58 Be careful to obey everything in these teachings. They are written in this book. You must respect the glorious and wonderful name of the Lord your God.
59 The Lord will give terrible diseases to you and your descendants. You will have long and serious diseases. You will have long and miserable sicknesses.
60 And the Lord will give you all the diseases of Egypt that you dread. And the diseases will stay with you.
61 The Lord will also give you every disease and sickness not written in this Book of the Teachings. Then you will be destroyed.
62 You people may have outnumbered the stars. But only a few of you will be left. You did not obey the Lord your God.
63 Once the Lord was happy with you. He gave you good things. He made you grow in number. But now the Lord will be happy to ruin and destroy you. You will be removed from the land you are entering to own.
64 Then the Lord will scatter you among the nations. He will scatter you from one end of the earth to the other. There you will serve other gods of wood and stone. They are gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known.
