15. “But if you disobey the Lord your God and do not faithfully keep all his commands and laws that I am giving you today, all these evil things will happen to you:
16. “The Lord will curse your towns and your fields.
17. “The Lord will curse your corn crops and the food you prepare from them.
18. “The Lord will curse you by giving you only a few children, poor crops, and few cattle and sheep.
19. “The Lord will curse everything you do.
20. “If you do evil and reject the Lord, he will bring on you disaster, confusion, and trouble in everything you do, until you are quickly and completely destroyed.
21. He will send disease after disease on you until there is not one of you left in the land that you are about to occupy.
22. The Lord will strike you with infectious diseases, with swelling and fever; he will send drought and scorching winds to destroy your crops. These disasters will be with you until you die.
23. No rain will fall, and your ground will become as hard as iron.
24. Instead of rain, the Lord will send down duststorms and sandstorms until you are destroyed.
25. “The Lord will give your enemies victory over you. You will attack them from one direction, but you will run from them in all directions, and all the people on earth will be terrified when they see what happens to you.
26. When you die, birds and wild animals will come and eat your bodies, and there will be no one to scare them off.
27. The Lord will send boils on you, as he did on the Egyptians. He will make your bodies break out with sores. You will be covered with scabs, and you will itch, but there will be no cure.
28. The Lord will make you lose your mind; he will strike you with blindness and confusion.
29. You will grope about in broad daylight like a blind person, and you will not be able to find your way. You will not prosper in anything you do. You will be constantly oppressed and robbed, and there will be no one to help you.
30. “You will be engaged to a young woman — but someone else will marry her. You will build a house — but never live in it. You will plant a vineyard — but never eat its grapes.
