Key Passages
They will not labor in vainor bear children doomed to disaster;for they will be a people blessed by the LORD—they and their descendants with them.
I will make their widows more numerousthan the sand of the sea.I will bring a destroyer at noonagainst the mothers of young men.I will suddenly bring upon themanguish and dismay.
then this is what I will do to you: I will bring upon you sudden terror, wasting disease, and fever that will destroy your sight and drain your life. You will sow your seed in vain, because your enemies will eat it.
So He ended their days in futility,and their years in sudden terror.
