Deuteronomy 28:38-46 - The Curse Of Reversed Status
38 You will plant many crops in your fields, but harvest little for locusts will destroy your crops. 39 You will plant vineyards and tend them but will not drink the wine from them. Worms will eat them. 40 You will have olive trees throughout all your coasts, but you shall not anoint with the oil, for your olive shall drop off its fruit. 41 Even your infant sons and daughters will be taken as prisoners of war. 42 Locusts will take over all your trees and the fruit of your land. 43 The alien who is living among you will be lifted up higher and higher over you, while you go down lower and lower. 44 They will be able to make loans to you, but you won't be able to make loans to them. They will be the head, and you will be the tail.
45 All these disasters will come on you. They will be with you until you are destroyed. This is because you did not obey Jehovah your God and keep all the laws that he gave you. 46 Everyone will look at you and your descendants and realize that Jehovah has placed you under a curse for a very long time.
