Q. 21. Did man continue in that state in which God
at first created him?
A. Our first parents were left to the freedom of their own will. Through the temptation of Satan, they transgressed the commandment of God by eating the forbidden fruit. Thus they fell from the state of innocence in which they were created.

Q. 22. Did all mankind fall in that first
transgression?

Romans 5:12 (ESV) Back
12Therefore, just as sin came into the world
through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because
all sinned—
Romans 5:12 (KJ3) Back
12 Because of this, even as sin
entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death passed
to all men, inasmuch as all sinned.
Romans 5:12 (NASB95) Back
12Therefore, just as through one man sin
entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men,
because all sinned—
Romans 5:12 (WEB) Back
12 Therefore as sin entered into the world
through one man, and death through sin; so death passed to all men, because all
sinned.
Romans 5:12–20 (ESV) Back
12Therefore, just as sin came into the world
through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because
all sinned— 13for sin indeed was in the world before the law was
given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. 14Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even
over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type
of the one who was to come. 15But the free gift is not like the
trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace
of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for
many. 16And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin. For the
judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift
following many trespasses brought justification. 17For if, because of one man’s trespass,
death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the
abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the
one man Jesus Christ. 18Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for
all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all
men. 19For as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the
one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous. 20Now the law came in to increase the
trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,
Romans 5:12-20 (KJ3) Back
12 Because of this, even as sin
entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death passed
to all men, inasmuch as all sinned.
13 For sin was in the world
until Law, but sin is not imputed there not being law;
14 but death reigned from Adam
until Moses, even on the ones not sinning on the likeness of Adam’s
transgression, who is a type of the One coming.
15 But not as the deviation, so
also is the free gift. For if by the deviation of the one the many died, much
more the grace of God, and the gift in grace, which is of the one Man,
Jesus Christ, abounded to the many.
16 And the gift is not as
through one having sinned; for indeed the judgment was of one to
condemnation, but the free gift is of many deviations to justification.
17 For if by the deviation of the
one death reigned through the one, much more the ones receiving the
abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by the
One, Jesus Christ.
18 So therefore, as through one
deviation came to all men to condemnation, so also through one effected
righteousness came to all men to justification of life.
19 For as through the one man’s
disobedience the many were constituted sinners, so also through the obedience
of the One the many shall be constituted righteous.
20 But Law came in besides, that
the deviation might abound; but where sin abounded, grace much more abounded,
Romans 5:12–20 (NASB95) Back
12Therefore, just as through one man sin
entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men,
because all sinned— 13for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is
not imputed when there is no law. 14Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until
Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the offense of
Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 15But the free gift is not like the
transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more
did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ,
abound to the many. 16The gift is not like that which came through the
one who sinned; for on the one hand the judgment arose from one transgression
resulting in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many
transgressions resulting in justification. 17For if by the transgression of the one,
death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of
grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One,
Jesus Christ. 18So then as through one transgression there
resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness
there resulted justification of life to all men. 19For as through the one man’s disobedience
the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many
will be made righteous. 20The Law came in so that the transgression would
increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,
Romans 5:12-20 (WEB) Back
12 Therefore as sin entered into the world
through one man, and death through sin; so death passed to all men, because all
sinned.
13 For until the law, sin was in the world; but
sin is not charged when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until
Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a
foreshadowing of him who was to come.
15 But the free gift isn’t like the trespass.
For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of
God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the
many.
16 The gift is not as through one who sinned:
for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift came of many
trespasses to justification.
17 For if by the trespass of the one, death
reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of
grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus
Christ.
18 So then as through one trespass, all men
were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were
justified to life.
19 For as through the one man’s disobedience
many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be
made righteous.
20 The law came in besides, that the trespass
might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly;
1 Corinthians 15:21–22 (ESV) Back
21For as by a man came death, by a man has
come also the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ
shall all be made alive.
1 Corinthians 15:21-22 (KJ3) Back
21 For since death is through
man, also through a Man is a resurrection of dead ones;
22 for as in Adam all die, so also
in Christ all will be made alive.
1 Corinthians 15:21–22 (NASB95) Back
21For since by a man came death, by a man
also came the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ
all will be made alive.
1 Corinthians 15:21-22 (WEB) Back

resurrection of the dead also came by man.

Romans 3:10–20 (ESV) Back
10as it is written: “None is righteous, no,
not one; 11no one understands; no one seeks for God. 12All
have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not
even one.” 13“Their throat is an open grave; they use their
tongues to deceive.” “The venom of asps is under their lips.” 14“Their
mouth is full of curses and bitterness.” 15“Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16in
their paths are ruin and misery, 17and the way of peace they have not known.” 18“There
is no fear of God before their eyes.” 19Now we know that whatever the law says it
speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and
the whole world may be held accountable to God. 20For by works of the law no human being
will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.

19¶ But we know that as many things
as the law says, it says to the ones within the law, so that every
mouth may be stopped, and all the world be accountable to God.
20 Because by works of law not will
be justified all flesh before Him, for through law is full knowledge of
sin.

useless; There is none who does good, There is not even one.” 13“Their
throat is an open grave, With their tongues they keep deceiving,” “The poison

bitterness”; 15“Their feet are swift to shed blood, 16Destruction
and misery are in their paths, 17And the path of peace they have not
known.” 18“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” 19Now we
know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so
that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God; 20because
by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through
the Law comes the knowledge of sin.

you and overtake you till you are destroyed, because you did not obey the voice
of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes that he
commanded you. 46They shall be a sign and a wonder against you and

land, which the Lord your God has given you. 53And you shall eat the fruit of your womb,

she is so delicate and tender, will begrudge to the husband she embraces, to
her son and to her daughter, 57her afterbirth that comes out from between
her feet and her children whom she bears, because lacking everything she will
eat them secretly, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall
distress you in your towns. 58“If you are not careful to do all the
words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this
glorious and awesome name, the Lord your God, 59then the Lord will bring on you and your
offspring extraordinary afflictions, afflictions severe and lasting, and
sicknesses grievous and lasting. 60And he will bring upon you again all the
diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. 61Every
sickness also and every affliction that is not recorded in the book of this
law, the Lord will bring upon you, until you are destroyed. 62Whereas
you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, you shall be left few in number,
because you did not obey the voice of the Lord your God. 63And as the Lord took delight in doing you
good and multiplying you, so the Lord will take delight in bringing ruin upon
you and destroying you. And you shall be plucked off the land that you are
entering to take possession of it. 64“And the Lord will scatter you among all
peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and there you shall serve
other gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known. 65And
among these nations you shall find no respite, and there shall be no resting
place for the sole of your foot, but the Lord will give you there a trembling
heart and failing eyes and a languishing soul. 66Your life shall hang in doubt before you.
Night and day you shall be in dread and have no assurance of your life. 67In the
morning you shall say, ‘If only it were evening!’ and at evening you shall say,
‘If only it were morning!’ because of the dread that your heart shall feel, and
the sights that your eyes shall see. 68And the Lord will bring you back in ships
to Egypt, a journey that I promised that you should never make again; and there
you shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves,
but there will be no buyer.”
Deuteronomy 28:15-68 (KJ3) Back
15¶ And it shall be, if you will
not heed the voice of your God, to take heed to do all His commandments and His
statutes which I am commanding you today, even all these curses shall come on
you and overtake you:
16 You shall be cursed in
the city, and you shall be cursed in the field;
17 your basket and your kneading-trough
shall be cursed;
18 the fruit of your body shall
be cursed; and the fruit of your land, the offspring of your oxen, and the
ewes of your sheep.
19 You shall be cursed when you
come in, and you shall be cursed when you go out.
20 Jehovah shall send a curse on
you, trouble and rebuke in all that you set your hand, all which you
will do, until you are destroyed, or until you quickly perish, because of the
badness of your doings by which you have forsaken Me.
21 Jehovah shall make the plague
cling to you until He has consumed you from off the land where you are going,
to possess it.
22 Jehovah shall strike you with
lung disease and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with extreme
burning, and with the sword, and with blasting and mildew. And they shall
pursue you until you perish.
23 And your heavens over your head
shall become bronze, and the earth under you iron.
24 Jehovah shall make the rain of
your land be dust and ashes. It shall come down on you from the heavens until
you are destroyed.
25 Jehovah shall cause you to be
stricken before your enemies. You shall go out one way against them, and shall
flee seven ways before them. And you shall be a horror to all the kingdoms of
the earth.
26 And your body shall be food to
all the birds of the heavens, and to the beasts of the earth; and there shall
be none terrifying them.
27 Jehovah shall strike you with
the boil of Egypt, and with hemorrhoids, and with the scab, and with itch, of
which you cannot be healed.
28 Jehovah shall strike you with madness,
and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart.
29 And you shall grope at noonday
as the blind grope in darkness. And you shall not prosper in your ways. And you
shall be always oppressed and plundered all the days; and there will be no one
to save.
30 You shall betroth a wife, and
another shall lie with her. You shall build a house, and you shall not live in
it. You shall plant a vineyard, and shall not use its fruit.
31 Your ox shall be slaughtered
before your eyes, and you shall not eat of it. Your ass shall be violently
taken away from be- fore you, and it will not be given back. Your sheep shall
be given to your enemies, and you shall not have to you a
deliverer.
32 Your sons and your daughters shall
be given to another people; and your eyes shall look and fail for them all
the day. And no power will be in your hand.
33 The fruit of your ground, and
all your labor, shall be eaten up by a nation which you do not know. And you
shall always be oppressed and crushed.
34 And you shall be maddened because
of that which you shall see with the sight of your eyes.
35 Jehovah shall strike you with an
evil ulcer on the knees, and on the legs, of which you cannot be healed from
the sole of your foot even to your crown.
36 Jehovah shall cause you and your
king whom you shall raise up over you, to go to a nation which you have not
known, you and your fathers. And you shall serve other gods there, wood and
stone.
37 And you shall be an
astonishment, a proverb and a byword among all the peoples where Jehovah shall
lead you.
38 You shall bring much seed out to
the field, and you shall gather in little; for the locusts will devour it.
39 You shall plant vineyards, and
shall labor, and you shall not gather, nor drink wine; for the worm will devour
it.
40 You shall have olive trees in
all your border, and you shall not anoint with oil; for your olive shall
fall off.
41 You shall father sons and
daughters, and they shall not be with you; for they shall go into captivity.
42 The locust shall possess all
your trees and the fruit of your ground.
43 The sojourner in your midst
shall go above you, higher and higher; and you shall come down, lower and
lower.
44 He shall lend to you, and you
shall not lend to him. He shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.
45¶ And all these curses shall come
on you and shall pursue you and overtake you, until you are destroyed; for you
did not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God, to keep His commandments and
His statutes which He commanded you.
46 And they shall be on you for a
sign and for a wonder, and on your seed forever,
47 because you did not serve
Jehovah your God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart for the abundance
of all things,
48 and you shall serve your enemies
whom Jehovah shall send on you, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and
in lack of all things. And He shall put an iron yoke on your neck until
He has destroyed you.
49 Jehovah shall lift up a nation
against you from afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation
whose tongue you will not understand,
50 a nation fierce of face, who
will not regard the person of the aged, nor show favor to the young.
51 And he shall eat the fruit of
your livestock, and the fruit of your land, until you are destroyed. He shall
not leave to you grain, new wine, and oil, increase of your oxen, or young ones
of your flock, until he has destroyed you.
52 And it will be distress to you
against all your gates, until your high and fortified walls in which you are
trusting come down, in all your land; and it will be distress to you in all
your gates, in all your land which Jehovah your God has given to you.
53 And you shall eat the fruit of
your body, the flesh of your sons and your daughters whom Jehovah your God has
given to you, in the siege, and in the anguish with which your enemies shall
distress you.
54 The man who is tender and
very delicate among you, his eye shall be evil against his brother, and against
the wife of his bosom, and against the remnant of his sons which he leaves,
55 so that he will not give to any
of them of the flesh of his sons that he shall eat, because he has nothing left
to him in the siege, and in the anguish with which your enemies shall distress
you in all your gates.
56 The soft and delicate woman
among you, who would not have ventured to set the sole of her foot on the
ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil against the
husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter;
57 and against her fetus which
comes out from between her feet, even against her sons whom she shall bear. For
she shall eat them in secret, for the lack of everything in the siege and in
the anguish with which the enemy shall distress you within your gates.
58 If you will not take heed to do
all the words of this Law written in this book, to fear this glorious and
fearful Name, Jehovah your God,
59 and Jehovah will make your
plagues remarkable, and the plagues of your children shall be great and
persistent plagues with evil and long-lasting sicknesses.
60 He shall also bring on you all
the diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid; and they shall cling to you.
61 Also every sickness and every
plague which is not written in the book of this Law, Jehovah shall cause
them to come on you until you are destroyed.
62 And you shall be left few in
number, whereas you were as the stars of the heavens for multitude, because you
would not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God.
63 And it shall be, as Jehovah
exulted over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Jehovah shall exult
over you to destroy you, and to lay you waste. And you shall be plucked from
the land you are going to possess.
64 And Jehovah shall scatter you
among all people, from one end of the earth even to the other,
and you shall serve other gods there, wood and stone, which you have not known,
and not your fathers.
65 And among these nations you
shall not find ease, and the sole of your foot shall not have rest. But Jehovah
shall give you there a trembling heart and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind.
66 And your life shall hang
in doubt before you, and you shall fear day and night, and shall have no
assurance of your life.
67 In the morning you shall say, Oh
that it were evening! And in the evening you shall say, Oh that it were
morning! For the fear of your heart with which you fear, and for the sight of
your eyes which you shall see.
68 And Jehovah shall bring you into
Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I said to you, You shall no more
see it again. And you shall be sold to your enemies there, for male slaves and
slave-girls; and there shall not be a buyer.
Deuteronomy 28:15–68 (NASB95) Back
15“But it shall come about, if you do not
obey the Lord your God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes
with which I charge you today, that all these curses will come upon you and
overtake you: 16“Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall
you be in the country. 17“Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading
bowl. 18“Cursed shall be the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground,
the increase of your herd and the young of your flock. 19“Cursed shall you be when you come in, and
cursed shall you be when you go out. 20“The Lord will send upon you curses,
confusion, and rebuke, in all you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and
until you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you
have forsaken Me. 21“The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you
until He has consumed you from the land where you are entering to possess it. 22“The
Lord will smite you with consumption and with fever and with inflammation and
with fiery heat and with the sword and with blight and with mildew, and they
will pursue you until you perish. 23“The heaven which is over your head shall
be bronze, and the earth which is under you, iron. 24“The Lord will make the rain of your land
powder and dust; from heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed. 25“The
Lord shall cause you to be defeated before your enemies; you will go out one
way against them, but you will flee seven ways before them, and you will be an
example of terror to all the kingdoms of the earth. 26“Your carcasses will be food to all birds
of the sky and to the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten
them away. 27“The Lord will smite you with the boils of Egypt
and with tumors and with the scab and with the itch, from which you cannot be
healed. 28“The Lord will smite you with madness and with
blindness and with bewilderment of heart; 29and you will grope at noon, as the blind
man gropes in darkness, and you will not prosper in your ways; but you shall
only be oppressed and robbed continually, with none to save you. 30“You
shall betroth a wife, but another man will violate her; you shall build a
house, but you will not live in it; you shall plant a vineyard, but you will
not use its fruit. 31“Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes,
but you will not eat of it; your donkey shall be torn away from you, and will
not be restored to you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you will
have none to save you. 32“Your sons and your daughters shall be given to
another people, while your eyes look on and yearn for them continually; but
there will be nothing you can do. 33“A people whom you do not know shall eat
up the produce of your ground and all your labors, and you will never be
anything but oppressed and crushed continually. 34“You shall be driven mad by the sight of
what you see. 35“The Lord will strike you on the knees and legs
with sore boils, from which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to
the crown of your head. 36“The Lord will bring you and your king, whom you
set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and
there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone. 37“You shall become a horror, a proverb, and
a taunt among all the people where the Lord drives you. 38“You shall bring out much seed to the
field but you will gather in little, for the locust will consume it. 39“You
shall plant and cultivate vineyards, but you will neither drink of the wine nor
gather the grapes, for the worm will devour them. 40“You shall have olive trees throughout
your territory but you will not anoint yourself with the oil, for your olives
will drop off. 41“You shall have sons and daughters but they will
not be yours, for they will go into captivity. 42“The cricket shall possess all your trees
and the produce of your ground. 43“The alien who is among you shall rise
above you higher and higher, but you will go down lower and lower. 44“He
shall lend to you, but you will not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you
will be the tail. 45“So all these curses shall come on you and pursue
you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you would not obey the
Lord your God by keeping His commandments and His statutes which He commanded
you. 46“They shall become a sign and a wonder on you and your descendants forever. 47“Because
you did not serve the Lord your God with joy and a glad heart, for the
abundance of all things; 48therefore you shall serve your enemies
whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in
the lack of all things; and He will put an iron yoke on your neck until He has
destroyed you. 49“The Lord will bring a nation against you from
afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle swoops down, a nation whose
language you shall not understand, 50a nation of fierce countenance who will
have no respect for the old, nor show favor to the young. 51“Moreover, it shall eat the offspring of
your herd and the produce of your ground until you are destroyed, who also
leaves you no grain, new wine, or oil, nor the increase of your herd or the
young of your flock until they have caused you to perish. 52“It shall besiege you in all your towns
until your high and fortified walls in which you trusted come down throughout
your land, and it shall besiege you in all your towns throughout your land
which the Lord your God has given you. 53“Then you shall eat the offspring of your
own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom the Lord your God
has given you, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy will
oppress you. 54“The man who is refined and very delicate among
you shall be hostile toward his brother and toward the wife he cherishes and
toward the rest of his children who remain, 55so that he will not give even one of them
any of the flesh of his children which he will eat, since he has nothing else
left, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy will oppress you in
all your towns. 56“The refined and delicate woman among you, who
would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness
and refinement, shall be hostile toward the husband she cherishes and toward
her son and daughter, 57and toward her afterbirth which issues from
between her legs and toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them
secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the distress by which
your enemy will oppress you in your towns. 58“If you are not careful to observe all the
words of this law which are written in this book, to fear this honored and
awesome name, the Lord your God, 59then the Lord will bring extraordinary
plagues on you and your descendants, even severe and lasting plagues, and
miserable and chronic sicknesses. 60“He will bring back on you all the
diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid, and they will cling to you. 61“Also
every sickness and every plague which, not written in the book of this law, the
Lord will bring on you until you are destroyed. 62“Then you shall be left few in number,
whereas you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, because you did not obey
the Lord your God. 63“It shall come about that as the Lord delighted
over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so the Lord will delight over you to
make you perish and destroy you; and you will be torn from the land where you
are entering to possess it. 64“Moreover, the Lord will scatter you among
all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there
you shall serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your fathers have not
known. 65“Among those nations you shall find no rest, and there will be no resting
place for the sole of your foot; but there the Lord will give you a trembling
heart, failing of eyes, and despair of soul. 66“So your life shall hang in doubt before
you; and you will be in dread night and day, and shall have no assurance of
your life. 67“In the morning you shall say, ‘Would that it were
evening!’ And at evening you shall say, ‘Would that it were morning!’ because
of the dread of your heart which you dread, and for the sight of your eyes
which you will see. 68“The Lord will bring you back to Egypt in ships,
by the way about which I spoke to you, ‘You will never see it again!’ And there
you will offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves,
but there will be no buyer.”
Deuteronomy 28:15-68 (WEB) Back
15 But it shall come to pass, if you will
not listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all his commandments
and his statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come on
you, and overtake you.
16 You will be cursed in the city, and you will
be cursed in the field.
17 Your basket and your kneading trough will be
cursed.
18 The fruit of your body, the fruit of your
ground, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock will be
cursed.
19 You will be cursed when you come in, and you
will be cursed when you go out.
20 Yahweh will send on you cursing, confusion,
and rebuke, in all that you put your hand to do, until you are destroyed, and
until you perish quickly; because of the evil of your doings, by which you have
forsaken me.
21 Yahweh will make the pestilence cling to
you, until he has consumed you from off the land, where you go in to possess
it.
22 Yahweh will strike you with consumption,
with fever, with inflammation, with fiery heat, with the sword, with blight,
and with mildew. They will pursue you until you perish.
23 Your sky that is over your head will be
bronze, and the earth that is under you will be iron.
24 Yahweh will make the rain of your land
powder and dust. It will come down on you from the sky, until you are
destroyed.
25 Yahweh will cause you to be struck before
your enemies. You will go out one way against them, and will flee seven ways
before them. You will be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the
earth.
26 Your dead body will be food to
all birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth; and there will be no one
to frighten them away.
27 Yahweh will strike you with the boils of
Egypt, with the tumors, with the scurvy, and with the itch, of which you can not
be healed.
28 Yahweh will strike you with madness, with
blindness, and with astonishment of heart.
29 You will grope at noonday, as the blind
gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways. You will only be
oppressed and robbed always, and there will be no one to save you.
30 You will betroth a wife, and another man
shall lie with her. You will build a house, and you won’t dwell in it. You will
plant a vineyard, and not use its fruit.
31 Your ox will be slain before your eyes, and
you will not eat any of it. Your donkey will be violently taken away from
before your face, and will not be restored to you. Your sheep will be given to
your enemies, and you will have no one to save you.
32 Your sons and your daughters will be given
to another people. Your eyes will look, and fail with longing for them all day
long. There will be no power in your hand.
33 A nation which you don’t know will eat the
fruit of your ground and all of your work. You will only be oppressed and
crushed always;
34 so that the sights that you see with your
eyes will drive you mad.
35 Yahweh will strike you in the knees and in
the legs with a sore boil, of which you can not be healed, from the sole of
your foot to the crown of your head.
36 Yahweh will bring you, and your king whom
you will set over yourselves, to a nation that you have not known, you nor your
fathers. There you will serve other gods of wood and stone.
37 You will become an astonishment, a proverb,
and a byword among all the peoples where Yahweh will lead you away.
38 You will carry much seed out into the field,
and will gather little in; for the locust will consume it.
39 You will plant vineyards and dress them, but
you will neither drink of the wine, nor harvest, because worms will eat them.
40 You will have olive trees throughout all
your borders, but you won’t anoint yourself with the oil; for your olives will
drop off.
41 You will father sons and daughters, but they
will not be yours; for they will go into captivity.
42 Locusts will consume all of your trees and
the fruit of your ground.
43 The foreigner who is among you will mount up
above you higher and higher, and you will come down lower and lower.
44 He will lend to you, and you won’t lend to
him. He will be the head, and you will be the tail.
45 All these curses will come on you, and will
pursue you, and overtake you, until you are destroyed; because you didn’t
listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes
which he commanded you.
46 They will be for a sign and for a wonder to
you and to your offspring forever.
47 Because you didn’t serve Yahweh your God
with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all
things;
48 therefore you will serve your enemies whom
Yahweh sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of
all things. He will put an iron yoke on your neck, until he has destroyed you.
49 Yahweh will bring a nation against you from
far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you
will not understand;
50 a nation of fierce facial expressions, that
doesn’t respect the elderly, nor show favor to the young,
51 and they will eat the fruit of your
livestock, and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed. They also
won’t leave you grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of your livestock, or the
young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish.
52 They will besiege you in all your gates,
until your high and fortified walls come down, in which you trusted, throughout
all your land. They will besiege you in all your gates throughout all your
land, which Yahweh your God has given you.
53 You will eat the fruit of your own body, the
flesh of your sons and of your daughters, whom Yahweh your God has given you,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies will distress you.
54 The man who is tender among you, and very
delicate, his eye will be evil toward his brother, toward the wife whom he
loves, and toward the remnant of his children whom he has remaining;
55 so that he will not give to any of them of
the flesh of his children whom he will eat, because he has nothing left to him,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy will distress you in all
your gates.
56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who
would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness
and tenderness, her eye will be evil toward the husband that she loves, toward
her son, toward her daughter,
57 toward her young one who comes out from
between her feet, and toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them
secretly for lack of all things, in the siege and in the distress with which
your enemy will distress you in your gates.
58 If you will not observe to do all the words
of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and
fearful name, YAHWEH YOUR GOD;
59 then Yahweh will make your plagues fearful,
and the plagues of your offspring, even great plagues, and of long duration,
and severe sicknesses, and of long duration.
60 He will bring on you again all the diseases
of Egypt, which you were afraid of; and they will cling to you.
61 Also every sickness and every plague, which
is not written in the book of this law, Yahweh will bring them on you, until
you are destroyed.
62 You will be left few in number, even though
you were as the stars of the sky for multitude; because you didn’t listen to
Yahweh your God’s voice.
63 It will happen that as Yahweh rejoiced over
you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Yahweh will rejoice over you to
cause you to perish, and to destroy you. You will be plucked from the land that
you are going in to possess.
64 Yahweh will scatter you among all peoples,
from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth. There you will serve
other gods, which you have not known, you nor your fathers, even wood and
stone.
65 Among these nations you will find no ease,
and there will be no rest for the sole of your foot; but Yahweh will give you
there a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and pining of soul.
66 Your life will hang in doubt before you. You
will be afraid night and day, and will have no assurance of your life.
67 In the morning you will say, “I wish it were
evening!” and at evening you will say, “I wish it were morning!” for the fear
of your heart which you will fear, and for the sights which your eyes will see.
68 Yahweh will bring you into Egypt again with
ships, by the way of which I told to you that you would never see it again.
There you will sell yourselves to your enemies for male and female slaves, and
nobody will buy you.
