61 Every sickness also, and every affliction which is not recorded in the book of this law, YHVH will bring upon you, until you are destroyed.
62 Whereas you were as the stars of the heavens for multitude, you shall be left few in number; because you did not obey the voice of YHVH, your god,
63 And as YHVH took delight in doing you good and multiplying you, so YHVH will take delight in bringing ruin upon you and destroying you; and you shall be plucked off the land which you are entering to take possession of it.
64 And YHVH 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.
65 And among these nations you shall find no ease, and there shall be no rest for the sole of your foot; but YHVH will give you there a trembling heart, and failing eyes, and a languishing soul;
66 your life shall hang in doubt before you; night and day you shall be in dread, and have no assurance of your life.
67 In the morning you shall say, 'Would it were evening!' and at evening you shall say, 'Would it were morning!' because of the dread which your heart shall fear, and the sights which your eyes shall see.
68 And YHVH will bring you back in ships to Egypt, a journey which 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 no man will buy you."
On the literal level, this chapter gives us excellent motivation to follow the laws of YHVH. And, on a metaphysical level, the message is the same. Our only ultimate joy comes from obedience to Divine Law.
