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:1 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. 56The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, who would not ventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323, 57And toward her young oneH7988 her own offspringH3318H7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for lackH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and distressH4689, by which thy enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179.2
