“But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;”
King James Version (KJV)
26:12 I will walk among you - As I have hitherto done, both by my pillar of cloud and fire, and by my tabernacle, which have walked or gone along with you in all your journeys, and staid among you in all your stations, to protect, conduct, instruct, and comfort you. And I will own you for that peculiar people which I have singled out of mankind, to bless you here and to save you hereafter.
26:13 Upright - With heads lifted up, not pressed down with a yoke. It notes their liberty, security, confidence and glory.
26:15 Break my covenant - Break your part of that covenant made between me and you, and thereby discharge me from the blessings promised on my part.
26:16 That shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart - Two remarkable effects of this distemper, when it continues long. It eminently weakens the sight, and sinks the spirit. All chronical diseases are here included in the consumption, all acute in the burning ague or fever.
