Deuteronomy 28:23 in Context — Deuteronomy 28

21 Jehová hará que se te pegue mortandad, hasta que te consuma de la tierra á la cual entras para poseerla.

22 Jehová te herirá de tisis, y de fiebre, y de ardor, y de calor, y de cuchillo, y de calamidad repentina, y con añublo; y perseguirte han hasta que perezcas.

23 Y tus cielos que están sobre tu cabeza, serán de metal; y la tierra que está debajo de ti, de hierro.

24 Dará Jehová por lluvia á tu tierra polvo y ceniza: de los cielos descenderán sobre ti hasta que perezcas.

25 Jehová te entregará herido delante de tus enemigos: por un camino saldrás á ellos, y por siete caminos huirás delante de ellos: y serás sacudido á todos los reinos de la tierra.
