I have said I will blow them away, I will turn away their remembrance from man; Unless I shall fear the enemy's their adversaries shall dissemble, Lest they shall say, Our high hand And not Jehovah did all this For they a nation destroying counsels, And no understanding in them. Would they were wise! will they look at this? Will they discern to their latter part? How shall one chase a thousand; And two shall cause ten thousand to flee, If that their Rock had not sold them, And Jehovah delivered them up? For their rock not as our Rock, And our enemies judging. For their vine from the vine of Sodom, And from the fields of Gomorrah: Their grapes the grapes of poverty, The clusters of bitterness to them. Their wine the wrath of dragons, And the fierce head of asps. Is not this laid up with me, Sealed up in my treasuries? To me vengeance and requital; At the time their foot shall waver: For the day of their destruction is near, And he hastened things prepared for them For Jehovah will judge his people, And upon his servants will he have compassion; When he shall see that the hand has failed, And nothing detained and left And he said, Where their gods, The rock they trusted in it? Whose fat of their sacrifices they shall eat; They shall drink the wine of their libations They shall rise up, and they shall succor you, It shall be for you protection. See ye now, that I, I am he, And no God with me: I will kill, and I will preserve alive; I struck through and through, and I will heal; And none takes away out of my hand. For I will lift up my hand to the heavens, And I said, I live forever. If I sharpened the lightning of my sword, And my hand shall lay hold upon judgment, I will turn back vengeance to mine adversaries, And to those hating me I will requite, I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, And my sword shall eat flesh, From the blood of the wounded and the captivity, From the head of the enemy's leaders.

Judgments » Denounced against disobedience
And it being, if thou shalt not hear to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to watch to do all his commands and his laws which I command thee this day; and all these curses came upon thee, and overtook thee: Cursed thou in the city, and cursed thou in the field. Cursed thy basket and thy remainders. read more.
Cursed the fruit of thy belly, and the fruit of thy land, the offspring of thine oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep. Cursed thou in thy coming in, and cursed thou in thy going out Jehovah will send upon thee the curse and the consternation, and the rebuke, upon all the sending forth of thy hand which thou shalt do, till he destroyed thee, and till he caused thee to perish quickly: on account of the evil of thy works by which thou forsookest me. Jehovah shall cleave upon thee death, till his consuming thee from the land which thou wentest there to possess it Jehovah shall strike thee with consumption, and with burning fever, and with inflammation, and with sword and with burning, and with blasting, and with yellowness: and they shall pursue thee till he have destroyed thee. And the heavens which over thy head were brass, and the earth which is under thee, iron. Jehovah will give the rain of thy land dust and clay: from the heavens shall it come down upon thee, till he destroyed thee. And Jehovah will give thee smitten before thine enemies: in one way thou shalt go forth against him, and in seven ways shalt thou flee before his face; and thou wert for a shaking to all the kingdoms of the earth. And thy carcass was for food to all the birds of the heavens and to the cattle of the earth, and none terrifying. Jehovah shall strike thee with the burning sore of Egypt, and with tumors, and with scratching, and with the itch of which thou shalt not be able to be healed. Jehovah will strike thee with madness and with blindness and with astonishment of heart; And thou wert groping at noon as the blind shall grope in darkness, and thou shalt not succeed with thy ways: and thou wert only oppressed and stripped all the days, and none saving. Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build a house and shall not dwell in it; thou shalt plant a vineyard and thou shalt not lay it open. Thine ox slaughtered before thine eyes and thou shalt not eat from it: thine ass stripped from before thee and shall not turn back to thee; thy sheep, given to thine enemies, and none to thee saving. Thy sons and thy daughters given to another people, and thine eyes seeing and failing for them all the day: and nothing for the strength of thy hand. The fruit of thy land and all thy labors, a people which thou knewest not shall eat: and thou wert only oppressed and broken all the days. And thou wert mad from the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. Jehovah shall strike thee with an evil burning sore upon thy knees and upon thy legs, which thou shalt not be able to heal from the sole of thy foot to thy crown. Jehovah shall lead thee, and thy king which thou shalt set up over thee, to a nation which thou knewest not thou and thy fathers; and thou servedst there other gods, wood and stone. And thou wert for an astonishment, for a parable, for a sharp saying in all the peoples where Jehovah shall lead thee there. Thou shalt bring out much seed to thy field, and shalt gather little, for the locust shall devour it Thou shalt plant vineyards and thou shalt work; and thou shalt not drink the wine, and thou shalt not gather, for the worm shall eat it Olive trees shall be to thee in all thy boundaries, and thou shalt not be anointed with oil, for thine olive shall slip away. And thou shalt beget sons and daughters, and they shall not be to thee, for they shall go into captivity. All thy wood and the fruit of thy land shall the grasshopper seize. The stranger which is in the midst of thee shall go up above thee, going up, going up; and thou shalt go down beneath, beneath. He shall lend to thee and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be for head, and thou shalt be for tail. And all these curses came upon thee and pursued thee and overtook thee, till he destroyed thee; for thou heardst not to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to watch his commands and his laws which he commanded thee. And they were upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed even to forever. Because that thou servedst not Jehovah thy God injoy and in a good heart for the multitude of all things. And thou servedst thine enemies which Jehovah shall send forth against thee in hunger and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things and he gave a yoke of iron upon thy neck till his destroying thee. Jehovah shall raise up against thee a nation from far off, from the extremity of the earth, as the eagle shall fly, whose tongue thou shalt not hear; A nation strong of face who shall not lift up the face to the old man, and shall not compassionate the young. And it shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land till he destroyed thee: which shall not leave to thee grain, new wine or new oil, the offspring of thine oxen and the flocks of thy sheep, till his destroying thee. And he passed upon thee in all thy gates until the coming down of thy high and inaccessible fortresses which thou trustest in them in all thy land: and he passed upon thee in all thy gates in all thy land which Jehovah thy God gave to thee. And thou atest the fruit of thy belly, the flesh of thy sons and thy daughters, which Jehovah thy God gave to thee, in the distress and in the straitness which thine enemy shall press upon thee: The man tender in thee, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil upon his brother, and upon the wife of his bosom, and upon the remainder of his sons which he shall leave: The gift to one of them of the flesh of his sons which he shall eat from: nothing remaining to him of all things in the distress and in the straitness which his enemy shall press upon thee in all thy gates. She tender and delicate in thee, who tried not to set the sole of her foot upon the earth from delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil upon the husband of her bosom, and upon her son, and upon her daughter, And upon her afterbirth coming forth from between her feet, and upon her sons which she shall bear: for she will eat them in want of all things, in secret, in the distress and in the straitness which thine enemy shall press upon thee in thy gates. If thou shalt not watch to do all the words of this law being written in this book, to fear this honored and fearful name JEHOVAH THY GOD; And Jehovah made thy smiting wonderful, and the smitings of thy seed, great and lasting blows, and evil and lasting diseases. And he turned back upon thee all the sicknesses of Egypt, of which thou west afraid from their face, and they did cleave to thee. Also every disease and every blow which is not written in the book of this law, Jehovah will bring them up upon thee, till he destroyed thee. And ye were left few in extension, instead of which ye were as the stars of the heavens for multitude, because thou heardst not to the voice of Jehovah thy God. And it being as Jehovah rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so Jehovah shall rejoice over you to destroy you and to cut you off; and ye were torn away from the land which thou wentest in there to possess it. And Jehovah scattered thee among all peoples from the end of the earth even to the end of the earth; and thou servedst there other gods which thou knewest not, thou and thy fathers, wood and stone. And among these nations thou shalt not rest, and there shall not be rest to the sole of thy foot: and Jehovah gave to thee there a trembling heart and a wasting away of the eyes, and a faintnesss of soul. And thy lives were hung before thee; and thou wert afraid night and day, and thou shalt not trust to thy life In the morning thou shalt say, Who shall give evening? and in the evening thou shalt say, Who shall give morning? from the feat of thy heart which thou shalt fear, and from the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. And Jehovah turned thee back to Egypt in ships, in the way; which I said to thee, Thou shalt not add more to see it: and ye were sold there to thine enemies for servants, and for maids, and none buying
Cursed the fruit of thy belly, and the fruit of thy land, the offspring of thine oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep.

And I gave my face against you, and ye were slain before your enemies: and they hating you ruled over you, and ye fled and none pursued you. And if yet these ye will not hear to me, I added to chastise you seven times for your sins. And I broke the pride of your strength: and I gave your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass: And your strength shall be exhausted to no purpose: and your land shall not give its produce, and the tree of the land shall not give its fruit And if ye shall go hostile with me, and shall not be willing to hear to me, and I added upon you seven blows for your sins. And I sent upon you the beast of the field, and it bereaved you of children, and cut off your cattle, and, diminished you, and your ways were laid waste. And if by these ye will not be admonished by me, and ye went hostile with me; And I went also hostile with you, and I struck you, also I, seven for your sins.

And I laid the land waste, and your enemies were astonished at it, they dwelling upon it And I will scatter you among the nations, and I drew out after you a sword: and your land was a desert, and your cities shall be a desolation.

And I broke the pride of your strength: and I gave your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass: And your strength shall be exhausted to no purpose: and your land shall not give its produce, and the tree of the land shall not give its fruit And if ye shall go hostile with me, and shall not be willing to hear to me, and I added upon you seven blows for your sins. And I sent upon you the beast of the field, and it bereaved you of children, and cut off your cattle, and, diminished you, and your ways were laid waste. And if by these ye will not be admonished by me, and ye went hostile with me; And I went also hostile with you, and I struck you, also I, seven for your sins. And I brought upon you the sword to avenge vengeance of the covenant: and ye were gathered into your cities and I sent death in the midst of you, and ye were given into the hand of the enemy. In my breaking to you the rod of bread, and ten women baked your bread in one oven, and they returned your bread by weight: and ye ate, and ye shall not be satisfied. And if by this ye shall not hear to me, and ye went hostile with me; And I went hostile with you in anger; and I chastised you, I also, seven for your sins. And ye ate the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat. And I laid waste your high places, and I cut off your images, and I gave your carcasses upon the carcasses of your blocks, and my soul abhorred you. And I gave your cities a desert, and I laid waste your holy places, and I will not smell upon the odor of your sweetness. And I laid the land waste, and your enemies were astonished at it, they dwelling upon it And I will scatter you among the nations, and I drew out after you a sword: and your land was a desert, and your cities shall be a desolation. Then shall the land delight with its Sabbaths, all the days of its desolation, and ye in the land of your enemies: then shall the land rest and delight with its Sabbaths. All the days of its desolation shall it rest, which it did not rest in your Sabbaths, in your dwelling upon it And they remaining of you, and I brought timidity into their heart in the land of their enemies; and the voice of a driven leaf pursued them, and they fled, fleeing the sword; and they fell, and none pursued. And they faltered each upon his brother, as from before the sword, and none pursued: and there shall be to you no power of standing before your enemies. And ye were destroyed in the nations, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up. And they being left of you, shall pine away in their sin in the land of your enemies, and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.
And God will see and will reject, From the irritating of his sons and his daughters And he will say, I will hide my face from them; I will see what shall be after them: For they a generation of perverseness, Sons no faith in them. They made me jealous with not God; They irritated me with their vanities: And I will make them jealous with not a people; With a foolish nation will I irritate them. read more.
For a fire was kindled in mine anger. And it shall burn to the lowest hades, And it shall consume the land and its produce, And it shall burn the foundations of the mountains. I will gather evils upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them. Exhausted with hunger, consumed with burning, And bitter destruction: And I will send upon them the tooth of beasts, With the wrath of those crawlers of the dust The sword shall bereave without, And terror from the chambers, Also the youth, also the virgin, The suckling, with the man of gray hair. I have said I will blow them away, I will turn away their remembrance from man; Unless I shall fear the enemy's their adversaries shall dissemble, Lest they shall say, Our high hand And not Jehovah did all this For they a nation destroying counsels, And no understanding in them. Would they were wise! will they look at this? Will they discern to their latter part? How shall one chase a thousand; And two shall cause ten thousand to flee, If that their Rock had not sold them, And Jehovah delivered them up? For their rock not as our Rock, And our enemies judging. For their vine from the vine of Sodom, And from the fields of Gomorrah: Their grapes the grapes of poverty, The clusters of bitterness to them. Their wine the wrath of dragons, And the fierce head of asps. Is not this laid up with me, Sealed up in my treasuries? To me vengeance and requital; At the time their foot shall waver: For the day of their destruction is near, And he hastened things prepared for them For Jehovah will judge his people, And upon his servants will he have compassion; When he shall see that the hand has failed, And nothing detained and left And he said, Where their gods, The rock they trusted in it? Whose fat of their sacrifices they shall eat; They shall drink the wine of their libations They shall rise up, and they shall succor you, It shall be for you protection. See ye now, that I, I am he, And no God with me: I will kill, and I will preserve alive; I struck through and through, and I will heal; And none takes away out of my hand. For I will lift up my hand to the heavens, And I said, I live forever. If I sharpened the lightning of my sword, And my hand shall lay hold upon judgment, I will turn back vengeance to mine adversaries, And to those hating me I will requite, I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, And my sword shall eat flesh, From the blood of the wounded and the captivity, From the head of the enemy's leaders. Rejoice ye nations with him, For he will raise up the blood of his servants, And he will turn back vengeance to his adversaries, And he will expiate for his land, his people.
