Deuteronomy 28:15-19, 22, 45-46

Here’s what will happen if you don’t obediently listen to the Voice of GOD, your God, and diligently keep all the commandments and guidelines that I’m commanding you today. All these curses will come down hard on you: GOD’s curse in the city, GOD’s curse in the country; GOD’s curse on your basket and bread bowl; GOD’s curse on your children, the crops of your land, the young of your livestock, the calves of your herds, the lambs of your flocks. GOD’s curse in your coming in, GOD’s curse in your going out.

GOD will set consumption and fever and rash and seizures and dehydration and blight and jaundice on you. They’ll hunt you down until they kill you.

All these curses are going to come on you. They’re going to hunt you down and get you until there’s nothing left of you because you didn’t obediently listen to the Voice of GOD, your God, and diligently keep his commandments and guidelines that I commanded you. The curses will serve as signposts, warnings to your children ever after.
