37. They will stumble over each other as they would before a sword, even though no one is chasing them! You will have no power to stand before your enemies.
38. You will disappear among the nations—the land of your enemies will devour you.
39. Any of you who do survive will rot in enemy territory on account of their guilty deeds. And they will rot too on account of their ancestors’ guilty deeds.
40. But if they confess their and their ancestors’ guilt for the wrongdoing they did to me, and for their continued opposition to me—
41. which made me oppose them, so I took them into enemy territory—or if their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they make up for their guilt,
42. then I will remember my covenant with Jacob. I will also remember my covenant with Isaac. And my covenant with Abraham. And I will remember the land.
