23. I will heap disasters upon themand shoot them down with my arrows.
24. I will weaken them with famine,burning fever, and deadly disease.I will send the fangs of wild beastsand poisonous snakes that glide in the dust.
25. Outside, the sword will bring death,and inside, terror will strikeboth young men and young women,both infants and the aged.
26. I would have annihilated them,wiping out even the memory of them.
