Deuteronomy 32:24-26

Evangelical Heritage Version

²⁴ They will be sucked dry by hunger and burned up by fever.
I will send them bitter destruction.
Wild animals will sink their teeth into them
    with the burning venom of snakes that crawl in the dust.
²⁵ In the street the sword will take away their children.
Inside the houses terror will fill young man and
    young woman alike,
the nursing child, together with the gray-haired old man.
²⁶ I would have said, “I will cut them to pieces.
I will erase their memory from mankind,”
