Deuteronomy 28:62-66

62Then you shall be left few in number, 1whereas you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, because you did not 2obey the Lord your God.

63It shall come about that as the Lord 3delighted over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so the Lord will 4delight over you to make you perish and destroy you; and you will be 5torn from the land where you are entering to possess it.

64Moreover, the Lord will 6scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there you shall 7serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your fathers have not known.

65 8Among those nations you shall find no rest, and there will be no resting place for the sole of your foot; but there 9the Lord will give you a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and despair of soul.

66So your life shall 10hang in doubt before you; and you will be in dread night and day, and shall have no assurance of your life.
