1And it shall come to pass if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God to keep [and] to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all the Gentiles of the earth; 2and all these blessings shall come upon thee and overtake thee when thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. 3Blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the city and blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the field. 4Blessed [shall] be the fruit of thy body and the fruit of thy ground and the fruit of thy beasts, the increase of thy cows, and the flocks of thy sheep. 5Blessed [shall be] thy basket and thy store. 6Blessed [shalt] thou [be] when thou comest in, and blessed [shalt] thou [be] when thou goest out. 7The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face; they shall come out against thee one way and flee before thee seven ways. 8The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God gives thee. 9The LORD shall confirm thee as his holy people, as he has sworn unto thee, when thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God and walk in his ways. 10And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD, and they shall be afraid of thee. 11And the LORD shall cause thee to have good in abundance in the fruit of thy body and in the fruit of thy beasts and in the fruit of thy ground, upon the land which the LORD swore unto thy fathers to give thee. 12The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven, to give the rain unto thy land in its season and to bless all the work of thine hand. And thou shalt lend unto many Gentiles, and thou shalt not borrow. 13And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail, and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath, when thou shalt hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to keep them and to fulfill [them]. 14And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day [to] the right hand or [to] the left, to go after other gods to serve them. 15And it shall come to pass if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep, to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee today, that all these curses shall come upon thee and overtake thee. 16Cursed [shalt] thou [be] in the city, and cursed [shalt] thou [be] in the field. 17Cursed [shall] be thy basket and thy store. 18Cursed [shall] be the fruit of thy body and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy cows and the flocks of thy sheep. 19Cursed [shalt] thou [be] when thou comest in, and cursed [shalt] thou [be] when thou goest out. 20The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, destruction and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand to do, until thou art destroyed and perish quickly because of the wickedness of thy doings, by which thou hast forsaken me. 21The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee until he has consumed thee from off the land into which thou dost enter to inherit it. 22The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption and with a fever and with an inflammation and with an extreme burning and with the sword and with blight and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish. 23And thy heavens which [are] over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee [shall be] iron. 24The LORD shall make the rain of thy land dust and ashes; from the heavens it shall come down upon thee, until thou art destroyed. 25The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies; thou shalt go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them and shalt be an object of trembling unto all the kingdoms of the earth. 26And thy carcase shall be food unto all fowls of the air and unto the beasts of the earth, and [there shall be] no one to frighten [them] away. 27The LORD will smite thee with the boil of Egypt and with the hemorrhoids and with the scab and with the itch, of which thou canst not be healed. 28The LORD shall smite thee with madness and blindness and astonishment of heart. 29And thou shalt grope at noonday as the blind grope in the darkness, and thou shalt not be prospered in thy ways; and thou shalt only be oppressed and spoiled all the days, and [there shall be] no one to save [thee]. 30Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her; thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell therein; thou shalt plant a vineyard and shalt not gather the grapes thereof. 31Thine ox [shall be] slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof; thine ass [shall be] violently taken away from before thy face and shall not be restored to thee; thy sheep [shall be] given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have no one to rescue [them]. 32Thy sons and thy daughters [shall be] given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look and fail [with longing] for them all the day long; and [there shall be] no strength in thine hand. 33The fruit of thy land and all thy labours shall a people which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt only be oppressed and crushed all the days. 34So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. 35The LORD shall smite thee in the knees and in the legs with an evil boil that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head. 36The LORD shall bring thee and thy king which thou shalt set over thee unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, and there shalt thou serve other gods, [even] wood and stone. 37And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword among all nations where the LORD shall carry thee away. 38Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field and shalt gather [but] little in, for the locust shall consume it. 39Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress [them], but shalt neither drink [of] the wine nor gather [the grapes], for the worms shall eat them. 40Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint [thyself] with the oil; for thine olive shall fall. 41Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity. 42All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume. 43The stranger that [is] in the midst of thee shall get up above thee very high, and thou shalt come down very low. 44He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him; he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail. 45Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee and shall pursue thee and overtake thee until thou art destroyed because thou shalt not have attended unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee; 46and they shall be in thee for a sign and for a wonder, and in thy seed for ever. 47Because thou didst not serve the LORD thy God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all [things]; 48therefore, thou shalt serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger and in thirst and in nakedness and in lack of all [things]; and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck until he has destroyed thee. 49The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from afar, from the end of the earth, [as swift] as the eagle flies, a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand, 50a nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old nor show favour to the young; 51and he shall eat the fruit of thy beast and the fruit of thy land until thou art destroyed, which [also] shall not leave thee [either] grain, wine, or oil, [or] the increase of thy cows or flocks of thy sheep until he has destroyed thee. 52And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates until thy high and fenced walls come down, in which thou dost trust, throughout all thy land; and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God has given thee. 53And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God has given thee, in the siege and in the straitness with which thine enemies shall distress thee. 54The man [that] is tender among you and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother and toward the wife of his bosom and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave, 55so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he shall have nothing left him in the siege and in the straitness with which thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. 56The tender and delicate woman among you who would not venture to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom and toward her son and toward her daughter 57and toward her young one that comes out from between her feet and toward her children which she shall bear, for she shall eat them for want of all [things] secretly in the siege and straitness with which thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates, 58if thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book that thou may fear this glorious and fearful name; I AM thy God. 59Then the LORD will augment thy plagues wonderfully, and the plagues of thy seed, [even] great plagues and of long continuance, and evil sicknesses and of long continuance. 60Moreover, he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of, and they shall cleave unto thee. 61Also every sickness and every plague, which [is] not written in the book of this law, the LORD will bring upon thee until thou art destroyed. 62And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude, because thou would not hear the voice of the LORD thy God. 63And it shall come to pass [that] as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to cause you to perish and to destroy you; and ye shall be plucked from off the land into which thou dost enter in to inherit it. 64And the LORD shall scatter thee among all the peoples from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, [even] wood and stone. 65Neither shalt thou find rest among these Gentiles, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest; but there the LORD shall give thee a trembling heart and failing of eyes and sorrow of soul; 66and thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night and shalt have no assurance of thy life. 67In the morning thou shalt say, I wish it were evening, and in the evening thou shalt say, I wish it were morning! For the fear of thine heart with which thou shalt fear and for the that which thine eyes shall see. 68And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again in ships by the way of which I spoke unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again; and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and there shall be no one to buy [you].:
