You must obey my Sabbath laws of rest, and reverence my Tabernacle, for I am the Lord.

“If you obey all of my commandments, 4-5 I will give you regular rains, and the land will yield bumper crops, and the trees will be loaded with fruit long after the normal time![a] And grapes will still be ripening when sowing time comes again. You shall eat your fill, and live safely in the land, for I will give you peace, and you will go to sleep without fear. I will chase away the dangerous animals. You will chase your enemies; they will die beneath your swords. Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you, ten thousand! You will defeat all of your enemies. I will look after you, and multiply you, and fulfill my covenant with you. 10 You will have such a surplus of crops that you won’t know what to do with them when the new harvest is ready! 11 And I will live among you and not despise you. 12 I will walk among you and be your God, and you shall be my people. 13 For I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would be slaves no longer; I have broken your chains so that you can walk with dignity.[b]
