24 The Lord will turn the rain on your land into dust. Only dirt will fall down on you from the sky until you are completely wiped out.
25 The Lord will hand you over defeated to your enemies. You will go out against them by one direction, but you will run for your life away from them in seven different directions. All the earth’s kingdoms will be horrified by you.
26 Your corpses will be food for every bird in the sky and animal on earth; no one will frighten them off.
27 The Lord will afflict you with Egyptian inflammation, hemorrhoids, rash, and itch. You will be untreatable.
28 The Lord will make you go crazy, make you blind, make your mind confused.
29 You will fumble around at high noon as blind people fumble around in darkness. Your plans won’t prosper. Instead, you will be constantly oppressed and taken advantage of without any savior.
30 You might get engaged to a woman, but another man will have sex with her. You might build a house, but you won’t get to live in it. You might plant a vineyard, but you won’t enjoy it.
