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 10,000.
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, and even then 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. I will be with you; I will be your God, and you will be my people.
13. I, the Lord your God, brought you out of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves. I broke the power that held you down and I let you walk with your head held high.”
14. The Lord said, “If you will not obey my commands, you will be punished.
15. If you refuse to obey my laws and commands and break the covenant I have made with you,
16. I will punish you. I will bring disaster on you — incurable diseases and fevers that will make you blind and cause your life to waste away. You will sow your seed, but it will do you no good, because your enemies will conquer you and eat what you have grown.
17. I will turn against you, so that you will be defeated, and those who hate you will rule over you; you will be so terrified that you will run when no one is chasing you.
18. “If even after all this you still do not obey me, I will increase your punishment seven times.
19. I will break your stubborn pride; there will be no rain, and your land will be dry and as hard as iron.
