Bible in Basic English
"And my face will be turned from you, and you will be broken before those who are against you, and your haters will become your rulers, and you will go in flight when no man comes after you."
— Leviticus 26:17, Bible in Basic English
“And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.”
But if you do not give ear to me, and do not keep all these my laws;
And if you go against my rules and if you have hate in your souls for my decisions and you do not do all my orders, but go against my agreement;
This will I do to you: I will put fear in your hearts, even wasting disease and burning pain, drying up the eyes and making the soul feeble, and you will get no profit from your seed, for your haters will take it for food.
And my face will be turned from you, and you will be broken before those who are against you, and your haters will become your rulers, and you will go in flight when no man comes after you.
And if, even after these things, you will not give ear to me, then I will send you punishment seven times more for your sins.
And the pride of your strength will be broken, and I will make your heaven as iron and your earth as brass;
And your strength will be used up without profit; for your land will not give her increase and the trees of the field will not give their fruit.
