20 “The Lord ^owill send on you curses, confusion, and ^pfrustration in all that you undertake to do, ^quntil you are destroyed and perish quickly on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken me.

25 ^v“The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them. And you ^wshall be a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.

37 And you shall become ⁿa horror, a proverb, and a byword among all the peoples where the Lord will lead you away.

43 ^tThe sojourner who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. 44 ^uHe shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him. ^tHe shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.

68 And the Lord ^awill bring you back in ships to Egypt, a journey that I promised that ^byou should never make again; and there you shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but there will be no buyer.”
