Midrasz do Kapłańska 26:5

[(Lev. 26:3:) IF YOU WALK IN MY STATUTES….] This text is related (to Hos. 9:17): GOD³Eloah. Cf. the Masoretic Text, which reads elohay (MY GOD). WILL REJECT THEM BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HEED HIM. The Holy One said: I have said that you would be set in security, as stated (in Amos 9:15): AND WHEN I PLANT THEM IN THEIR LAND, [THEY SHALL NEVER AGAIN BE UPROOTED]….⁴Tanh., Lev. 10:2. When? (Lev.: 26:3, 5:) IF YOU WALK IN MY STATUTES…. YOU SHALL EAT YOUR FILL OF BREAD < AND DWELL SECURELY IN YOUR LAND >. I have so counseled, but you did not so act. Instead (according to II Kings 17:9): THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL ATTRIBUTED THINGS WHICH WERE NOT RIGHT < TO THE LORD THEIR GOD: THEY BUILT THEMSELVES HIGH PLACES IN ALL THEIR CITIES >…. I have also set upon you things which I did not write in the Torah. It is so stated (in Deut. 28:61): MOREOVER < THE LORD WILL BRING UPON YOU > EVERY DISEASE AND EVERY PLAGUE WHICH IS NOT WRITTEN IN {THIS BOOK OF THE TORAH} [THE BOOK OF THIS TORAH]. Now surely [if] you have set [things] on me which were not < right > by me, just as Isaiah said (in Is. 1:4): THEY HAVE FORSAKEN THE LORD; do not say: THEY HAVE FORSAKEN ('ZBW) < ME >, but: They, as it were, have made me worth forsaking ('YZBW) (i.e., caused me to be cruel). Now I was called (in Exod. 34:6): A MERCIFUL AND GRACIOUS GOD, SLOW TO ANGER, but through their sins I have become cruel and changed my nature, as stated (in Lam. 2:5): THE LORD HAS BECOME LIKE AN ENEMY. It also says (in Is. 63:10): SO HE WAS TURNED INTO THEIR ENEMY. Therefore, Hosea says: Who has brought this about for you? < It was > because you did not heed him, as stated (in Hos. 9:17): {GOD} [MY GOD] WILL REJECT THEM BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HEED HIM. [It is also written] (in Deut. 28:65): AND AMONG THOSE NATIONS YOU SHALL FIND NO PEACE.

7) (Vayikra 26:5) ("And your threshing will reach the vintage, and the vintage will reach the sowing, and you will eat your bread in satiety, and you will dwell securely in your land.") "And your threshing will reach the vintage": (The crops will be so abundant) that you will be engaged in threshing when the vintage (season) arrives. "and the vintage will reach the sowing": You will be engaged in harvesting the vintage when the sowing (season) arrives. "and you will eat your bread in satiety": It need not be said that a man will eat much and be sated, but (the meaning is that) he will eat little and be blessed in his innards, as it is written (Shemoth 22:25) "And you will serve the L–rd your G d, and He will bless your bread and your water." "and you will dwell securely in your land": In your land you will dwell securely, but not outside of it.

8) Lest you say "There is food and there is drink, but without peace there is nothing!" It is, therefore written (Shemoth 22:26) "And I will put peace in the land" — whence we are apprised that peace is over and against all. And thus is it written (Isaiah 45:7) ("I) form light and create darkness. (I) make pace and create 'all.'" — whence we are apprised that peace is over and against all.
