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.

40 Terás olivas em todo teu termo, mas não te ungirás com o azeite; porque tua azeitona cairá.

41 Filhos e filhas gerarás, e não serão para ti; porque irão em cativeiro.
