17. And I will set my face against you, that ye may be routed before your enemies; they that hate you shall have dominion over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
18. And if for this ye hearken not unto me, I will punish you sevenfold more for your sins,
19. and I will break the arrogance of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as bronze,
20. and your strength shall be spent in vain, and your land shall not yield its produce; and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.
21. And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me, I will bring sevenfold more plagues upon you according to your sins.
22. And I will send the beasts of the field among you, that they may rob you of your children, and cut off your cattle, and make you few in number; and your streets shall be desolate.
23. And if ye will not be disciplined by me through these, but walk contrary unto me,
24. then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will smite you, even I, sevenfold for your sins.
25. And I will bring a sword upon you that avengeth with the vengeance of the covenant, and ye shall be gathered together into your cities, and I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26. When I break the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and shall deliver you the bread again by weight; and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
27. And if for this ye hearken not to me, but walk contrary unto me,
28. then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven-fold for your sins.
29. And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
30. And I will lay waste your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.
31. And I will lay waste your cities and desolate your sanctuaries; and I will not smell your sweet odours.
