Deuteronomy
Chapters 28:36-42
Revised Version 1885
36The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
37And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples whither the Lord shall lead thee away.
38Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
39Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress them, but thou shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worm shall eat them.
40Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil: for thine olive shall cast its fruit.
41Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be thine; for they shall go into captivity.
42All thy trees and the fruit of thy ground shall the locust possess.
