³⁶ Jehovah will bring thee, and thy king whom thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation that neither thou nor thy fathers have known, and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.

³⁷ And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples whither Jehovah shall lead thee.

³⁸ Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall devour it.
