Deuteronomy 28:38-39

38 You will plant many seeds in your field. But you will gather very little food. Locusts will eat it up.
39 You will plant vineyards and take care of them. But you won't drink the wine. You won't gather the grapes. Worms will eat them up.

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.
