Deuteronomy 28:49–57

⁴⁹The Lord will bring a nation from far away, from the ends of the earth, ^xto swoop down on you like an eagle, ^ya nation whose language you don’t understand, ^z50a ruthless nation, ^ashowing no respect for the old and not sparing the young. ⁵¹They will eat the offspring of your livestock and your land’s produce until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine, oil, young of your herds, or newborn of your flocks until they cause you to perish. ⁵²They will besiege you within all your gates until your high and fortified walls, that you trust in, come down throughout your land. They will besiege you within all your gates throughout the land the Lord your God has given you.

⁵³“You will eat your children, ^bthe flesh of your sons and daughters the Lord your God has given you ^cduring the siege and hardship your enemy imposes on you. ⁵⁴The most sensitive and refined man among you will look grudgingly ^dat his brother, the wife he embraces, ^eand the rest of his children, ⁵⁵refusing to share with any of them his children’s flesh that he will eat because he has nothing left during the siege and hardship your enemy imposes on you in all your towns. ⁵⁶The most sensitive and refined woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because of her refinement and sensitivity, will begrudge the husband she embraces, her son, and her daughter, ⁵⁷the afterbirth that comes out from between her legs and the children she bears, because she will secretly eat them for lack of anything else during the siege and hardship your enemy imposes on you within your gates.
