Leviticus 26:14-26
Evangelical Heritage Version
14 But if you will not listen to me and do not obey all these commandments, 15 if you reject my regulations and you detest my ordinances so much that you do not obey all my commandments, so that you break my covenant, 16 I in turn will do this to you: I will inflict upon you panic, wasting disease, and fever, which will cause your eyes to fail and your vitality to slip away. You will sow your seed but get no return, for your enemies will eat it. 17 I will set my face against you. You will be beaten by your enemies, and those who hate you will rule over you. You will flee, even though nobody is pursuing you.
18 If, despite these things, you will not listen to me, I will go on to discipline you seven times for your sins. 19 I will break your proud strength and make your sky like iron and your land as hard as bronze, 20 so that your strength will be exhausted without accomplishing anything. Your land will not yield its produce, and the trees on the land will not yield their fruit.
21 If you still remain hostile to me and you are not willing to listen to me, I will multiply the plague against you seven times more according to your sins. 22 I will send against you the wild animals so that they will deprive you of your children and cut off your livestock. They will make you so few that your roads will be deserted.
23 If in spite of all these things you still refuse to be disciplined by me, and you remain hostile to me, 24 I will also remain hostile to you. I will strike you seven times more for your sins. 25 I will bring a sword on you to avenge the covenant. If you withdraw into your towns, I will send an epidemic among you, so that you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy. 26 When I break your supply of bread, ten women will bake your bread in a single oven. They will have to ration[a] your bread, and though you eat, you will not be satisfied.

Lexham English Bible
Punishment for Disobedience
14 “‘But[a] if you do not listen to me and you do not carry out[b] all these commands, 15 and if you reject my statutes and if your inner self[c] abhors my regulations, to not carry out[d] all my commands by your breaking my covenant, 16 I in turn[e] will do this to you: then[f] I will summon onto you horror, the wasting disease, and the fever that wastes eyes and that drains away life; and you shall sow your seed in vain,[g] and your enemies shall eat it. 17 And I will set my face against you, and you shall be defeated before[h] your enemies; and your haters shall rule over you, and you shall flee away, but[i] there shall not be anybody who is pursuing[j] you.
18 “‘And if in spite of these things you do not listen to me, then[k] I will continue to discipline you seven times for your sins. 19 And I will break the pride of your strength; and I will make your heaven like iron[l] and your land like copper. 20 And your strength shall be consumed in vain;[m] and your land shall not give its produce, and the land’s trees shall not give their fruit.
21 “‘And if you go against me in hostility and you are not willing to listen to me, then[n] I will add a plague onto you seven times according to your sins. 22 And I will send wild animals[o] out among you, and they shall make you childless, and they shall cut down your domestic animals, and they shall make you fewer; and your roads shall be desolate.
23 “‘And if you do not accept correction from[p] me through these things, but[q] you go against me in hostility, 24 then[r] I myself[s] will also go against you in hostility, and I myself[t] also will strike you seven times for your sins. 25 And I will bring upon you a sword that seeks vengeance for the covenant, and you shall be gathered to your cities; and I will send a plague in your midst, and you shall be given into the hand of an enemy. 26 At my breaking the supply[u] of bread[v] for you, then[w] ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall return your bread by weight; and you shall eat it, and you shall not be satisfied.
