59. Then the Lord will bring upon you and your descendants extraordinary strokes and blows, great plagues of long continuance, and grievous sicknesses of long duration.
60. Moreover, He will bring upon you all the diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you.
61. Also every sickness and every affliction which is not written in this Book of the Law the Lord will bring upon you until you are destroyed.
62. And you shall be left few in number, whereas you had been as the stars of the heavens for multitude, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God.
63. And as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so the Lord will rejoice to bring ruin upon you and to destroy you; and you shall be plucked from the land into which you go to possess.
64. And the Lord shall scatter you among all peoples from one end of the earth to the other; and there you shall [be forced to] serve other gods, of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known. [Fulfilled in Dan. 3:6.]
65. And among these nations you shall find no ease and there shall be no rest for the sole of your foot; but the Lord will give you there a trembling heart, failing of eyes [from disappointment of hope], fainting of mind, and languishing of spirit.
66. Your life shall hang in doubt before you; day and night you shall be worried, and have no assurance of your life.
67. In the morning you shall say, Would that it were evening! and at evening you shall say, Would that it were morning!–because of the anxiety and dread of your [minds and] hearts and the sights which you shall see with your [own] eyes.
68. And the Lord shall bring you into Egypt again with ships by the way about which I said to you, You shall never see it again. And there you shall be sold to your enemies as bondmen and bondwomen, but no man shall buy you. [Hos. 8:13.]
