Deuteronomy 28
Peshitta Holy Bible Translated Par ▾ 
1And if you will listen to the voice of LORD JEHOVAH your God and you will keep and will do all of his commandments that I command you today, LORD JEHOVAH God will make you higher than all of the nations of the Earth: 2And all these blessings shall come upon you and they shall overtake you when you will listen to the voice of LORD JEHOVAH your God:

3You are blessed in the city; you are blessed in the field.

4Blessed is the fruit of your body and the fruit of your land and the offspring of your animals and the herds of your oxen and the flocks of your sheep.

5Blessed is your basket and your kneading trough.

6You are blessed in your coming in, you are blessed in your going out.

7And LORD JEHOVAH shall hand over your enemies who rise up against you; when defeated before you, they shall come out on one road against you, and by our seven roads they shall flee from before you. 8LORD JEHOVAH shall command blessing in your barns and in everything to which you reach your hand, and he shall bless you in the land that LORD JEHOVAH your God gives to you. 9LORD JEHOVAH shall establish you to himself, the holy people, as He swore to you, if you will keep all of the commandments of LORD JEHOVAH your God, and you will walk in his ways. 10And all of the nations of Earth shall see that the name of LORD JEHOVAH is called upon you and they shall be in awe of you. 11And LORD JEHOVAH shall enrich you for good in the fruit of your body and in the offspring of your livestock and in the fruit of your land, in the land that LORD JEHOVAH swore to your fathers to give to you. 12LORD JEHOVAH shall open to you his good storehouse of Heaven and he shall give the rain of your land in its time and he shall bless all of the works of your hands; you shall lend to many nations and you shall not borrow, and you shall have authority among many nations and they shall not have power with you. 13LORD JEHOVAH shall make you the head and not the tail, and you shall be above and you shall not be beneath, when you will listen to the commandments of LORD JEHOVAH your God that I command you today, and you keep and do them: 14And you shall not turn aside from all of the commandments that I command to you today, not to the right and not to the left, and you shall not go after the gods of the Gentiles and serve them.

15And if you will not hear the voice of LORD JEHOVAH your God and you do not keep and do all of his commandments and his laws that I command you today, all these curses shall come upon you, and they shall overtake you:

16You are cursed in the city, you are cursed in the field.

17Cursed is your basket and your kneading trough.

18Cursed is the fruit of your body and the fruit of your land and the herds of your oxen and the flocks of your sheep.

19You are cursed in your coming in, you are cursed in your going out.

20LORD JEHOVAH shall send upon you ruin and chaos and rebuke in everything which you reach your hand to do, until He will destroy you and until He will end you quickly, because of the wickedness of your works, because you have forsaken me. 21LORD JEHOVAH shall send a plague upon you until He shall destroy you from the land that you enter there to inherit. 22LORD JEHOVAH shall strike you with shock and with scab and with burning and with burning fever and with jaundice and with sword and by wind of parching heat, and they shall pursue you until they destroy you. 23And the Heavens above your head shall be brass and Earth under you, iron. 24LORD JEHOVAH shall give the rain of your land, sand, and dust from Heaven shall come down upon you until He will destroy you.

25LORD JEHOVAH shall break you before your enemies; on one road you shall go out against them and on our seven roads you will run from before them and you shall be a horror to all the Kingdoms of Earth. 26And your corpse shall be food for birds of the sky and for the beasts of Earth and there is no one to chase them away.

27LORD JEHOVAH shall strike you with the abscesses of the Egyptians and with hemorrhoids and with leprosy and with wasting away, so that you cannot be healed. 28LORD JEHOVAH shall strike you with darkness and with blindness and with astonishment of heart: 29And you will be groping at noonday as he who gropes blind in the darkness, and you shall not go up your road ahead; you shall be taken by force and oppressed all of your days and there shall be no one who saves you. 30You will be engaged to a woman and another man will take her; you will build a house and you will not live in it; you will plant a vineyard and you shall not press out from it. 31Your ox will be slaughtered before you and you will not eat of it, and your donkey will be taken captive from you by force and will not return to you; your sheep will be handed over to your enemies and there is none who will save it. 32Your sons and your daughters will be given up to another people and your eyes will see and you will grieve for them all day, and you will not have enough in your hands. 33The fruit of the land and a people that you do not know will eat all your labors, and you will be oppressed and afflicted all of your days. 34And you will be blind from the vision of your eyes that you saw. 35LORD JEHOVAH shall strike you with evil abscesses on your knees and on your legs so that you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot and unto your brain. 36LORD JEHOVAH shall lead you and your King whom you set up over you to a people whom you have not known, you and your fathers, and you shall work there for other gods of wood and of stone. 37And you shall be a horror and a proverb and a mockery in all the nations where LORD JEHOVAH shall scatter you.

38You shall send out much seed in your field and you shall gather little because locusts will eat it. 39You will plant a vineyard and you will cultivate and you will not drink wine, and you will not gather because a worm eats it. 40Olive trees shall be yours in all your borders and you will not anoint with oil, because your olives will fall off. 41You shall beget sons and daughters and they shall not be yours, because they shall depart into captivity. 42The locust shall eat all of your trees and the fruit of your land. 43And the settler who is in you shall be exalted high over you and you shall go down under. 44He shall lend to you and you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head and you shall be the tail.

45All these curses shall come upon you and shall overtake you and shall pursue you until they destroy you, because you have not listened to the voice of LORD JEHOVAH your God and you have not kept his commandments and his laws that He commanded you: 46And they shall be signs and wonders among you and among your seed forever.

47Because you did not work for LORD JEHOVAH your God in joy and in goodness of heart from the abundance of everything; 48And you shall work for your enemies whom LORD JEHOVAH shall send upon you, in hunger and in thirst and in nakedness and in loss of everything, and he shall put a yoke of iron on your neck until He shall destroy you.

49LORD JEHOVAH shall bring upon you a people from a distance, from the ends of the Earth, as a flying eagle, a people whose language you have not heard; 50A people whose face is bold, that is not reverent of the face of Elders and does not show mercy upon youth: 51And it shall eat the offspring of your livestock and the fruit of your land until it shall destroy you, and it shall not leave to you produce or wine or oil or herds of oxen or flocks of sheep until it destroys you. 52And it shall besiege you in all your towns until it breaks down your high and fortified walls upon which you trust in all your land, and it shall besiege you in all your towns in all the land that LORD JEHOVAH your God gives to you. 53And you will eat the fruit of your body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters that LORD JEHOVAH your God gives to you; you will devour them in the siege and in adversity when your enemy afflicts you: 54A man who feasts among you and lives in luxury among you, his eye shall stare at his brother and at the wife of his covenant and the remnant of his children who are left: 55And he shall not give of the flesh of his children that he eats to one of them, because nothing would be left for him in the siege and in the affliction which your enemy inflicts on you in all your towns. 56She who holds feasts among you and lives in luxury who would not put the sole of her foot to stand on the ground, by her daintiness and by her delicateness, her eye shall stare at her husband and at her son and at her daughter, 57At her afterbirth that goes out from between her legs and at her son whom she will bear when she will eat them, when she had nothing in the siege and in the affliction which your enemy will inflict on you in all your towns.

58But keep and do all of the words of this Law that are written in this book and stand in awe of this glorious and awesome Name: LORD JEHOVAH your God; 59And LORD JEHOVAH shall send your plagues and the plagues of your seed, greater plagues and enduring and severe and enduring affliction. 60And he shall bring upon you all the plagues of the Egyptians which you feared in front of them and they shall stick to you. 61And every disease and every plague that is not written in this book of the Law, LORD JEHOVAH shall bring them upon you until He shall destroy you. 62And you shall be left few in number, you who were multiplied as the stars in Heaven, because you have not listened to the voice of LORD JEHOVAH your God. 63And as LORD JEHOVAH rejoiced over you to do good to you and to multiply you, in this way LORD JEHOVAH will rejoice over you when He shall destroy you, and he shall finish you and you shall be removed from the land that you entered to inherit. 64And LORD JEHOVAH shall scatter you into all the nations from the ends of the land and unto the ends of the Earth, and you shall work there for other gods of wood and of stone that you have not known, you or your parents. 65And among those nations you will not be still, and there shall be no rest for the sole of your foot, but LORD JEHOVAH shall give you there a quaking heart and darkness of the eyes and wasting away of the soul: 66And your life shall be hanging from in front of you and you shall be afraid by day and by night and you shall not be confident of your life: 67At dawn you shall say: 'But when is it evening?', and in the evening you shall say: 'But when is it dawn?', from the fear of your heart that you fear, and from the sight of your eyes that you see. 68And LORD JEHOVAH shall return you to Egypt in ships in the way that He said to you, “You shall not continue again to see it”, and you shall be sold there to your enemies as male Slaves and female Slaves, and there is no one who buys.”
