Deuteronomy 28:38-48

38You will sow much seed in the field but you will harvest little, because locusts will devour it.

39You will plant vineyards and cultivate them but you will not drink the wine or gather the grapes, because worms will eat them.

40You will have olive trees throughout your country but you will not use the oil, because the olives will drop off.

41You will have sons and daughters but you will not keep them, because they will go into captivity.

42Swarms of locusts will take over all your trees and the crops of your land.

43The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower.

44They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, but you will be the tail.

45All these curses will come on you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the Lord your God and observe the commands and decrees he gave you.

46They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever.

47Because you did not serve the Lord your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity,

48therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the Lord sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.
