57 the afterbirth that issues from her womb and the infants she brings forth because she secretly eats them for want of anything else—such the siege and distress to which your enemy will subject you in your communities.
58 If you are not careful to observe all the words of this law which is written in this book, and to fear this glorious and awesome name, the Lord, your God,
59 the Lord will bring upon you and your descendants wondrous calamities, severe and constant calamities, and malignant and constant sicknesses.
60 He will bring back upon you all the diseases of Egypt which you dread, and they will cling to you.
61 Even any sickness or calamity not written in this book of the law, that too the Lord will bring upon you until you are destroyed.
62 You who were numerous as the stars of the heavens will be left few in number, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord, your God.
63 Just as the Lord once took delight in making you prosper and grow, so will the Lord now take delight in ruining and destroying you, and you will be plucked out of the land you are now entering to possess.
