Megillah 14 (2240) 166

אָז תִּרְצֶה הָאָרֶץ אֶת-שַׁבְּתֹתֶיהָ, כֹּל יְמֵי הָשַּׁמָּה, וְאַתֶּם, בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיכֶם; אָז תִּשְׁבַּת הָאָרֶץ, וְהִרְצָת אֶת-שַׁבְּתֹתֶיהָ. כָּל-יְמֵי הָשַּׁמָּה, תִּשְׁבֹּת, אֵת אֲשֶׁר לֹא-שָׁבְתָה בְּשַׁבְּתֹתֵיכֶם, בְּשִׁבְתְּכֶם עָלֶיהָ. וְהַנִּשְׁאָרִים בָּכֶם וְהֵבֵאתִי מֹרֶךְ בִּלְבָבָם, בְּאַרְצֹת אֹיְבֵיהֶם;
וְרָדַף אֹתָם, קוֹל עָלֶה נִדָּף,
וְנָסוּ מְנֻסַת-חֶרֶב
וְנָפְלוּ, וְאֵין רֹדֵף.
וְכָשְׁלוּ אִישׁ-בְּאָחִיו כְּמִפְּנֵי-חֶרֶב, וְרֹדֵף אָיִן;
וְלֹא-תִהְיֶה לָכֶם תְּקוּמָה, לִפְנֵי אֹיְבֵיכֶם.
וַאֲבַדְתֶּם, בַּגּוֹיִם;
וְאָכְלָה אֶתְכֶם, אֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיכֶם.
וְהַנִּשְׁאָרִים בָּכֶם, יִמַּקּוּ בַּעֲו‍ֹנָם, בְּאַרְצֹת, אֹיְבֵיכֶם;
וְאַף בַּעֲו‍ֹנֹת אֲבֹתָם, אִתָּם יִמָּקּוּ.
וְהִתְוַדּוּ אֶת-עֲו‍ֹנָם וְאֶת-עֲו‍ֹן אֲבֹתָם, בְּמַעֲלָם אֲשֶׁר מָעֲלוּ-בִי, וְאַף, אֲשֶׁר-הָלְכוּ עִמִּי בְּקֶרִי. אַף-אֲנִי, אֵלֵךְ עִמָּם בְּקֶרִי, וְהֵבֵאתִי אֹתָם, בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם; אוֹ-אָז יִכָּנַע, לְבָבָם הֶעָרֵל, וְאָז, יִרְצוּ אֶת-עֲו‍ֹנָם. וְזָכַרְתִּי, אֶת-בְּרִיתִי יַעֲקוֹב; וְאַף אֶת-בְּרִיתִי יִצְחָק וְאַף אֶת-בְּרִיתִי אַבְרָהָם, אֶזְכֹּר--וְהָאָרֶץ אֶזְכֹּר. וְהָאָרֶץ תֵּעָזֵב מֵהֶם וְתִרֶץ אֶת-שַׁבְּתֹתֶיהָ, בָּהְשַׁמָּה מֵהֶם, וְהֵם, יִרְצוּ אֶת-עֲו‍ֹנָם; יַעַן וּבְיַעַן--בְּמִשְׁפָּטַי מָאָסוּ, וְאֶת-חֻקֹּתַי גָּעֲלָה נַפְשָׁם.
וְאַף-גַּם-זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם, לֹא-מְאַסְתִּים וְלֹא-גְעַלְתִּים לְכַלֹּתָם--לְהָפֵר בְּרִיתִי, אִתָּם: כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה, אֱלֹהֵיהֶם. וְזָכַרְתִּי לָהֶם, בְּרִית רִאשֹׁנִים: אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִי-אֹתָם מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם לְעֵינֵי הַגּוֹיִם, לִהְיוֹת לָהֶם לֵאלֹהִים--אֲנִי יְהוָה. אֵלֶּה הַחֻקִּים וְהַמִּשְׁפָּטִים, וְהַתּוֹרֹת, אֲשֶׁר נָתַן יְהוָה, בֵּינוֹ וּבֵין בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל--בְּהַר סִינַי, בְּיַד-מֹשֶׁה


Then the land will accept its Sabbaths: all the days of devastation, while you are in your enemies' land. Then the land will cease and accept its Sabbaths. All the days of the desolation it will cease, the amount that it did not cease on your Sabbaths when you lived on it. And those of you who remain:
I shall bring faintness in their hearts in their enemies' lands,
and the sound of a driven leaf will chase them,
and they will flee like the flight from a sword,
and they will fail when there is no one pursuing,
and they will stumble, each over his brother, as in front of a sword,
when there is no one pursuing,
and you will not have a footing in front of your enemies,
and you will perish among the nations,
and your enemies' land will eat you up.
And those of you who remain will rot for their crime in your enemies' lands,
and also for their fathers' crime with them they will rot.
When they will confess their crime and their fathers' crime for their breach that they made against me and also they went on with me in defiance, so I, I also, would go on with them in defiance and I brought them into their enemies' land: or if then their uncircumcised heart will be humbled and they will accept their crime, then I shall remember my covenant of Jacob, and I shall remember also my covenant of Isaac, and also my covenant of Abraham, and I shall remember the land. And the land will be left from them, and it will accept its Sabbaths while it is devastated from them, and they will accept their crime, because and only because they rejected my judgements and their soul scorned my laws.

And even despite this, when they were in their enemies' land I did not reject them, and I did not scorn them, to finish them, to break my covenant with them, because I am YHWH, their God! So I shall remember for them the covenant of the first ones, who I brought out from the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to be a God to them. I am YHWH.

These are the laws and the judgements and the Torah* that YHWH gave between Him and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai by Moses' hand.
