Deuteronomy 28:49-55

49The LORDH3068 shall bringH5375 a nationH1471 against thee from farH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, as swift as the eagleH5404 fliethH1675; a nationH1471 whose languageH3956 thou shalt not understandH8085;1 50A nationH1471 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, which shall not regardH5375 the personH6440 of the oldH2205, nor show favourH2603 to the youngH5288:2 51And he shall eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and the fruitH6529 of thy landH127, until thou art destroyedH8045: which also shall not leaveH7604 thee either grainH1715, wineH8492, or oilH3323, or the increaseH7698 of thy cattleH504, or flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629, until he hath destroyedH6 thee. 52And he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179, until thy highH1364 and fortifiedH1219 wallsH2346 come downH3381, in whichH2004 thou didst trustH982, throughout all thy landH776: and he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179 throughout all thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee. 53And thou shalt eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thy own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee, in the siegeH4692, and in the distressH4689, by which thy enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee:3 54So that the manH376 that is tenderH7390 among you, and veryH3966 delicateH6028, his eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward his brotherH251, and toward the wifeH802 of his bosomH2436, and toward the remnantH3499 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall leaveH3498: 55So that he will not giveH5414 to anyH259 of them of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall eatH398: because he hath nothing leftH7604 him in the siegeH4692, and in the distressH4689, by which thy enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee in all thy gatesH8179.
