Douay Bible - Leviticus Chapter 26

Leviticus 26:1
I am the Lord your God: you shall not make to yourselves any idol or graven thing, neither shall you erect pillars, nor set up a remarkable stone in your land, to adore it: for I am the Lord your God.

Leviticus 26:2
Keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.

Leviticus 26:3
If you walk in my precepts, and keep my commandments, and do them, I will give you rein in due seasons.

Leviticus 26:4
And the ground shall bring forth its increase, and the trees shall be filled with fruit.

Leviticus 26:5
The threshing of your harvest shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land without fear.

Leviticus 26:6
I will give peace in your coasts: you shall sleep, and there shall be none to make you afraid. I will take away evil beasts: and the sword shall not pass through your quarters.

Leviticus 26:7
You shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you.

Leviticus 26:8
Five of yours shall pursue a hundred others, and a hundred of you ten thousand: your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

Leviticus 26:9
I will look on you, and make you increase: you shell be multiplied, and I will establish my covenant with you.

Leviticus 26:10
You shall eat the oldest of the old store, and, new coming on, you shall cast away the old.

Leviticus 26:11
I will set my tabernacle in the midst of you, and my soul shall not cast you off.

Leviticus 26:12
I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people.

Leviticus 26:13
I am the Lord your God: who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that you should not serve them, and who have broken the chains of your necks, that you might go upright.

Leviticus 26:14
But if you will not hear me, nor do all my commandments,

Leviticus 26:15
If you despise my laws, and contemn my judgments so as not to do those things which are appointed by me, and to make void my covenant:

Leviticus 26:16
I also will do these things to you: I will quickly visit you with poverty, and burning heat, which shall waste your eyes, and consume your lives. You shall sow your seed in vain, which shall be devoured by your enemies.

Leviticus 26:17
I will set my face against you, and you shall fall down before your enemies, and shall be made subject to them that hate you, you shall flee when no man pursueth you.

Leviticus 26:18
But if you will not yet for all this obey me: I will chastise you seven times more for your sins,

Leviticus 26:19
And I will break the pride of your stubbornness, and I will make to you the heaven above as iron, and the earth as brass:

Leviticus 26:20
Your labour shall be spent in vain, the ground shall not bring forth her increase, nor the trees yield their fruit.

Leviticus 26:21
If you walk contrary to me, and will not hearken to me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you for your sins:

Leviticus 26:22
And I will send in upon you the beasts of the held, to destroy you and your cattle, and make you few in number, and that your highways may be desolate.

Leviticus 26:23
And if even so you will not amend, but will walk contrary to me:

Leviticus 26:24
I also will walk contrary to you, and will strike you seven times for your sins.

Leviticus 26:25
And I will bring in upon you the sword that shall avenge my covenant. And when you shall flee into the cities, I will send the pestilence in the midst of you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies,

Leviticus 26:26
After I shall have broken the staff of your bread: so that ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and give it out by weight: and you shall eat, and shall not be filled.

Leviticus 26:27
But if you will not for all this hearken to me, but will walk against me:

Leviticus 26:28
I will also go against you with opposite fury, and I will chastise you with seven plagues for your sins,

Leviticus 26:29
So that you shall eat the flesh of your sons and of your daughters.

Leviticus 26:30
I will destroy your high places, and break your idols. You shall fall among the ruins of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.

Leviticus 26:31
Insomuch that I will bring your cities to be a wilderness, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and will receive no more your sweet odours.

Leviticus 26:32
And I will destroy your land, and your enemies shall be astonished at it, when they shall be the inhabitants thereof.

Leviticus 26:33
And I will scatter you among the Gentiles, and I will draw out the sword after you, and your land shall be desert, and your cities destroyed.

Leviticus 26:34
Then shell the land enjoy her sabbaths all the days of her desolation: when you shall be

Leviticus 26:35
In the enemy’s land, she shall keep a sabbath, and rest in the sabbaths of her desolation, because she did not rest in your sabbaths when you dwelt therein.

Leviticus 26:36
And as to them that shall remain of you I will send fear in their hearts in the countries of their enemies, the sound of a flying leaf shall terrify them, and they shall flee as it were from the sword: they shall fall, when no man pursueth them,

Leviticus 26:37
And they shall every one fall upon their brethren as fleeing from wars, none of you shall dare to resist your enemies.

Leviticus 26:38
You shall perish among the Gentiles, and an enemy’s land shall consume you.

Leviticus 26:39
And if of them also some remain, they shall pine away in their iniquities, in the land of their enemies, and they shall be afflicted for the sins of their fathers, and their own:

Leviticus 26:40
Until they confess their iniquities and the iniquities of their ancestors, whereby they have transgressed me, and walked contrary unto me.

Leviticus 26:41
Therefore I also will walk them, and bring them into their enemies’ land until their uncircumcised mind be ashamed: then shall they pray for their sins.

Leviticus 26:42
And I will remember my covenant, that I made with Jacob, and Isaac, and Abraham. I will remember also the land:

Leviticus 26:43
Which when she shall be left by them, shall enjoy her sabbaths, being desolate for them. But they shall pray for their sins, because they rejected my judgments, and despised my laws.

Leviticus 26:44
And yet for all that when they were in the land of their enemies, I did not cast them off altogether, neither did I so despise them that they should be quite consumed, and I should make void my covenant with them. For I am the Lord their God.

Leviticus 26:45
And I will remember my former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, in the sight of the Gentiles, to be their God. I am the Lord. These are the judgments, and precepts, and laws, which the Lord gave between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

Introduction to the Douay-Rheims Bible

The Douay-Rheims Bible is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate, a 4th-century Latin translation of the Bible. It was published in the late 16th and early 17th centuries for English-speaking Catholics. The New Testament was published in 1582 and the Old Testament in 1609-10. It is considered one of the most influential English Bibles of the time. The Douay-Rheims Bible differs from other versions in several ways: Translation source: Unlike many other English Bibles that were translated from the original Greek and Hebrew texts, the Douay-Rheims was translated from the Latin Vulgate, which was the standard version of the Bible for the Catholic Church for many centuries. Language: The Douay-Rheims uses an archaic form of English, making it difficult for modern readers to understand. Theology: The Douay-Rheims reflects the theology of the Catholic Church, including its views on the authority of the Pope and the sacraments. Footnotes and commentary: The Douay-Rhe...
