Deut. 32:40• 40For I lift up my hand to the heavens, and say, I live for ever! (Deut. 32:40)
;
Ezek. 20:5• 5and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up my hand unto them, saying, I am Jehovah your God, (Ezek. 20:5)
Surely I will no more give.
Heb. if I give, etc.
Isa. 65:21‑23• 21And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof:
 22they shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
 23They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Jehovah, and their offspring with them. (Isa. 65:21‑23)
;
Lev. 26:16• 16I also will do this unto you--I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and fever, which shall cause the eyes to fail, and the soul to waste away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. (Lev. 26:16)
;
Deut. 28:31,33• 31Thine ox shall be slaughtered before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof; thine ass shall be snatched away from before thy face, and shall not return to thee; thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to recover them.

Judg. 6:3‑6• 3And it came to pass when Israel sowed, that Midian came up, and Amalek, and the children of the east, and came up against them.
 4And they encamped against them, and destroyed the produce of the land, until thou come to Gazah, and they left no sustenance in Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.
 5For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as locusts for multitude; both they and their camels were without number; and they entered into the land to destroy it.
 6And Israel was greatly impoverished because of Midian. And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah. (Judg. 6:3‑6)

Jer. 5:17• 17And they shall eat up thy harvest and thy bread, they shall eat up thy sons and thy daughters, they shall eat up thy flocks and thy herds, they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig-trees; they shall destroy with the sword thy strong cities, wherein thou trustedst. (Jer. 5:17)
• Yet after all the watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem are needed to keep God’s purpose before the minds of men, rather than before the mind of God, since He never fails. God Himself has sworn that He will do it, and He swears by Himself, as Hebrews 6:13 reminds us. He connects His oath in verse 8 with “His right hand and by the Arm of His strength”. So here again the Arm of the Lord is introduced, since it is by Him that the thing will be done; and the Arm is characterized by strength, for Christ is the power of God, as well as the wisdom of God, as we are told in 1 Corinthians 1:24. (“Isaiah 62:4-64:3” by F.B. Hole)
• Corn and wine are frequently mentioned together in Scripture as indicating the sustenance that man needs. (“Isaiah 62:4-64:3” by F.B. Hole)
