Deuteronomy 28:49–60

49 mThe Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, nas swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not †understand; 50 A nation †of fierce countenance, owhich shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: 51 And he shall peat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee. 52 And he shall qbesiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the Lord thy God hath given thee. 53 And rthou shalt eat the fruit of thine own †body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath given thee, sin the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee: 54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, this eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward uthe wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave: 55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him sin the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. 56 The wtender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, ther eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter, 57 And toward her †young one that cometh out xfrom between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly sin the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.

58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, yTHE LORD THY GOD; 59 Then the Lord zwill make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. 60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the adiseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
