14But if you don't pay attention to me and do what I tell you;
15if you reject my laws, hate my regulations, and refuse to follow my commandments, and consequently break my agreement,
16then this is what I am going to do to you: I will make you panic, and suffer from diseases like tuberculosis and fever that make you blind and drain your life away. It will be pointless for you to sow seed in your fields because your enemies will eat the harvest.
17I will turn against you, and you'll be defeated by your enemies. People who hate you will rule over you, and you'll run away even when there's no one chasing you!
