¹⁸ And if in spite of all this you still will not listen and be obedient to Me, then I will chastise and discipline you seven times more for your sins.

¹⁹ And I will break and humble your pride in your power, and I will make your heavens as iron [yielding no answer, no blessing, no rain] and your earth [as sterile] as brass.^(A)

²⁰ And your strength shall be spent in vain, for your land shall not yield its increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.
