Deuteronomy 28:56-58

Expanded Bible

⁵⁶ The most gentle and kind woman among you, so gentle and kind she would hardly even walk on the ground, will ·be cruel [look threateningly] to her husband ·whom she loves [^Lof her lap] and to her son and daughter. ⁵⁷ She will give birth to a baby, but she will plan to eat the baby and ·what comes after the birth itself [the afterbirth; ^Lthat which comes out between her feet]. She will eat them secretly ·while the enemy surrounds the city. Those people will make you starve in all your cities [^L…in the dire position that the siege of your enemies places you; Lam. 2:20].

⁵⁸ Be careful to obey everything in these ·teachings [laws; instructions] that are written in this ·book [scroll]. You must respect the glorious and ·wonderful [awesome] name of the Lord your God,
