Leviticus 26 — Context

20

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.

21

And if you still go against me and will not give ear to me, I will put seven times more punishments on you because of your sins.

22

I will let loose the beasts of the field among you, and they will take away your children and send destruction on your cattle, so that your numbers will become small and your roads become waste.

23

And if by these things you will not be turned to me, but still go against me;

24

Then I will go against you, and I will give you punishment, I myself, seven times for all your sins.

25

And I will send a sword on you to give effect to the punishment of my agreement; and when you come together into your towns I will send disease among you and you will be given up into the hands of your haters.

26

When I take away your bread of life, ten women will be cooking bread in one oven, and your bread will be measured out by weight; you will have food but never enough.
