17. And I will set my face against you, and you shall be defeated before your enemies; and your haters shall rule over you, and you shall flee away, but there shall not be anybody who is pursuing you.
18. “ ‘And if in spite of these things you do not listen to me, then I will continue to discipline you seven times for your sins.
19. And I will break the pride of your strength; and I will make your heaven like iron and your land like copper.
20. And your strength shall be consumed in vain; and your land shall not give its produce, and the land’s trees shall not give their fruit.
21. “ ‘And if you go against me in hostility and you are not willing to listen to me, then I will add a plague onto you seven times according to your sins.
22. And I will send wild animals out among you, and they shall make you childless, and they shall cut down your domestic animals, and they shall make you fewer; and your roads shall be desolate.
23. “ ‘And if you do not accept correction from me through these things, but you go against me in hostility,
24. then I myself will also go against you in hostility, and I myself also will strike you seven times for your sins.
25. And I will bring upon you a sword that seeks vengeance for the covenant, and you shall be gathered to your cities; and I will send a plague in your midst, and you shall be given into the hand of an enemy.
