18 “If you still will not listen to me, I will discipline you seven times for your sins.
19 I will crush your arrogance. You will have no rain, and your land will be as hard as cement.
20 You will work hard for nothing because your land will produce no crops and the trees will produce no fruit.
21 “If you resist and don’t listen to me, I will increase the punishment for your sins seven times.
22 I will send wild animals among you. They will rob you of your children, destroy your cattle, and make you so few that your roads will be deserted.
23 “If this discipline does not help and you still resist,
24 then I, too, will resist you. I will punish you seven times for your sins.
