Deuteronomy 28:39 in Context — Deuteronomy 28
37 Et tu seras un sujet d’étonnement, de sarcasme et de raillerie, parmi tous les peuples chez qui l’Éternel te mènera.
38 Tu transporteras sur ton champ beaucoup de semence; et tu feras une faible récolte, car les sauterelles la dévoreront.
39 Tu planteras des vignes et tu les cultiveras; et tu ne boiras pas de vin et tu ne feras pas de récolte, car les vers la mangeront.
40 Tu auras des oliviers dans toute l’étendue de ton pays; et tu ne t’oindras pas d’huile, car tes olives tomberont.
41 Tu engendreras des fils et des filles; et ils ne seront pas à toi, car ils iront en captivité.
