Leviticus 18:1-5

Statutes on the Nakedness of Relatives

Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘^aI am Yahweh your God. 3 You shall not do according to what is ^adone in the land of Egypt where you lived, nor are you to do according to what is ^bdone in the land of Canaan where I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes. 4 You are to do My judgments and keep My statutes, to walk in them; ^aI am Yahweh your God. 5 So you shall keep My statutes and My judgments, ^awhich if a man does them, he shall live by them; I am Yahweh.

Leviticus 19:37

« Lev 18Lev 19Lev 20 »

37 You shall thus keep all My statutes and all My judgments and do them; I am Yahweh.’”

Leviticus 26:1-4

He Walks Among Those Who Walk in His Statutes

‘You shall not make for yourselves ¹^aidols, nor shall you set up for yourselves ^ba graven image or ^ca sacred pillar, nor shall you ²place a ^dcarved stone in your land to bow down ³to it; for I am Yahweh your God. 2 ^aYou shall keep My sabbaths and fear My sanctuary; I am Yahweh. 3 ^aIf you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments so as to do them, 4 then ^aI 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.

Leviticus 26:13-16

« Lev 25Lev 26Lev 27 »

13 ^aI am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so that you would not be their slaves, and ^bI broke the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect.

Reject His Statutes and He Will Strike You

14 ‘^aBut if you do not obey Me and do not do all these commandments, 15 if, instead, you ^areject My statutes, and if your soul loathes My judgments so as not to do all My commandments and so ^bbreak My covenant, 16 I, in turn, will do this to you: I will appoint over you a ^asudden terror, consumption and fever that will waste away the eyes and cause the ^bsoul to pine away; also, ^cyou will sow your seed uselessly, for your enemies will eat it up.
