If you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments… (26:3) I will give you rain The land will yield its produce The trees of the field will bear fruit You will eat your food to the full I will grant you peace You will chase your enemies I will make you fruitful and multiply you I will dwell with you

If you do not obey Me and carry out all these commandments… (26:14) I will appoint over you a sudden terror, consumption and fever You shall sow your seed uselessly You shall be struck down before your enemies Those who hate you shall rule over you You shall flee when no one is pursuing

If, after these things, you do not obey me… (26:18) I will punish you seven times more I will break down your pride of power Your strength will be spent uselessly Your land will not produce its produce The trees of the land will not yield their fruit

If, then you act with hostility toward Me and are not willing… (26:21) I will increase the plague seven times I will let loose among you the beast of the field They shall bereave you of your children and destroy your cattle

If, by these things you are not turned to Me… (26:23) I will strike you seven times I will bring upon you a sword I will strike you with a pestilence Your bread shall be rationed

If, in spite of this, you do not obey Me… (26:27) I will punish you seven times more You shall eat the flesh of your sons and daughters I will cut down your high places I will lay waste your cities I will make the land desolate I will scatter you among the nations and you will perish among the nations
