15“But it shall come about, if you do not obey the Lord your God, to be careful to follow all His commandments and His statutes which I am commanding you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

16“Cursed will you be in the city, and cursed will you be in the country.

17“Cursed will be your basket and your kneading bowl.

18“Cursed will be the children of your womb, the produce of your ground, the newborn of your herd, and the offspring of your flock.

19“Cursed will you be when you come in, and cursed will you be when you go out.

20“The Lord will send against you curses, panic, and rebuke, in everything you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have abandoned Me. 21The Lord will make the plague cling to you until He has eliminated you from the land where you are entering to take possession of it. 22The Lord will strike you with consumption, inflammation, fever, feverish heat, and with the sword, with blight, and with mildew, and they will pursue you until you perish. 23The heaven which is over your head shall be bronze, and the earth which is under you, iron. 24The Lord will make the rain of your land powder and dust; from heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed.

25“The Lord will cause you to be defeated by your enemies; you will go out one way against them, but you will flee seven ways from their presence, and you will be an example of terror to all the kingdoms of the earth.
