20You will uselessly work very hard to plant seeds, because crops will not grow in the hard soil in your fields, and fruit will not grow on your trees.
21If you continue to oppose me and refuse to heed me, I will cause you to experience disasters again and again, like you deserve to experience because of your sins.
22I will send wild animals to attack you, and they will kill your little children and destroy your cattle. There will be very few of you who will remain alive, with the result that there will be very few HYP people walking on the roads in your country.
23When you experience those things that I do to punish you, if you still do not pay attention to me, and if you continue to oppose me,
24I myself will oppose you, and I will punish you for your sins again and again.
