Leviticus 26:11
9 I will turn toward you and make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will establish My covenant with you.
10 You will still be eating the old supply of grain when you need to clear it out to make room for the new.
And I will make My dwelling place among you, and My soul will not despise you.
12 I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be My people.
13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians. I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to walk in uprightness.
