15 So [a]it will be a disgrace, an object of abuse, a (A)warning, and an object of horror to the nations that surround you when I (B)execute judgments against you in anger, wrath, and raging reprimands. I, the Lord, have spoken. 16 When I send against them the [b]deadly arrows of famine which [c]were for the destruction of those whom I will send to destroy you, then I will also intensify the famine upon you and break off your [d]provision of bread. 17 (C)I will send on you famine and vicious animals, and they will bereave you of children; (D)plague and bloodshed also will pass through you, and I will bring the sword on you. I, the Lord, have spoken.’”
