And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slainbefore your enemies : they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
18
And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven timesmore for your sins.
19
And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
20
And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the landyield their fruits.
21
And if ye walkcontrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven timesmoreplagues upon you according to your sins.
22
I will also sendwildbeasts among you, which shall rob you of your children , and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number ; and your high ways shall be desolate .
23
And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walkcontrary unto me;
24
Then will I also walkcontrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
25
And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered togetherwithin your cities, I will send the pestilenceamong you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy .
26
And when I have broken the staff of your bread,tenwomen shall bake your bread in oneoven, and they shall deliver you your breadagain by weight: and ye shall eat , and not be satisfied .
27
And if ye will not for all thishearken unto me, but walkcontrary unto me;
