Bible. Deuteronomy
028:041 You shall father sons and daughters, but they shall not be yours;
for they shall go into captivity.
028:042 All your trees and the fruit of your ground shall the locust possess.
028:043 The foreigner who is in the midst of you shall mount up above
you higher and higher; and you shall come down lower and lower.
028:044 He shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him:
he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.
028:045 All these curses shall come on you, and shall pursue you,
and overtake you, until you are destroyed; because you didn't
listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, to keep his commandments
and his statutes which he commanded you:
028:046 and they shall be on you for a sign and for a wonder,
and on your seed forever.
028:047 Because you didn't serve Yahweh your God with joyfulness,
and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance
of all things;
028:048 therefore shall you serve your enemies whom Yahweh shall send
against you, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness,
and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron
on your neck, until he have destroyed you.
028:049 Yahweh will bring a nation against you from far, from the end
of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language
you shall not understand;
028:050 a nation of fierce facial expressions, that shall not regard
the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,
028:051 and shall eat the fruit of your livestock, and the fruit of
your ground, until you are destroyed; that also shall not leave
you grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of your livestock,
or the young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish.
028:052 They shall besiege you in all your gates, until your high
and fortified walls come down, in which you trusted,
throughout all your land; and they shall besiege you in all
your gates throughout all your land, which Yahweh your God
has given you.
028:053 You shall eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons
and of your daughters, whom Yahweh your God has given you,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies
shall distress you.
028:054 The man who 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 whom he has remaining;
028:055 so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his
children whom he shall eat, because he has nothing left him,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall
distress you in all your gates.
028:056 The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not adventure
to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness
and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband
