Deuteronomy 28:49 in Context — Deuteronomy 28

47 Por cuanto no serviste á Jehová tu Dios con alegría y con gozo de corazón, por la abundancia de todas las cosas;

48 Servirás por tanto á tus enemigos que enviare Jehová contra ti, con hambre y con sed y con desnudez, y con falta de todas las cosas; y él pondrá yugo de hierro sobre tu cuello, hasta destruirte.

49 Jehová traerá sobre ti gente de lejos, del cabo de la tierra, que vuele como águila, gente cuya lengua no entiendas;

50 Gente fiera de rostro, que no tendrá respeto al anciano, ni perdonará al niño:

51 Y comerá el fruto de tu bestia y el fruto de tu tierra, hasta que perezcas: y no te dejará grano, ni mosto, ni aceite, ni la cría de tus vacas, ni los rebaños de tus ovejas, hasta destruirte.
