16. Cursed shall you be in the city and cursed shall you be in the field.
17. Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading trough.
18. Cursed shall be the fruit of your body, of your land, of the increase of your cattle and the young of your sheep.
19. Cursed shall you be when you come in and cursed shall you be when you go out.
20. The Lord shall send you curses, confusion, and rebuke in every enterprise to which you set your hand, until you are destroyed, perishing quickly because of the evil of your doings by which you have forsaken me [Moses and God as one].
21. The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you until He has consumed you from the land into which you go to possess.
22. The Lord will smite you with consumption, with fever and inflammation, fiery heat, sword and drought, blasting and mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish.
23. The heavens over your head shall be brass and the earth under you shall be iron.
24. The Lord shall make the rain of your land powdered soil and dust; from the heavens it shall come down upon you until you are destroyed.
25. The Lord shall cause you to be struck down before your enemies; you shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them, and you shall be tossed to and fro and be a terror among all the kingdoms of the earth. [Fulfilled in II Chron. 29:8.]
26. And your dead body shall be food for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there shall be no one to frighten them away.
27. The Lord will smite you with the boils of Egypt and the tumors, the scurvy and the itch, from which you cannot be healed.
28. The Lord will smite you with madness and blindness and dismay of [mind and] heart.
29. And you shall grope at noonday as the blind grope in darkness. And you shall not prosper in your ways; and you shall be only oppressed and robbed continually, and there shall be no one to save you.
