Deuteronomy 28:57-59
1599 Geneva Bible
57 And at her [a]afterbirth (that shall come out from between her feet) and at her children, which she shall bear: for when all things lack, she shall eat them secretly, during the siege and straightness wherewith thine enemy shall besiege thee in thy cities.
58 ¶ If thou wilt not keep and do [b]all the words of the Law (that are written in this book) and fear this glorious and fearful Name, THE LORD THY GOD,
59 Then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore diseases and of long durance.
