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. 21 The Lord will make ^rthe pestilence stick to you until he has consumed you off the land that you are entering to take possession of it. 22 ^sThe Lord will strike you with wasting disease and with fever, inflammation and fiery heat, and with drought¹ and with ^tblight and with mildew. They shall pursue you until you perish.

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.
