*
Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people ,
and your eyes shall look and fail with longing for them all day long ;
and there shall be no strength in your hand .
*
A nation whom you have not known shall eat the fruit of your land and the produce of your labor ,
and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually .
*
So you shall be driven mad because of the sight which your eyes see .
*
The LORD will strike you in the knees and on the legs with severe boils which cannot be healed ,
and from the sole of your foot to the top of your head .
* "
The LORD will bring you and the king whom you set over you to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known ,
and there you shall serve other gods--wood and stone .
*
And you shall become an astonishment ,
a proverb ,
and a byword among all nations where the LORD will drive you .
* "
You shall carry much seed out to the field but gather little in ,
for the locust shall consume it .
*
You shall plant vineyards and tend them ,
but you shall neither drink of the wine nor gather the grapes ;
for the worms shall eat them .
*
You shall have olive trees throughout all your territory ,
but you shall not anoint yourself with the oil ;
for your olives shall drop off .
*
You shall beget sons and daughters ,
but they shall not be yours ;
for they shall go into captivity .
*
Locusts shall consume all your trees and the produce of your land .
* "
The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you ,
and you shall come down lower and lower .
*
He shall lend to you ,
but you shall not lend to him ;
he shall be the head ,
and you shall be the tail .
* "
Moreover all these curses shall come upon you and pursue and overtake you ,
until you are destroyed ,
because you did not obey the voice of the LORD your God ,
to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you .
*
And they shall be upon you for a sign and a wonder ,
and on your descendants forever .
* "
Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joy and gladness of heart ,
for the abundance of everything ,
