'Curses' in the Bible

These curses will serve as a sign and wonder for you and your descendants as long as you live."

"When all these things happen to you both the blessings and the curses that I've presented to you and you take them seriously in all the nations where the LORD your God will deport you,

Then the LORD your God will inflict all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate and persecute you."
