Deuteronomy 28

⁴⁶ These curses will be a sign and a wonder upon you and your descendants forever.

⁴⁷ Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joy and gladness of heart in all your abundance,

⁴⁸ you will serve your enemies the LORD will send against you in famine, thirst, nakedness, and destitution. He will place an iron yoke on your neck until He has destroyed you.

⁵⁰ a ruthless nation with no respect for the old and no pity for the young.
