21. Yahweh will cause the plague to cling to you until it consumes you from the land that you are going to, to take possession of it.

22. Yahweh will afflict you with the wasting diseases and with the fever and with the inflammation and with the scorching heat and with the sword and with the blight and with the mildew, and they shall pursue you until you perish.

23. And your heavens that are over your heads shall be like bronze, and the earth that is under you shall be like iron.

24. Yahweh will change the rain of your land to fine dust and to sand; from the heaven it shall come down upon you until you are destroyed.
