Deuteronomy 32:24-26

Tree of Life Version

²⁴ Wasted by famine, ravaged by plague
    and pestilence so bitter,
fangs of beasts I’ll let loose on them,
    with venom of creepers in the dust.
²⁵ Outside the sword deals death,
    and inside terror—
to both young men and young women,
    infants, with men of gray hair.
²⁶ I would have said,
‘I will hack them to pieces,
make the memory of them cease from mankind,’
