Leviticus 26:1-13 - Blessings For Obedience

1 Do not make idols or set up statues, stone pillars, or carved stones to worship. I am Jehovah your God! 2 Keep the religious festivals and honor the place where I am worshiped. I am Jehovah.

3 If you live according to my laws and obey my commands, 4 I will send you rain at the proper time. Then the land will produce crops and the trees will bear fruit. 5 Your crops will be so plentiful that you will still be harvesting grain when it is time to pick grapes. You will still be picking grapes when it is time to plant grain. You will have all you want to eat and you will live in safety in your land. 6 I will give you peace in your land. You can sleep without being afraid of anyone. I will get rid of the dangerous animals in the land. And there will be no more war there. 7 You will be victorious over your enemies. 8 Five of you will be able to defeat a hundred, and a hundred will be able to defeat ten thousand.

9 I will bless you and give you many children. I will keep my part of the covenant that I made with you. 10 Your harvests will be so plentiful that they will last for a year. Even after that you will have to throw away what is left of the old harvest to make room for the new! 11 I will live among you in my sacred tent, and I will never turn away from you. 12 So I will live among you and be your God, and you will be my people. 13 I am Jehovah your God. I brought you out of Egypt so that you are no longer slaves of the Egyptians. I have broken their power over you and made you live as a free people.
