thee this
day, that the

thy God will
set
thee on
high

been
, if thou dost
hearken diligently to
the voice of Jehovah
thy God, to observe to do all His commands

commanding
thee to-
day, that Jehovah
thy God hath
made
thee uppermost
above all the
nations of the earth ,

come on
thee, and overtake
thee, if
thou shalt
hearken unto
the voice of the
LORD
thy God .

thy God is
giving
to
thee.

establish thee an
holy people unto
himself
, as he hath sworn unto
thee, if

keep
the commandments
of the
LORD
thy God, and walk
in his ways .

sware
unto
thy fathers to give thee.

thy God, which I command
thee this
day, to observe
and to do them:
`
And Jehovah
hath
given
thee for
head, and not for
tail; and thou hast
been
only above
, and art
not beneath ,
for

hearken unto the commands
of Jehovah
thy God, which I am
commanding
thee to-
day, to keep
and to do ,

not go
aside from any
of
the words which I command

the
left ,
to go after other gods to serve them.

that
is
over thy head shall
be
brass, and the earth that
is under thee shall
be
iron .
`
And thy heavens
which
`are'
over thy head have
been
brass, and the earth which
`
is '
under thee iron ;
The
LORD
shall
make
the rain of thy land powder
and
dust :
from heaven
shall
it come
down upon
thee ,
until
thou be
destroyed.
Jehovah
giveth

heavens
it cometh

thee till
thou art
destroyed.
The
LORD
shall
cause
thee to
be
smitten before thine enemies :
thou
shalt
go
out
one way against
them, and flee
seven ways before them :
and shalt
be
removed
into
all the
kingdoms of the earth .
`Jehovah
giveth
thee smitten before thine enemies ;
in
one way thou
goest
out
unto
them, and in
seven ways dost
flee
before them ,
and thou
hast
been
for
a
trembling
to
all kingdoms of the earth ;
And thy carcass
shall
be
meat
unto
all
fowls
of the air
, and unto
the beasts
of the earth, and no
man
shall
fray
them
away
.
and thy carcase
hath
been
for
food
to
every
fowl
of the heavens
, and to
the beast
of the earth, and there
is
none
causing
trembling
.
The

smite thee with the botch
of Egypt, and with the
emerods, and with the
scab
, and with the
itch, whereof
thou canst
not be healed.

be healed.
The
LORD
shall
smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart :
`Jehovah
doth
smite thee with madness, and with
blindness, and with
astonishment of heart ;
And thou shalt
grope
at noonday
, as the blind gropeth in darkness ,
and thou shalt
not prosper
in
thy ways :
and thou shalt
be
only oppressed and spoiled
evermore
, and no man
shall
save
thee
.
and thou hast
been
gropling
at noon
, as the blind gropeth in darkness ;
and thou dost
not cause
thy ways to
prosper;
and thou hast
been
only oppressed and plundered
all
the
days
, and there
is
no saviour
.
Thou shalt
betroth a
wife
, and another man shall
lie with her :
thou shalt
build an
house
, and thou
shalt
not dwell therein:
thou
shalt
plant
a vineyard, and shalt
not gather
the
grapes
thereof.
`A
woman
thou dost
betroth, and another man doth
lie with her ;
a
house
thou dost
build, and dost
not dwell in
it;
a vineyard thou
dost
plant
, and dost
not make
it
common;
Thine ox shall
be
slain
before thine eyes, and thou shalt
not eat thereof:
thine ass shall
be
violently
taken away from before thy
face
, and shall
not be
restored
to thee :
thy sheep shall
be
given unto
thine enemies, and thou
shalt
have
none
to
rescue
them
.
thine ox `is'
slaughtered
before thine eyes, and thou dost
not eat of
it;
thine ass `is'
taken violently
away from before thee
, and it
is
not given
back
to thee ;
thy sheep `are'
given to
thine enemies, and there
is
no
saviour
for
thee
.
Thy sons and thy daughters shall
be
given unto
another people, and thine eyes shall
look,
and fail
with
longing
for them all the day long;
and there
shall
be
no
might
in
thine
hand .
`
Thy sons and thy daughters `are'
given to
another people, and thine eyes are
looking
and consuming
for them all the day ,
and thy
hand is
not
to
God!
The fruit of thy land
, and all thy labors
, shall
a nation
which
thou knowest
not eat
up
; and thou shalt
be
only oppressed and crushed
alway:
The fruit of thy ground
, and all thy labour
, eat
up
doth
a people
whom
thou hast
not known
; and thou hast
been
only oppressed and bruised
all
the
days;
So
that
thou shalt
be
mad for
the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt
see.
and
thou hast
been
mad ,
because
of
the sight of thine eyes which thou dost
see.
The
LORD
shall
smite thee in
the knees, and in
the legs ,
with
a
sore
botch
that
cannot
be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the
top
of
thy head
.
`Jehovah
doth
smite thee with
an
evil
ulcer,
on
the knees, and on
the legs (of
which
thou
art
not
able
to
be healed )
, from the sole of thy foot even
unto thy crown
.
The
LORD
shall
bring
thee, and thy king which
thou shalt
set
over thee, unto a nation which neither
thou nor
thy fathers have
known;
and there
shalt
thou serve
other gods, wood and stone .
`Jehovah
doth
cause
thee to
go
, and thy king whom
thou raisest
up
over thee, unto a nation which thou hast
not
known,
thou
and
thy fathers ,
and thou hast
served
there
other gods, wood and stone ;
And thou shalt
become
an astonishment, a proverb
, and a byword ,
among all nations
whither
the LORD
shall
lead thee.
and thou hast
been
for
an astonishment, for
a simile
, and for
a byword among all the peoples
whither
Jehovah
doth
lead thee.
Thou
shalt
carry
much seed out into the field, and shalt
gather
but
little in ;
for the locust shall
consume it .
`
Much seed thou
dost
take
out into the field, and little thou
dost
gather
in ,
for the locust doth
consume it ;
Thou shalt
plant vineyards
, and dress
them
, but
shalt
neither
drink
of
the
wine ,
nor gather the
grapes;
for the worms
shall
eat
them.
vineyards
thou dost
plant, and hast
laboured
, and
wine thou
dost
not
drink
nor gather ,
for the worm
doth
consume
it;
Thou
shalt
have
olive
trees
throughout
all thy coasts
, but
thou shalt
not anoint
thyself
with
the
oil;
for thine olive shall
cast
his
fruit
.
olives
are
to
thee
in
all thy border
, and
oil
thou dost
not pour
out,
for thine olive doth
fall
off
.
Thou
shalt
beget
sons and daughters ,
but
thou shalt
not enjoy
them;
for they shall
go into captivity .
`
Sons and daughters thou dost
beget,
and
they
are
not with
thee,
for they go into captivity ;
All thy trees and fruit of thy land
shall
the locust consume.
all thy trees and the
fruit of thy ground
doth
the locust possess;
The stranger
that
is within
thee
shall
get
up above thee very high ;
and thou shalt
come
down very low .
the sojourner
who
`
is '
in
thy
midst
goeth
up above thee very high ,
and thou goest
down very low ;
He shall
lend to thee, and thou shalt
not lend to him :
he shall
be
the
head, and thou shalt
be
the
tail.
he doth
lend `
to '
thee, and thou dost
not lend `
to '
him ;
he is
for
head, and thou art
for
tail.
Moreover
all
these
curses
shall
come upon thee, and shall
pursue
thee, and overtake
thee, till thou be
destroyed ;
because thou hearkenedst
not unto
the voice of the
LORD
thy God, to keep his commandments
and his statutes which he commanded thee :
`And
come upon thee have
all
these
curses
, and they
have
pursued
thee, and overtaken
thee, till thou art
destroyed ,
because thou hast
not hearkened
to
the voice of Jehovah
thy God, to keep His commands,
and His statutes ,
which he hath
commanded thee ;
And they shall
be
upon
thee for a sign and for a wonder, and
upon
thy seed for
ever
.
and they have
been
on
thee for a sign and for a wonder, also
on
thy seed --
to
the
age
.
Because thou servedst
not the
LORD
thy God with joyfulness
, and with gladness of heart, for
the abundance of all things ;
`
Because that
thou hast
not served
Jehovah
thy God with joy
, and with gladness of heart, because
of
the abundance of all things --
Therefore
shalt
thou serve
thine enemies which
the
LORD
shall
send
against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want
of all things :
and he shall
put a yoke of iron upon
thy neck, until
he have
destroyed thee.
thou hast
served
thine enemies ,
whom
Jehovah
sendeth
against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in lack
of all things ;
and he hath
put a yoke of iron on
thy neck, till
He hath
destroyed thee.
The
LORD
shall
bring
a
nation
against thee from far
, from the end of the earth, as swift
as
the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt
not understand;
`Jehovah
doth
lift
up
against thee a
nation,
from afar
, from the end of the earth, as the eagle it
flieth; a nation whose tongue thou hast
not heard,
A nation of
fierce countenance ,
which shall
not regard
the person
of the old
, nor
show
favor
to
the young :
a nation --
fierce of
countenance --
which accepteth
not the face
of the aged
, and
the young doth
not
favour;
And he
shall
eat
the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land
, until
thou be
destroyed :
which also
shall
not leave
thee either
corn, wine, or
oil, or
the
increase of thy
kine
, or
flocks
of thy sheep
, until
he
have
destroyed thee.
and it
hath
eaten
the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground
, till
thou art
destroyed ;
which leaveth
not to
thee corn, new
wine, and
oil, increase of thine
oxen
, and
wealth
of thy flock
, till
it
hath
destroyed thee.
And he
shall
besiege
thee in all thy gates, until
thy high
and
fenced
walls come down, wherein
thou trustedst
, throughout
all thy land :
and
he
shall
besiege
thee in all thy gates throughout
all thy land, which the
LORD
thy God hath given thee .
`
And it
hath
laid
siege
to
thee in all thy gates, till
thy walls come down, the
high
and
the
fenced
ones
in
which
thou art
trusting
, in
all thy land ;
yea,
it
hath
laid
siege
to
thee in all thy gates ,
in
all thy land, which Jehovah
thy God hath given to
thee ;
And thou shalt
eat
the fruit of thine
own
body, the
flesh of thy sons and of
thy daughters ,
which
the
LORD
thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness ,
wherewith
thine enemies shall
distress
thee :
and thou hast
eaten
the fruit of thy
body, flesh of thy sons and thy daughters (whom
Jehovah
thy God hath given to
thee )
, in the siege, and in the straitness with
which
thine enemies do
straiten
thee .
So
that
the man that
is tender among
you
, and very delicate ,
his eye shall
be
evil toward
his brother, and toward
the wife of his bosom, and toward
the remnant of his children
which
he shall
leave:
`
The man who
is tender in
thee
, and who
`is'
very delicate --
his eye is
evil against
his brother, and against
the wife of his bosom, and against
the remnant of his sons
whom
he leaveth,
So
that
he
will
not
give
to any
of them of the flesh of his children
whom he shall
eat:
because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness ,
wherewith
thine enemies
shall
distress
thee in all thy gates.
against
giving
to one
of them of the flesh of his sons
whom he eateth,
because he hath nothing left to
him ,
in the siege, and in the straitness with
which
thine enemy
doth
straiten
thee in all thy gates.
The tender and delicate woman
among
you
, which
would
not adventure
to
set
the sole of her foot upon
the ground for
delicateness and tenderness ,
her eye shall
be
evil toward
the husband of her bosom, and toward
her son, and toward
her daughter,
`
The tender woman
in
thee,
and the
delicate, who
hath
not tried
the sole of her foot to
place
on
the ground because
of
delicateness and because
of
tenderness --
her eye is
evil against
the husband of her bosom, and against
her son, and against
her daughter,
And toward
her young
one
that
cometh out from between her feet, and
toward
her children
which
she shall
bear :
for she shall
eat them for want
of all things secretly
in the siege and straitness ,
wherewith
thine enemy shall
distress
thee in
thy gates.
and against
her seed
which
cometh out from between her feet, even
against
her sons
whom
she doth
bear ,
for she doth
eat them for the
lacking
of all things in secret,
in
the siege and in
the
straitness with
which
thine enemy doth
straiten
thee within
thy gates.
If thou wilt
not observe to do all the words of this law that
are written in this book, that
thou
mayest
fear this glorious
and fearful name ,
THE
LORD
THY GOD ;
`
If thou dost
not observe to do all the words of this law which
are written in this book, to
fear this honoured
and fearful name --
Jehovah
thy God --
Then the
LORD
will
make
thy
plagues
wonderful, and the plagues
of thy seed ,
even
great plagues
, and of
long
continuance
, and sore
sicknesses, and of
long
continuance
.
then hath
Jehovah
made
wonderful thy
strokes
, and the strokes
of thy seed --
great strokes
, and stedfast
, and evil
sicknesses, and stedfast
.
Moreover
he will
bring
upon
thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast
afraid of;
and they shall
cleave
unto
thee .
`And
He hath
brought
back
on
thee all the diseases of Egypt, of
the
presence
of
which thou hast
been
afraid ,
and they have
cleaved
to
thee ;
Also every sickness ,
and every plague,
which is not written in the book of this law ,
them will
the
LORD
bring
upon thee ,
until
thou be
destroyed .
also every sickness and every stroke
which is not written in the book of this law ;
Jehovah
doth
cause
them to
go
up
upon thee till
thou art
destroyed ,
And ye shall
be
left few in
number
, whereas
ye were
as the
stars of heaven
for multitude ;
because thou wouldest
not obey
the voice of the
LORD
thy God.
and ye have
been
left with
few men
, instead
of
which
ye have
been
as stars of the
heavens
for multitude ,
because thou hast
not hearkened
to
the voice of Jehovah
thy God.
And it shall
come
to
pass
, that
as the
LORD
rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you ;
so the
LORD
will
rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring
you to
nought
; and ye shall
be
plucked
from off the land
whither thou goest
to possess it .
`
And it hath
been
, as Jehovah
hath
rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you ,
so doth
Jehovah
rejoice over you to destroy you, and to lay
you waste
; and ye have
been
pulled
away
from off the ground
whither thou art
going
in
to possess it ;
And the
LORD
shall
scatter
thee among all people
, from the one
end of the earth even unto the other
; and there
thou shalt
serve
other gods ,
which neither
thou nor
thy
fathers
have
known, even
wood and stone.
and Jehovah
hath
scattered
thee among all the
peoples
, from the end of the earth even unto the end
of
the
earth
; and thou hast
served
there
other gods which thou hast
not
known, thou
and
thy
fathers
--
wood and stone.
And among these
nations shalt
thou find
no
ease
, neither
shall
the sole of thy foot have
rest:
but
the
LORD
shall
give
thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow
of mind:
`
And among those
nations thou dost
not
rest
, yea,
there
is
no
resting-place
for
the sole of thy foot ,
and
Jehovah
hath
given
to
thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and grief
of soul;
And thy life shall
hang
in doubt
before thee ;
and thou shalt
fear
day
and
night, and shalt
have
none
assurance
of
thy life :
and thy life hath
been
hanging
in suspense
before thee ,
and thou hast
been
afraid
by
night and
by
day
, and dost
not
believe
in
thy life ;
In the morning thou shalt
say
, Would
God
it were even
! and at
even
thou shalt
say
, Would
God
it were morning! for
the fear of thine
heart wherewith
thou shalt
fear
, and for
the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt
see
.
in the morning thou sayest
, O
that
it were evening
! and in
the
evening
thou sayest
, O
that
it were morning! from
the fear of thy
heart ,
with
which
thou art
afraid
, and from
the sight of thine eyes which thou seest
.
And the
LORD
shall
bring
thee into
Egypt again
with ships, by the
way whereof
I spake
unto
thee, Thou shalt
see it no
more
again:
and there
ye shall
be
sold unto
your
enemies for bondmen
and bondwomen
, and no man
shall
buy
you
.
`
And Jehovah
hath
brought
thee back
to
Egypt with ships, by a
way of
which
I said
to
thee, Thou dost
not
add
any
more
to
see it ,
and ye have
sold yourselves
there
to
thine
enemies ,
for men-servants
and for
maid-servants
, and there
is
no buyer
. '
