Context

14“ ‘But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments,

15and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhors my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant,

16I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away. You will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it.

17I will set my face against you, and you will be struck before your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you will flee when no one pursues you.

18“ ‘If you in spite of these things will not listen to me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.

19I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your sky like iron, and your soil like bronze.

20Your strength will be spent in vain; for your land won’t yield its increase, neither will the trees of the land yield their fruit.
