Deuteronomy 28:28-30

The Voice

²⁸     The Eternal will afflict you
        with madness and blindness and confusion.
²⁹     As you try to figure out which way to go in life,
        you’ll be groping around the way a blind person gropes in the darkness,
        even in the middle of the day.
    You’ll never find your way, and you’ll never be prosperous.
        You’ll be exploited and robbed all the time, and no one will rescue you.
³⁰     You’ll get engaged to a woman, but another man will violate her.
        You’ll build a house but never live in it.
        You’ll plant a vineyard but never enjoy its fruit.
