Deuteronomy 28:45–52

⁴⁵“All these disasters will come on you, and they will be with you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the Lord your God and keep all the laws that he gave you. ⁴⁶They will be the evidence of God’s judgement on you and your descendants for ever. ⁴⁷The Lord blessed you in every way, but you would not serve him with glad and joyful hearts. ⁴⁸So then, you will serve the enemies that the Lord is going to send against you. You will be hungry, thirsty, and naked—in need of everything. The Lord^y will oppress you harshly until you are destroyed. ⁴⁹The Lord will bring against you a nation from the ends of the earth, a nation whose language you do not know. They will swoop down on you like an eagle. ⁵⁰They will be ruthless and show no mercy to anyone, young or old. ⁵¹They will eat your livestock and your crops, and you will starve to death. They will not leave you any corn, wine, olive oil, cattle, or sheep; and you will die. ⁵²They will attack every town in the land that the Lord your God is giving you, and the high, fortified walls in which you trust will fall.
