^{16 Ref} I also do this to you, and I have appointed over you trouble, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and your seed in vain ye have sowed, and your enemies have eaten it;

^{23 Ref} `And if by these ye are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me `in' opposition,

^{24 Ref} then I have walked -- I also -- with you in opposition, and have smitten you, even I, seven times for your sins;

^{25 Ref} and I have brought in on you a sword, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and ye have been gathered unto your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and ye have been given into the hand of an enemy.

^{26 Ref} `In My breaking to you the staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and ye have eaten, and are not satisfied.

^{28 Ref} then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have chastised you, even I, seven times for your sins.

^{31 Ref} and I have made your cities a waste, and have made desolate your sanctuaries, and I smell not at your sweet fragrances;

^{32 Ref} and I have made desolate the land, and your enemies, who are dwelling in it, have been astonished at it.
