Leviticus 26:17

And I will set my face against you ,.... Exert his power, and stir up his wrath and indignation against them, as enemies of his, to cut them off; see Psalm 34:16 ; which is the reverse of having respect to them, Leviticus 26:9 ,

and ye shall be slain before your enemies ; as they were sometimes by the Philistines and others:

and they that hate you shall reign over you ; as did the Chaldeans and Babylonians; see Psalm 106:41 ,

and ye shall flee when none pursueth you ; of such pusillanimous spirits should they be, and filled with such dread and terror of their enemies, so contrary from what is promised them on their obedience, Leviticus 26:8 .
