if they break my statutes, and don't keep my mitzvot;
but my loving kindness shall not depart from him, as I took it from Sha'ul, whom I put away before you.
But if you shall turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my mitzvot and my statutes which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
we have dealt very corruptly against you, and have not kept the mitzvot, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances, which you commanded your servant Moshe.
He raises his hands against his friends. He has violated his covenant.
If you forsake the LORD, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you evil, and consume you, after that he has done you good.
