Deuteronomy 28:66-68

Contemporary English Version

⁶⁶ You will live in constant fear of death. ⁶⁷ Each morning you will wake up to such terrible sights that you will say, “I wish it were night!” But at night you will be terrified and say, “I wish it were day!”

⁶⁸ I told you never to go back to Egypt. But now the Lord himself will load you on ships and send you back. Then you will even try to sell yourselves as slaves, but no one will be interested.
