47“1BecauseH8478H834 you did not serveH5647 the LordH3068 your GodH430 with joyH8057 and a gladH2898 heartH3824, for the abundanceH7230 of allH3605 thingsH3605; 48therefore you shall serveH5647 your enemiesH340 whomH834 the LordH3068 will sendH7971 against you, 2in hungerH7458, in thirstH6772, in nakednessH5903, and in the lackH2640 of allH3605 thingsH3605; and He 3will putH5414 an ironH1270 yokeH5923 on your neckH6677 untilH5704 He has destroyedH8045 you.

49“4The LordH3068 will bringH5375 a nationH1471 againstH5921 you from afarH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, 5as the eagleH5404 swoopsH1675 downH1675, a nationH1471 whoseH834 languageH3956 you shall not understandH8085, 50a nationH1471 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440 whoH834 will 6haveH5375 noH3808 respectH6440 for the oldH2205, norH3808 showH2603 favorH2603 to the youngH5288. 51Moreover, it shall eatH398 the 7offspringH6529 of your herdH929 and the produceH6529 of your groundH127 untilH5704 you are destroyedH8045, whoH834 also leavesH7604 you noH3808 grainH1715, newH8492 wineH8492, or oilH3323, norH3808 the increaseH7698 of your herdH504 or the youngH6251 of your flockH6629 untilH5704 they have caused you to perishH6. 528It shall besiegeH6887 you in allH3605 your 9townsH8179 untilH5704 your highH1364 and fortifiedH1219 wallsH2346 in whichH834 you trustedH982 comeH3381 downH3381 throughoutH3605 your landH776, and it shall besiegeH6887 you in allH3605 your 10townsH8179 throughoutH3605 your landH776 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has givenH5414 you. 5311Then you shall eatH398 the 12offspringH6529 of your own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of your sonsH1121 and of your daughtersH1323 whomH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has givenH5414 you, during the siegeH4692 and the distressH4689 by whichH834 your enemyH340 will 13oppressH6693 you. 54The manH376 who is 14refinedH7390 and veryH3966 delicateH6028 among you 15shall be hostileH7489 toward his brotherH251 and toward the wifeH802 16he cherishesH2436 and toward the restH3499 of his childrenH1121 whoH834 remainH3498, 55soH4480 that he will not giveH5414 even oneH259 of them anyH4480 of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whichH834 he will eatH398, sinceH4480 he has nothingH1097H3605 else leftH7604, during the siegeH4692 and the distressH4689 by whichH834 your enemyH340 will 17oppressH6693 you in allH3605 your 18townsH8179. 5619The 20refinedH7390 and delicateH6028 womanH6028 among you, whoH834 would not ventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 on the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and 21refinementH7391, 22shall be hostileH7489 toward the husbandH376 23she cherishesH2436 and toward her sonH1121 and daughterH1323, 57and toward her afterbirthH7988 which issuesH3318 from betweenH996 her 24legsH7272 and toward her childrenH1121 whomH834 she bearsH3205; for 25she will eatH398 them secretlyH5643 for lackH2640 of anythingH3605 else, during the siegeH4692 and the distressH4689 by whichH834 your enemyH340 will 26oppressH6693 you in your 27townsH8179.
