Deuteronomy 28:15-35
If, howeverH518, you do notH3808 obeyH8085H6963 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 by carefullyH8104 followingH6213 allH3605 His commandmentsH4687 and statutesH2708 IH595 am giving you todayH6680H3117, allH3605 theseH428 cursesH7045 will comeH935 upon youH5921 and overtake youH5381:
20The LORDH3068 will sendH7971 cursesH3994 upon you, confusionH4103 andH853 reproofH4045 in allH3605 to which you putH4916 your handH3027, untilH5704 you are destroyedH8045H5704 and quicklyH4118 perishH6 because ofH6440 the wickednessH7455 you have committedH4611 in forsaking HimH5800.1
21The LORDH3068 will make the plagueH1698 clingH1692 to you untilH5704 He has exterminatedH3615 youH853 fromH5921 the landH127 thatH834 youH859 are enteringH935H8033 to possessH3423. 22The LORDH3068 will strike youH5221 with wasting diseaseH7829, with feverH6920 and inflammationH1816, with scorching heatH2746 and droughtH2719,2 and with blightH7711 and mildewH3420; these will pursueH7291 you untilH5704 you perishH6. 23The skyH8064 overH5921 your headH7218 will beH1961 bronzeH5178, and the earthH776 beneath youH8478 ironH1270.
24The LORDH3068 will turnH5414 the rainH4306 of your landH776 into dustH80 and powderH6083; it will descendH3381 on youH5921 fromH4480 the skyH8064 untilH5704 you are destroyedH8045.
25The LORDH3068 will causeH5414 you to be defeatedH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341. You will march outH3318 against themH413 in oneH259 directionH1870 but fleeH5127 from themH6440 in sevenH7651. You will beH1961 an object of horrorH2189 to allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776. 26Your corpsesH5038 will beH1961 foodH3978 for allH3605 the birdsH5775 of the airH8064 and beasts ofH929 the earthH776, with noH369 one to scare them awayH2729.
27The LORDH3068 will afflictH5221 you with the boilsH7822 of EgyptH4714, with tumorsH6076 and scabsH1618 and itchH2775 from whichH834 you cannotH3808H3201 be curedH7495.
28The LORDH3068 will afflictH5221 you with madnessH7697, blindnessH5788, and confusionH8541 of mindH3824, 29and at noonH6672 you willH1961 grope aboutH4959 likeH834 a blind manH5787 in the darknessH653. You will notH3808 prosperH6743 in your waysH1870. Day after dayH3605 you will beH1961 oppressedH6231 and plunderedH1497H3117, with no oneH369 to save youH3467.
30You will be pledged in marriageH781 to a womanH802, but anotherH312 manH376 will violate herH7693. You will buildH1129 a houseH1004 but will notH3808 liveH3427 in it. You will plantH5193 a vineyardH3754 but will notH3808 enjoy its fruitH2490. 31Your oxH7794 will be slaughteredH2873 before your eyesH5869, but you will notH3808 eatH398 any of itH4480. Your donkeyH2543 will be taken awayH1497 and notH3808 returnedH7725 to you. Your flockH6629 will be givenH5414 to your enemiesH341, and no oneH369 will saveH3467 you.
32Your sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323 will be givenH5414 to anotherH312 nationH5971, while your eyesH5869 grow wearyH3616 lookingH7200 for themH413 day after dayH3605H3117, with noH369 power inH410 your handH3027. 33A peopleH5971 you do notH3808 knowH3045 will eatH398 the produceH6529 of your landH127 and of allH3605 your toilH3018. AllH3605 your daysH3117 you will beH1961 oppressedH6231 and crushedH7533. 34You will beH1961 driven madH7696 by the sightsH4758H5869 you seeH7200.
35The LORDH3068 will afflict youH5221 with painfulH7451, incurableH3808H3201H7495 boilsH7822 onH5921 your kneesH1290H5921 and thighsH7785, from the solesH3709 of your feetH7272 toH5704 the top of your headH6936.
