The LORD will open the heavens, His abundant storehouse, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations, but borrow from none.

13
The LORD will make you the head and not the tail;… you will only move upward and never… downward, if you hear and carefully follow the commandments of [[YHWH|the LORD]] your God, which I am giving you today.

Do not turn aside to the right or to the left from any of the words I command you today, and do not go after other gods to serve them.

55
refusing to share with any of them the flesh of his children he will eat because he has nothing… left in the siege and distress that your enemy will inflict on you within all your gates.

56
The most gentle and refined woman among you, so gentle and refined she would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground, will begrudge… the husband she embraces and her son and daughter

57
the afterbirth that comes from between her legs and the children she bears, because she will secretly eat them for lack of anything else in the siege and distress that your enemy will inflict on you within your gates.

58
If you are not careful to observe all the words of this law which are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome… name— [[YHWH|the LORD]] your God—

59
He - {will bring} upon you and your descendants extraordinary disasters,… severe and lasting plagues, and terrible and chronic sicknesses.

He will afflict you again with all the diseases you dreaded in Egypt,… and they will cling to you.

61
The LORD will also bring upon you every sickness… and plague not recorded in this Book of the Law, until you are destroyed.

62
- You who were as numerous as the stars in the sky will be left few in number, because you would not obey the voice of [[YHWH|the LORD]] your God.

63
- Just as it pleased [[YHWH|the LORD]] to make you prosper and multiply, so also it will please Him… to annihilate you and destroy you. And you will be uprooted from the land you are entering… to possess.

64
Then [[YHWH|the LORD]] will scatter you among all the nations, from one end of the earth to the other,… and there you will worship other gods, [gods] of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known.

65
Among those nations you will find no repose not even a resting place for the sole of your foot. There [[YHWH|the LORD]] will give you a trembling heart, failing eyes, and a despairing soul.

66
- So your life will hang in doubt before you, and you will be afraid night and day, never certain of survival.

67
In the morning you will say, ‘If only… it were evening!’ and in the evening you will say, ‘If only… it were morning!’— because of the dread in your hearts of the terrifying sights… you will see.

68
The LORD will return you to Egypt in ships by a route that I said you {should} never see again… There you will sell yourselves to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you.”
