Deuteronomy 28:10-25 Amplified Bible (AMP)

10. And all people of the earth shall see that you are called by the name [and in the presence of] the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you.

11. And the Lord shall make you have a surplus of prosperity, through the fruit of your body, of your livestock, and of your ground, in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you.

12. The Lord shall open to you His good treasury, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.

13. And the Lord shall make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you this day and are watchful to do them.

14. And you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

15. But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God, being watchful to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command you this day, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:

16. Cursed shall you be in the city and cursed shall you be in the field.

17. Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading trough.

18. Cursed shall be the fruit of your body, of your land, of the increase of your cattle and the young of your sheep.

19. Cursed shall you be when you come in and cursed shall you be when you go out.

20. The Lord shall send you curses, confusion, and rebuke in every enterprise to which you set your hand, until you are destroyed, perishing quickly because of the evil of your doings by which you have forsaken me [Moses and God as one].

21. The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you until He has consumed you from the land into which you go to possess.

22. The Lord will smite you with consumption, with fever and inflammation, fiery heat, sword and drought, blasting and mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish.

23. The heavens over your head shall be brass and the earth under you shall be iron.

24. The Lord shall make the rain of your land powdered soil and dust; from the heavens it shall come down upon you until you are destroyed.

25. The Lord shall cause you to be struck down before your enemies; you shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them, and you shall be tossed to and fro and be a terror among all the kingdoms of the earth. [Fulfilled in II Chron. 29:8.]
