Deuteronomy 28:64-68

64 Then the Lord will scatter you among the nations -- from one end of the earth to the other. There you will serve other gods of wood and stone, gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known.

65 You will have no rest among those nations and no place that is yours. The Lord will make your mind worried, your sight weak, and your soul sad.

66 You will live with danger and be afraid night and day. You will not be sure that you will live.

67 In the morning you will say, "I wish it were evening," and in the evening you will say, "I wish it were morning." Terror will be in your heart, and the things you have seen will scare you.

68 The Lord will send you back to Egypt in ships, even though I, Moses, said you would never go back to Egypt. And there you will try to sell yourselves as slaves to your enemies, but no one will buy you.

Deuteronomy 28:64-68 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.
