Deuteronomy 28:38-40

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁸ Thou shalt cast much seed into the ground, and gather little: because the locusts shall consume all.

³⁹ Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and dig it, and shalt not drink the wine, nor gather any thing thereof: because it shall be wasted with worms.

⁴⁰ Thou shalt have olive trees in all thy borders, and shalt not be anointed with the oil: for the olives shall fall off and perish.
