"^(C1)Then you will eat the ^(F1)offspring of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom the LORD your God has given you, during the siege and the hardship by which your enemy will ^(F2)oppress you.

"The man who is ^(F1)refined and very delicate among you ^(F2)will be hostile toward his brother, toward the wife ^(F3)he cherishes, and toward the rest of his children who are left,

so that he will not give even one of them any of the flesh of his children which he will eat, since he has nothing else left, during the siege and the hardship by which your enemy will ^(F1)oppress you in all your ^(F2)towns.

"^(C1)The ^(F1)refined and delicate woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because of her delicateness and tenderness, ^(F2)will be hostile toward the husband ^(F3)she cherishes and toward her son and daughter,

and toward her afterbirth that comes from between her ^(F1)legs, and toward her children to whom she gives birth, because ^(C1)she will eat them secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the hardship with which your enemy will ^(F2)oppress you in your ^(F3)towns.
