58 “If you are not careful to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome name, ^lthe Lord your God, 59 then the Lord will bring on you and your offspring extraordinary afflictions, afflictions severe and lasting, and sicknesses grievous and lasting. 60 And he will bring upon you again all ^mthe diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. 61 Every sickness also and every affliction that is not recorded in the book of this law, the Lord will bring upon you, until you are destroyed. 62 Whereas ⁿyou were as numerous ^oas the stars of heaven, you shall be left few in number, because you did not obey the voice of the Lord your God. 63 And as the Lord ^ptook delight in doing you good and multiplying you, so the Lord will ^qtake delight in bringing ruin upon you and destroying you. And you shall be plucked off the land that you are entering to take possession of it.

64 “And the Lord ^rwill scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and ^sthere you shall serve other gods ^tof wood and stone, ^uwhich neither you nor your fathers have known. 65 And ^vamong these nations you shall find no respite, and there shall be no resting place for the sole of your foot, but ^wthe Lord will give you there a trembling heart and failing eyes and ^xa languishing soul. 66 Your life shall hang in doubt before you. Night and day you shall be in dread and have no assurance of your life. 67 ^yIn the morning you shall say, ‘If only it were evening!’ and at evening you shall say, ‘If only it were morning!’ because of the dread that your heart shall feel, and ^zthe sights that your eyes shall see. 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.”
