¹⁶^*I will punish you. I will bring disaster on you—incurable diseases and fevers that will make you blind and cause your life to waste away. You will sow your seed, but it will do you no good, because your enemies will conquer you and eat what you have grown. ¹⁷^*I will turn against you, so that you will be defeated, and those who hate you will rule over you; you will be so terrified that you will run when no one is chasing you.

¹⁸^*“If even after all this you still do not obey me, I will increase your punishment seven times. ¹⁹^*I will break your stubborn pride; there will be no rain, and your land will be dry and as hard as iron. ²⁰^*All your hard work will do you no good, because your land will not produce crops and the trees will not bear fruit.

²¹^*“If you still continue to resist me and refuse to obey me, I will again increase your punishment seven times. ²²^*I will send dangerous animals among you, and they will kill your children, destroy your livestock, and leave so few of you that your roads will be deserted.
