 15and if ye shall despise my statutes, and if your soul shall abhor mine ordinances, so that ye do not all my commandments, that ye break my covenant,
 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.
 17And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed before your enemies: they that hate you shall have dominion over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
 18And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you sevenfold more for your sins,
 19and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron and your earth as bronze;
 20and your strength shall be spent in vain; and your land shall not yield its produce, and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.
 21And if ye walk contrary to me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you, according to your sins.
 22And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.
 23And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but walk contrary to me,
 24then will I also walk contrary to you, and will smite you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
 25And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

 34Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbaths all the days of her desolation, when ye [are] in your enemies' land; then shall the land rest and enjoy her Sabbaths.
 35All the days of the desolation it shall rest; in which it rested not on your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
 36And as to those that remain of you, I will send faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a driven leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as one fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth;
 37and they shall stumble one over another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth; and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
 38And ye shall perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
 39And they that remain of you shall waste away through their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also through the iniquities of their fathers shall they waste away with them.
 40And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, through their unfaithfullness wherein they were unfaithful to me, and also that they have walked contrary to me,
 41so [that] I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies. If then their uncircumcised heart be humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity,
 42I will remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.
 43For the land shall be left by them, and shall enjoy its Sabbaths, when it is in desolation without them; and they shall accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because, they despised my judgments, and their soul despised my statutes.
 44And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not despise them, and will not abhor them, to make an end of them utterly, and to break my covenant with them, for I [am] Jehovah their God.
 45But I will remember toward them the covenant with their ancestors whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, that I might be their God: I [am] Jehovah.

 22{i}Jehovah will smite thee with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with burning ague, and with drought, and with blight, and with mildew, and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.{/i}
 23{i}And thy heavens which are over thy head shall be brass, and the earth which is under thee, iron.{/i}
 24{i}Jehovah will give as the rain of thy land powder and dust; from the heavens shall it come down upon thee until thou be destroyed.{/i}
 25Jehovah shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies; {i}thou shalt go out against them one way, and by seven ways shalt thou flee before them; and thou shalt be driven hither and thither into all the kingdoms of the earth.{/i}
 26{i}And thy carcass shall be meat unto all the fowl of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and there shall be no man to scare them away{/i}.

 33{i}The fruit of thy ground and all thy labour, shall a people that thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed continually.{/i}
 34{i}And thou shalt be mad through the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.{/i}
 35{i}Jehovah will smite thee in the knees and in the legs with evil ulcers, whereof thou canst not be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.{/i}
 36{i}Jehovah will bring thee, and thy king whom thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation that neither thou nor thy fathers have known, and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.{/i}
 37And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither Jehovah shall lead thee.
 38{i}Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall devour it.{/i}
 39{i}Thou shalt plant and till vineyards, but shalt drink no wine, nor gather the fruit; for the worms shall eat it.{/i}
 40{i}Olive-trees shalt thou have throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with oil; for thine olive-tree shall cast its fruit.{/i}
 41{i}Sons and daughters shalt thou beget, but thou shalt not have them to be with thee; for they shall go into captivity.{/i}

 45{i}And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, until thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee.{/i}
 46{i}And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.{/i}
 47{i}Because thou servedst not Jehovah thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of everything,{/i}
 48{i}thou shalt serve thine enemies whom Jehovah will send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of everything; and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.{/i}
 49{i}Jehovah will bring a nation against thee from afar, from the end of the earth, like as the eagle flieth, a nation whose tongue thou understandest not;{/i}
 50{i}a nation of fierce countenance, which regardeth not the person of the old, nor is kind to the young;{/i}
 51{i}and he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground, until thou be destroyed; for he shall not leave thee corn, new wine, or oil, offspring of thy kine, or increase of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.{/i}
 52{i}And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and strong walls wherein thou trustedst come down, throughout all thy land; and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates in all thy land, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee.{/i}
 53{i}And in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee, thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters whom Jehovah thy God hath given thee.{/i}
 54{i}The eye of the man in thy midst that is tender and very luxurious shall be evil towards his brother, and the wife of his bosom, and the residue of his children which he hath left;{/i}
 55{i}so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children that he eateth, because he hath nothing left him in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates.{/i}
 56{i}The eye of the tender and luxurious woman in thy midst who would not attempt to set the sole of her foot upon the ground from luxuriousness and from tenderness, shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and her son, and her daughter,{/i}
 57{i}because of her afterbirth which hath come out between her feet, and her children whom she shall bear; for she shall secretly eat them for want of everything in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.{/i}
 58{i}If thou wilt not take heed to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, to fear this glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH THY GOD;{/i}
 59{i}then Jehovah will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, great and persistent plagues and evil and persistent sicknesses;{/i}
 60{i}and he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt which thou art afraid of, and they shall cleave unto thee.{/i}
 61{i}Also every sickness and every plague which is not written in the book of this law, them will Jehovah bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.{/i}
 62{i}And ye shall be left a small company, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah thy God.{/i}
 63{i}And it shall come to pass, that as Jehovah rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so Jehovah will rejoice over you to cause you to perish, and to destroy you; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whereunto thou goest to possess it.{/i}
 64{i}And Jehovah will scatter thee among all peoples, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; and thou shalt there serve other gods, whom thou hast not known, neither thou nor thy fathers, wood and stone.{/i}
 65{i}And among these nations shalt thou have no rest, neither shall the sole of thy foot have a resting-place, and Jehovah shall give thee there a trembling heart, languishing of the eyes, and pining of the soul.{/i}
 66{i}And thy life shall hang in suspense before thee; and thou shalt be in terror day and night and shalt be afraid of thy life.{/i}
 67{i}In the morning thou shalt say, Would that it were even! and in the evening thou shalt say, Would that it were morning! through the fright of thy heart wherewith thou shalt be in terror, and through the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.{/i}
 68{i}And Jehovah will bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I said unto thee, Thou shalt see it again no more; and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and there shall be no man to buy you.{/i} (Deut. 28:15‑68)
