Deuteronomy 28:16 in Context — Deuteronomy 28

14 et que tu ne te détourneras ni à droite ni à gauche de tous les commandements que je vous donne aujourd’hui, pour aller après d’autres dieux et pour les servir.

15 Mais si tu n’obéis point à la voix de l’Éternel, ton Dieu, si tu n’observes pas et ne mets pas en pratique tous ses commandements et toutes ses lois que je te prescris aujourd’hui, voici toutes les malédictions qui viendront sur toi et qui seront ton partage:

16 Tu seras maudit dans la ville, et tu seras maudit dans les champs.

17 Ta corbeille et ta huche seront maudites.

18 Le fruit de tes entrailles, le fruit de ton sol, les portées de ton gros et de ton menu bétail, toutes ces choses seront maudites.
