Leviticus 26:25-26  New English Translation

25 I will bring on you an avenging sword, a covenant vengeance.[a] Although[b] you will gather together into your cities, I will send pestilence among you and you will be given into enemy hands.[c] 26 When I break off your supply of bread,[d] ten women will bake your bread in one oven; they will ration your bread by weight,[e] and you will eat and not be satisfied.
