Deuteronomy 28

²¹ The LORD will make the plague cling to you until He has exterminated you from the land that you are entering to possess.

²² The LORD will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, and with blight and mildew; these will pursue you until you perish.

²³ The sky over your head will be bronze, and the earth beneath you iron.

²⁴ The LORD will turn the rain of your land into dust and powder; it will descend on you from the sky until you are destroyed.

²⁵ The LORD will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You will march out against them in one direction but flee from them in seven. You will be an object of horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.
