Leviticus 26:35-37

New International Reader's Version

³⁵ The land will rest the whole time it is deserted. It was not able to rest during the sabbaths you lived in it.

³⁶ “ ‘Some of you will be left in the lands of your enemies. I will fill your hearts with fear. The sound of a leaf blown by the wind will scare you away. You will run as if you were escaping from swords. You will fall down, even though no one is chasing you. ³⁷ You will trip over one another as if you were running away from the battle. You will run away, even though no one is chasing you. You will not be able to stand and fight against your enemies.
