  9“Yog nej mloog tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv lus thiab ua raws li nws tej kevcai, tus TSWV yuav cia nej ua nws haivneeg raws li nws tau coglus tseg lawm. 10Txhua haivneeg uas nyob thoob ntiajteb yuav pom hais tias, tus TSWV twb xaiv nej los ua nws haivneeg lawm, lawv sawvdaws yuav ntshai nej. 11Tus TSWV yuav pub kom nej muaj tubki, muaj nyuj thiab muaj qoobloo ntau nyob hauv lub tebchaws uas tus TSWV tau coglus rau nej cov yawgkoob hais tias, nws yuav muab rau nej. 12Tus TSWV yuav qhib rooj ntug tso nag los raws caij raws nyoog thiab foom koob hmoov rau tej uas nej ua, nej yuav muaj qiv rau ntau lub tebchaws, tiamsis nej yuav tsis tau mus txais luag. 13Yog nej ua raws li tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv tej kevcai txhua nqe uas kuv qhia rau nej, tus TSWV yuav tsa nej ua ntau haivneeg tus thawj, tsis yog ua tus uas raws luag qab; yog nej ua raws li tus TSWV tej lus uas hnub no kuv qhia rau nej, tej uas nej ua yuav vammeej. 14Tiamsis nej tsis txhob tso tej uas hnub no kuv qhia rau nej tseg, lossis tsis mus pe lwm tus vajtswv.

 15“Yog nej tsis mloog tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv lus, tsis muab siab npuab nws, thiab tsis ua raws li nws tej kevcai uas hnub no kuv qhia rau nej, ces nej yuav raug tej kev phem no:

Tej siv tej npog no yuav los raug nej mus txog hnub uas nej tuag tas. 23Yuav tsis muaj nag los rau nej lub tebchaws, nej lub tebchaws yuav qhuav thiab tawv cuag hlau. 24Tus TSWV yuav tsis tso nag los, tiamsis nws yuav tso hmoov av thiab suabzeb saum ntuj los rau nej, mus txog thaum nej tuag tas.
  25“Tus TSWV yuav cia nej cov yeebncuab tuaj tua yeej nej. Nej yuav ua ib pab mus tua cov yeebncuab, tiamsis nej yuav swb thiab khiav ua sab ua sua, thaum txhua haivneeg thoob ntiajteb pom nej raug tej xwm no lawv yuav ntshai tshee hnyo. 26Thaum nej tuag, tej noog thiab tej tsiaj nruab nrag yuav noj nej lub cev, thiab yuav tsis muaj leejtwg lawv tej tsiaj ntawd kom khiav. 27Tus TSWV yuav ua rau nej mob rwj, ib yam li nws ua rau cov Iziv lawm. Nws yuav ua kom nej lub cev tawg pleb, mob txhab qawj ua paug viag, thiab khaus thoob ibce kho tsis zoo li. 28Tus TSWV yuav ua kom nej lub tswvyim ploj xav tsis tawm dabtsi li; nws yuav ua kom nej qhovmuag fam thiab tsis pom qab ua dabtsi. 29Txawm yog nruab hnub nrig los nej yuav mus kev ib yam li tej neeg digmuag, nej yuav nrhiav tsis tau txoj haukev mus. Tej uas nej ua yuav tsis vammeej. Luag yuav huab nej tej khoom, thiab tsimtxom nej tas mus li, yuav tsis muaj leejtwg tuaj pab nej.
  30“Nej qhaib tau luag ib tug ntxhais los lwm tus yuav tuaj txeeb yuav. Nej ua tau tsev los nej yuav tsis tau nyob. Nej cog tau txiv hmab los nej yuav tsis tau noj. 31Luag yuav muab nej tej nyuj tua tabmeeg nej los nej yuav tsis tau noj. Luag yuav tuaj cab nej tus neesluav tabmeeg nej, thiab tsis xa rov qab rau nej. Luag yuav tuaj muab nej tej yaj tej tshis coj mus pub nej cov yeebncuab, yuav tsis muaj leejtwg tuaj pab nej. 32Luag yuav tabmeeg coj nej tej tub tej ntxhais mus ua cov neeg txawv tebchaws qhev. Nej yuav niaj hnub tos ntsia kev ntsoov, tiamsis tsis pom luag xa nej tej menyuam rov los li. 33Lwm haivneeg yuav tuaj txeeb nej tej qoobloo uas nej ua khwv khwv, kom nej tsis tau noj, nej tseem yuav raug luag tsimtxom thiab quab yuam tas mus li. 34Nej raug luag tsimtxom li ntawd, yuav ua rau nej siab ntsws puas tas. 35Tus TSWV yuav ua kom nej mob rwj ntawm hauvcaug, ntawm txhais ceg, thiab thoob plaws saum taubhau ti hauv kotaw ua paug viag kho tsis zoo li.
  36“Tus TSWV yuav coj nej thiab nej tus vajntxwv mus nyob lwm lub tebchaws uas nej thiab nej cov yawgkoob tsis tau mus nyob dua li; nyob hauv lub tebchaws ntawd, nej yuav pe luag tej vajtswv uas muab ntoo thiab pobzeb ua. 37Cov neeg uas nyob hauv tej tebchaws uas tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv muab nej ntiab mus nyob, yuav xav tsis thoob tej uas tus TSWV ua rau nej; lawv yuav luag nej plig thiab txob thuam nej.
  38“Nej cog qoobloo ntau, tiamsis sau tau tsawg, rau qhov yuav muaj kooj txomfav noj nej tej qoob. 39Nej cog txiv hmab thiab tu zoo heev, tiamsis nej yuav tsis tau de tej txiv thiab tsis tau haus tej cawv txiv hmab, rau qhov kab muab tej hmab noj tas lawm. 40Nej cog txiv ntoo roj thoob nej lub tebchaws, tiamsis nej tsis tau roj, rau qhov tej txiv zeeg tas lawm. 41Nej muaj tub muaj ntxhais, tiamsis lawv yuav tsis nrog nej nyob, rau qhov luag yuav ntes lawv mus. 42Kab yuav noj nej tej ntoo thiab nej tej qoobloo uas nyob hauv nej lub tebchaws tas.
  43“Lwm haivneeg uas nrog nej nyob hauv nej lub tebchaws yuav muaj hwjchim loj zuj zus, tiamsis nej yuav poob hwjchim zuj zus. 44Lawv yuav muaj nyiaj qiv rau nej, tiamsis nej yuav tsis muaj nyiaj qiv rau lawv. Thaum kawg lawv yuav tswjhwm nej.
  45“Tej kev siv kev npog no yuav los raug nej, mus txog thaum nej puastsuaj tas, rau qhov nej tsis mloog tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv lus, thiab tsis ua raws li tej kevcai uas tus TSWV qhia rau nej. 46Tej xwmtxheej no yog lub cim uas qhia txog Vajtswv txojkev txiav txim rau nej thiab nej tej xeebntxwv mus tas ibtxhis li. 47Tus TSWV twb foom koob hmoov rau tej uas nej ua lawm, tiamsis nej tsis muab siab npuab thiab nej tsis muaj lub siab dawb paug pehawm nws. 48Tus TSWV yuav tso nej cov yeebncuab tuaj yuam nej ua lawv qhev. Nej yuav tshaib plab, nqhis dej, liabqab thiab nej yuav ntshaw ib puas tsav yam. Tus TSWV yuav muab tus quab hlau uas hnyav heev los khuam rau nej cajdab, mus txog thaum nws ua rau nej puastsuaj tas. 49Tus TSWV yuav cia lwm haivneeg uas nyob tim qabntuj kawg tuaj tawmtsam nej, yog haivneeg uas nej tsis paub lawv tej lus. Lawv yuav ya ib yam li dav tuaj tawmtsam nej. 50Haivneeg ntawd yuav tsis hlub thiab tsis txuag leejtwg, tsis hais tus laus lossis tus hluas li. 51Lawv yuav noj nej tej tsiaj txhu thiab nej tej qoob tas; nej yuav tuag tshaib. Lawv yuav tsis tseg nej tej nplej, cawv txiv hmab, roj txiv ntoo, nyuj lossis yaj rau nej li, ces nej yuav tuag tas. 52Lawv yuav tuaj tua txhua lub nroog hauv lub tebchaws uas tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv muab rau nej, tej chaw tsomfaj uas siab, thiab tej ntsa yeej uas nej tso siab rau los yuav pob puas tas.
  53“Thaum nej cov yeebncuab tuaj vij nej tej nroog, nej yuav tshaib plab heev, nej yuav noj nej tej menyuam uas tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv muab rau nej. 54-55Txawm yog tus txivneej uas muaj siab dawb siab zoo los thaum cov yeebncuab tuaj vij ntawd, nws yuav tsis hlub thiab tshua leejtwg li, nws yuav noj nws cov menyuam ib tug, nws yuav tsis faib rau nws tej kwvtij, lossis nws tus pojniam uas nws hlub, lossis nws lwm tus menyuam noj li, rau qhov nws tsis muaj zaub mov noj lawm. 56-57Txawm yog tus pojniam uas muaj lub siab dawb siab zoo, thiab muaj txiag npluanuj tsis tau taug kev mus kotaw li los nws yuav ua ib yam li ntawd. Thaum yeebncuab tuaj vij nws lub nroog, nws yuav tshaib plab heev vim tsis muaj zaub mov noj li; nws yuav muab nws tus menyuam mos noj ntsiag to. Nws yuav tsis faib rau nws tus txiv uas nws hlub lossis nws lwm tus menyuam noj li.
  58“Yog nej tsis mloog thiab tsis ua raws li Vajtswv tej lus qhia uas sau rau hauv phau ntawv no, thiab yog nej tsis hwm tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv lub npe uas dawbhuv, 59ces nws yuav tso tej kab mob uas kho tsis zoo thiab tej sub tawg sub ntsha los rau nej thiab nej tej tubki. 60Nws yuav tso tej kab mob phem kawg nkaus uas nej pom thaum nej nyob nram tebchaws Iziv los raug nej; nej yuav kho tsis zoo li. 61Tus TSWV tseem yuav tso ntau yam kab mob thiab sub tawg sub ntsha uas tsis tau teev tseg rau hauv phau ntawv uas sau Vajtswv tej kevcai no los raug nej kom nej puastsuaj tas. 62Txawm yog nej yuav huamvam coob li cov hnubqub saum nruab ntug los tsuav qee leej seem xwb, rau qhov nej tsis mloog tus TSWV uas yog nej tus Vajtswv lus. 63Tus TSWV txaus siab pub rau nej vammeej thiab huamvam coob li cas, nws pom zoo yuav rhuav kom nej puastsuaj li ntawd. Nws yuav ntiab nej tawm hauv lub tebchaws uas nws muab rau nej.
  64“Tus TSWV yuav ntiab nej mus nyob ua sab ua sua rau ntau lub tebchaws thoob qabntuj, nej yuav mus pe luag tej vajtswv uas muab ntoo thiab pobzeb ua uas nej thiab nej cov yawgkoob tsis tau pe dua li. 65Hauv tej tebchaws uas nej mus nyob ntawd, nej yuav tsis muaj kev kaj siab, thiab tsis muaj av ua nej tug li; tus TSWV yuav ua rau nej ntshai tshee hnyo, qaug zog thiab tas kev cia siab. 66Nej lub neej yuav niaj hnub muaj kev ntxhov siab. Nruab hnub hmo ntuj los nej ntshai, thiab tsis paub xyov nej lub neej yuav xaus thaum twg. 67Tej uas nej pom yuav ua rau nej lub siab ntshai tshee hnyo. Thaum sawv ntxov nej xav kom yog tsaus ntuj; thaum tsaus ntuj los nej xav kom yog kaj ntug. 68Txawm yog tus TSWV hais tias nej yuav tsis rov mus nram tebchaws Iziv ntxiv lawm los tus TSWV yuav muab nkoj xa nej mus. Thaum nej mus nyob nrad, nej yuav muab nej muag rau nej cov yeebncuab ua lawv qhev los tsis muaj leejtwg yuav nej li.”

Blessings on Obedience

 1“Now it shall come to pass, ⚓if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God ⚓will set you high above all nations of the earth. 2And all these blessings shall come upon you and ⚓overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God:
  3⚓“Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be⚓in the country.
  4“Blessed shall be⚓the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
  5“Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
  6⚓“Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.
  7“The Lord⚓will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.
  8“The Lord will ⚓command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you ⚓set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
  9⚓“The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. 10Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are ⚓called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be ⚓afraid of you. 11And ⚓the Lord will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. 12The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, ⚓to give the rain to your land in its season, and ⚓to bless all the work of your hand. ⚓You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. 13And the Lord will make ⚓you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them. 14⚓So you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

Curses on Disobedience

 15“But it shall come to pass, ⚓if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and His statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:
  16“Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country.
  17“Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
  18“Cursed shall be the fruit of your body and the produce of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
  19“Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out.
  20“The Lord will send on you ⚓cursing, ⚓confusion, and ⚓rebuke in all that you set your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the wickedness of your doings in which you have forsaken Me. 21The Lord will make the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess. 22⚓The Lord will strike you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with severe burning fever, with the sword, with ⚓scorching, and with mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish. 23And ⚓your heavens which are over your head shall be bronze, and the earth which is under you shall be iron. 24The Lord will change the rain of your land to powder and dust; from the heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed.
  25⚓“The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies; you shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them; and you shall become troublesome to all the kingdoms of the earth. 26⚓Your carcasses shall be food for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and no one shall frighten them away. 27The Lord will strike you with ⚓the boils of Egypt, with ⚓tumors, with the scab, and with the itch, from which you cannot be healed. 28The Lord will strike you with madness and blindness and ⚓confusion of heart. 29And you shall ⚓grope at noonday, as a blind man gropes in darkness; you shall not prosper in your ways; you shall be only oppressed and plundered continually, and no one shall save you.
  30⚓“You shall betroth a wife, but another man shall lie with her; ⚓you shall build a house, but ⚓you shall not dwell in it; you shall plant a vineyard, but shall not gather its grapes. 31Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes, but you shall not eat of it; your donkey shall be violently taken away from before you, and shall not be restored to you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you shall have no one to rescue them. 32Your sons and your daughters shall be given to ⚓another people, and your eyes shall look and ⚓fail with longing for them all day long; and there shall be no strength in your ⚓hand. 33A nation whom you have not known shall eat ⚓the fruit of your land and the produce of your labor, and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually. 34So you shall be driven mad because of the sight which your eyes see. 35The Lord will strike you in the knees and on the legs with severe boils which cannot be healed, and from the sole of your foot to the top of your head.
  36“The Lord will ⚓bring you and the king whom you set over you to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and ⚓there you shall serve other gods—wood and stone. 37And you shall become ⚓an astonishment, a proverb, ⚓and a byword among all nations where the Lord will drive you.
  38⚓“You shall carry much seed out to the field but gather little in, for ⚓the locust shall consume it. 39You shall plant vineyards and tend them, but you shall neither drink of the ⚓wine nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them. 40You shall have olive trees throughout all your territory, but you shall not anoint yourself with the oil; for your olives shall drop off. 41You shall beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be yours; for ⚓they shall go into captivity. 42Locusts shall consume all your trees and the produce of your land.
  43“The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. 44He shall lend to you, but you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.
  45“Moreover all these curses shall come upon you and pursue and overtake you, until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you. 46And they shall be upon ⚓you for a sign and a wonder, and on your descendants forever.
  47⚓“Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joy and gladness of heart, ⚓for the abundance of everything, 48therefore you shall serve your enemies, whom the Lord will send against you, in ⚓hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in need of everything; and He ⚓will put a yoke of iron on your neck until He has destroyed you. 49⚓The Lord will bring a nation against you from afar, from the end of the earth, ⚓as swift as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you will not understand, 50a nation of fierce countenance, ⚓which does not respect the elderly nor show favor to the young. 51And they shall eat the increase of your livestock and the produce of your land, until you are destroyed; they shall not leave you grain or new wine or oil, or the increase of your cattle or the offspring of your flocks, until they have destroyed you.
  52“They shall ⚓besiege you at all your gates until your high and fortified walls, in which you trust, come down throughout all your land; and they shall besiege you at all your gates throughout all your land which the Lord your God has given you. 53⚓You shall eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons and your daughters whom the Lord your God has given you, in the siege and desperate straits in which your enemy shall distress you. 54The sensitive and very refined man among you ⚓will be hostile toward his brother, toward ⚓the wife of his bosom, and toward the rest of his children whom he leaves behind, 55so that he will not give any of them the flesh of his children whom he will eat, because he has nothing left in the siege and desperate straits in which your enemy shall distress you at all your gates. 56The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because of her delicateness and sensitivity, will refuse to the husband of her bosom, and to her son and her daughter, 57her placenta which comes out ⚓from between her feet and her children whom she bears; for she will eat them secretly for lack of everything in the siege and desperate straits in which your enemy shall distress you at all your gates.
  58“If you do not carefully observe all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear ⚓this glorious and awesome name, THE Lord YOUR GOD, 59then the Lord will bring upon you and your descendants ⚓extraordinary plagues—great and prolonged plagues—and serious and prolonged sicknesses. 60Moreover He will bring back on you all ⚓the diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. 61Also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in this Book of the Law, will the Lord bring upon you until you are destroyed. 62You ⚓shall be left few in number, whereas you were ⚓as the stars of heaven in multitude, because you would not obey the voice of the Lord your God. 63And it shall be, that just as the Lord⚓rejoiced over you to do you good and multiply you, so the Lord⚓will rejoice over you to destroy you and bring you to nothing; and you shall be ⚓plucked from off the land which you go to possess.
  64“Then the Lord⚓will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and ⚓there you shall serve other gods, which neither you nor your fathers have known—wood and stone. 65And ⚓among those nations you shall find no rest, nor shall the sole of your foot have a resting place; ⚓but there the Lord will give you a trembling heart, failing eyes, and ⚓anguish of soul. 66Your life shall hang in doubt before you; you shall fear day and night, and have no assurance of life. 67⚓In the morning you shall say, ‘Oh, that it were evening!’ And at evening you shall say, ‘Oh, that it were morning!’ because of the fear which terrifies your heart, and ⚓because of the sight which your eyes see.
  68“And the Lord⚓will take you back to Egypt in ships, by the way of which I said to you, ⚓‘You shall never see it again.’ And there you shall be offered for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you.”
