36. The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
37. And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples whither the Lord shall lead thee away.
38. Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
39. Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress them, but thou shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worm shall eat them.
40. Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil: for thine olive shall cast its fruit.
41. Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be thine; for they shall go into captivity.
42. All thy trees and the fruit of thy ground shall the locust possess.
43. The stranger that is in the midst of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt come down lower and lower.
