Deuteronomy 28:38-40
1599 Geneva Bible
38 Thou shalt carry out much seed into the field, and shalt gather but little in: for the grasshoppers shall destroy it.
39 (A)Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and dress it, but shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes: for the worms shall eat it.
40 Thou shalt have Olive trees in all thy coasts, but shalt not anoint thyself with the oil: for thine olives shall [a]fall.
