Context of Deuteronomy 28:45

43Foreign people who live among you will become stronger and stronger. They will have more and more power over you, as you become weaker. 44They will lend money to you, but you will not lend money to them. They will become your leaders. You will have to follow behind them. All these curses will happen to you. They will be like an enemy that chases after you, catches you, and destroys you. That will happen to you, if you refuse to obey the Lord your God. If you do not obey his commands and his rules that he has given to you, these troubles will happen to you. 46They will show that God is very angry with you. You and your descendants will know that for ever. 47The Lord has given you many good things. But you have not agreed to serve the Lord your God with joy.
