39 (A)So those of you who may remain will rot away in their iniquity in the lands of your enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers they will rot away with them.

40 (B)If they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against Me, and also how they walked in hostility against Me— 41 I also was walking in hostility against them, to bring them into the land of their enemies—(C)or if their uncircumcised heart becomes humbled so that (D)they then make up for their iniquity, 42 then I will remember (E)My covenant with Jacob, and I will remember also (F)My covenant with Isaac and (G)My covenant with Abraham as well, and I will remember the land. 43 (H)For the land will be forsaken by them and will make up for its sabbaths while it is made desolate without them. They, meanwhile, will be making up for their iniquity [a]because they rejected My judgments and their (I)soul loathed My statutes. 44 Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, nor will I so (J)loathe them as (K)to bring an end to them, (L)breaking My covenant with them; for I am Yahweh their God. 45 But I will remember for them the (M)covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that (N)I might be their God. I am Yahweh.’”

46 (O)These are the statutes and judgments and laws which Yahweh has given to be between Himself and the sons of Israel by the hand of Moses at Mount Sinai.

  1. Leviticus 26:43 Lit because and by the cause

39 Those of you who are left will waste away in the lands of their enemies because of their sins; also because of their ancestors’(A) sins they will waste away.(B)

40 “‘But if they will confess(C) their sins(D) and the sins of their ancestors(E)—their unfaithfulness and their hostility toward me, 41 which made me hostile(F) toward them so that I sent them into the land of their enemies—then when their uncircumcised hearts(G) are humbled(H) and they pay(I) for their sin, 42 I will remember my covenant with Jacob(J) and my covenant with Isaac(K) and my covenant with Abraham,(L) and I will remember the land. 43 For the land will be deserted(M) by them and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them. They will pay for their sins because they rejected(N) my laws and abhorred my decrees.(O) 44 Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies,(P) I will not reject them or abhor(Q) them so as to destroy them completely,(R) breaking my covenant(S) with them. I am the Lord their God. 45 But for their sake I will remember(T) the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought out of Egypt(U) in the sight of the nations to be their God. I am the Lord.’”

46 These are the decrees, the laws and the regulations that the Lord established at Mount Sinai(V) between himself and the Israelites through Moses.(W)
