Deuteronomy 32:23-25
New English Translation
23 I will increase their[a] disasters;
I will use up my arrows on them.
24 They will be starved by famine,
eaten by plague, and bitterly stung;[b]
I will send the teeth of wild animals against them,
along with the poison of creatures that crawl in the dust.
25 The sword will make people childless outside,
and terror will do so inside;
they will destroy[c] both the young man and the virgin,
the infant and the gray-haired man.
