"If you fear the LORD and serve and obey him and do not rebel against his commands, and if both you and the king who reigns over you follow the LORD your God--good! But if you do not obey the LORD, and if you rebel against his commands, his hand will be against you, as it was against your ancestors."
If you fear the LORD
Joshua 24:14 "Now fear the LORD and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD."
and do not rebel against his commands
Jeremiah 4:17 " 'They surround her like men guarding a field, because she has rebelled against me,' " declares the LORD.
Lamentations 1:18 "The LORD is righteous, yet I rebelled against his command. Listen, all you peoples; look on my suffering. My young men and young women have gone into exile."
But if you do not obey the LORD, and if you rebel against his commands
Leviticus 26:16 " '... then I will do this to you: I will bring on you sudden terror, wasting diseases and fever that will destroy your sight and sap your strength. You will plant seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.' "
Joshua 24:20 "If you forsake the LORD and serve foreign gods, he will turn and bring disaster on you and make an end of you, after he has been good to you."
Isaiah 1:20 "... but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword." For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.
Jeremiah 26:4-6 "Say to them, 'This is what the LORD says: If you do not listen to me and follow my law, which I have set before you, and if you do not listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I have sent to you again and again (though you have not listened), then I will make this house like Shiloh and this city a curse among all the nations of the earth.' "
