15. “And it shall be, if you do not obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard to do all His commands and His laws which I command you today, that all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:
16. “Cursed are you in the city, and cursed are you in the field.
17. “Cursed is your basket and your kneading bowl.
18. “Cursed is the fruit of your body and the fruit of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
19. “Cursed are you when you come in, and cursed are you when you go out.
20. “יהוה sends on you the curse, the confusion, and the rebuke in all that you set your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the evil of your doings by which you have forsaken Me.
21. “יהוה makes the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess.
22. “יהוה smites you with wasting disease, and with inflammation, and with burning, and with extreme heat, and with the sword, and with blight, and with mildew. And they shall pursue you until you perish.
23. “And your heavens which are over your head shall be bronze, and the earth which is under you iron.
24. “יהוה makes the rain of your land powder and dust; from the heavens it comes down on you until you are destroyed.
25. “יהוה causes you to be defeated before your enemies – you go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them. And you shall become a horror to all the reigns of the earth.
26. “And your carcasses shall be food for all the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth, with no one to frighten them away.
27. “יהוה shall smite you with the boils of Mitsrayim, with tumours, with the scab, and with the itch, from which you are unable to be healed.
28. “יהוה shall smite you with madness and blindness and bewilderment of heart.
29. “And you shall be groping at noon, as a blind man gropes in darkness, and not prosper in your ways. And you shall be only oppressed and plundered all the days, with no one to save you.
30. “You become engaged to a wife, but another man does lie with her. You build a house, but do not dwell in it. You plant a vineyard, but do not use its fruit.
