Deuteronomy 28:21-23

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you until it has consumed you off the land that you are entering to possess. ²² The Lord will afflict you with consumption, fever, inflammation, with fiery heat and drought, and with blight and mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish. ²³ The sky over your head shall be bronze, and the earth under you iron.
