31. Your ox will be killed before your eyes. But you will not eat any of it. Your donkey will be taken away from you. And it will not be brought back. Your sheep will be given to your enemies. And no one will rescue them.
32. Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation. You will grow tired looking for them every day. But there is nothing you can do.
33. People you don’t know will eat the crops your land and hard work have produced. You will be mistreated and abused all your life.
34. The things you see will cause you to go mad.
35. The Lord will give you sore boils on your knees and legs. They cannot be cured. They will go from the soles of your feet to the tops of your heads.
36. The Lord will send you and your king away to a nation you do not know. There you will serve other gods made of wood and stone.
37. You will become a hated thing to the nations where the Lord sends you. They will laugh at you and make fun of you.
38. You will plant much seed in your field. But your harvest will be small. Locusts will eat the crop.
39. You will plant vineyards and work hard in them. But you will not pick the grapes or drink the wine. The worms will eat them.
40. You will have olive trees in all your land. But you will not get any olive oil. The olives will drop off the trees.
