And if you will not listen to Me, and do not do all these commands;

and if you reject My statutes, and if your soul hates My judgments, so as not to do all My commands, to the breaking of My covenant;

I will also do this to you, and I shall appoint terror over you, the wasting, and the burning fever, destroying the eyes, and consuming the soul; and you shall sow your seed in vain, and your enemies will eat it.

And I shall set My face against you, and you shall be smitten before your enemies; and those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee, and there will be no one pursuing you.

And if after these things you will not listen to Me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sin;

and I will break the pride of your strength, and will make your heavens as iron, and your earth as bronze;

and your strength shall be consumed in vain, and your land shall not give her produce, and the tree of the land shall not give its fruit.

And if you walk contrary to Me, and are not willing to listen to Me, then I will bring seven times more plagues on you according to your sins,

and send against you the beast of the field, and it shall bereave you. And I shall cut off your livestock and shall make you few, so that your ways are desolate.

And if you are not chastised by Me by these things, and shall walk contrary to Me,

then I, I also, shall walk contrary to you, and shall smite you, even I, seven times more for your sins;

and I will bring a sword on you, executing the vengeance of the covenant, and you shall be gathered to your cities, and I shall send pestilence into your midst; and you shall be given into the hand of an enemy.

When I break to you the staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and shall give back your bread by weight; and you shall eat, and shall not be satisfied.
