Context of Deuteronomy 28:60
58You might not faithfully obey every word of the teachings that are written in this book. You might not fear this glorious and awe-inspiring name: the Lord your God. 59If so, the Lord will strike you and your descendants with unimaginable plagues. They will be terrible and continuing plagues and severe and lingering diseases. He will again bring all the diseases of Egypt that you dreaded, and they will cling to you. 61The Lord will also bring you every kind of sickness and plague not written in this Book of Teachings. They will continue until you’re dead. 62At one time you were as numerous as the stars in the sky. But only a few of you will be left, because you didn’t obey the Lord your God.
