Deuteronomy 28:53-57
531Then you will eat the 2offspring of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom the Lord your God has given you, during the siege and the hardship by which your enemy will 3oppress you. 54The man who is 4refined and very delicate among you 5will be hostile toward his brother, toward the wife 6he cherishes, and toward the rest of his children who are left, 55so that he will not give even one of them any of the flesh of his children which he will eat, since he has nothing else left, during the siege and the hardship by which your enemy will 7oppress you in all your 8towns. 569The 10refined and delicate woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because of her delicateness and tenderness, 11will be hostile toward the husband 12she cherishes and toward her son and daughter, 57and toward her afterbirth that comes from between her 13legs, and toward her children to whom she gives birth, because 14she will eat them secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the hardship with which your enemy will 15oppress you in your 16towns.
