Deuteronomy 28:67
The Scripture
(67) In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
Chapter overview (whole chapter)
Deuteronomy 28 sets before Israel the blessings that will overtake them if they obey the Lord-fruitful fields, flocks, and families, victory, and prominence among the nations-and the curses that will pursue them if they disobey. The curses escalate from disease and famine to a siege so severe that parents will eat their children, ending with Israel being scattered among all peoples and even brought back to Egypt in ships. The chapter stands as a sober warning that obedience brings blessing while persistent disobedience brings ruin.
