*
The LORD will bring a nation against you from afar ,
from the end of the earth ,
as swift as the eagle flies ,
a nation whose language you do not understand ,
*
a nation of stern countenance ,
who shall not regard the person of the old or show favor to the young ,
*
and shall eat the offspring of your cattle and the fruit of your ground ,
until you are destroyed ;
who also shall not leave you grain ,
wine ,
or oil ,
the increase of your cattle or the young of your flock ,
until they have caused you to perish .
*
They shall besiege you in all your towns ,
until your high and fortified walls ,
in which you trusted ,
come down throughout all your land ;
and they shall besiege you in all your towns throughout all your land ,
which the LORD your God has given you .
*
And you shall eat the offspring of your own body ,
the flesh of your sons and daughters ,
whom the LORD your God has given you ,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies shall distress you .
