Deuteronomy 28:36-38

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁶ When you choose a king for yourselves, the Lord will send you and him away to a foreign country. It will be a place that neither you nor your ancestors have ever heard about. There you will serve gods that people have made from stone and wood. ³⁷ The Lord will send you away to live among foreign people. When they see what has happened to you, they will all see that it is terrible. They will tell stories about you and they will laugh at you.

³⁸ You will plant many seeds in your fields, but you will not have much food at harvest time. Instead, locusts will eat your crops.
