Deuteronomy 28:66 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 28:66

And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee
Whether it shall be spared or not by the enemy:

and thou shalt fear day and night;
being in continual dread of being killed:

and shalt have none assurance of thy life;
of its being continued a moment scarcely, but live in constant fear and expectation of its being taken away.

Deuteronomy 28:66 In-Context

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.
