23 First, she’s disobeyedthe Law of the Most High;second, she’s wronged her husband;third, she’s committed adulteryby her illicit sexual behaviorand produced childrenby another man.
24 She will be led into the assembly,and her punishmentwill be upon her children.
25 Her children won’t take root,and her branches won’t bear fruit.
26 She will leave behind a cursed memory,and her reproach won’t be wiped clean.
27 And those who remain will knowthat nothing is betterthan fearing the Lord,and nothing is sweeter than keeping the Lord’s commandments.
