¹⁶ then I will do this to you: I will bring on you sudden terror, wasting diseases and fever^(A) that will destroy your sight and sap your strength.^(B) You will plant seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.^(C)

¹⁷ I will set my face^(A) against you so that you will be defeated^(B) by your enemies;^(C) those who hate you will rule over you,^(D) and you will flee even when no one is pursuing you.^(E)

⁶⁵ Among those nations you will find no repose, no resting place^(A) for the sole of your foot. There the Lord will give you an anxious mind, eyes^(B) weary with longing, and a despairing heart.^{(C) 66} You will live in constant suspense, filled with dread both night and day, never sure of your life. ⁶⁷ In the morning you will say, “If only it were evening!” and in the evening, “If only it were morning!”—because of the terror that will fill your hearts and the sights that your eyes will see.^(D)
