20
The Lord will send you curses, confusion, and punishment in everything you do. You will be destroyed and suddenly ruined because you did wrong when you left him.
21
The Lord will give you terrible diseases and destroy you from the land you are going to take.
22
The Lord will punish you with disease, fever, swelling, heat, lack of rain, plant diseases, and mildew until you die.
23
The sky above will be like bronze, and the ground below will be like iron.
24
The Lord will turn the rain into dust and sand, which will fall from the skies until you are destroyed.
25
The Lord will help your enemies defeat you. You will attack them from one direction, but you will run from them in seven directions. And you will become a thing of horror among all the kingdoms on earth.
26
Your dead bodies will be food for all the birds and wild animals, and there will be no one to scare them away.
27
The Lord will punish you with boils like those the Egyptians had. You will have bad growths, sores, and itches that can't be cured.
28
The Lord will give you madness, blindness, and a confused mind.
29
You will have to feel around in the daylight like a blind person. You will fail in everything you do. People will hurt you and steal from you every day, and no one will save you.
30
You will be engaged to a woman, but another man will force her to have sexual relations with him. You will build a house, but you will not live in it. You will plant a vineyard, but you will not get its grapes.
