Deuteronomy 28:37 in Context — Deuteronomy 28

35 O SENHOR te ferirá com maligna úlcera nos joelhos e nas pernas, sem que possas ser curado: ainda desde a planta de teu pé até o topo de tua cabeça.

36 O SENHOR levará a ti, e a teu rei que houveres posto sobre ti, a nação que não conheceste tu nem teus pais; e ali servirás a deuses alheios, à madeira e à pedra.

37 E serás por confusão, por exemplo e por fábula, a todos os povos aos quais te levará o SENHOR.

38 Tirarás muito semente ao campo, e colherás pouco; porque os gafanhotos o consumirão.

39 Plantarás vinhas e lavrarás, mas não beberás vinho, nem colherás uvas; porque o bicho as comerá.
