Lev. 26:31‑44• 31And I will lay waste your cities, and desolate your sanctuaries, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours.
 32And I will bring the land into desolation, that your enemies who dwell therein may be astonished at it.
 33And I will scatter you among the nations, and will draw out the sword after you; and your land shall be desolation, and your cities waste.
 34Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbaths all the days of her desolation, when ye [are] in your enemies' land; then shall the land rest and enjoy her Sabbaths.
 35All the days of the desolation it shall rest; in which it rested not on your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
 36And as to those that remain of you, I will send faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as one fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth;
 37and they shall stumble one over another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
 38And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
 39And they that remain of you shall waste away through their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also through the iniquities of their fathers shall they waste away with them.
 40And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, through their unfaithfullness wherein they were unfaithful to me, and also that they have walked contrary to me,
 41so [that] I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies. If then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity,
 42I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
 43For the land shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its Sabbaths, when it is in desolation without them; and they shall accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because, they despised my judgments, and their soul despised my statutes.
 44And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not despise them, and will not abhor them, to make an end of them utterly, and to break my covenant with them, for I [am] Jehovah their God. (Lev. 26:31‑44)
