Deuteronomy 28:38-47

38Thou shalt carry muchH7227 seedH2233 out into the fieldH7704, and shalt gatherH622 littleH4592 in; for the locustH697 shall consume it. 39Thou shalt plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 and dress them, but thou shalt neither drinkH8354 of the wineH3196, nor gatherH103 the grapes; for the worm shall eatH398 them. 40Thou shalt have olive-trees throughout all thy bordersH1366, but thou shalt not anointH5480 thyself with the oilH8081; for thine oliveH2132 shall cast its fruit. 41Thou shalt beget sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, but they shall not beH1961 thine; for they shall go into captivityH7628. 42All thy treesH6086 and the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127 shall the locust possessH3423. 43The sojournerH1616 that is in the midstH7130 of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt comeH5927 down lower and lower. 44He shall lendH3867 to thee, and thou shalt not lendH3867 to him: he shall beH1961 the headH7218, and thou shalt beH1961 the tailH2180. 45And all these cursesH7045 shall comeH935 upon thee, and shall pursueH7291 thee, and overtakeH5381 thee, till thou be destroyedH8045; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voiceH6963 of Jehovah thy GodH430, to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687 and his statutesH2708 which he commandedH6680 thee: 46and they shall beH1961 upon thee for a signH226 and for a wonderH4159, and upon thy seedH2233 for everH5769.

47Because thou servedst not Jehovah thy GodH430 with joyfulness, and with gladnessH8057 of heartH3824, by reason of the abundanceH7230 of all things;
