and if you do not turn aside from any of the words that I am commanding you today, either to the right or to the left, following other gods to serve them.
15
But if you will not obey the Lord your God by diligently observing all his commandments and decrees, which I am commanding you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:
16
Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field.
17
Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
18
Cursed shall be the fruit of your womb, the fruit of your ground, the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock.
19
Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out.
20
The Lord will send upon you disaster, panic, and frustration in everything you attempt to do, until you are destroyed and perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken me.
21
The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you until it has consumed you off the land that you are entering to possess.
22
The Lord will afflict you with consumption, fever, inflammation, with fiery heat and drought, and with blight and mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish.
23
The sky over your head shall be bronze, and the earth under you iron.
24
The Lord will change the rain of your land into powder, and only dust shall come down upon you from the sky until you are destroyed.
