Leviticus 26:21-30 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

21. “If you still turn against me and refuse to obey me, I will beat you seven times harder! The more you sin, the more you will be punished.

22. I will send wild animals against you. They will take your children away from you. They will destroy your animals. They will kill many of your people. The roads will all be empty.

23. “If you don’t learn your lesson after all this, and if you still turn against me,

24. then I will also turn against you. I—yes, I myself—will punish you seven times for your sins.

25. You will have broken my agreement, so I will punish you. I will bring armies against you. You will go into your cities for safety, but I will cause diseases to spread among you. And your enemies will defeat you.

26. I will give you a share of the grain left in that city. But there will be very little food to eat. Ten women will be able to cook all their bread in one oven. They will measure each piece of bread. You will eat, but you will still be hungry.

27. “If you still refuse to listen to me, and if you still turn against me,

28. then I will really show my anger! I—yes, I myself—will punish you seven times for your sins.

29. You will become so hungry that you will eat the bodies of your sons and daughters.

30. I will destroy your high places. I will cut down your incense altars. I will put your dead bodies on the dead bodies of your idols. You will be disgusting to me.
