Leviticus 26:34–43

³⁴“Then the land shall enjoyⁿ its Sabbath years as long as it lies desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies; then the land shall rest and enjoy^o its Sabbath years.^{* 35}As long as it lies desolate, it shall have the rest it did not have on your Sabbaths when you were living on it. ³⁶And as for those of you who survive, I will send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; the sound of a driven leaf shall put them to flight, and they shall flee as one flees from the sword, and they shall fall though no one pursues.^{* 37}They shall stumble over one another, as if to escape a sword, though no one pursues, and you shall have no power to stand against your enemies.^{* 38}You shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall devour you.^{* 39}And those of you who survive shall languish in the land of your enemies because of their iniquities; they shall also languish because of the iniquities of their ancestors.^*

⁴⁰“But if they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their ancestors—their treachery against me and also their continued hostility to me,^{* 41}so that I in turn was hostile to them and brought them into the land of their enemies—if, then, their uncircumcised heart is humbled and they make amends for their iniquity,^{* 42}then will I remember my covenant with Jacob; I will remember also my covenant with Isaac and also my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.^{* 43}For the land shall be deserted by them and enjoy^p its Sabbath years by lying desolate without them, while they shall make amends for their iniquity, because they dared to spurn my ordinances, and they abhorred my statutes.^*
