Deuteronomy 28:58-68

58IfH518 you are notH3808 carefulH8104 to observeH6213 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 lawH8451 which are writtenH3789 in thisH2088 bookH5612, that you may fearH3372 this gloriousH3513 and awesomeH3372H2088 nameH8034—the LORDH3068 your GodH430— 59HeH3068 will bring upon you and your descendantsH2233 extraordinaryH6381 disastersH4347, severeH1419 and lastingH539 plaguesH4347, and terribleH7451 and chronicH539 sicknessesH2483. 60He will afflict you againH7725 with allH3605 the diseasesH4064 you dreadedH3025 in EgyptH4714H6440, and they will clingH1692 to you.

61The LORDH3068 will alsoH1571 bringH5927 upon youH5921 everyH3605 sicknessH2483H3605 and plagueH4347 notH3808 recordedH3789 in thisH2063 BookH5612 of the LawH8451, untilH5704 you are destroyedH8045. 62You who wereH1961 as numerousH7230 as the starsH3556 in the skyH8064 will be leftH7604 fewH4592 in numberH4962, becauseH3588 you would notH3808 obeyH8085 the voice ofH6963 the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

63

Just asH834 it pleasedH7797 the LORDH3068 to make you prosperH3190 and multiplyH7235, so alsoH3651 it will pleaseH7797 HimH3068H5921 to annihilateH6 youH853 and destroyH8045 youH853. And you will be uprootedH5255 fromH5921 the landH127 youH859 are enteringH935H8033 to possessH3423.

64Then the LORDH3068 will scatterH6327 you among allH3605 the nationsH5971, from one endH7097 of the earthH776 toH5704 the otherH7097H776, and thereH8033 you will worshipH5647 otherH312 godsH430, gods of woodH6086 and stoneH68, whichH834 neither youH859 norH3808 your fathersH1 have knownH3045. 65Among thoseH1992 nationsH1471 you will find noH3808 reposeH7280, not evenH3808 a resting placeH4494 for the soleH3709 of your footH7272. ThereH8033 the LORDH3068 will giveH5414 you a tremblingH7268 heartH3820, failingH3631 eyesH5869, and a despairingH1671 soulH5315.

66

So your lifeH2416 will hang in doubtH8511 before youH5048, and you will be afraidH6342 nightH3915 and dayH3119, neverH3808 certainH539 of survivalH2416. 67In the morningH1242 you will sayH559, ‘If onlyH4310H5414 it were eveningH6153!’ and in the eveningH6153 you will sayH559, ‘If onlyH4310H5414 it were morningH1242!’—because of the dreadH6343 in your heartsH3824 ofH834 the terrifyingH6342 sightsH4758H5869 you will seeH7200.

68The LORDH3068 will return youH7725 to EgyptH4714 in shipsH591 by a routeH1870 thatH834 I saidH559 you should neverH3808 seeH7200 againH3254H5750. ThereH8033 you will sellH4376 yourselves to your enemiesH341 as maleH5650 and female slavesH8198, but noH369 one will buy youH7069.”
