For I lift H5375 up my hand H3027 to heaven, H8064 and say, H559 I live H2416 for ever. H5769

And say H559 to them, Thus H3541 said H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 In the day H3117 when I chose H977 Israel, H3478 and lifted H5375 up my hand H3027 to the seed H2233 of the house H1004 of Jacob, H3290 and made myself known H3045 to them in the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 when I lifted H5375 up my hand H3027 to them, saying, H559 I am the LORD H3068 your God; H430

And they shall build H1129 houses, H1004 and inhabit H3427 them; and they shall plant H5193 vineyards, H3754 and eat H398 the fruit H6529 of them.

They shall not labor H3021 in vain, H7385 nor H3808 bring H3205 forth H3205 for trouble; H928 for they are the seed H2233 of the blessed H1288 of the LORD, H3068 and their offspring H6631 with them.

I also H637 will do H6213 this H2063 to you; I will even appoint H6485 over you terror, H928 consumption, H7829 and the burning H6920 ague, H6920 that shall consume H3615 the eyes, H5869 and cause sorrow H1727 of heart: H5315 and you shall sow H2232 your seed H2233 in vain, H7385 for your enemies H341 shall eat H398 it.

Your ox H7794 shall be slain H2873 before your eyes, H5869 and you shall not eat H398 thereof: your ass H2543 shall be violently H1497 taken H1497 away from before your face, and shall not be restored H7725 to you: your sheep H6629 shall be given H5414 to your enemies, H341 and you shall have none H369 to rescue H3467 them.

The fruit H6529 of your land, H127 and all H3605 your labors, H3018 shall a nation H5971 which H834 you know H3045 not eat H398 up; and you shall be only H389 oppressed H6231 and crushed H7533 always: H3605

And so it was, when H518 Israel H3478 had sown, H2232 that the Midianites H4080 came H5927 up, and the Amalekites, H6003 and the children H1121 of the east, H6924 even they came H5927 up against H5921 them;

For they came H5927 up with their cattle H4735 and their tents, H168 and they came H935 as grasshoppers H697 for multitude; H7230 for both they and their camels H1581 were without H369 number: H4557 and they entered H935 into the land H776 to destroy H7843 it.

And they shall eat H398 up your harvest, H7105 and your bread, H3899 which your sons H1121 and your daughters H1323 should eat: H398 they shall eat H398 up your flocks H6629 and your herds: H1241 they shall eat H398 up your vines H1612 and your fig H8384 trees: they shall impoverish H7567 your fenced H4013 cities, H5892 wherein H834 H2004 you trusted, H982 with the sword.
