a and the sins of their ancestors^b—their unfaithfulness and their hostility toward me, ⁴¹which made me hostile^c toward them so that I sent them into the land of their enemies—then when their uncircumcised hearts^d are humbled^e and they pay^f for their sin, ⁴²I will remember my covenant with Jacob^g and my covenant with Isaac^h and my covenant with Abraham,ⁱ and I will remember the land. ⁴³For the land will be deserted^j by them and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them. They will pay for their sins because they rejected^k my laws and abhorred my decrees.^l
