He Walks Among Those Who Walk in His Statutes

26 ‘You shall not make for yourselves [a](A)idols, nor shall you set up for yourselves (B)a graven image or (C)a sacred pillar, nor shall you [b]place a (D)carved stone in your land to bow down [c]to it; for I am Yahweh your God. (E)You shall keep My sabbaths and fear My sanctuary; I am Yahweh. (F)If you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments so as to do them, then (G)I shall give you rains in their season, so that the land will give forth its produce and the trees of the field will give forth their fruit. (H)Indeed, your threshing will last for you until grape gathering, and grape gathering will last until sowing time. You will thus eat your [d]food to the full and (I)live securely in your land. (J)I shall also give you peace in the land so that (K)you may lie down, with no one making you tremble. (L)I shall also eliminate wild beasts from the land, and (M)no sword will pass through your land. But you will pursue your enemies, and they will fall before you by the sword; (N)and five of you will pursue one hundred, and one hundred of you will pursue ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword. So I will turn toward you and (O)make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will (P)confirm My covenant with you. 10 (Q)And you will eat the old supply and clear out the old because of the new. 11 (R)Moreover, I will [e]make My [f]dwelling among you, and My soul will not loathe you. 12 (S)I will also walk among you and be your God, and you shall be My people. 13 (T)I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so that you would not be their slaves, and (U)I broke the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect.
