38“You will bring out a great amount of seed to the field, but you will gather in little, because the locust will devour it. 39You will plant and cultivate vineyards, but you will neither drink of the wine nor bring in the harvest, because the worm will eat it. 40You will have olive trees throughout your territory but you will not anoint yourself with the oil, because your olives will drop off prematurely.
