New International Version
3 “‘If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey(A) my commands, 4 I will send you rain(B) in its season,(C) and the ground will yield its crops and the trees their fruit.(D) 5 Your threshing will continue until grape harvest and the grape harvest will continue until planting, and you will eat all the food you want(E) and live in safety in your land.(F)
6 “‘I will grant peace in the land,(G) and you will lie down(H) and no one will make you afraid.(I) I will remove wild beasts(J) from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. 7 You will pursue your enemies,(K) and they will fall by the sword before you. 8 Five(L) of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.(M)
9 “‘I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers,(N) and I will keep my covenant(O) with you. 10 You will still be eating last year’s harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new.(P) 11 I will put my dwelling place[a](Q) among you, and I will not abhor you.(R) 12 I will walk(S) among you and be your God,(T) and you will be my people.(U) 13 I am the Lord your God,(V) who brought you out of Egypt(W) so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians; I broke the bars of your yoke(X) and enabled you to walk with heads held high.
Punishment for Disobedience
14 “‘But if you will not listen to me and carry out all these commands,(Y) 15 and if you reject my decrees and abhor my laws(Z) and fail to carry out all my commands and so violate my covenant,(AA) 16 then I will do this to you: I will bring on you sudden terror, wasting diseases and fever(AB) that will destroy your sight and sap your strength.(AC) You will plant seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.(AD) 17 I will set my face(AE) against you so that you will be defeated(AF) by your enemies;(AG) those who hate you will rule over you,(AH) and you will flee even when no one is pursuing you.(AI)
18 “‘If after all this you will not listen to me,(AJ) I will punish(AK) you for your sins seven times over.(AL) 19 I will break down your stubborn pride(AM) and make the sky above you like iron and the ground beneath you like bronze.(AN) 20 Your strength will be spent in vain,(AO) because your soil will not yield its crops, nor will the trees of your land yield their fruit.(AP)
21 “‘If you remain hostile(AQ) toward me and refuse to listen to me, I will multiply your afflictions seven times over,(AR) as your sins deserve. 22 I will send wild animals(AS) against you, and they will rob you of your children, destroy your cattle and make you so few(AT) in number that your roads will be deserted.(AU)
23 “‘If in spite of these things you do not accept my correction(AV) but continue to be hostile toward me, 24 I myself will be hostile(AW) toward you and will afflict you for your sins seven times over. 25 And I will bring the sword(AX) on you to avenge(AY) the breaking of the covenant. When you withdraw into your cities, I will send a plague(AZ) among you, and you will be given into enemy hands. 26 When I cut off your supply of bread,(BA) ten women will be able to bake your bread in one oven, and they will dole out the bread by weight. You will eat, but you will not be satisfied.
27 “‘If in spite of this you still do not listen to me(BB) but continue to be hostile toward me, 28 then in my anger(BC) I will be hostile(BD) toward you, and I myself will punish you for your sins seven times over.(BE)

Leviticus 26:3-28
King James Version
Leviticus 26:3-28
King James Version
3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
5 And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
8 And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
9 For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
10 And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new.
11 And I set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
13 I am the Lord your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
14 But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
15 And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:
16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
17 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.
18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19 And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
20 And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
21 And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.
22 I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate.
23 And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me;
24 Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
25 And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26 And when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
