KJV

And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.

Study Note

At Marah, where bitter water was made sweet, God identifies himself as Yahweh Rophe ('the LORD who heals'), establishing a covenant of health conditional on obedience. The verse introduces healing as a central metaphor for the covenant relationship: disease is associated with Egypt, and freedom from it with faithfulness to God. This is one of seven compound names of God in the Hebrew Bible (Yahweh + descriptive epithet), each arising from a specific historical encounter. The verse anchors a significant strand of biblical theology concerning the relationship between covenant fidelity, sin, and physical well-being, a connection developed and nuanced throughout the prophets.
