Deuteronomy 28:38-39

38 You will plant much seed in your field, but your harvest will be small, because locusts will eat the crop.
39 You will plant vineyards and work hard in them, but you will not pick the grapes or drink the wine, because the worms will eat them.

Deuteronomy 28:38-39 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO DEUTERONOMY 28

In this chapter Moses enlarges on the blessings and the curses which belong, the one to the doers, the other to the transgressors of the law; the blessings, De 28:1-14; the curses, some of which concern individual persons, others the whole nation and body of people, and that both under the former and present dispensations, and which had their fulfilment in their former captivities, and more especially in their present dispersion, De 28:15-68.
