46. They shall become a sign and a wonder on you and your descendants forever.
47. "Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joy and a glad heart, for the abundance of all things;
48. therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in the lack of all things; and He will put an iron yoke on your neck until He has destroyed you.

50. a nation of fierce countenance who will have no respect for the old, nor show favor to the young.
