thee in the land
<0776>

<06680> (8764)

thee this day

thee:

until thou be destroyed
<08045> (8736)_,

and until thou perish
<06> (8800)

quickly
<04118>_;

because
<06440>

of the wickedness
<07455>

of thy doings
<04611>_,

<05800> (8804)

me. {for...: Heb. which thou wouldest do}

thee from off the land

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it.

<05414> (8799)

the rain
<04306>

of thy land
<0776>

powder
<080>

and dust
<06083>_:

from heaven
<08064>

shall it come down
<03381> (8799)

upon thee, until thou be destroyed
<08045> (8736)_.

28:25

thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_:

thou shalt go out
<03318> (8799)

one
<0259>

way
<01870>

against them, and flee
<05127> (8799)

seven
<07651>

ways
<01870>

before
<06440>

them: and shalt be removed

<03978>

unto all fowls
<05775>

of the air

will smite
<05221> (8686)

28:28

The LORD
<03068>

shall smite
<05221> (8686)

thee with madness
<07697>_,

and blindness
<05788>_,

and astonishment
<08541>

of heart
<03824>_:

28:29

And thou shalt grope
<04959> (8764)

at noonday
<06672>_,

as the blind
<05787>

gropeth
<04959> (8762)

in darkness
<0653>_,

and thou shalt not prosper
<06743> (8686)

in thy ways
<01870>_:

and thou shalt be only oppressed
<06231> (8803)

and spoiled
<01497> (8803)

evermore
<03117>_,

and no man shall save
<03467> (8688)

[thee].

28:30

Thou shalt betroth
<0781> (8762)

a wife
<0802>_,

and another
<0312>

man
<0376>

shall lie
<07901> (8799) (8675) <07693> (8799)

with her: thou shalt build
<01129> (8799)

an house
<01004>_,

and thou shalt not dwell
<03427> (8799)

therein: thou shalt plant
<05193> (8799)

a vineyard
<03754>_,

and shalt not gather the grapes
<02490> (8762)

thereof. {gather...: Heb. profane, or, use it as common meat}

28:31

Thine ox
<07794>

[shall be] slain
<02873> (8803)

before thine eyes
<05869>_,

and thou shalt not eat
<0398> (8799)

thereof: thine ass
<02543>

[shall be] violently taken away
<01497> (8803)

from before thy face
<06440>_,

and shall not be restored
<07725> (8799)

to thee: thy sheep
<06629>

[shall be] given
<05414> (8803)

unto thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and thou shalt have none to rescue
<03467> (8688)

[them]. {shall not...: Heb. shall not return to thee}

28:32

Thy sons
<01121>

and thy daughters
<01323>

[shall be] given
<05414> (8803)

unto another
<0312>

people
<05971>_,

and thine eyes
<05869>

shall look
<07200> (8802)_,

and fail
<03616>

[with longing] for them all the day
<03117>

long: and [there shall be] no might
<0410>

in thine hand
<03027>_.

28:33

The fruit
<06529>

of thy land
<0127>_,

and all thy labours
<03018>_,

shall a nation
<05971>

which thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

not eat up
<0398> (8799)_;

and thou shalt be only oppressed
<06231> (8803)

and crushed
<07533> (8803)

alway
<03117>_:

28:34

So that thou shalt be mad
<07696> (8794)

for the sight
<04758>

of thine eyes
<05869>

which thou shalt see
<07200> (8799)_.

28:35

The LORD
<03068>

shall smite
<05221> (8686)

thee in the knees
<01290>_,

and in the legs
<07785>_,

with a sore
<07451>

botch
<07822>

that cannot
<03201> (8799)

be healed
<07495> (8736)_,

from the sole
<03709>

of thy foot
<07272>

unto the top of thy head
<06936>_.

28:36

The LORD
<03068>

shall bring
<03212> (8686)

thee, and thy king
<04428>

which thou shalt set
<06965> (8686)

over thee, unto a nation
<01471>

which neither thou nor thy fathers
<01>

have known
<03045> (8804)_;

and there shalt thou serve
<05647> (8804)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

wood
<06086>

and stone
<068>_.

28:37

And thou shalt become an astonishment
<08047>_,

a proverb
<04912>_,

and a byword
<08148>_,

among all nations
<05971>

whither the LORD
<03068>

shall lead
<05090> (8762)

thee.

28:38

Thou shalt carry
<03318> (0)

much
<07227>

seed
<02233>

out
<03318> (8686)

into the field
<07704>_,

and shalt gather
<0622> (0)

[but] little
<04592>

in
<0622> (8799)_;

for the locust
<0697>

shall consume
<02628> (8799)

it.

28:39

Thou shalt plant
<05193> (8799)

vineyards
<03754>_,

and dress
<05647> (8804)

[them], but shalt neither drink
<08354> (8799)

[of] the wine
<03196>_,

nor gather
<0103> (8799)

[the grapes]; for the worms
<08438>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

them.

28:40

Thou shalt have olive trees
<02132>

throughout all thy coasts
<01366>_,

but thou shalt not anoint
<05480> (8799)

[thyself] with the oil
<08081>_;

for thine olive
<02132>

shall cast
<05394> (8799)

[his fruit].

28:41

Thou shalt beget
<03205> (8686)

sons
<01121>

and daughters
<01323>_,

but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go
<03212> (8799)

into captivity
<07628>_.

{thou shalt not...: Heb. they shall not be thine}

28:42

All thy trees
<06086>

and fruit
<06529>

of thy land
<0127>

shall the locust
<06767>

consume
<03423> (8762)_.

{consume: or, possess}

28:43

The stranger
<01616>

that [is] within
<07130>

thee shall get up
<05927> (8799)

above thee very
<04605>

high
<04605>_;

and thou shalt come down
<03381> (8799)

very
<04295>

low
<04295>_.

28:44

He shall lend
<03867> (8686)

to thee, and thou shalt not lend
<03867> (8686)

to him: he shall be the head
<07218>_,

and thou shalt be the tail
<02180>_.

28:45

Moreover all these curses
<07045>

shall come
<0935> (8804)

upon thee, and shall pursue
<07291> (8804)

thee, and overtake
<05381> (8689)

thee, till thou be destroyed
<08045> (8736)_;

because thou hearkenedst
<08085> (8804)

not unto the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

his commandments
<04687>

and his statutes
<02708>

which he commanded
<06680> (8765)

thee:

28:46

And they shall be upon thee for a sign
<0226>

and for a wonder
<04159>_,

and upon thy seed
<02233>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

28:47

Because thou servedst
<05647> (8804)

not the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

with joyfulness
<08057>_,

and with gladness
<02898>

of heart
<03824>_,

for the abundance
<07230>

of all [things];

28:48

Therefore shalt thou serve
<05647> (8804)

thine enemies
<0341> (8802)

which the LORD
<03068>

shall send
<07971> (8762)

against thee, in hunger
<07458>_,

and in thirst
<06772>_,

and in nakedness
<05903>_,

and in want
<02640>

of all [things]: and he shall put
<05414> (8804)

a yoke
<05923>

of iron
<01270>

upon thy neck
<06677>_,

until he have destroyed
<08045> (8687)

thee.

28:49

The LORD
<03068>

shall bring
<05375> (8799)

a nation
<01471>

against thee from far
<07350>_,

from the end
<07097>

of the earth
<0776>_,

[as swift] as the eagle
<05404>

flieth
<01675> (8799)_;

a nation
<01471>

whose tongue
<03956>

thou shalt not understand
<08085> (8799)_;

{understand: Heb. hear}

28:50

A nation
<01471>

of fierce
<05794>

countenance
<06440>_,

which shall not regard
<05375> (8799)

the person
<06440>

of the old
<02205>_,

nor shew favour
<02603> (8799)

to the young
<05288>_:

{of fierce...: Heb. strong of face}

28:51

And he shall eat
<0398> (8804)

the fruit
