Deuteronomy
Chapters 28:38-44
Revised Version 1885
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.
43The stranger that is in the midst of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt come down lower and lower.
44He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
