Leviticus 26:35-37

International Children’s Bible

³⁵ During the time the land is empty, it will rest. It will have the rest you should have given it while you lived in it.

³⁶ “‘Those who are left alive will lose their courage in the land of their enemies. They will be frightened of everything. They will be frightened by even the sound of a leaf being blown by the wind. They will run as if someone were chasing them with a sword. They will fall even when no one is chasing them. ³⁷ They will run as if someone were chasing them with a sword. They will fall over each other, even though no one is chasing them. You will not be strong enough to stand up against your enemies.
