45 “And all these maledictions+ will certainly come upon you and pursue you and overtake you until you have been annihilated,+ because you did not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God by keeping his commandments and his statutes that he commanded you.+

21 Sinners are the ones whom calamity pursues,+ but the righteous are the ones whom good rewards.+

8 “‘A sword YOU have feared,+ and a sword I shall bring upon YOU,’ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.+
