Leviticus 26:6-8

Context
26:6 I will grant peace in the land so that 1  you will lie down to sleep without anyone terrifying you. 2  I will remove harmful animals 3  from the land, and no sword of war 4  will pass through your land. 26:7 You will pursue your enemies and they will fall before you by the sword. 5  26:8 Five of you will pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you will pursue ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword.

1 tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.

2 tn Heb “and there will be no one who terrifies.” The words “to sleep” have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “harmful animal,” singular, but taken here as a collective plural (so almost all English versions).

4 tn Heb “no sword”; the words “of war” are supplied in the translation to indicate what the metaphor of the sword represents.

5 tn Heb “to the sword.”
