Deuteronomy 28:36-38

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁶ The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king, whom thou shalt have appointed over thee, into a nation which thou and thy fathers know not: and there thou shalt serve strange gods, wood and stone.

³⁷ And thou shalt be lost, as a proverb and a byword to all people, among whom the Lord shall bring thee in.

³⁸ Thou shalt cast much seed into the ground, and gather little: because the locusts shall consume all.
