Leviticus 26:1-13

Leviticus 26:1-13 NCV

“ ‘Don’t make idols for yourselves or set up statues or memorials. Don’t put stone statues in your land to bow down to, because I am the LORD your God. “ ‘Remember my Sabbaths, and respect my Holy Place. I am the LORD. “ ‘If you remember my laws and commands and obey them, I will give you rains at the right season; the land will produce crops, and the trees of the field will produce their fruit. Your threshing will continue until the grape harvest, and your grape harvest will continue until it is time to plant. Then you will have plenty to eat and live safely in your land. I will give peace to your country; you will lie down in peace, and no one will make you afraid. I will keep harmful animals out of your country, and armies will not pass through it. “ ‘You will chase your enemies and defeat them, killing them with your sword. Five of you will chase a hundred men; a hundred of you will chase ten thousand men. You will defeat your enemies and kill them with your sword. “ ‘Then I will show kindness to you and let you have many children; I will keep my agreement with you. You will have enough crops to last for more than a year. When you harvest the new crops, you will have to throw out the old ones to make room for them. Also I will place my Holy Tent among you, and I will not turn away from you. I will walk with you and be your God, and you will be my people. I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, where you were slaves. I broke the heavy weights that were on your shoulders and let you walk proudly again.
